'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Awesome pulp SciFi cover from 1968: [link]
In a world... where bikini-clad women hang out with giant ferrets....
It looks like Analog had a decent budget for art. Their cover paintings are usually fairly detailed and high quality. I'm not really sure what is going on here, but the fantasy fan of me approves of giant marmots that play horn instruments.
So, our biggest client has a Saudi Arabia office, and we're doing programming for that office. This office has about 200 people it it, and they have one computer in the whole office that has internet access. (And it's very slow, like dial-up). This internet computer is in a public place, so anyone walking by can see what the user is up to. Apparently, using the internet in Saudi Arabia is a Very Big Deal, so they have to make sure you're not doing anything naughty.
well, the internet is where the porn is, so it must be watched. Although any teenaged boy can tell you trying to see porn through dial up is an exercise in frustration. I mean, additional frustration.
Who's hotter? Jeremy Renner or Timothy Olyphant? Corollary question: who would make a better Snake Plissken?
KURT RUSSELL.
Olyphant.
There is no Snake except for Kurt.
You're gonna get a new Snake. Now, pick.
I'd probably pick Olyphant, although I like him best in a cowboy hat doing a Southern accent.
Not that I will ever go see the remake. ::weeps::
Olyphant by a mile. But Renner looks more well-worn, which could be good for Plissken IF SUCH A TRAVESTY WAS TO BE MADE.
