Christopher REEVE portrayed Superman in 4 motion pictures. George REEVES played him in B&W serials and television, and was untimely portrayed by Ben Affleck.
They made knives available and cheaper to the lowest common denominator of society. Plus easy credit made it possible to order with express shipping! So it's MasterCard's fault too! And the TV stations that broadcast these calls for slaughter!
Don't forget your local/national/international package delivery service for allowing dangerous, dangerous knives to be dropped off at the homes of young, impressionable children. It's called "The Postman Always Rings Twice," not "The Homicidal Maniac Always Rings Twice."
And the parents, such horrid parents, for using knives in front of their children, cutting meat and chicken like so many innocent bystanders.
Home kitchens should have all utensils tethered to the walls like in prisons. I've seen it on TV. I've never heard about anyone getting stabbed in a prison kitchen.
Now how much would you pay? In dollars or the souls of your victims?
I prefer the good old days of clean cut television. Wholesome programming like "Leave It To Beaver." But can anyone help me remember what Beaver's last name was?
IANAL....No matter how many forms you sign, you are legally protected from ever waiving your right to sue.
Putting in a "no sue" clause is merely a formality that you recognize the seriousness of what you are about to do.
I have a company where my participants have to sign a release form. It's really more for our liability insurance. I'll even tell them they can't sign away the right to sue.
It's unfortunate that a staple of American culture has gone in this direction. For years, Mad Magazine was one of the last holdouts to not run ads, but now they do.
Since then, the quality of the humor has dipped significantly, but it's still better than other junk that passes for comedy these days. They're even now recycling classic "Lighter Side Of..." segments in their issues.
Whomever tagged this "nothing of value was lost" needs a history lesson. Mad has its original roots as a satire of horror comics today. Mad Magazine still exists, and so do a lot of your tenets of free speech with comics and video games, because Bill Gaines stood up to those who wanted to censor horror comics, against those who were "thinking of the children." Does that sound familiar to anyone else?
60 Minutes has several profiles on the writing staff over the years. There are numerous books by the same writers about working at Mad and Bill Gaines.
If Mad Magazine goes under, we lose an American icon.
If you have it you don't need it. If you need it, you don't have it. If you have it, you need more of it. If you have more of it, you don't need less of it. You need it to get it. And you certainly need it to get more of it. But if you don't already have any of it to begin with, you can't get any of it to get started, which means you really have no idea how to get it in the first place, do you? You can share it, sure. You can even stockpile it if you like. But you can't fake it. Wanting it. Needing it. Wishing for it. The point is, if you've never had any of it, ever, people just seem to know.
Couldn't you just tie a tether to the DeLorean, anchor it to the ground, and then make the time jump?
You arrive at your temporal destination, and the tether would keep you bound to the Earth's surface. It would only have to be long enough for the 88mph ramp up speed.
However, this means 1 second time jump would result in being physically yanked several kilometers in a split second.
Barring astronomical whiplash, this should keep you relatively stationary to the Earth.
Maybe Timecop did have the better time travel scenario. Launch from a bunker, and suddenly splash into the river.
I'm all for volunteer work, but today is my birthday, my boss took the day off, and the work is light due to being MLK day. This is a paid vacation for me!
I got a bit of kick out of a line in the article. While/. readers nationwide and internationally are more than familiar with the EFF, the article refers to it as a "local non-profit," since that is in fact where they are HQ'd.
When Nixon left office, the plane he took off on was Air Force One. When he landed, the plane had the tail number call sign.
The call sign changed when Ford was sworn in.
The White House made special accommodations with the FAA ahead of time to change the call sign mid-flight.
We're getting to a point where items like TVs and game systems should have power consumption ratings on them in the store, like with many kitchen appliances.
Does anyone know if the rover cameras can look upward? Could they see Phobos or Deimos clearly from the surface? Or is the atmosphere too dusty? That would be a pretty cool photo.
According to "Shawn Of The Dead," dogs can't look up. 'Rover' might have a problem then.

Because nobody else has said it yet.
Honestly, my favorite episodes are the Zoidberg-centric. Or anything Zoidberg.
If I use a heavy book both as reading material and as a doorstop, do I have to pay extra, since I now have found "extra value" in using that book?
Thermos porn...I can't wait!
They do in the movies. Flashing red light, beeping noises, and load motors when zooming and sweeping back and forth.

Do you calibrate its accuracy like a touchscreen and a stylus? Except with live human heads?

I'm sure they have other methods of extracting the information they want.
Ve have vays of extracting zee information!
Can't wait to see floor sessions with all those snarky word balloons superimposed everywhere.
Lawyers for Lionel Tate attempted to use professional wrestling as a scapegoat, and the judge and jury immediately rejected that.
I see no difference here whatsoever.
The only benefit I can see of this, is that I can actually be home during the 8 hour window the cable company gives for appointments.

Good thing software will be free. My mom only lets me spend $5.

That's one big smiley face!
