Yep, that sounds bad. :!!!:

Even with all the technology and manpower available to humankind, we can't begin to match what bees do naturally on a mass scale.

True, the crash of the bee population in some areas of the world is a worry at the back of my mind. I figure there has got to be some repercussions from that, but what I don't know.

I dunno, I feel kinda sorry for the spider that he didn't get his lunch, or dinner. :twisted:

It amazes me that you can just get your very own bee hive like that. Don't get me wrong, I think that's pretty cool. But I thought you needed a license for something like that?

Yes, it's a very swanky looking revolving globe.
But if I may ask: what is the point of someone (such as me) hiding their online status if they can be tracked on that globe anyway?
Revolver Map has just rendered that user option irrelevant.

If you do see From the Earth to the Moon on sale for the same super low price that I got it for, then I seriously urge you to grab it. For a long time, it cost $60 and up, so I'm guessing they're clearing out their stock. Which might mean that once it's gone, it's gone. I don't think dlbpharmd or I ...

In a terrific explosion, Crappy Alpha VI destroyed itself, and shifted the orbit of Mallory II. Much of the planet was laid waste, and it was only the genetically engineered intellect of aTOMiC that allowed the remaining members of the Bogus Bay to survive. "Admiral" Jay never bothered to ...

I did not look at the trailer. All I want to know regarding the real new Green Lantern movie is, will he still possess the Dumbest Superhero Weakness in the Universe? Namely, impotence against anything yellow? I say that as someone who thinks Green Lantern is one of the most awesome superheros ever ...

Blackhawk, I think my overblown reaction to MP3 was due to a self-delusion on my part. I had recently been converting a whole bunch of my CDs to MP3, and was basically operating on faith that at the highest quality conversion, my ears really wouldn't be able to tell the difference from the original ...

I don't think I have this problem of drowsiness when reading. If a book excites me and I'm really into it, the hours just fly by. Which is not good if I have to work the next morning, so I try to do that only on weekends. But I rarely do that kind of intensive reading anymore. My problem - if it rea...

JazFusion, I'd go along with CMJ and say you can't go wrong with Canon. I've never used a Canon DSLR myself, but my first digital camera was a Canon Powershot. Their menu systems are consistent across their line of cameras, so I can at least vouch for their user-friendliness. I now use a Pentax DSLR...

Hey, c'mon, Menolly and ali deserve better than that. There's nothing "easy" about quantum physics, to the extent that I understand it. Which is to say, not enough to really understand it, but enough to know that it seems quite glib to call it "easy." CMJ, yeah, "slave bitch...

Once the movie starts playing, I'm sure it will just suck me in as always. It probably sounds like much ado over nothing, so I'll shut up now. :wink:

Well, I'm one of those weirdos who prefers the theatrical version of Fellowship, and since that is also my favorite film of the trilogy, the purchase was a no-brainer. Yes, I have the preciousssss in my possession. But I'm not exactly in the right mood to watch it, since spring and summer are approa...

My sympathies, Infelice. I will say, flying solo does have its advantages. Doesn't diminish the hurt you feel, of course.

Oops, you snuck in while I was adding my little post note. I can't imagine you'll be anything but pleased with your new blu-ray player. Enjoy! :D I'm excited about the release of the LOTR trilogy on blu-ray this coming Tuesday. It had better not be sold out when I go to get it after work, or I will ...
