Minimizing variables.
We finally have a chance to analyze the average seattleite with a reduced variable media analysis. Two fils in the same Genre at the same time with exactly opposite offerings.
97% good reviews?
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/lat_den_ratte_komma_in/
44% good reviews (Just beating out Beverly Hills Chihuahua)
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/twilight/
Hmm... high quality cerebral foreign film that is praised by critics... or stupid strip mall drivel with racist undertones and financially supporting the mormon church and hence proposition 8 (the author actually was a contributor the the prop 8 campaign).
Which one is going to be a big hit with american audiences? I am ashamed to realize that the average idiot is going to support drivel, poor production quality and H8, over quality and art. But such is being in amerika. Such is consuming what you are force fed as a drone.
I mean, what does the drivel offer?
It helps you be an idiot.
It helps you be a drone.
Ok fine... runrunrun get in line and get your quick fix... and don't forget that can of coke...
Go get in line. The boxcar is waiting for you.

and now for the last...
I climbed out of that hole then, back to the friends who awaited me in our arena of light... but as I approached them, I could not help but maintain my gaze to the beloved corpse, even now fading from our reality.
Goodbye my dearest, I am sorry you made it end with this final act."
Legal debt forgiven
I can't help but wonder what the litigator owes.
Our firm ended up remitting all but the original retainer (and that was covered by a benefactor).
So...in the end the only cost is watching someone I love become a monster.
I feel so damn sorry for her.

Well, John Murphy just spilled the beans, so to speak, and he's right.
*all* of the situations i posed are completely equivalent and the
cable is equally likely to break in any of them.
If something about this doesn't seem right to you, if you looked at
these and thought that one of then was far worse than another one,
think about *why* you believe(d) that. For example, Delbert, for (B),
you said "On the plus side, it is moving at a constant rate - a good
thing.". Why is this a good thing? Does it even matter at all?

I rarely jump on the aerial riggers list...
but I love it when I smoke an ETCP board member.
(that being said, Delbert is a 5 star rigger, he just was too practical with the question)

that was the same guy that stole my friend Joan's bike... they also pinned my Indy Fab theft on him, but I just recovered my IF in Tucson, AZ, so turns out that good old JB was not the dude, probably, that stole my IF.
Did you wind up recovering your axis? Hope so- or at least I hope you see some money from that a-hole.
Cheers!

More LHC fun.
The obsession insignificant potential for catastrophe by the LHC at least has the ability to maintain public interest in such projects as the LHC. So you get articles like this that at least slightly maintain the publics tertiary education.
Anyway, the LHC-DOOMSDAY party is postponed for at least 2 months while they fix the magnet in sector 34. Keep an eye on sector 4-5 if you want an advance heads up on when we are throwing the party.
In the meantime we will get cool speculative articles like this.
and geek fun like this!
All of which demonstrate the ability to enhance the mentation of the common individual.
