Since mods removed my comment but failed to elaborate why, I'm going to repost it.

Brings to mind the dichotomy of the Russian and Israeli invasions. Ivans blow up a school, and it's a warcrime. Schlomos blow up a school, and it's due to their inherent right to self defense.

The comment may not be entirely related to the article directly, but why have a world news community if not for discussing world events?

My slopes aren't as slippery, where did you buy yours? I get why you said that, given the tumultuous nature surrounding Israel since it's founding in the 1940's, but the Arab nations said they would cease aggression when Israel did. Perhaps Israel having it's sticks taken away is a step towards a peaceful Middle-East?

The starliner is to return unmanned, according to this article. Can you imagine being on the ISS, and watching the ship you should have taken shred apart into burning rain as it attempts to pierce the veil of our atmosphere.

My comment was absolutely an understatement to generate curiosity. I do agree that Kevin Can Fuck Himself is a hidden gem. I've read that some people were saying the sitcom element takes them out of moment, but I fear they're robbing themselves from a great experience by not continuing.

The opening line brought me years back, but the rest was an unexpected journey of enlightenment. Well done.

There's a show called Kevin Can Fuck Himself that uses a laugh track to bias the audience in favor of certain characters.

Read his letters. He's stated that he doesn't like allegory and he wanted mythology for England free of christian influence. One of his hangups with Arthurian legends is they're influenced by christianity.

Perhaps their tails are easily or often damaged?

So measuring from full fore to aft might give inconsistent results among other similar variables for the examined species, such as location, age, and weight. Going booper to pooper might give more reliable data, if the tails are often snipped at the tip by other reptiles, predators, disease, rogue mohels, swamp boat propellers, or hastily closed doors.

This is my best guess, I'm not lizardologist or a measuresmith.

Watch V For Vendetta next, also Hugo Weaving. In that film, he does an excellent job of portraying emotions from behind a mask. He does a better job from behind a mask than a lot of actors can do with their entire face.

I've seen Breaking Bad mentioned. If you enjoy that, check out Your Honor. It's another drama series starring Bryan Cranston.

When I have kids, one of the greatest challenges I'm anticipating is going to be keeping all the voices of the dwarves in the Hobbit diverse yet consistent.
