Bottom, Blackadder, Dangerous Brothers, New Statesmn, Drop Dead Fred, Young Ones etc etc. He made me laugh so many times and for that I thank him. My thoughts go out to the son he leaves behind...

The Marvel Cinematic Universe

Awesome poster. I didn't think I could be anymore excited about this movie and now I am.

I think this is going to do really well because just like in the 90s when we watched 'Stargate', 'Starship Troopers' and 'Independence Day', we were wanting some Star Wars-esque thrills before the real Star Wars. Hopefully in the case of the ST, it won't turn out to be less than it's immitators.

Thanks again, Ryan! I guess Flickr does it to prevent people from using your photos without your permission, but it would be nice to have it easier with your own photos. I'll get photos up once I take them...(I haven't taken any with the tanks fully set up because I've lost my battery charger :P).

 LOL. Flickr have just changed it up again. Actually much simpler for once.

1. Click image

2. Click arrow thing on right and select "view all sizes"

3. etc

I see chickens as being as intelligent and worthy of life as a human toddler. I don't eat either of them.

I understand that to some people this seems odd but to me defending the rights of a blob of cells while slaughtering and eating pigs and cows is beyond weird.

Killing both is consistent, killing neither is consistent but to kill one and not the other is a dangerous paradox.

 There's some logic to that argument, good on you for caring about all life equally and I agree with you generally on this subject... BUT the big difference is that poaching a chicken egg is only gonna mean one less chicken. Poaching a toddler could be one less Beethoven, Herrmann or Merritt. Equating a blob of cells that has the maximum potential to go cluck a bit louder than other chickens, to a blob of cells that might write the '9th Symphony' doesn't really cut it.
