The death of Bambi’s mother was judged the second most shocking movie death. I especially liked the commentary in regards to her survival…
If They’d Survived: A generation of mentally scarred children might be able to look at a prancing doe without bursting into floods of tears. Or is that just us?

Damn this sucks.
All exams will be open book, open notes.
Okay, so I was watching Star Trek Voyager and the ship went into red alert during an attack. For some reason, during a red alert, the ship lights dim down and red lights begin pulsating throughout the ship. So let me get this straight…during an attack, when the ship is being shot at and jostling around, when people will need to run to battle stations and be on the lookout for possible threats, the ship lights dim and hinder vision? Sounds legit.
Q: The mutual hate that Barcelona and Real Madrid have for each other transcends anything I’ve seen in American sports. Is there a rivalry in American sports anywhere near as impassioned as the one between these two teams?

SG: Not right now. Our most recent example was probably the Red Wings and Avalanche during the Claude Lemieux era: That one had bench-clearing brawls, goalie fights, sucker punches, retribution fights and everything else you’d ever want from hockey. Baseball doesn’t have anything like it; basketball doesn’t allow teams to act on any bad blood; and in football, rivalries like Ravens-Steelers, Patriots-Jets and Giants-Eagles lack the intensity/hatred/meaning because they don’t play each other enough. Here’s how I would describe Barca-Madrid: Imagine if the Mets and Yankees were the two best baseball teams by far, if they measured themselves only by each other, if they played six to eight series every year, and if they had many of the best players in the world. Then imagine if baseball was the only sport that anyone cared about in America, imagine if they were throwing at each other almost every game, and imagine if the players hated each other as much as the fans did. That’s Barca-Madrid. And on top of that, Barca plays soccer at a higher level than any American sports team does anything AND it has the best athlete in the world (Messi, who’s the closest thing to a sports genius that we’ve had since Michael Jordan). Wednesday’s Barca-Madrid bloodbath featured 90 minutes of high drama, an incredible winning give-and-go goal by Messi in the final minutes to win it for Barca, then a last-minute, scissor-kick cheap shot by Madrid’s Marcelo on pricey Barca addition Fabregas that nearly started a full-scale brawl. You couldn’t have asked for more from a two-hour sporting event. If you enjoy the World Cup every four years, you willreally enjoy every Barca-Madrid game. It’s just a fact.
Reminded me of a conversation I had at work today.
Pepper and now Thunderstruck by AC/DC? On a night when I have more time and less pain, I am totally meeting you! You have no say in the matter.
