This weekend at the FillSome NorthEast. Doing their famous interpretative dance routines.

Followed by the country western stylings of Blixco Ridge

Which movies are so bad you would warn people away from them? So bad that, after having paid good money to see them, you walk out of the theater? So bad that, after having left the theater, you consider arson?

Which are the worst ever?

Update [2008-6-5 14:37:27 by wiredog]: As a counterpoint: gzt's Movies I've seen recently that were pretty all right, all things considered

Trying to come up with a list of top ten favorite albums. Can't even pare it down to top ten favorite bands.

Snippets, reworked and re-organized, from here (basically a bit of creative plagiarism on my part) discussing two questions: Why is the government involved in marriage anyway? Why is polygamy a problem?

Mainly kept here for possible future reference. The assumption is that legalization of gay marriage inevitably leads to legalization of some form of plural marriage.

I should note here that when I lived in Utah I knew several people who left, or were expelled from, the FLDS town on the UT/AZ border. That's not the nastiest polygamist group, but it's certainly not pleasant. One such group, in SLC, horsewhipped a young girl who tried to escape. She re-escaped, went to the hospital, and all hell broke loose. That's when the current crackdown began.

I assume all this Rebooting of the Matrices stuff is related to new features being rolled out, and the hiccups attached thereto.

Often the most interesting part of the paper.
