Flipping through the channels this morning, I paused on the local PBS affiliate (KBDI Channel 12 ... the local local station) when I saw a face I recognized: Jon Caldara, president of the Independence Institute. Turns out the program is Independent Thinking, airing every Friday night at 8:30 PM, and again on Sunday at 11:30AM ( Read more... )

History Channel keeps showing various "documentaries" about bibilical times, covering disasters, various stories, etc. Invariably the talk about the Flood, and it reminds me of this bonus comic from Zane

Watching Family Guy tonight, I was just wondering ...

Why is Lois with Peter? What does she see in him? Is he just a really great lover? I mean really ... she's a beautiful rich young woman, and he's a fat sack of crap ...

Does anyone remember what I'm talking about? or am I just making things up again?

Anyway, I was thinking on my way in this morning, that GI Joe is not ( Read more... )

Regarding the question posed here the real question in my mind was two fold: Is it possible? I mean, the doors on the inside are physically larger than on the outside. And two, would it be "better" Even if someone somehow got into the police box part, they may just think "Damn! An ordinary police box! I've got the wrong one" (if on Earth, or ( Read more... )

If the Doctor erected some sort of ... air lock type thing on the inside of the Tardis, would people stop commenting on the fact that it's larger inside than out? If this "airlock" were designed to look like the inside of a police box, with the back wall actually being a door into the rest of the Tardis, how many people would it fool ( Read more... )
