Titan Gets A Sexy Infrared Close-Up. Cassini, You Pimp.
Check out this super bombad picture of Titan taken by Cassini back in August. You can see surface detail of the lovely rock, and it’s all thanks to the powers of infrared.
Tyrannosaurus Rex Much Bigger Than Previously Thought. Clone It And Confirm, IMO.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex has been filling the undies of many a good lad and lass (or at least me) over the years with gorgeous caramel liquid chocolate. It seems that even that reaction may have been understated, as researches and science wizards have revealed the fucker was bigger than we thought.
Video: Christopher Nolan Spittin’ About ‘Star Wars’. Fanboy Bliss.
Old! by a couple of days – but honestly everything I’m catching up with is for the most part, just consider this a venue – but still fucking awesome. Christopher Nolan talking about the original Star Wars. Goosebumps ahoy.
‘Die Hard 5’ Gets A Title And Release Date, I Get a McClanerection.
John McClane is a true American hero and the subject of idol worship here at OL. So while the fourth movie was watered down and didn’t kick me in the G-spot with pleasurable toes, I dug on it. There’s a fifth title coming. Confirmed! Stamped! It even has a title and release date.

Fear Fest: [Ride The] Lightning!
OCTOBER 14th, Lightning
“Electricity is really just organized lightning.”
-George Carlin
We may think we own this planet, but we’re really just guest of Mother Nature. If she wanted us gone, she wouldn’t even have to break a sweat. Today’s fear is something that we’ve all seen and heard. Astraphobia is the intense fear of thunder storms. While this fear knows no gender lines, it’s interesting to know that men are nearly 5 times more likely to be killed by a lightning strike than women. Kind of a weird stat huh? Well, you have the rest of the article to figure out why. If you already know, then don’t be a spoil sport, keep it to yourself.
Breaking Bad: Face Off (Season Finale)
“I won.” – Walt
Based on the promise of the episode’s title, lots of speculating went on concerning who would be “facing off” in the season finale. I don’t think anyone guessed that it actually meant someone’s face would be coming off. It was a huge finale, with lots of great pay-offs including an assassination scheme by Walter White that finally worked as planned. But in traditional Walt-fashion, it involved someone else doing the dirt – in this case Tio, who sacrifices himself to off Gus and Tyrus. “Face Off” showed another giant leap in the transformation we’ve been gleefully watching for four seasons: Walter White naive chemistry teacher to drug lord El Jefe of Albuquerque.
Spaceship Omega: Puke Bags To The Right.
Holla! Holla holla. Holla holla holla! It’s the Caff-Pow checking in quick in the middle of a mad cap week. There’s a been a particular grind to the past few days, tutoring and TAing and class taking wrapped around a healthy diet of not getting home until 10 pm. I have to beat the traffic tomorrow surfing the highway of concretized existence south for classroom observations and as such I’m about to get my slumber on rather quickly. Things should pick tomorrow when I get home and yeah I’ll actually post the Dexter recap this weekend. Oh! and course tomorrow Rendar is bound to post his alcoholic ramblings sometime tomorrow night in a stunning ode to a batch of hops and the such.
You may have noticed The Dude, friend of ours and frequent commenter currently embarking on his own month-long journey of madness on the pages, and so I hope you’re enjoying them. (It’s also his birthday, happy birfday, Dude!) Not to be outdone, Fauxbot dropped a Rage review for our asses, and we’re the better for it. At least our wallets. If you’re ever interested in participating in the pukey pastiche of madness that is the site with some original content, let me know. It keeps the ship afloat until I can regurgitate a day’s worth of geekdom for us to dissect.
Anyways I’m out, I hope all is well.
