Mesopotamians used skilled laborers. No. I'm specifically referring to unskilled labour. The process of creating simple bronze objects - Spikes, arrowheads, cups, knife blades, etc - was highly specialized to reduce costs. Some skill went into making the initial molds of the objects, and producing ...

The concept of an assembly line mass production, wherein the participants are not skilled laborers, and only know a small fraction of the actual process, to allow large numbers of units to be produced rapidly, is an American invention. Nope. Assembly lines have been around since humans first gather...

You've described an awful lot of nuts, for a low-fat diet. Nuts tend to have "good" fat, but they do have a lot of fat, and a lot of a good thing can be bad for you too. True. I probably should have added more (Maybe - Ask your doctor) tags. I know a few people who've been on really low-fat low-fat...

Porridge - Red River is very good, but I don't know if it's available where you are (Good for stomach bacteria.) Oatmeal (Good for stomach bacteria.) All-Bran Almond milk (Lots of healthy fats, helps replace some of the fatty acids and proteins you'll be missing on a low-fish diet.) Yogurt Kale Spin...

Wow, Mars sure is... Um... Sandy. And kinda, well, dull.

Where are the green-skinned alien-babe poledancers, dammit?!

I'll pass that along. I know she really wanted to go to the cookout this year. Unfortunately it just didn't work out. I'll get her back onto the forum anyway.

I've been away for a long loooong time, but a quick scan of the forum shows that really nothing has change- I'm pregnant. :D :eyebrow: I've really got to log on more often. I turn my back for ten months and people get up to all sorts of craziness. Congratulations to both of you, and best wishes. I'l...

I missed #7.

Joyeux Noel!

A friend sent me links to the Cloverfield and Dark Knight trailers. The plague of viral marketing has worked its way into my flesh and compels me to share them with you.

My fiance is coming to visit for Christmas. Overall I gotta say long-distance relationships suck, but the anticipation of a visit...

This is bad news for me as a fan. I can't imagine how much worse it must have been for his family.

He had a lot of good years, and he's probably got a couple of more good ones ahead of him. I guess that qualifies as a good life.

... And about 5-10% of the gentlemen depending on what set of statistics you believe.

The Let`s All Beat Up On Rob Liefeld* thread led me to Greg Lamb`s latest porn-swipe, which lead me to this.

The little green nutsack is oddly hypnotic.

* It`s fair. He deserves it.

I hear ya, but the topic is "Good Jazz" and although it is up for interpretation, it is a direct request about jazz musicians and not six degrees from jazz. Not being snobby. Just trying to keep the topic relevant to the original post. 8-) Is it acceptable to recommend Skip James, or is that too bl...

Tom Waits' early work includes a lot of great jazz/beat music and spoken word material*. * Frank settled down in the Valley, and he hung his wild years on a nail that he drove through his wife's forehead. He sold used office furniture out there on San Fernando Road and assumed a $30,000 loan at 15 1...

School Spirit has made the big time: It's referenced in a non-webcomic Wikipedia entry. Congratulations.

Unless, of course, you edited it in yourself. In which case that's just low.

Don't try to force your recovery or push too hard. By all means go back to judo and your regular activities as soon as you can, but don't expect to be one hundred percent in the first week or two. I know people who tried to rush things after surgery. All they did was either set recovery back by week...

i learned today that perhaps my undergraduate student is not entirely useless. http://jonsweb.net/dusan/legosmiles/bigsmile.gif It knows how to make coffee? I learned today that I have far too many computer passwords. I can remember them all, it's just that I can't remember which password goes with...

Bill Donahue has no sense of humor or good nature. Or proportion, or history. Calling this silly little stunt "One of the worst assaults on Christian sensibilities ever" is pretty over-the-top. Ghastly's webcomic has got to be far more worthy of death threats than this tasteful* stunt. * 'Tasteless...

Well I don't want no Anna Zabba Don't want no Almond Joy There ain't nothing better Suitable for this boy Well it's the only thing That can pick me up Better than a cup of gold See only a chocolate Jesus Can satisfy my soul (Chocolate Jesus lyrics by Tom Waits) I'm sorry. Some sort of dark inner for...
