Journey to the edge of space and time

Just the other day I was wishing for something like this as I mentioned Powers of Ten. This is a fascinating video.

One little tidbit I thought of particular interest was the little 70-light year diameter sphere that shows the extent of man's radio transmissions. Even if anyone out there is listening, our "hello" has barely left the transmitter...

The universe is so honking big...

Nutcracker as Action Adventure?

alaskawolf pointed me to this website, which informs me that "New Line has picked up a pitch from Darren Lemke, the writer behind the studio's Bryan Singer project "Jack the Giant Killer," that reimagines the classic tale of "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King" as an action-adventure movie."

Oh, for the love of Mogg. What's next, this?

Sheesh...

"Dead Man Working"

This seems beyond possiblity. Yet there it is... You may need to click the "play" button a couple of times to get the movie to go.
