...and now a random fact about Vin Diesel:
The Founding Fathers chose the bald eagle as America's symbol because of how it reminded them of Vin Diesel.
Another:
When Vin Diesel reaches a difficult point in his life, he often stops and wonders, "What Would Godzilla Do?" As the answer invariably is that Godzilla would devour a schoolbus full of Japanese children, whatever Vin does seems pretty OK by comparison.
Why ask why?
I spent the weekend back at the folks' place putting together a panoramic tripod mount and dodging thunderstorms. Nothing exciting to speak of, aside from tonight's movie du jour o' the evening.

Ooh, one of the best! I still wonder why they named the planet Arous. It must have lead to some terrible misunderstandings at Galactic Customs:
Customs Officer: Where have you come from today, sir?
Brain: Arous.
CO: What?
Brain: Arous.
CO: Are you tryin' to be funny?
Brain: No, I'm from Arous!
CO: So you're a wiseguy, huh? Hey Mike, we got a guy here who says he's from Arse!
Brain: No! Arous! Arous!
CO: You just can't help yourself, can you.
Brain: But I really am from the planet Arous!
CO: Yeah, and I'm from the planet Bollox. Mike, get out the latex gloves! We're goin' for the full cavity search!
