That's a weak Wayne's World joke.

Randi looks amazing!

Beneath the Hilton

That is no dead which doth game
And after strange aeons this poem's still lame.

Starcraft anyone?

Looks interesting, but I prefer the PC version.

Actually

1, 4, and 5. Dang it!

My guess

Without dowsing, my guess is 2, 5, and 8.

Can they do it?

LOL. The challenge is to find water in cans.

JREF million dollar challenge

Some kind of dowsing test? We shall see.

Where in the hell is Carmen SanDiego?

At DragonCon of course! Duh.

Petticoat Junction

LOL.

Neat. Ben Radford's talk on Psychic Defectives -er, I mean "detectives" is at near room capcity.

The debate is on - round 2

It begins HOT with Graham having to explain the comment he made last year where he said, "James Randi is a fraud." He retracted that to state he meant to say that the Million Dollar Challenge is a fraud. I don't think he backed it up too well - but obviously believed what he was saying.

Another "Separated at Birth?"

Well, it was time for another deep bout of Nostalgia. Just a week after watching the new Batman movie, I finally had the opportunity to sit back and start watching Manimal. Yeah. See when Manimal came on I was in the Band in high school. And we had games on Friday nights. So while the rest of America missed Manimal by choice, I missed it because we didn't have a VCR back then. (Not that my mother would have let me record it if we had...)

So I get about as far as the credits on the first episode when I see This Guy:

That's Simon MacCorkindale and his wife actress Susan George.


And I got really confused because Manimal stalked the airwaves back in 1983, and yet the host of the show looked so much like Harvey Dent that I had to do some research. Yeah. They favor.

That's actor Aaron Eckhart, the actor playing Harvey Dent in the new Batman movie.

Wow. Their age is far apart, but not their look...

The moon's full.

Very gotham. I'm stuck here for a while it seems.
