Maybe I'm Just Hormonal Tonight
...but you guys are awesome :D
I totally dig having a bunch of friends, irl AND interwebs, like you guys. Seriously, I would totally do the Rogues job for free just to be there with everybody. (not a hint, Randy, I still have bills :P)
Anyways, I was struck with that out of nowhere just now. Thanks for being awesome, lol.

See how happy it makes 'em?
Look at that big shark-y smile! I think some Miss America contestant should compete on the platform that all sharks need love and, if she becomes Miss America, she will make sure all the sharks get petted every day.
Mega-Shark Just Needs Cuddles
Sharks can be cuddled like dolphins, say scientists
In experiments carried out in the US some varieties of shark allowed themselves to be picked from the water and cuddled.
Keepers at the UK's Sea Life Centres will now use the training techniques in the hope that they will end up with hundreds of trained sharks.
The experts at the aquariums are to begin a period of intensive tuition by using coloured boards and sounds to train the sharks in a similar way to that used by the scientist Ivan Pavlov in training dogs.
It will mean that feeding becomes easier because each shark in a tank will know when it is their turn to feed.
The Sea Life centres have many different types of shark and within just three months the brightest ones should be responding to commands.
Sharks learn the signals then, when they see or hear them, they approach the keeper who holds a "target stick".
The sharks then rub their noses against the stick and wait until they are fed.
No one had attempted to train sharks in this way before, but it could now teach experts a great deal about the creatures.
Carey Duckhouse, of Sea Life, said: "The US team has shown that many varieties of sharks can quickly learn to respond to a combination of audible and visual signals.
"A shark answers its own sound and colour signal by putting its nose on a target-stick held by the trainer, and keeping it there until it receives food.
"Some species, such as zebra sharks, will even roll over to have their tummies scratched or allow themselves to be lifted from the water without any kind of struggle.
"The implications for improving shark welfare are enormous. It means when we have to move them we can get the sharks to swim to a certain spot rather than have to chase them around."

Show the love...
I had some jokey possibilities for Valentine's Day posts, but I thought I'd go sincere instead. Or at least sincere by way of geeky list-making!
The idea here is to list five notable movies ya dig that deal with the theme of love. They can be happy or sad, serious or funny, romantic or effed up, requited love or unrequited. And they don't even have to be your favorites, just a list of five that strike you for whatever reason.
Here's my wholly random list:

Here's my wholly random list:
It Happened One Night - Pretty much the first great romantic banter movie, with smartass Clark Gable going up against sassy heiress Claudette Colbert. Still funny as hell and the final scene is one of my fave in all filmdom.
Fandango - This cult fave of mine is mostly a college road-trip flick, but I always loved the backdrop of Costner's unrequited love. The wedding at the end is genuinely touching.
Wall*E - I was surprised by how experimental this flick was - practically a silent movie for most of its running time. It's all heart, though, and if you're not feelin' the waterworks during the fire extinguisher sequence, you might not be human.
The Fly (Cronenberg remake) - I had to have at least one effed-up movie on the list! But The Fly really covers a lot of ground - it's got a weird 'n' sexy romance between charismatic dork Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis at her hottest, it's got an awkward love triangle, and it's most definitely got one of the creepiest birthing scenes of all time (o_O)
The Trouble With Harry - Only saw this lesser-known Hitchcock flick within the last few years, and it's weird as hell (black comedy and romance revolving around disposing of a corpse), but I love it to pieces. John Forsythe is witty as hell as the abstract artist in the picturesque little town that doesn't get him, and Shirley MacLaine is just ridiculously cute and quirky.
