Even though the Oceanic giraffes are in full bloom and the oyster owns a fine wristwatch, that is no reason to install the modality torque emulators (extra cheese just 40c) backwards because you mistakenly thought 'Lady Chatterley's Lover' needed more bears. This is EXACTLY why TE Lawrence died young and cannibal guilt is no longer the social shame it once was.

A show I am watching mentioned how white supremacists use the number 88 to spread hate.

So I looked it up.

Why white supremacists love the numbers 14 and 88
Business Insider

Quote:Law enforcement officials in Tennessee have arrested two white supremacists who planned to assassinate Barack Obama, the New York Times reported Monday.

The skinheads had a scheme to attack the presidential candidate while wearing white tuxedos and top hats.

They also intended to murder 88 people and behead 14 black children—numbers that "have special significance in the white power movement," according to the Times.

I just now realized The Golden Compass (movie) is part of the His Dark Materials universe.

Ruth Wilson is a far cry from Nicole Kidman, though.

88 is easy, Heil Hitler.

Based on my zodiac sign, my most powerful chakra is the third eye chakra. I am supposed to put an amethyst crystal between my eyes to open this third eye.

I have no idea what to do with this new information.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

A pleasant surprise, apparently Natasha “Species” Henstridge is turning into a full-blown foot girl. At Least assuming that the Wikifeet user who she sent feet pics and her used shoes isn’t just a one time thing.

For years, I've assumed that Evil Dead 2 was released in 1988. Turns out I was one year off. And now that adds the number of years in film (past 1920) I don't have on Blu-Ray to five: 1935, 1937, 1938, 1952, and 1988.

When Franklin Roosevelt established a foundation to fight polio in 1938, comedian Eddie Cantor suggested everyone send in a dime, and coined the term ‘March of Dimes’.

This is why Roosevelt is on the US dime.
