Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.

Oh and on such a great movie as well... Stressing brotherly love and Irish tradition. Allow me to lay out a scene for you.

Gangsters (two of them) break into the 3rd story apartment of two brother's to "repay" them, they live in a run-down building. They handcuff one brother to the toilet and take the other one out in the alley to execute him. As the gangsters are escorting the brother out to the alley, the first brother, filmed in amazing graphic detail nearly breaks both of his wrists ripping the toilet out of the ground so he can get free. He then carries the toilet, wrists gushing blood with handcuffs still on, up to roof. He looks down to see the gangsters with guns pointed as his kneeling brother. The next shot shows him heaving the toilet over the edge of the building, then him following it down to the ground. Toilet hits one gangster, he lands on the other. I have not seen a scene (Nice play on words) with more diverse emotion in all my entire life. You must see this movie.

If Trish doesn't get it, I hope somebody does.

The primary purpose of the DATA statement is to give names to constants; instead of referring to pi as 3.141592653589793 at every appearance, the variable PI can be given that value with a DATA statement and used instead of the longer form of the constant. This also simplifies modifying the program, should the value of pi change.

Had to watch it in Freshman Humanities, the Whitman gave it away.

Was it? I was thinking it was Joe Pesci in "With Honors" He played the character Simon Wilder (who was thought to be Walt Whitman's ghost.)

<i>What's a Nubian</i>


The Nubian is a relatively large, proud, and graceful dairy goat of mixed Asian, African, and European origin, known for high quality, high butterfat milk production. The head is the distinctive breed characteristic with the facial profile between the eyes and the muzzle being strongly convex. The ears are long, (extending at least one inch beyond the muzzle when held flat along the face), wide, and pendulous. They lie close to the head at the temple and flare slightly out and well forward at the rounded tip, forming a "bell" shape. The ears are not thick, with the cartilage well defined. The hair is short, fine and glossy. Any color, solid or patterned, is acceptable.
