killing and mad men and falling skies....I'm even skipping a good blues band I like for a night on the couch -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 23, 18:10
I'm watching -- (link) - zork Jun 23, 17:25 [Backboard] 3
- No argument with that - Just feel it's being slightly misrepresented. - Meg Jun 23, 17:41 2
  - well, the actual grand canyon is what, 20 miles across? -- nm - loosi at home Jun 23, 18:33
  - There's a positive out of this. Maybe some more tourism in the future too. At first, didn't they say G.C. when Evel did his Snake River jump? -- nm - zork Jun 23, 17:53
If he dies, I'll see it on the news so why bother? -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 23, 16:59
No interest, as there are only two possible outcomes and they're both bad. - the wrong element, bad guy Jun 23, 16:41 7
- I dunno. From watching Man on Wire, it looked like there's lots that one could on the way - JD Jun 23, 16:47 6
  - So, best case is watching someone walk a straight line, take a nap, then walk some more? - the wrong element, bad guy Jun 23, 17:26 1
    - it's not like he's going to change a tire on a Harrier hovering next to him :(( -- nm - peglegpete Jun 23, 17:30
  - Never before had I wished for retro-active gale force winds - Will Hunting Jun 23, 17:02
  - But thinking about it, I was young and gullible enough that I watched Evel and that whole Snake Canyon Skycycle thing -- nm - JD Jun 23, 16:50 2
    - I was a huge Evel fan -- nm - zork Jun 23, 17:29
    - he was known for crashing, wallenda isn't -- nm - peglegpete Jun 23, 17:02
if he falls it'll be on youtube. if he makes it it will be as exciting as - sgtmike Jun 23, 16:29
It's on a 5:00 here so won't interfere with primetime. Yep, he's crossing the Little Colorado River on Navajo land. - Meg Jun 23, 16:29 1
- This was taken from the grounds of the Cameron Lodge just upstream from where he's crossing. -- (link) - Meg Jun 23, 16:33 [flickr]
not me. any bad results will be on the news -- nm - peglegpete Jun 23, 16:21
No, it is Mad Men series finale tonight -- nm - amoxy Jun 23, 16:15 2
- Just the season finale, one more after this. -- nm - David Jun 23, 16:16 1
  - Doh! Yes you are right -- nm - amoxy Jun 23, 16:23
no interest. -- nm - CQ Jun 23, 16:14 1
- I think Copper starts tonight on BBC. I'm going to give that a go -- nm - CQ Jun 23, 16:21
