  - Yeah, I think I paid around that @ shutterstock before -- nm - decline Jan 15, 15:41
  - Alternatively, you could fly me out there and I could snap a few shots. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 15, 15:37 8

On the cover of Mariah Carey's "Merry Christmas" album, is she wearing a dress with the hem concealed in the snow, or a body suit? - Mop Jan 15, 15:15 3
- I think it's a jumpsuit, and her legs are meant to be buried in snow. -- nm - b. Jan 15, 15:31 2

Poll: Predict Krusty's "Cloverfield" grade. I think he'll give it a solid B+. -- nm - ML Jan 15, 14:30 11
- Was it *actually* filmed there? -- nm - Spawn Jan 15, 16:10
- C+ -- nm - Beaker Jan 15, 15:39
- I'm hoping their being equally cagey about the sequel's concept because what I saw doesn't match Cloverfield. - Mel Profit Jan 15, 14:47 5
  - Pete's FB post I think has the right of it. - ML Jan 15, 15:30 3

- sorry about this; but those aren't really from urban decay - they don't make brushes like that. - b. Jan 15, 14:26 1
  - for a knockoff that doesn't lie, I can recommend this big 'ol powder brush - it's *a lot* like a spendy IT Cosmetics brush, enough -- (edited) - b. Jan 15, 14:30

- Not take it at all. My dad double dosed his bp meds and ended up in intensive care -- nm - decline Jan 15, 15:34
- a one a day pill that you're not sure was taken? do not take another. missing one pill is almost always ok, possibly doubling could be bad news. -- nm - b. Jan 15, 14:16
- My guess is that ODing on medication could be bad. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 15, 14:13
- I know most of you don't care if I live or die, but I still have 37 powerball rollover tix -- nm - General Zeit Jan 15, 14:10 4
