Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 And Texas politics takes a turn for the worse. What's your poison? Dan Patrick's success and seeming November victory? Or 7 months of Wendy Davis? No matter what your political bent, things are seriously freaky in Texas Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heartbreak Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Too bad Steve Stockman lost, that would have made for some real entertainment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But the success of Ken Paxton, Glenn Hegar, Sid Miller, Wayne Christian is certainly depressing. Not to mention the way many Texas House seats went. Plus, the District 11 State Board of Education seat will be in a runoff, which worries the hell out of me since the hard right is the only group that will turn out to vote in a runoff. So there's a victory for those that feel God is the most important thing in the classroom and Noah had dinosaurs on the ark. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heartbreak Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Noah had dinosaurs on the ark. Hey, at least there's another Bush on the rise there. Because we all know that's just what the world needs, another Bush... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LouieB Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 It appears that there is a big time Hollywood movie coming out of the Noah story. I wonder if it will feature dinos on board. Yahoo..... LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently there is a disclaimer attached to the film and all of the promotional materials. Just so we don't offend any of the far religious right, I guess. http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/moviesnow/la-et-mn-controversial-noah-will-now-carry-disclaimer-20140228,0,2975183.story#axzz2vajNwQRm Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This got me thinking....I wonder how Noah accounted for the weight of the dinosaurs when building the ark. I mean, some of those suckers were enormous. Did he use extra pitch/tar or nails/pegs on certain areas to account for the additional weight? Also, did he use the sheer weight of his cargo as ballast? Was Noah a trained engineer? The mind boggles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
