shot down a proposal on Wednesday to make such open forums a regular

Watching a marathon of Special Unit 2 on SyFy today. This was actually a
decent show from 2001. It deals with a secret group of people who investigate
and contain creatures from myth that oddly love to hang out in Chicago. The
formula is pretty familiar: secret group of agents, special weaponry
I am also curious as to the lack of a physical keyboard for those who'd prefer
it (available for usage by buying a keyboard doc as a accessory). Also it's

something stupid, it's not in any way meant to suggest that person has Downs or

I have to agree with that. It's a wonderful idea, but we don't run our Guv'mint

Slorenia! Thanks for the memory jog, B! Though I loved Annihilation, I didn't
much like Ultron in that. Even at his scheming best, he was still annoying to
me. And Keith Giffen, the writer of the mini, gave Star-Lord and his crew the
best lines.
Mr Worf, I've been trying to avoid the topic of Avatar in any SF forums I
post in, because I wanted to see it eventually. Something made me break down

four is already a supergenius on the level of her father
