ADX Florence, thanks to an earlier post about TSA ruling back their mandate that people take off their shoes at airport security control. Now I have nightmares.
Wait, how do you go from TSA policy on shoes to a supermax prison in Colorado?

Taskmaster, as we tried to figure out how big the production team was! I don't think we figured out precisely, but larger than what my husband thought, just going off of how many editors and producers were listed.
Might it not also depend just on how you define "the production team"? Since editing is often termed "post-production", it would be reasonable to exclude the editors from the "production team". To me that term seems more to imply the lighting, cameras, audio, PAs, and other people actually on set, rather than the task writers or editors.

In a fun piece of trivia, I was looking up Katee Sackhoff because I was trying to find out who did the voice for Bitch Pudding on Robot Chicken and then laughed my ass off when I realized it was the same lady who played Bo-Katan Kryze in The Mandalorian. I really need a Robot Chicken sketch with Bo-Katan going all Bitch Pudding on the Mando now. BLAM!

wrote last edited by [email protected]I just checked out the article about the active volcano in Réunion Island, named Le Piton de la Fournaise. That's because I am staying there this month and hoping to catch some lava (not with my hands, duh. I will use a bucket).
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piton_de_la_FournaiseFrom there I read about the Deccan Trapps, a large western part of the indian subcontinent that was pretty much formed by serial lava flows about 60MY ago. Then I was led to the article about LIPs (large igneous provinces), and I'm still falling down that rabbit hole as we speak. Fascinating stuff

Oh, a genet !! They live in the forests of Mayotte, I've seen exactly one live before, she was crossing a road in town, around dusk. It's weird because she looked so much like a cat (same overall size), but thinner and longer, and her walk was super straight, like felines do when they're approaching prey and trying to stay low, you know. You could have mistaken her for a cat on a picture... but the way she moved was a total callout.
I have a cat now, very long and thin also, whom I affectionately call "little genet". Heheh
