Are people seriously going to watch this? And I'm with Nothingman here - what happens to the egg when if it gets fertilized? Too weird for me. It's appalling, actually.
I don't think there's an actual egg involved; instead they are using some kind of synthetic chemical 'lure' for the sperm, so they think there's an egg.

It is pretty low though. Ick.
I would'nt be surprised to see reality tv shows getting weirder. The whole thing reminds me of a brave new world concept. Did anyone see "the running man" (I think thats the name ) of the movie with arnold s. in it. It seemed really far out at the time it came out but now is not that much different than todays shows. One that I have become interested in is fear factor. Apparently there were complaints after they made the contestants drink dead rats mixed in a blender. The viewers found that too gross. I could gag just thinking about it.

You could have sex with me if you really want to help...I guess that's a "no"?

Huh, the average ecological footprint in Canada is 8.8 global hectares per person. I'm sure it's just some simple math thing but it still makes no sense to me. Thanks for trying to help me out.
So that means 9:24 for me and 4:8.8 for you. If you divide 4 by 8.8 you get .455. If you divide 9 by 24 you get .375, which is a little less than .455. That's pretty close!

Is that the one with James Caan as the bad guy who puts Arnold in this huge deathtrap place and Arnold has to escape the traps and evade the bad guys, all on his own with no weapons? If so, then I've seen it, a long time ago. Otherwise, I'm thinking of the completely wrong movie, sorry!

Darn. If he had not seen his shadow, that would have meant only six weeks until spring. But alas, there will be six more weeks of winter instead because he saw his shadow. :wink:

It didn't open, emmie! :(

But yeah, I think valentine's is a little bogus, too. People should do nice romantic things for the people they love any time! Not because Hallmark decided on Feb. 14.

My boyfriend and I celebrate our anniversary on February 1st, so we usually don't make a huge deal out of Valentine's Day - usually we have nice desserts, but we rarely go out to a fancy dinner for Valentine's Day.

I'm chornically single so Valentine's is no big deal to me. I don't hate it, I think I'd like it less if I were in a relationship. The pressure combined with cheesiness might be more than I'd like. But as a single person it doesn't make me feel alienated or pressure me to find someone. Interestingly I was checking the schedule book at work today and more people have booked off Valentine's day than any other Holiday this year (it's a restaurant so we're open everyday except Xmas).

I still send all my singel frineds as valentine.:)
It should be about loveing...not just boyfriend/girlfrined love.
yeah and it's all a bit bogus.
