Nope, not mine yet. :p I'm watching it on Thursday night at GV but until then, here is Phil Plait's review. Spoiler alert!

(And yes, I've read all the reviews because 1) I can't wait, 2) we all already know how the story is going to end, and 3) contrary to popular belief, Star Wars isn't sacred to me the way Blade or X-Men is, so the perfect alignment of seats, perfect viewing experience, and no external influences about the story thang doesn't hold.)

Jon, you'll be very proud of me. I wrote 2 poems last night while watching Buffy (yep, it was Buffy fest all night till 4am - second half of season 2 right till the end when Angel gets killed). :)

I absolutely *love* this blog. In fact this probably my fave blog of all time. I've read Marvel comics since I could read (my brother was an avid collector. He had, like, Spiderman Issue #1) and Hulk was one of my fave characters. I also had a thing for Thor (sorry, Hulk)... and Batman. Go have a read. I guarantee it'll make your day. :D

Astronaut Asks Congress to Investigate Threatening Asteroid

Extracts:

A former NASA astronaut (Russell Schweickart) will call on the U.S. Congress to evaluate an asteroid with a small chance of hitting Earth in 2036 and suggest lawmakers consider a space mission to monitor the object.

The odds of a collision in 2036 are about 1-in-10,000.

There are no formal plans in place, at NASA or elsewhere, for destroying or deflecting an incoming asteroid. But if it needs to be nudged off course, you don’t wait until after 2029, Schweickart explained. By then it will take far more energy to deflect the rock, he said.

"Given the devastation that would occur, everyone would want to commit to a deflection mission," Schweickart said. In fleshing out his preliminary analysis, an estimated "path of risk" has been plotted out.

Since Earth is 70 percent ocean, any possible impact might logically be a splashdown. Schweickart lays out one scenario -- again, the odds of such a result are very small -- in which 2004 MN4 hits the Pacific Ocean, about 680 miles (1,100 kilometers) off the Southern California coast. The entire western coastline of the United States would experience a devastating tsunami, resulting in billions of dollars worth of damage, Schweickart says.

Given data from the radio transponder, scientists would be able to conclude by 2014 that the asteroid whether the asteroid has a decent chance of hitting or not, Schweickart figures.

"Either way…our course of action is clear," he said. "We either plan another series of cocktail parties to watch the asteroid go by in 2036 -- as we will have done in 2029 -- or we mount the most important space mission in human history."

All you have to do is to extract at least 11 pounds (five kilograms) of breathable oxygen from a volcanic ash-derived lunar soil substitute called JSC-1 within 8 hours. The competition expires June 1, 2008.

I should have become a scientist.

Check here, here, and here. My trigger finger sent 2 of the first. :p

The 5 closest matches with #1 as the closest. A rather interesting analysis. More accurate than the last quiz I have to say, although as with quizzes, most cover the spectrum. Fascinating thing is that the potential careers I might have ended up in are found in each of the categories: scientist, programmer, mathematician, programmer, lawyer, forensic pathologist (yup!), and photographer.
