    I knew there was some trick to it! I wonder how many people will pick up on this and try to break their thumbs so they will bend further??? Damn, now I'm sounding like RW222!!!!

    LMAO, yeah next you'll actually give a hypothetical situation in which you haven't had a chance to test it but you reckon it would work.

    My boss has knees that are capable of him looking like a friggin flamingo. It makes me cringe every time I see it!!

    Hopefully none, I don't want that pain karma on me! It has come in handy for some strange balance situations trying to reach with the torch where I probably shouldn't be. That's typically followed by being zapped, so I avoid it if possible

    How dare you accuse me of such idiocy, my thumbs already bend back 90*, so why would I break them?

    It makes my thumb more opposable than yer average, barely fell outa the tree, monkey cousin, since I can oppose it backwards to the opposite side of the first three fingers, as well as to the tip and side nearest the thumb.

    Anyhoo, back to our regularly scheduled discussion about the "Duke Nukem Forever" header..

    I think you are referring to the movie ''The arrival'' with charlie sheen? Contact was that lame movie with jodie foster....but I never could watch more than 5 minutes of it without falling asleep so maybe that is what you meant.

    Yup thats the Arrival with charlie sheen. No one else has seen this movie?? LOL. The young black kid is an Alien and he takes off running....sheen is standing up on the top of the giant satellite dish yelling down to the kid. Thats pretty much the very end, like 30 seconds from the end. There's also a part kinda in the middle of the movie, sheen is taking a bath and the tub from above comes crashing down, there's a chase scene and the alien (that looks like an older man) comes to a dead end so he hyperextends the legs and jumps super high to the top of the building to get away.
