House, MD

Started watching House - amusing so far.

The odd thing I noticed was the opening theme - it's a swatch of a Massive attack song, Teardrop - the words that would go with it, were they included, are: "Love, love is a verb, love is a doing word". An interesting choice for a man who tries so hard not to care.

Reminds me of a Spider Robinson anecdote that I'll have to look up and post.

Very pretty.

Howard Tayler's LJ directed me towards this advertisement video for the Beretta Extrema2 'recoilless' shotgun.

The things ridiculous. It can empty a 12-shot magazine in under 2 seconds, and the professional playing with it was firing it multiple times one-handed. Tiny recoil, fast cycle. Makes me want to see someone do something terribly cinematic with it in a movie.
