Maybe I'm not as off my game as I thought. :wink:
You stink! ;):)

A new study in the American Journal of Political Science from Brown’s Rose McDermott, Harvard’s Dustin Tingley, and Penn State’s Peter K. Hatemi has found preliminary evidence that people are more attracted to the body odors of others with similar political beliefs. In the study, participants rated the attractiveness of vials of body odors obtained from “strong liberals” and “strong conservatives” on a five-point scale. The participants had no prior knowledge of which vial belonged to which partisan armpit.

Some participants had particularly strong reactions to the vials, as the paper explains:

In one particularly illustrative case, a participant asked the experimenter if she could take one of the vials home with her because she thought it was ‘the best perfume I ever smelled’; the vial was from a male who shared an ideology similar to the evaluator. She was preceded by another respondent with an ideology opposite to the person who provided the exact same sample; this participant reported that the vial had ‘gone rancid’ and suggested it needed to be replaced.

That was a scary scene for me,
Jim killing Lyle. That was just... too cruel.

The last episode next week, right? I hope we will get the answers.
Who is behind all of that, where is the egg from, why the military want it so much and won't let it go back under the dome? Is the dome is really there to protect the town, or it will kill everyone in the end? Is it possible only Big Jim survives in the end? Somehow I think Julia will die in the next episode... I hope I'm wrong.
But her hair will live on and get a spin-off show.

Moderator I think you posted somewhere (I can't find it now) that SK knew what direction the storyline was taking and how the series ends. Is that still true?

(did my tag work?)
Didn't get an alert. I know Jordan was working on that but must not have gotten it figured out.
No, I don't think he does anymore. He knows how this season ends but if it goes beyond, then that could change. I asked him this morning if he knew if it was being renewed and even he hadn't heard!

I'm really really curious to see how this season ends :)

Could you please ask him what hair products Julia is using? I demand to know how she gets that hair. I want hair like that -- because I'm worth it.
