I think we should stay focused on Rampart you guys.

If you had to play against DEATH in a board game (like in Bill and Ted) which game would you choose?

I'd say it's probably the moment in this video where they realise there's a 1/3 second delay between the nematocyst deployment and the venom being released.

I'm not a medical professional and one time I was walking through my local hospital on the way out after having had some physio for an injured shoulder. I felt pretty good about life in general and was looking forward to enjoying the rest of my day. I rounded a corner and saw a girl (maybe 8 years old) sat up in a hospital bed being wheeled down the corridor surrounded by a number of doctors and nurses. She had the right side of her head shaved and what appeared to be marker pen drawn in lines on the side of her head. Clearly she was on her way to surgery, something to do with her head but that's not what upset me, I'll never forget the look in her eyes. She had given up. You could clearly see she had just given up. She didn't look sad or upset or scared or worried just...nothing. I'll never forget that look in her eyes, it broke me emotionally in a matter of seconds and I remember knowing, completely knowing right there and then that I could never be a doctor or nurse and work with children. I'm not emotionally strong enough and I have the highest respect for all medical professionals for doing what I know I could never do no matter how much training I had.

Thank you for doing what you do.

Does anyone ever tell you that you look a bit like Russell Crowe?
