James 'The Rev' Sullivan was the drummer for Avenged Sevenfold until his tragic death on December 28, 2009. The Rev wrote the lyrics to most of their songs and was one of the most kick-ass drummers to ever walk the face of the earth. He was a fan of Mike Portnoy from Dream Theater, who is now helping A7X to get back on their feet. 3 days before his death, he came to the band after finishing the lyrics to 'Fiction' and said, "That's it. That's the final song on the album." Their new album 'Nightmare' has many references to Jimmy, like the lines;
'Never in question, lethal injection'
'Details blurry, lost him too early'
'I see, you're a king who's been dethroned'
'Cast out, in a world you've never known'
from 'Welcome To The Family'.
R.I.P. The Rev, foREVer in our hearts, never forgotten. Best Rev quote:
"One day, I'm gonna jump off the bus, and run into the woods, and never come out! And when I do, I'm gonna be the knife master."
We'll miss you Jimmy! Teach God how to play those drums!

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
