There's a tunnel under the North Portico that goes to the Treasury Building across the street. And there is very likely now a tunnel under the West Wing that goes to the Eisenhower Executive Office Building across the other street.

There's much cooler stuff under the Capitol, including a little private subway system, since there's no place for 535 Congresspeople and their staffs to park nearby.

"Disinterested" and "uninterested" are held by modern usage experts to represent a useful distinction worth maintaining.

Lexicographers, by comparison--and I include the venerable OED--are and always have been whores who suck dick for a dollar behind the Piggly Wiggly.

I agree with the general awe and the specific bafflement over the Clooney Depature scene.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned yet (pardon if I just missed it in this thread) was how much horsing around Clooney was doing at the beginning. I really couldn't believe they had him just flying circles around the shuttle, putting them all in danger if he collided with something and wasting all that fuel, not to mention all the pointless jabber he was doing while the inexperienced Bullock was trying to accomplish the actual mission. And Faceless Astronat #3 wasn't much better.
