Degenerate gambler Terrence "Not Johnny" Chan posted an interesting question: could he do 1000 push-ups in 1000 minutes? Without training for it, of course. The speed record for 1000 pushups is 18:13 so it's hardly impossible, but the challenge is akin to the question of whether an untrained person could walk a marathon.

Michael Wood turns in this review of The Dark Knight, and to my mind it is interesting and right in many ways. It's understanding of The Joker is one I wish I'd written. Also, virtually every paragraph beyond this one (plus also, Wood's review) is rife with spoilers, so you have been warned.
