Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Judgment vs. Judgement

In American English, judgement is generally considered a misspelling of judgment for all uses of the word, notwithstanding individual preferences. In British popular usage, judgment was traditionally the preferred form, but judgement has gained ground over the last couple of centuries and is now nearly as common as judgment.

There are very few films that I know inside and out, T2 is one of them. It's funny because I NEVER, EVER noticed Judgement was spelled Judgment. Just seems wrong.

"Judgment" never made sense to me, if you ask me. Seems like one of those words that everyone spelled wrong and it ended up sticking.

The statue looks great, by the way.

As mentioned a few pages back, I don't like the painted visor, I do wish these things would be done properly at this kind of scale. But otherwise it looks really good to me.

Agreed. A tinted sunglasses lens material for the visor would be ideal.

It will be polished very smooth but we cant use plastic on it. License doesnt allow anything but polystone.
