Random Thought of the Day

[i_rock_poems]

Why do you give up? Have you ever heard Nickleback?

[Koa]

Uhhh.....Stan........maybe my optic nerves are playing tricks on my brain, but your Jabba the Borg looks like some kind of gelatin dish my granny would serve at a picnic........less Borg-like, more smorg-like.......

To me he looks a bit like the evil pizzaman from Spaceballs... :lol:

[Bongitybongbong]

Hey, Welcome back man, where ye be at??? :thumbs_up
I've got no idea. It's good to be back. :cool:

[amuse]

...i have to file my taxes! now!!

[Stanislaw]

...i have to file my taxes! now!!

Bloody hell, I hate tax time! :mad:

[imthefoolonthehill]

i wonder what genius decided to market Halls supplemental drops instead of cough drops...what the heck is this supposed to be??

*@%*!$!$ insert general disdain for society here

[Koa]

I spent another hour with the guy I used to have a crush on and it felt like so good...and I'm wondering why it has to feel so good, I'm not "in love" anymore, but I can't help feeling so good with him most of the time... And I have to kinda remind myself that he's the one who didn't ever try to hear from me for the 5 months I was in Hungary, and never really asked me much about it, and doesn't really care, and behaved like a moron...etc. So Why, damn, Why? :mad;

[ajoe]

Ahh... I haven't been sick in a long time that I forgot how sucky it feels. I keep sneezing and my nose is running and my eyes and tired and I really want to sleep. But I still have homework for my classes to do and a book to read and a video to watch. And for my own pleasure, I also want to watch Samurai Champloo. Then I have to go to work this weekend even though next week I'm going to have midterms on two subjects, both of which I'm not especially comfortable with.

Darn it, why is there so many things to do and so little time? How does Hermione live?

And goodness gracious, why have I been here so frequently lately? Need to stop wasting my time.

[baddad]

..........spanky spanky.......

[Psyche]

What the hell is my cat thinking? Shooting pains like shooting stars are attacking my endometrial tissue. Shooting ninja stars, not the bright and beautiful streaks in the sky. damn ninjas and their stealthy painful ways, ohhh.....

[mono]

What the hell is my cat thinking?
Since I sit so nearby, I will interpret her 'meownese.'
Medusa's random thoughts of the day:
"How many hours have I slept today? Well, that's two, plus five, minus three, compared to yesterday."
"What mischief shall I get into next? Knocking over large glasses of water always sounds purrr-fect; watching those silly, mindless humans clean it up only motivates me further."

[amuse]

...why oh why does public trans have to go on strike?

[Helga]

I am sitting at the local cafe reading a play by an anonymus forum member and loving it. I am also trying to accept it that I am not allowed to hit on the owner, his girlfriend asked me to stop it. Ohh and my friend just had a baby boy!

[Stanislaw]

hmm, I hate all this freaking snow!!!

any ways happy random thought:

I bought hitchhikes guide to the galaxy today, the new five part book!!
:D

[amuse]

public trans is being good for another 2 months! and by then i will be on campus, with plans to move closer to the shuttle service for the fall semester!! :nod:

[Psyche]

Helga, Darling, I'm sure it is ok to 'hit on' the creator, I just hope you do not get your feelings hurt in any way.
Mono just got me chocolate and skittles, He knows how to patch up a hurty tummy right quick! :banana:

[imthefoolonthehill]

what if we never were smart enough to be the helpful individuals that we never are?

wait... this isn't marking thread.

[Dyrwen]

I really need to get into a writing course and out of this political one. I really need to write more than 5 times a week. I need to develop more short stories. I want to play a game, but I really I need to sleep.

Okay. Go.

[Helga]

Helga, Darling, I'm sure it is ok to 'hit on' the creator, I just hope you do not get your feelings hurt in any way.
:banana:


I asked him to marry me once, he said ' maybe later honey ' I only do it as a joke, his girlfriend is a waitress here so she knows that nothing I say is serious. But it is hard having to make sure not to wink at him or something.... it's justin good fun... your sweet for caring :)

[Stanislaw]

So, I was watching T.V. yesterday, and it donned on me, that I should probably be studying, considering my finals are on monday... :eek2: :bawling:

[papayahed]

As long as you were watching TNG, I guess it's ok.

[Scheherazade]

buttercup
.

[imthefoolonthehill]

i wonder if that was meant for the word association page.

[Scheherazade]

No, it was meant to be here.

[Scheherazade]

Josephine, time for spring cleaning!

[Basil]

yes, ma'am!

[imthefoolonthehill]

if they truly do shoot canoes, i'd prefer to be in a rowboat.

[amuse]

and i'm supposed to know that my black sesame seeds are toasted how? :goof:

[Basil]

and i'm supposed to know that my black sesame seeds are toasted how? :goof:
Use a couple light-colored sesame seeds as a control group!

[imthefoolonthehill]

racist... those black sessame seeds always get the bad rap.

[Basil]

If you say so, whitey.

[imthefoolonthehill]

question: the spaces in your signature... do you need them?

[Basil]

The spaces bother you, do they? If you’ll notice, I don’t think the length of my posts are substantially increased. YOUR posts have spaces following the sig; I prefer to place the spaces in front of the sig. And this bothers you because . . . ?

[subterranean]

I can't believe someone can combine the word Mc with Happy

[imthefoolonthehill]

does anyone else hold conversations with people who exist, but aren't there?

like if you know or think you are going to confront someone or get into an argument, do you run through it if you have time?

[Anselmus]

um...yeah, I do :/

[Helga]

Saturdays suck, I hate having nothing to do. Well it's not like I do anything on weekdays either, so all days suck.

[Koa]

helga, every single post of yours i've seen in the past 2-3 days made me think that you're a past me, as in me-before-hungary. not that my life is much more full now, but my brain is a bit more willing to accept it.
so, where is that hole that leads us to time-travelling? we could have fun swapping places whenever we want to :D

anyway there is one thing that is so much worse than saturdays... it's called SUNDAYS.

[songfuse]

How would one benefit if world peace was suddenly the reason for world war 111?

[Basil]

How would one benefit if world peace was suddenly the reason for world war 111?

Are we already up to World War 111? I guess I somehow missed World Wars 3-110.

Man, I got to start paying attention to the news.

[Bongitybongbong]

Who won the last 100 some? :lol:

[Basil]

Probably the Prussians. They are a mighty empire.

[Bongitybongbong]

I thought that India won the wars 3-47. I guess not.

[Basil]

The Indians are no longer a threat. They are the perennial cellar-dwellers of the A.L. Central.

[Bongitybongbong]

well i know one thing...the Russians have taken Ecuador

[mono]

I can't believe someone can combine the word Mc with Happy
For some reason, sub, I laughed so hard at this - how witty!
Being a slight health-nut (except when consuming coffee) and vegetarian, I could never, myself, find the 'Happy' in 'Mc.'
Have you seen the film, Super-Size Me? - one of the best films regarding this subject. :)

[Helga]

I saw that movie, great. The guy came here to Iceland to promote it and seemed really conserned about the subject! It was amazing how his health and spirit 'went down the toilet' .I never go to Mcdonalds. (I suspect that was the reason for the McHappy thoughts) Like mono I'm a vegetarian and don't know a thing about this but Mc and happy dosen't sound right.

[Anselmus]

Since World Peace was brought up, this organization has recently started broadcasting on television (how I heard about it) - it's a hopeful idea, though I haven't read a lot about it yet.

The Millennium Hope Project (http://www.millennium-hope.com/) Calls for World Peace in Three Months.

IIIeEEeee......gotta sell my shares in General Dynamics......

Oh but if it were only possible the idealist in me screamed. Peace. PEACE!!An almost unimagineable state of being for humaninty as a whole...I suppose one can always fantasize and wish.......

[Bongitybongbong]

I am a superhero.

[Scheherazade]

I am a superhero.
Thanks for the warning! ;)

[Bongitybongbong]

Ha Ha Ha! That's funny.

[Taliesin]

Like mono I'm a vegetarian and don't know a thing about this but Mc and happy dosen't sound right.
You're right. Those scots are a grim folk, as far as we have heard.

On the other hand though, We don't see why McGyver couldn't be happy, after all, he could probably make the laughter gas out of a gum and a sticker.

[kilted exile]

Hey, we Scots aint really that grim. We're kinda like Shrek actually, pretty grumpy, like to keep to ourselves, however willing to help people (even if we do complain the entire time we are completing the task :D ).

[Scheherazade]

Hey, we Scots aint really that grim. We're kinda like Shrek actually, pretty grumpy, like to keep to ourselves, however willing to help people (even if we do complain the entire time we are completing the task :D ).
Does the likeness to Shrek end there? You don't use ear wax for candles, bathe in swamps or, most importantly have green skin???

[amuse]

why? are you looking for a date to match your green dress up there? :D

[Scheherazade]

As tempting as the idea sounds, I am not frequenting the dating circles anymore (luckily) ;)

[kilted exile]

Does the likeness to Shrek end there? You don't use ear wax for candles, bathe in swamps or, most importantly have green skin???

Yeah, the personality traits are pretty much the extent of my likeness to Shrek. However, I have benn informed by one person that I sounded like him (hey, its better than having to constantly recite Fat B******'s lines from the second Austin Power's movie "Get in ma belly!!!" *shudder*)

On a final note, you got summat against green people? --> :p

[Scheherazade]

Not at all... On the contrary, ever since watching E.T., it has been a dream of mine to meet a green person, which is why I inquired if the likeness ended there ;)

PS: By 'you', I meant Scotts, rather you personally by the way. :)

[kilted exile]

PS: By 'you', I meant Scotts, rather you personally by the way. :)

Ah, well thats another matter completely as in fact most scots are green, bathe in swamps and use ear wax for candles - I am just slightly higher on the evolutionary scale :D .

[Scheherazade]

Well, I know where I am going to be heading to next Bank Holiday then! :D

[imthefoolonthehill]

so whats going on eh? the captain said to the clown

well, sounds like a pie in the face won't be adequate any more.

thats ok, you can man the oars.

[kilted exile]

Reasons Why I Love Sunshine
1 There is no snow to shovel
2 I dont need to wear ten sweaters to go outside
3 People slow down and take life easier
4 I can shoot hoops in the driveway with my friends
5 Barbequeues
6 Ice-Cream

[Bongitybongbong]

I hate Clear Channel. They are *roars* the reason that all of the crappy
a*%ed music always plays.

[ihrocks]

Hear! hear! Mr. bongbong! Very well said!

[Bongitybongbong]

Thanks. I did some searching because I was tired of hearing the same song on every station.

[ihrocks]

Look for college radio, one of the handful of independent stations out there, or be old like me and play vinyl!

[Bongitybongbong]

thanks for the tip. I will.

[Sancho]

Clearchannel is the devil.

OK OK OK, so I was just out on my front porch enjoying a frosty adult beverage, when Lance Armstrong pedals by.

Go figure

[Bongitybongbong]

That's weird.

[Sancho]

It's true, it's true.

He's riding in the Tour of Georgia today. I'm sitting there looking for the US Postal Service Team Jerseys and my neighbor informs me that he's now riding for Discovery Team.

Ah well, it was really cool.

[papayahed]

It's true, it's true.

He was on some morning show today, talking about his Georgia ride, but mostly about his next, last Tour de France.

There is a girl in New York City
Who calls herself the human trampoline
And sometimes when I’m falling, flying
Or tumbling in turmoil I say
Oh, so this is what she means

-- Paul Simon, "Graceland"

ohhh I get it now, I always assumed that chick was a whore. ya know, trampoline...

[ihrocks]

Sometimes "whore" can be metaphorical.

[papayahed]

Sometimes "whore" can be metaphorical.


yeah, I know. I just like to sing the songs, not necessarily think about them.

[ihrocks]

I'm baking Jay's Apple Strudel! It's making me feel warm and comforted.

[Helga]

I am tired

[shortysweetp]

i am wondering where everyone is?? whats up with everyone not being on and posting i'm lonely :(

[baddad]

i am wondering where everyone is?? ......(

Hmmm......thats deep............and way too general........

[ihrocks]

Should I have another cigarette and then go tinkle, or should I tinkle first and then go have another cigarette? Are there people who can tinkle and smoke at the same time?

[papayahed]

Should I have another cigarette and then go tinkle, or should I tinkle first and then go have another cigarette? Are there people who can tinkle and smoke at the same time?

A question for the ages.

[Snukes]

Originality my ***.

[atiguhya padma]

The most peaceful places are those without people.

[papayahed]

The most peaceful places are those without people.


How would we know that?

[Sancho]

Perhaps without other people.

[Basil]

Sancho, do you live inside the perimeter, or outside?

[Sancho]

Hey Basil,

I live well outside of the perimeter.

In one of those suburban-hell-urban-sprawl neighborhoods. Yuk.

Anyhow, I’ve been looking for a fixer-upper in the city

[Basil]

Yeah, from what I understand even the fixer-uppers are kinda pricey!

[Sancho]

Boy I’ll tell ya… Atlanta is funny though, some of the least desirable places, ten years ago, are now some of the most sought after neighborhoods in town. Mid-town, College Park, even East Point is up and coming. I think that people here are just getting fed up with the commute and all of the carnage on the hiways. So even with the Fulton County “sir-charge” (higher taxes), it’d be nice to be able to park the car and walk to work.

[Taliesin]

Random amusing thought of the day (http://www.hot.ee/rvd7/nali.htm)

[Snukes]

I *know* I shouldn't think that's so funny. I've very slow to say any person deserves a cruel joke, but that person might have been close.

I don't suppose she'll have learned a lesson...

*wanders off snickering*

[imthefoolonthehill]

... kind of makes you feel good about yourself, doesn't it?

i need to surround myself with people that stupid, just as a self-esteem booster.

i have to wonder if the other person was faking it. It would make much more sense.

Stupidity that complete seems ... too frightening to contemplate.

[amuse]

:) *wishes for bright sunshiny emoticon* thank goodness the sun came out! yesterday reminded me of winter. :( now to dry the towel on the radiator. naughty, naughty leaking window.

now to continue both reading a brilliant play and packing. lotsa fun, wanna help? i've tea and cookies.

[ihrocks]

I'll take some tea and cookies!

What needs packing?

[ihrocks]

Change is sad.

[amuse]

yes it is. so much is changing this month...

um, all of my belongings need packing, but fortunately the place is furnished, and since leaving n. cal i haven't bought a new bed, table etc. but the books! the clothes! the bric-a-brac! (oh the bric-a-brac!) the kitchen necessities. that sort of thing. tons of papery stuff i can't seem to part with.
oh, yes. the air conditioner will be heavy the ironing board bulky, as well as the iron-trellised plant stand...the silliest article is, of course, the sewing machine that a good friend gave me. i haven't threaded a bobbin in almost 30 years.

i will! be excited to move once again in three months; am going to search out places in the art museum area.

what kind of tea? green (from japan), loose black (from the mediterannean store around the corner), or herbal? and here are vanilla sandwich cremes. :) as well as loads of jelly beans and twizzlers.

[Snukes]

Unless we're talking change for buying a pack of gum with a $100 bill.

[Helga]

I am very tired, maybe because I couldn't sleep last night. well who cares I can sleep in tomorrow.

**"Certain limitations on the board, Vague on purpose***

Humans can only make moral judgements that are binding upon themselves. We don't have the capacity to see clearly enough that our vision encompasses others. And no one of us is infallible. And so what if a group of friends is as one entity, and in all respects 'with' each other? The earth will not crumble, the sky will not shed tears, dark clouds are not coaxed into existence by a terrorized morality. It is our own fears initializing beautiful butterflies within our stomach, it is our inner convictions tested as truth, it is our recognition of more enlightenment to come, a fresh sprout of our previously claimed enlightenment cracking through the reality, through a weak facade, that stirs gleeful learnings, stirs recognition. That 'charged-up' feeling within is the stirring of the blood, an encouraging acceptance of what we thought we truly believed was infact truly believed by us, and was not just some posturing on our own part, not some little way of fooling ourselves or others into thinking we are at peace with ourselves and the world we exist in, but was and is the truth of our own wants, a reflection our own needs, a need for the capacity to understand purely. To be needed, trusted, and loved. And to understand. Life doesn't get any better than that.

Bogart the First -- to hog the joint all to yourself instead of passing it on.

[Jay]

Isn't it too early in the morning to have a thought? :angel:

[ihrocks]

It's always too early in the morning to have a thought, but the damn things show up anyway! I wonder if I turn all the lights back off they'll think I'm not at home and leave me alone?

[Jay]

Might work if you wish hard enough :p

[ihrocks]

Nope. They're ganging up on me. I'm outnumbered! Help!

[ihrocks]

Play it loud enough and no one can hear you cry.

[Sancho]

He he, - good one.

Mine's domestic:

I stink at yard work.

[subterranean]

Damn Office WORk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


apologize...but I need that............

[imthefoolonthehill]

well, i should have seen this one coming.

[Jack_Aubrey]

haven't been here in a while
her i am though

[Koa]

im really the shadow of my past, serious self. I found out today in a random conversation that on friday there will be an exam i need to take (for the second time...ehm..) but I didnt register on time...I think i can go and do it anyway but what if it is a problem? This messes up my plans a bit, if I cant or dont pass it again...and friday is not really far...now it s a silly test so studying is secondary, but as the first time wasnt succesful (for 1 point!) I'd better be careful...damn damn damn.

[subterranean]

For the second time...


DAmNNNNNNNNNNNN office WorK....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


(And again)...apologize, but I need that.....

[Veritas]

Change your job and smile :-))

[subterranean]

Thank you veritas...I will, but not until I find one which pays higher than the present...I got some stuffs to pay ;)

[Veritas]

LOL @ sub... - who doesn't have to pay for "this" and "that"...

sometimes I wish I could retire... :-)

[subterranean]

I like your spirit..

[fayefaye]

I can't believe this thread is still going. ... I wonder what vampires would do if they lived at one of the poles in the summer and had to put up with sunlight all the time...

[baddad]

this is actually one of the more entertaining threads....


And in reply to F.F.'s wonderment above........sunblock 5000 and whale blubber blood.........

[mono]

Good question, fayefaye. In a hospital care setting, I often wonder with phlebotomists with their vampire-like tendencies; they arrive before sunrise, take patients' blood, then disappear, 'analyzing,' they say :lol:; when the night comes, they arrive again, take more blood.

[Dyrwen]

The concept of an anti-social person blogging is an interesting portrayal of just how much someone can talk to themselves because they don't expect comments to come from their blogs, just understanding from talking about it in an open medium with themselves.

Just noticed the thought while reading a year backwards into my own.

[papayahed]

hmmm... Drywen got me thinking, plus I keep getting caught. How many people talk to themselves? in public?

[Scheherazade]

Talking to yourself and getting caught is not that bad... Worst is when I laugh to myself and get caught... :rolleyes:

[Jay]

Then people realise you really are crazy and not only faking it :D

[papayahed]

Talking to yourself and getting caught is not that bad... Worst is when I laugh to myself and get caught... :rolleyes:

yep, especially when your alone in your office and this pic pops up:

[Helga]

I'm always talking to myself, and laughing at myself. I often get cought but people know I'm crazy so they don't expect anything else.

A few days ago was sitting on the ground outside my house talking to my dog and my neighbour cought me, that was so weird, he stared at me like there was something wrong with a 19 year old girl sitting on the ground chatting with her dog. Well he went inside and two minuets later his girlfriend came, I actually think she was scared, she walked slowly staring at me and then she ran to the house...wonder why? ;)

[amuse]

:lol: roflmao that's great! :D

How many Jude Laws are there? And why are they all stalking me?

[Taliesin]

If everything is well, then we probably participated at a Guiness World Record today.

[Helga]

Cute dogs, Basil. My big brother is moving out, gonna live in the capital city with his galfriend.......I'm gonna miss him, and Mr.Spock will too.

[amuse]

i had a simultaneously gut-wrenchingly awful and lovely day.

the upside was when i was at a friend's house, and her daughter's two new baby kitties (my guess is 8 weeks) hung out, and made friends, with me. i was even kissed! the black one (the other's gray, with very indistinct stripes (the kisser)) snuggled into my sweater and slept on my lap for two, mark them, two hours. yes i was immobilized, are you kidding - me move??? :p he didn't even want to play with his brother, squealed when he started swatting him cuz he was so comfy. :)

so in love!!!!

cuties :D

[ihrocks]

Oh good grief! Cute fluffy Kittens! The bane of the internet!

But that isn't my random thought of the day. I think it too often for it to be random.

My random thought of the day is: Why is my pet bunny looking at me like that and should I worry?

[Basil]

Your bunny is looking at you like that because:

http://www.fanstory.com/usr/biopics1/67799/pancake_bunny_small.JPG

HE HAS A PANCAKE ON HIS HEAD! BE AFRAID . . . BE VERY AFRAID!

[Helga]

ihrocks, you should worry. Bunnies will take over the world one day, and you have their leader. I suggest you do anything it wants and not to make eye-contact, it will steal your soul!

my random thought is: am I paranoid?!.....

[mono]

HE HAS A PANCAKE ON HIS HEAD! BE AFRAID . . . BE VERY AFRAID!
:lol: Where do you find these things, Basil? Hilarious! :lol:

[Koa]

my random thought is: am I paranoid?!.....


Oh no, you should say it Garbage-style: "I think I'm paranoid *insert guitar here*":D

mono, when I read your nickname I always sing that song in my mind...but I don't know which song it is and I'm too shy to sing it ;) and I'm not sure it really says 'mono' anyway... random enough, I'd say.

[mono]

mono, when I read your nickname I always sing that song in my mind...but I don't know which song it is and I'm too shy to sing it ;) and I'm not sure it really says 'mono' anyway... random enough, I'd say.
Hmm, you have triggered my curiosity, Koa. Worry not, even if you did sing it, I could not hear you, but how do some of the lyrics go, or who wrote the song?

[Bongitybongbong]

And all shall fall to the enduring power of the deadman...find the horror here (http://members.aol.com/RacerX319/UTaker2.html)

When looked at through aging eyes that don't have their glasses on first thing in the morning, the letters in young Master Bongbong's name do a delightful ballet that the rest of you are missing!

[Jay]

No worries, IHrocks ;), Bong's letter are doing the ballet thing even with one's glasses on ;)

[ihrocks]

You're right! They do! Very bouncy!

[ihrocks]

I have a chocolate voodoo doll!

[Jay]

CONGRATS!
Eat it then :D

[ihrocks]

I can't eat it until I determine it's identity -- ex-boss from hell? Best Friend in All the World's Evil Landlady (soon to be ex-Landlady)? The Blip person who dislikes Dancing Nana? The possibilities are endless and I want to make sure I choose wisely.

[baddad]

Eating your chocolate land-lady or the enemy of the dancing nana? Obvious choice. Eat the banana hating fiend!!! *hopes he eats the head first*

Current Thoughts:
- Ever wonder why the many good things that you did went unnoticed but the one bad thing you did, no matter how insignificant, was exposed right away?
- I was born a Catholic but am not really religious, but I get offended when people attack Christianity in general. Is it me or Christians are being oppressed? It seems like they are accepted only as long as they don't talk about their faith to non-believers. Also, the attacks that come from atheists usually are directed specifically to Christians. If these atheists truly don't believe in any gods, why don't they attack other religions? The Hindu, for example, I believe have more gods they could make fun of, so why Christians? Why not Jews? Is it because they were victims during the WW II? Why not Muslims? Because they were also somewhat persecuted shortly after the 9/11 attack? So why isn't it right to attack these other religions but it's okay to attack Christians? It's not like all Christians are fundamentalists who like to force everything down everyone's throat, right? Why do people notice only the bad representation of a group but not the good ones? I'm rambling but lately this has been getting on my nerves and I need to get that out.

[Dyrwen]

Random thought in response: It's because most atheists were Christians at one time, as far as America is concerned, so they know it best. What better to debunk than the previous religion one adhered to? They also are just about the only religion trying to get their less than popular teachings into schools or law. The "no gay marriage" thing, the "anti-evolution" debates, the whole abortion problem. A lot of things that people hold in high regard that Christianity usually opposes. No one complains at Hindus since they never prostylitize, Muslims usually keep to themselves as far as converting others, etc for other religions. For the most part, more people know about Christianity, so they debate it and argue against it. No one knows a lot about the other religions around, so the only questions those people get asked are about their religion, rather than what's wrong with their religion. It's easier to dislike what you know, than to learn something new just to dislike it. heh

why are girls so dramatic all the time? I wonder, we often really suck

[Jay]

Don't think it's much of a matter of gender.

[caspian]

Why should I wait for damn paper for 9 months, isn't it same period for having baby? heh.

[Helga]

Don't think it's much of a matter of gender.


I hope so, that would make me feel a lot better! I just see more of girls drama scenes than boys....

[Jay]

I guess girls go dramatic about different kinds of things than guys, possibly doing the dramatic bit a little different than guys as well, but then there's always the exceptions :)

Not all girls are hysterical and not all guys are 'macho'. Have I already said I wasn't too keen on stereotypes? :)

[kilted exile]

Think I agree with Jay on this one, I know quite a few guys who do the overdramatic woe is me bit as well as any girl.

[ihrocks]

If only I did half the things people think I do, I'd have a really interesting life.

getting a visa, caspian?
by the way, havent seen you arouns much lately, nice to see you here :)

[ajoe]

Random Thought:
I just spent $70 on clothes. I didn't think those pieces of clothing, which seemed cheap individually, would add up to that number. I'm still in a sort of a shock now cause I never spent that much on clothes before. Heck, I never spent that much on shopping before. Maybe I could/should work extra hours to compensate today's wasting of money.

On a lighter note, I find it amusing that a size-S male's shirt suits me just fine but I have to settle with a size-L female's shirt. (The shirts were made by the same company.)

[caspian]

getting a visa, caspian?
by the way, havent seen you arouns much lately, nice to see you here :)

yes, Koa, you got!
Nice to see you too, I'm glad that you're not lost like me. :D Are you stil out of Italy for study?

Well Camper, there isn't many "fun" going on in this forum....


It didn't look too much like a party to me (figuratively speaking) :)

[amuse]

mmph. i missed! the non-party - and spent all day today with a mommy friend (of which i am very glad). :)
however, because my power supply on desktop died second thing yesterday morning, i get to spend all night in the computer lab tied to pc #75 by cranial nerves II, III, IV, V1 and VI. oh joy! oh coffee!

[subterranean]

Oh coffee...Yes, Ash...I a cup of coffee will heal the day :nod:

[amuse]

not to mention: i have some lovely apple strudel and vanilla ice cream to ease my way through this long, long night! as well as the last of the quiche...maybe i should get the coffee now...am obviously not typing my paper. :D

[subterranean]

Are you trying to make me jealous?

[amuse]

of course! :p

you like apple streudel? i'll make you some - come visit, you and Jay. and anyways, the vanilla ice cream morphed into whipped topping somewhere along the way...so that's less enviable, yes?

A good phrase that helped me memorize the twelve cranial nerves in order:
"On occasion our trusty truck acts funny, very good vehicle anyhow."

Key:
On (olfactory)
Occasion (optic)
Our (oculomotor)
Trusty (trochlear)
Truck (trigeminal)
Acts (abducens)
Funny (facial)
Very (vestibularcochlear)
Good (glossopharyngeal)
Vehicle (vagus)
Any (accessory)
How. (hypoglossal)

Good luck, amuse! :)

[amuse]

thanks, mono! final for kinesiology exam on tues. :)

btw, do you love the ear, too? i just found out that my brother and i have overly sensitive hearing due to our nana on dad's side - she could hear people whisper in the next room (yeah, don't tell secrets around me, lol).

we used
Oh, Oh, Oh, To Touch And Feel Very Green Veggies At Harvest :D i forget the one we used a couple of years ago, but it's in my text. something much more sterile sounding.

paper, however, is due in 8 hours (or 8 degrees, as we nurses will write in shorthand :)); it's on coming of age in mississippi: so chock full of this that and the everything else. egads! fortunately i have 387 of 400 points right now so will be hard pressed not to get an a in history. but they'd no popcorn at 7-11 just now! :eek: and there is way to much info to squeeze into 5 little pages.

so it begins (see below), though i may revise it because of a particularly telling line: "We've gotta be the ones to give [the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments] meaning...you should be bold and crazy enough to ask [Mr. Charlie] a few more questions...Like 'what am I free to do?'"

“We shall overcome/We shall overcome/We shall overcome some day-ay-ay-ay-ay” are words of conviction, as evidenced by ‘shall.’ The melody is a hymn, and this is a prayer. It is very definitely a prayer, for these words would not have to be sung ever, would not ever spring from hearts of any but persons who were deeply, formidably oppressed. Anne Moody, a junior at Tougaloo University, Mississippi in 1960, sang these words frequently with fellow classmates and SNCC activists. They were sung en masse during The March on Washington, on March 18, 1963. The lyrics of this song epitomize the struggle and determination of black people seeking to throw off their shackles (visible and invisible), in the United States of America. Anne Moody grew up in one of America’s most virulently racist state of and risked her life and freedom to help secure those very things for her fellow blacks. She was one of many heroic persons working in the Civil Rights Movement. Her autobiography, Coming of Age in Mississippi, details striking horrors and sentiments pertinent only to this time, as well as the joys and tribulations relevant to any downtrodden group and to any young person approaching adulthood.

yes, Jay that's all i have right now. :p

sorry this is so blinkin long

Ash, you'll make a good mommy ;)

So are you free this Saturday? I'll call Jay :p

Oooh...is that in Slovakia? You, know on saturday I'll be in Hungary*, that's not far away...shame I don't like Strudel (we call it the Austrian way)... I really can't stand cooked apples yuck.

* In a moment of madness after 3 days of indecision I decided to go for a few days joining a friend who was going... Now I'm not so happy about that choice, I mean I have so much to do here cos exams are many and near, plus a couple more weeks of work... I didnt NEED Hungary to lift my spirits and keep me active that much... But I wished so much to see my city in the middle of Spring...
I wonder if the spanish crew will manage to keep me up till 6am every night again in useless pastimes...It's unfortunately likely...I'm weak.

[Jay]

Yup, it's in Slovakia. And cooked apples are YUMMY!!! *drools*

Random Thought Of The Day: I wonder how my motorcycle would look with a few holographic dancing 'nanas prancing aroung the gas tank........and can monkeys swim?

[Scheherazade]

..and can monkeys swim?
So it seems:

Some monkeys can swim, like Debrazza guenons Cercopithecus neglectus, Allen’s swamp monkeys Allenopithecus nigroviridis, and proboscis monkeys Nasalis larvatus. They may swim across a stream or river to avoid predators or get to food, and Allen’s swamp monkeys even "go fishing” by laying leaves or grass on top of the water, and grabbing fish that come to hide underneath.

Ok, this aint my thought (credit goes to roommate for this one). Wouldn't it be cool to put an aerosol canister inside a chicken (dead, of course) & then put it on a barbeque and see how far it would fly?

I'd give it a try, let me know how far it goes, actually an aersol can might be too explosive, you may want to try an ordinary can of beans, I know those can fly pretty far. ohhhh, or maybe try both and chart the results...

whoo-hoo! i got an 89 in kinesiology. which is wonderful, because the anatomy portion had me sweating and the physio portion recontemplating suicide! :) yay!!! (j.k. ;)) although i really wanted a 90. :(

btw, this is how our course went: skip all around the text (mind you, i came from a college where we went straight through, not in random order, and our instructors encouraged participation, homework, drawing, activities, microscopes and familiarity with plaster and preserved body parts). all horribly missing at temple uni. horrible resources. i'd no need for my lovely histology atlas, among other things, grr.
the result being that the average for our first curved physio exam (all lectures physio, all labs anatomy, with a 67/33 grade emphasis :() was a 51!!! my lab t.a. even got that score when she took the exam. :eek:

needless to say, i'm thrilled with my grade and deeply disappointed with this school's curriculum.

end of rant.

although i would advise persons considering nursing careers to go to santa rosa junior college or villanova. villanova (pennsylvania) was rated one of the top three schools in the country re: nursing, and srjc has a fantabulous labs and amazing instructors. i wish i'd remained there but as we all know, i became homesick.

Today, in gym class.
We played soccer and moved backwards and then we disappeared. Or so it seemed to others. We just felt a jolt of pain through our skull and it went black for a second and we were lying down in a steeplechase hole.
We were feeling really dizzy when going back to school and in there. And then we had to do a test in German. Not a good thing.

Now we are more-less okay. A bit dizzy but not much.

Again, this last week seemed very, very busy, in which I so badly craved spare time to sleep in, do some leisure reading, and maybe write a little bit. Once the weekend appears, I finally find the spare time, then feel bored, and crave something to occupy my time. :rage:

eheh mono....that's how life works... (ask schopenhauer ;)). On Tuesday or wednesday I'll finish to work and I know I'll feel such a void in my life...not really much spare time as I'm supposed to study as the exams are so dangerously near and I'm later than ever with the studying... but having no job anymore will leave with no excuse, I'll have no choice but studying...and then I'll start to feel useless again but have the alibi of the exams, and then July and the last exams will come and then a big question mark dressed up in a sense of useleness will cover my life :S
Or something.
