  1. Study: Tiger Poo Effective Pest Repellent 03/10/2011 Source Link: Animal Planet Blog Researchers in Australia have discovered that the smell of tiger feces is a great deterrent for crop-chewing creatures like goats and kangaroos. The idea is that the smell of a predator nearby will keep these animals away from certain plants. A team of researchers at the University of Queensland in Australia spread tiger poo collected from zoos near the feeding troughs of goats and found it to be the most effective repellent. It was even more effective when the tiger had been fed goat. (editors note: Oh yeah. That's repelling me.) "There's not only a chemical signal in the feces that says 'Hooly dooley, this is a dangerous animal'; it's 'Hooly dooley, this is a dangerous animal that's been eating my friends,'" explained Peter Murray, associate professor and study leader. Researchers believe a synthetic tiger poo smell could be created and turned into a commercial product. _____________________________________________________________________ Oh my God! Can You imagine the size of that tiger? >
  2. 8.9 is massive. That's in the same ballpark as the quakes that spawned the Christmas tsunami. This will be a huge disaster.
  3. You can't turn on the TV or go on the tubes of the internets without running into the crackhead formerly known as Charlie Sheen. After regaling us with tales of "socially" using crack and talking his way into getting fired from a shitty shit-com, he's now suing everybody in Hollywood not playing along. I make no secret of being in recovery. In fact I help other addicts if I can. It's part of the 12 steps that Charlie THE CRACKHEAD is too good for. To be perfectly honest, we dread crack heads. Of all the junkies that we have to deal with, they are by far the sickest mother f**kers you'll ever have the sorry experience of meeting. Sometime they preach about how God will fix everything, make a pass at everybody in the room, steal something and we never see them again. That's my favorite kind of crack head: the kind I never have to see again. Sometimes they are so f**ked up they just can't make sense if they could pay for it. They've done so much they're borderline psychotic. They babble, talk to themselves and wander around. This kind will drop a few loose teeth and wander away. They always end up in prison. It's the only place that can handle them. Finally we have the supreme bullshit artists: the manic crack heads like Charlie Sheen. They think they are bigger than God and bullet proof. None of the rules apply to them. They are sexier than stallions and usually rich enough to stay in rock until it kills them. These f**k-tards are the most annoying bastards on the planet. And regardless of how many people love them, how many people clean up their messes, how many people cover for them, give them alibis or enable them, they are all going down the tubes and they are taking anybody that hangs on to them with them. Look away. This is going to end badly. Only a fool would care when they don't care about themselves.
  4. Here's a few more: 1). Get a GPS and learn to use it- if you have to routinely find addresses, it will save you many, many miles of driving around looking. 2). Keep your oil changed on schedule- proper lubrication makes your engine run more efficiently and will last longer. 3). Keep your vehicle tuned up- again, an engine that is properly tuned will run more efficiently and will last longer. 4). Keep your tires properly inflated- the drag of tires with low pressure will lower your gas mileage and wear out your tires prematurely. Those four steps will save you a lot of money- not just on gas but on wear and tear on your vehicle.
  5. I live in da hood. I'd go out and taker pictures but I left my flak-jacket at work.
  6. The BIG GAY AGENDA doesn't have to destroy heterosexual marriage. It looks like heterosexuals are doing a fine job of it on their own without any help from us. < WTF do you mean by the morals of a tom-cat!?
  7. The Barlow Boy Peter Keegan parked his Honda behind the Family Life Center on the sprawling grounds of the Calvary Baptist Church. He didn’t really have time for what he had to do but it went with the job. He reluctantly got out of his car and headed toward his office. He had lucked out to get the job of Youth Minister for a large suburban church. He had prayed for it for months and gave all of the credit to God. It was just the right sort of stepping stone that a young Minister needs
  8. Another Day at the Shiloh Baptist Church
  9. Another day at the Shiloh Baptist Church.
  10. Nope. been there, done that. been accused of being with the devil. Rather date crazy people. They can take medications and get better.
  11. This is why you immediately execute pirates once they are caught. It was the policy of every navy up until the thirties. Make the risk not worth the reward. BTW- a federal judge released some pirates last year because the navy didn't read them their rights.
  12. You don't really have to go this far to find them. The Internets are full of trolls. Even the nice kids are getting pissed. This jackwagon gets around.
  13. Hollywood is always patting itself on the back for creating mediocre products. What they consider "good", I wouldn't piss on if it was on fire. I don't doubt that the movie in question is bad. I just think that they should add a ton of movies to it like their un-funny comedies, porno romances, not so mysterious mysteries and action movies that I could sleep through.

  15. it depends... -on whether it is well done -does it make sense or is the story a spank-fest? -is this story about sex with an incidental plot? -are the characters interesting and hot
  16. Check it: I Corinthians 13: 4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. 13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. _____________________________________________ Does that sound anything like the gospel according to Westburo? No. Those or the passages that they routinely ignore. This is why they fail. It's why so many big suburban mega-churches fail. When they gleefully pronounce eternal damnation on people, they forget the very spirit of the religion that they supposedly embrace. For them it becomes about money, power and prestige when it is really about the humility of a carpenter that never wrote a book, owned a horse, contributed money to a politician and certainly never went to speaking engagements on a leer jet. Forgive them father for they know not what they do. Now they have more in common with the Roman soldiers that actually crucified him than the followers of Christ.
  17. I collect minerals. Today I got new specimens: Wulfenite The crystals are PbMoO4 which makes them a key source of molybdenum. Amazing that lead would make beautiful red-orange crystals. The sample came from Mexico. Vanadinite The crystals in Vanadinite are Pb5(VO4)3Cl. It is a major source of the industrial metal Vandium. What other hobbies do GA members have?
  18. I'm sad to hear that. There are many Brits that I think well of.
  19. John- This is perfectly plausible. Many people suffer memory loss while they are drunk. They may remember bits and pieces but they'll never put the puzzle back together again. Alcohol interferes with the way the brain stores memories. "Blackouts" are common among drinkers. A person will act normally but won't remember a thing. This tends to happen to young people who drink to much too fast for their body weight or older heavy drinkers. eg. They will often go out drinking and not remember how they got home or any details about the night. Blackout drinking is one of a cluster of symptoms that indicate alcoholism.

  20. Labels are useful. Labels tell the stock boys where to stack the mayonnaise on the store racks. Where labels are not useful is in making judgments about people because that sort of label doesn't list the ingredients. You can't look at a persons label and tell whether they are full of loyalty and truthfulness or if they are just full of crap. By the time you have made that determination, the damage is already done.
  21. In every city of any size, there is a place where like-minded people meet to get their freak on. You can look directly at it and not see it unless you know what’s going on. You can get anything you want there, but it will cost you. That’s the nature of things. It is never a destination. It’s a place in between tedium and suburbia. It’s an impulse turn from the daily routine; a guilty pleasure that you can feel guilty about after you feel the rush of the forbidden. It’s a strange kind of fer
  22. I finished my first week of work in a permanent job this afternoon. It's been a long time since I knew where my next check was coming from. Don't get me wrong. Contracts can be fun- if you can get enough work to survive. It's feast or famine and way too much famine. I don't make the same hourly rate but I'll make much more over the long haul because of consistency. No weeks (or months *shudders*) in between. It's so good to go home for the weekend and know the job will be there on Monday. Maybe I'll even mellow out because the stress of uncertainty is no longer there. I wouldn't count on it.
  23. Nachos for everybody!
