    *Hugs Dom* Sometimes we've just got to figure these things out for ourselves in our own time. If you were not "cheating with the computer", you would be cheating with work or the grocery store or the cable guy when your partner has that sort if insecurity. You don't need that kind of greif and "fixing it" is higher maintenance than a house with a cracked foundation.
  2. Simplest answer: Water can not exist in the liquid state at temps above 100C. Boiling is water becoming water vapor and escaping as steam. It takes a constant input of heat to keep water boiling because the water loses energy as the steam escapes.
  3. Try putting together images and text to tell a fun story. I'll go first. _________________________________________________________ ScIeNce fRiction There's one in every crowd. Quick! Pull over. The distortion in the time-space continium is gonna make me hurl. The mutations it causes are a bitch too.
  4. Many in South Mississippi had insurance at the time that Katrina struck and the insurance companies weaseled out of paying. Insurance sounds like a good idea but let the buyer beware- they are in business to take your money and deny your claims if they can get away with it.
  5. Six fires have merged into one huge firestorm. Here in Mississippi, we won't soon forget the Aussies that helped during hurricane Katrina. Please take care down there.
  6. Toads and frogs are very different species. Almost all toads are inedible. Toads have glands on their back that secrete substances that are either foul tasting or even toxic. Some species of toads release a toxin that are hallucinagenic to humans hence you hear of some buzz starved people "toad licking". Before you try it, the toads with hallucinagenic properties are fairly rare. Most toads that you might try licking in North America will simply taste horrible and won't take you anywhere near cartoon-land.
  7. well- at least no one can accuse us of being vegtable-tarians. We talk to bloody much.
  8. Frog Legs Ready in: < 30 minutes Difficulty: 3 (1=easiest :: hardest=5) Serves/Makes: 4 Ingredients: 1 egg -- beaten 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 pounds frog legs 1/2 cup cornmeal 1/8 teaspoon pepper 1/2 cup cooking oil Directions: Mix the egg, corn meal, salt and pepper together to form a batter. Dip the frog legs into the batter, then fry in the oil in a large heavy skillet for 25 minutes, turning so they brown evenly on all sides.
  9. With all due respect Pai Kun, black-mail, sexual assault and scams were around long before then internut was ever dreamed of. It (the internut) takes a beating for being a haven for porn and perverts but it is simply a new venue for the same old crap that's been going on for decades. The internut is not twisted: it is simply being used by twisted people who would be doing the same crap somewhere else. Blaming the technology is ignoring human nature which is very often predatory on all sorts of levels. And yes- I call it the internut because, like a true democracy, it gives every idiot with a keyboard and an html manual the same voice.
  10. It's only natural that Daniel Radcliff wants to distance himself from child roles. Every child star that continues on to have an adult career must do so. As the public face of the the firmly established Harry Potter frachise, it's probably going to be more difficult for Radcliff to break away from that image than most.
  11. Miley Cyrus is a mildly talented pre-fab Disney kid star much like the Jonas Brothers. Beleive me: these guys have no original thoughts that the Disney Corp didn't have first. They don't think or write for themselves and you can be damned sure that they stay well clear of the typical sex, drugs of rock & roll scandals. If they say or do anything even mildly offensive the Disney PR machine will go on a full court press to clean up the mess. They are Disney's answer to the Boy Bands which fell out of favor after the rather lurid Perlman scandles*. There was a marketing void left by the demise of the Boy Bands and Disney grabbed it with both hands. They are typically clean-cut fresh faced pretty boys and girls that don't scare parents or address any issues any more difficult than birthday parties and yapping on the phone. They are every bit as pre-fabbed as Perlman's bands ever were are are plain vanillia eye-candy for pre-adolescents. They deserve no ones attention over the age of 14. When the Jonas Brothers appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone, I canceled my subscription because it was clear that they were no longer relevant and were nothing more than a political propaganda rag-a-zine. They are a plain vanillia corperate property and don't expect anything more edgy than bubble-gum from them. __________________________________________ * Perlman Notes Lou Perlman's Wiki Page NYT: The Sleezeball Behind Boy Bands Boy Bands
  12. Frogs can't be satanic....their legs are way to delicious. If they were satanic, they would taste like a healthy salad or something good for you according to the food nazis.
  13. I once thought about uploading nude pictures of myself but stopped when I thought of all the systems that would lock up and moniters that would explode.
  14. Astro Empires is a complex game that allows you to build a small empire while you expoore the galaxy, fight off rivals and colonize planets and moons. I've been playing for a while on the Delta and Fenix server. It's really quite good but it is complex. You have to develop an economy, research technologies, build the factories and shipyards for the ships that you send out to explore/plunder/conquer the galaxy. There are a number of servers: Alpha, Beta, Ceti, Epsilon and Fenix. Each server hosts a cluster of dozens of galaxies, hundreds of thousands of planets and thousands of players. The game has its predatory aspects but level protection keeps really big guys from preying on the small fry. You are exempt from attacks for a week while you get established. You can join a guild or alliance to protect you as you develop. There are four aspects to the game: economy, technology, defense and fleet. You have to keep those fundamentals balanced or you'll soon find trouble. I am just over level 30 in both galaxies that I play in. In Delta I just finished off Operation Watchtower where my team hit every major enemy base and fleet concentration in my alliances galaxy in a 32 hour window. It was an amazing success. This allowed our us to launch an offensive to drive all of our rivals out of our space. In the Fenix galaxy my guild just finished a raid on an ajoining galaxy populated by a rival alliance. We used misdirection to get them out of position and entered their galaxy from a unexpected direction. For 48 hours we laid waste to their economy, destroyed their fleets and liberated our holdings. Before you sign on, there is a lot to learn. Check out the 7 bases in 7 days gameplan that shows tou how to get firmly established. Take note of the various guilds on the server that you pick to play. There are a lot of variables. Fenix is the newest server and I got in on it on day one. _______________________________________ I rate it: cool
  15. Maybe this is where the rainbow came from??? Most people aren't so limited in their tastes and got tired of carrying around forty different hankies. Thus the rainbow was adopted by people who were confused and tired by a self-limiting system. GET AWAY FROM ME WITH THAT FIST!!! WTF are you planning for that gerbil???
  16. In Mississippi, snow and ice are rare. We get snow/ice storms about once every 2-3 years. When we do get it, we're paralysed until its over. Back in the day it used to mean party- we'd get whatever (OK booze & weed) and pile into a house with a fireplace. At one of these snow-parties an orgy broke out that we weren't really prepared for. You'ld be amazed at what you can use olive oil for.
  17. Slang can vary wildly from one city to the next. It is really not that unusual to have very different sayings/expressions from one city to another. When I was a kid we had a student from New York to transfer in. Needless to say a kid from Queens in a redneck school in the deep south- we were a people divided by a common language. It didn't matter to me- he was a cute little Italian boy and it was love at first sight for me. Marco and I were friends for years until he joined the navy and we lost track.
  18. What would a white hankie mean? I give up?
  19. I call it spawning because at my age it involves a lot of flopping around and gasping for breath.
  20. Silly people! It's Sandstorm by DaRude
  21. I wouldn't worry about it. Press treatment of Medical research tends to be as sensationalistic as possible. When you read the fine print you find that their sample size was very small or the study was backed by the KKK or Jebus freaks.
  22. If they want a good original script, they should talk the the Tanuki Racoon.
  23. I hate Hollywood. They are super-rich, self-absorbed, out of touch perverts that suck big floppy donkey dix. They are too busy pushing causes no one gives a crap about to come up with an original script. Since they've done and redone their own movies until we're sick of them, they need to steal good movies from other cultures since they are singulary incapable of original thought.
  24. LOL Kelly Green! I guess it beats figuring out in the dark that you arte sexually incompatible. ________________________________ Oh my God!! What did you do with your fist??? You had a red hankie didn't you? No you idiot, my hankie is light blue- you can't tell in this light. Awe GROSS, I'm gonna kill who ever is peeing on me!!!
  25. LOL He's a woosie compared to me.
