thread for whatever

[RedsoxRockies]

I was thinking it would be a neat idea if we had a thread just to talk about whatever. I dunno if you guys agree with me, but it could be pretty neat.

That's how most of our threads become unstitched, anyway!

Well, if we had higher quality thread and better seamstresses...

:p

[ohms_law]

I like cake

[RickD]

I want to go on record that this won't end well......

Yuummmmm Cake.......Chocolate!

[Rongar]

How many pushups can you "seamstresses" do?

[RickD]

I'm working on 10 total for my entire lifetime....I think I am at 5.....I might try 1 every 4 or 5 years.....

Ahem...let me try to make this thread a bit more civil..

Perhaps you guys have seen this already, but I couldn't resist; if you've ever wondered what rap really means, someone has taken the time to explain them via Microsoft tools.

I like pie too, but cake is better.

[RedsoxRockies]

I like pie too, but cake is better.

not quite what i meant, i meant more along the lines about just talking about going on in the world and where you are or whos in jail or what not. So basically it is like a thread that has a bunch of threads in it. and ohms, i would have to say pie and cake are equal. provide a logical reason whiy one is better.

[ohms_law]

Cake is sweeter

[RedsoxRockies]

Cake is sweeter

ya i guess that is logical enough

[RickD]

cake.....pizza is better though.....yumm...pepporoni......

[Alloutwar]

ohm's - i've always wanted to ask - is your avatar a tennis racquet? Are you a big tennis player?

[ohms_law]

lol

Someone else said that a while back to. No, it's not a tennis racquet. It's a silicon wafer with chip patterns on it.

[HoustonGM]

I always thought it was a racquet. ****.

[ohms_law]

heh

...I wonder if I can find a better picture
humm

[Alloutwar]

I just blew that one up in MSPaint...I still don't see it.

I'm going with Tennis Racquet.

[ohms_law]

There, how's that?

by the way, here's the full size original image:14926
That one uses copper, which is why it's a golden color. Then new one doesn't... it's a more classic look.

[Alloutwar]

Hmm...looks a little too rainbow-ey for my idea of Ohms Law. I prefer thinking of you as a big Agassi fan.

But, it is large and more easily discernable as a microchip...or perhaps a failing stoplight? Or like a Lego sculpture.

[HoustonGM]

Lego, for sure.

[Wassit3]

i thought I would stop by and class this thread up a bit and mention that micheal jackson has started a new child care center where he will personally baby sit your kids for you, no kids over 12 allowed though.

It is kind of big, isn't it?
I don't particularly like the rainbow effect either... even though patterned wafers really do look that way. I don't know...

You right

You can't really find the good microscope images of patterns online, but this one is somewhat neat.

[Red Sox Fan 734]

I always thought Ohms picture was a racket to....on a completley seperate note, i like bacon

[AndrewOsborn]

Cake is sweeter

You have obviously never had chocolate silk pie. Orgasm in my mouth....

But a pie is more savoury, and probably better for one' s teeth.

Does anybody know what guitar that Neil Diamond currently plays?

I heard it this morning, had a gorgeous rich tone, more like a 12-string acoustic, altho these old eyes could discern only 6 strings on the instrument.

My guess is six string

[Alloutwar]

on a 12 string, the strings are doubled up so close together, that if you are more than a foot away it looks like just 6 strings. They're just octaves, after all.

If you want to know if it's a 12-string, look at the headstock - the number of tuning pegs is a much better indicator of strings.

Neil typically plays just chords, and no loead or intense plucking, so a 12-string would be possible. But the rich tone may be more from reverb and great amplification systems.

I believe it was an acoustic guitar...I could detect no cables, connections, whatever.

Besides, I was more interested in the make of guitar -Fender; Gibson: Rokkeman; etc.

[Alloutwar]

Ahh. Well, I checked out Wikipedia and www.NeilDiamond.com, no info on what types he uses.

Most high-class performers that play acoustic will have a wireless amp on their back, sometimes small enough to hide next to the guitar strap. I had them at shows 8+ years ago - my guitarist could run through the (very small) crowd, no wires, but he came through the speakers big and loud.

[Rongar]

Aha! ...that could be the answer...ain't technology wunnerful? I mean the guitarists even run thro the crowds, nowadays...me, I just used to dance round my Mom (my audience), whilst strumming.

Love that wireless amp effect, if that's what it is...thanks for your input,AOW.

[kevarms]

Anybody ever thought about the universe and our own insignificance in it so hard they almost fainted?

Just me then? :o Well, it's the thread for whatever isn't it? :p

[Alloutwar]

I think about that a lot, Kev. I love studying the universe, what stars are made of...I think the most amazing thing is that the individual atoms from the beginning of the universe are in us...and eventually, might return out there.

I study a lot about galaxies and collilsions and how all that happens. I love to look up at the sky, see a star shining brightly, and realize that the light I am seeing is already thousands of years old. Scary.

I am with you. Space and the universe amaze me. Kevarms, this is a thread for whatever so ya this fits in great. Anyone else amazed by how a small peice the size of aq hand from a white star would have 100,00 times or so more density then anything else that size. All out, I also think its neat that when you see the stars you see them as they are years ago, like a time machine. Now I am starting to sound like some sceintist/philosipher on the discoverey channel so I think I will stop. On a different note, any one else watch survivor man? Think you could go out their on your own in the middle of no where and do your own camera work and stuff? That guy is unbelievible. The other day he was eating animal testicles and stuff that I would never do.

[cartman00000001]

Yeah, astronomy boggles my mind. I can't get over the phenomenon that we can see stars that were extinguished ages ago...truly, a trick of the light...

I traded my 500HP car for one with 250HP. I miss the power but I do like the ability to drive in the snow in a straight line.

[CatKnight]

Driving in a straight line is boring. And what the heck do you need iPods for anyway?

Music!

[McLoving]

A car can have CD players with all the superfluous features in the world and I still will have a second thoughts to buy it if it doesn't have iPod plug-in feature. Music CD is becoming outdated anyways.
