    <Gilded> The ghey field mediating particle is called Swedon, which has a spin of 1/5, which is bloody odd <Gilded> Klaynos, it would have a integer spin, but the sheer fact that it's so gh3y takes 4/5 spin away <Gilded> Summary: Ghey-particle is just like a photon with the 4/5 spin taken away, and mediates the ghey force which must be studied further <Gilded> The overall energy of the Ghey-particle is E = frequency * current popularity of Village People so, what else is known about this field?

    I've "inherited" a ruby ring, and it's over seventy years old. Does anyone know how to determine if the stone is real or not? Or what stones may have been used to fake it during that era? I'd never dream of hocking it, but I'm curious.

    just, wow. This is just...I have no words http://www.ebaumsworld.com/flash/rubberjohnny.html EDIT: I am guessing that I should put a warning here. This video is very psychologically un-nerving. If you don't like things like blair witch project, this is about 10000000x times worse. This has no gruesome pictures, no scary pop-ups, it's a video some very talented and twisted guys made. If you think it will be like the faces of death videos, it's not. It couldn't be farther from that. It is scary in the same way the X-Files was scary. This WILL give you a nightmare or two... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_Johnny

    Hi everyone! How come most people don't call each other by their first names on the Internet? I guess people have to worry about privacy and everything, but I don't think it could hurt anything to know our first names. There are probably hundreds or thousands of other people with the same first name as you. I think it sounds kinda weird calling people by their usernames. I would never let anyone know my real identity, but nobody would know if they only knew my first name. My first name is Clara, but you probably already knew that somehow...

    There is a red big tank that people often carry around during any trip. When opening it, you see many ice cubes and drinks in there. Do you know what I am talking about? I am thinking about getting this so that when I drive a far way to buy something chill, I can still enjoy them icy. Because I will put them into this tank, so it will keep them cool.

  11. I'm seeing this a lot more often and it's starting to disturb me because when I notice things like this I start to notice a trend on the web that I'm not aware of and is: 1. Forming 2. Some type of gang code 3. Some type of entry that people use from a certain group (nation, cult, w/e) So I'm wondering why people are putting Cheers At the bottom of their posts. I'm not saying that it's a bad thing, I'm just noticing that it's coming around more and more and I don't understand why people are putting Cheers at the bottom of almost every post they have. Why is this happening? Is there some type of trend on the web that's developing?

    I read Johnny5's last thread here. It seems to have been an ongoing discussion in which he was trying to explain a mathematical concept to Matt Grime as he saw it. Things may be a bit different where some people are, but the discussion looked quite civil to me. Then Phi for All said this: "Enough. This thread was designed to show one member how to save time and space in his postings and has gone on now for 3 pages. Once again we have tied up a Resident expert's valuable time to solve the problems of a member who seems to relish being a problem. This is not what we're here for." I can't divine what Johnny5's terrible crime might have been. His posts seemed to …

    Ok....in one of Blikes latest challenges, the question was about Logic and Emotion. The only answers were I agree or I disagree and I said "I disagree". Others enhanced the answer by adding the word "Strongly". I (grrrrrrrrr) tried to look for a way to change mine so I could add that word too, but I can't. Now.....does it make a difference in who is selected if the answer is made to look stronger? I don't care if I'm not selected, I just want to know. Bettina

    Hi, just thought I'd drop a note that I'm going to be visiting my GF in the UK for the next three weeks+, from the 19th to the 10th. They have internet (broadband, so better internet than me), so I'll still be able to check in, just not as often, as I'll be, erm, distracted. Anyhow, just letting you know I won't be around as often or posting as much. Mokele

    Has anyone drunk the drinks like Green Tea, Black Tea or whatever? i have drunk Green Tea made in US, but the taste is not as good as those in my native country--Taiwan. I still think the drinks sold here are pretty good. But I love the ones from Tawan. Also that milk tea and black tea are nice-tasted from Japan. I think US market should try to focus on making milk tea.

    Coach Allegedly Paid Player to Hit Boy By ALLISON SCHLESINGER The Associated Press Friday, July 15, 2005; 10:20 PM PITTSBURGH -- A T-ball coach allegedly paid one of his players $25 to hurt an 8-year-old mentally disabled teammate so he wouldn't have to put the boy in the game, police said Friday. Mark R. Downs Jr., 27, of Dunbar, is accused of offering one of his players the money to hit the boy in the head with a baseball, police said. Witnesses told police Downs didn't want the boy to play in the game because of his disability. Police said the boy was hit in the head and in the groin with a baseball just before a game, and didn't play, police said.…

    Today I was notified that we will be having manditory PT for DEP members every Wednesday. We used to only have to go to a DEP meeting the second Wednesday of every month. I got out of it this week, but now I have to find a ride to Greenwood every Wednesday at 17 00. I don't have a car, so this is going to be akward. I have to call people I don't even know to get a ride. Maybe I can get my recruiter to call them for me.

    I don't know why. Who is native born American here, please explain it to me. When I read some article, as it is quoting, sometimes it sppears "Someone Says," another time it happens "Says Someone." That someone refered to the name of author. As grammatical pattern, how can you swtich this kind of case? Also that I, you, he, she, and they are sometimes used as subjects. But we can always use adjective to modify nouns. At the beggining of sentence, can I make: Angry-I dislike this thing???
