Natalie Portman is very hot. Or to put it more gracefully--- she is a living work of art. We need a thread, or a whole forum area devoted to beautiful women. But that's not the topic of the post. I was looking at this site (something to do with looking for Edward Scissorhands Posters) and, well you ever see something and you skip over it until you register it, then search forever to refind it? That's what happened ( saw her name) except it wasn't anywhere on the page (i did CTRL+F portman). Nor on the page before that. Kinda random, but this happens to me a lot when i'm reading, is there a name for this word hallucination phenomenon? So then googled images of Natalie.…

it seems like a simple question, but has proven in the past not to be. my question goes like this: "what is your favorite primetime cartoon?" I just realized that all of the choices (exept for "other") are made by the same person.

what do u like best? I like most of the stuff. Autumn in Ganymyde is really nice. so is rush and its versions. but the song that really gets to me is " Call me Call me". whenever i hear it, i always go all nostalgic. and my eyes start to water a bit as well. Its probably the lyrics. and the wonderful chord progressions. I hate listening to it for that reason but I have to listen to it again. Love-Hate relationship

This could be an interesting thread; Tell us; When you found this site Why and How you did Any good/ bad/ interesting experiences?

It's Time For Blaire To Get Married....and She Needs Your Help!

Like the title said, I got my arse handed to me by a Venom 650. This is the first venom I've ever seen in KY. I don't believe and or engage in street racing, but this was an opportunity I could not miss, even though I knew that there's no way in hell my car could outperform her, but there's that chance of user error. I guess I was hoping that she might have slipped a gear or something.... We had 3 launches, and the first one was a test more or less. Second we got out at about the same time(but that was it though, she very quickly overtook me after that point) and the final hit me with a train. By the time I got to 60, I lost sight of the venom. Caught up with the gi…

I absolutely love those debates. Tony Blair does a really splendid job of defending his position. He is very witty, and can think very fast on his feet. and he enjoys bringing up dirt on the opposition. And so is Michael Howard(opposition leader). I loved his performance against Gordon Brown(Chancellor of the Exchequer). during the last budget. And I find the Booing and Shouting of the BackBenchers very amusing as well. What a great tradition. I wonder how GWBush would stand up to this style of unrehearsed grilling.

What music do you guys love? What songs?

: Look at this stuff, I see this golf cart everywhere. It’s called Mirrachrome looks pretty good for a chrome paint. Anyone try it yet? I saw on their page a bunch of other crazy paints as well. http://www.alsacorp.com/products/mirrachrome/mirra_show.htm

Without water, we can't do anything. This is a deadly problem for some country with only a little bit of water. Considering some special properties of water, scientists make theory that a planet without water would have a very small chance of having organism. Why is water so special and can we find out its mysteries? (A strange shape, high specific heat capacity, solid state is less dense than liquid state..) According to a calculation, the probability of god is over 50%. Do you believe the god?

This might sound a bit arrogant, but pls bear with me Is every member of say the Royal Scientific(European or British, etc) society has been granted with a knighthood? What does one needs to do in order to become a knight these days anyway?

i just watched "Day After Tomorrow" and i have to admit there was some funky special efffects. But is any of the science in the movie any good? does the change in current, affect the weather to such extent? Is it possible for tempreture to change at 15 degrees a second. The bit when it says the cold air is sucked from the stratosphere and is sucked to the ground fast enough for it to not get warm? doesnt that involve the air to travel at immense velocity? Can the air travel that fast?(on earth of course)

A great use of internet vernacular ROFL copter attack!

http://www.allmoviescripts.com/scripts/10272177763f326892cd160.html I'm not saying it's a great script, or that it's not a great script. I'm not saying to rent the video or not to. I feel I know some of the people in "As Good as It Gets". And some of the dialog is (for good or bad) engraved in my memory. Like this----to see the context, scroll down about 45 percent of the page Zoe is a fan of Melvin's romance novels. She been dying to talk to him in person and finally gets her chance. Melvin is a hermit who writes hack purely for the money and hates real-life emoting. You see him trying to get away by pushing the elevator button---and wiping his finger to get r…

Sit up straight in your chair. Lift your right foot off the ground and move it in clockwise circles. Now, draw the number 6 in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change directions. LOLLYROFFLE!

SFN is in a period of rapid growth IMHO A small stat box has been taken down, i see. but can't attribute any meaning to that Between 11 November 2003 and 9 May 2004 the average posts per day was about 139 In the last 2 months it has been 232 (by my calculation) Here's the data on which that is based: total posts on 5 November 2003 was 25,000 total posts on 9 May 2004 was 50,000 total posts on 9 July 2004 was 63,937 a monthly average posts-per-day seems like a good measure of activity (or a bi-monthly average) Here's what my sig has been lately (I think I might change it so this is just to save the information) [acr=82 on 6 July, 12:30 PM]most …
