lol... thanks gully... I didn't run spell check, I figured you could sound it out... Dinosaur names have always been a pain in the ....

Alot of the local bars and taverns around are closing or selling out, more hip, trend setting night club type places,the kind younger crowds seem to like are replacing them. But I'm lucky enough to live very close to a great place for a good dinner and a good beer. I'm sure almost anyone would find a good beer here as their selection is the biggest that I've ever seen. Just check out this selection, all prices are USD. http://www.sharpedgebeer.com/html/full.htm Mike

Definitely proud. I am a member of some about 10 forums. Some more I canot recall a name of a single person on it. There is no place like home.

scrabble, battleship and hangman. of course connect-4 as well i'd play jumanji, but i'd rather not have animals tear apart the house and robin williams is only funny in small doses. poster-CADken

:rofl: omg, when he went for the battery is when it really had my laughing! poster-CADken

Thanks for that bit of info Maggi. "If you would place a baby in an ultra clean room directly after birth, it would not be able to digest its food." I alway thought that all of this emphasis on cleanliness, antibiotics and sterilizing everything was getting out of hand.

Beautiful.

My ex is doing Landscape Architecture at uni. I told her I was using Sketchup - never heard of it was the reply. She was using Rhino, then later she was using Vectorworks, she told me the other day she is about to start using SU - because everyone else is using it I offered to help if she needed tutoring on the program, she laughed and said I would regret making such an offer, no I won't I said. I still haven't received a request for tutoring

I like this one: WROOT (n.) A short little berk who thinks that by pulling on his pipe and gazing shrewdly at you he will give the impression that he is infinitely wise and 5 ft 11 in.

Okay so this thread is about the 'How It's Made' tv program. Why the "New Fantasy" part of the title? What's that have to do with anything? Invader ZIM, I guess what I'm asking is why did you think this topic would be something good to discuss? If there's something about it that interests you then it might have been better if you started the discussion by explaining your interest. Do you have any particular interest in cultured skin tissue? What about traffic lights interests you? If there is then you should have taken the time to write about those interests in your first posting. That would have given this thread context and allowed a meaningfull discussion to follow. I realize you (Invader ZIM) are probably the youngest member here. Most of the rest of us, as you can see from our avatar pics, are probably older than your parents. We can all get along and have meaningful discussions but it does require each of us to try and communicate clearly. Your original title for this thread, the "quote", and your words have not communicated very well. If you walked up to some random adult in a mall and said "New Fantasy How it's Made Episode: Today...on How it's Made. Blood, human skin, hybrid vehicles, and traffic lights!" I'd suggest they wouldn't understand what you are talking about. It's not much different here. Most of the discussion here in this thread has been about trying to figure out what your point is. In general please take enough time to re-read your words before you submit them to assess if others will be able to understand your point. By the way I like the TV show and watch it occasionally with my kids. We always learn something from seeing it. Regards, Ross

You didn't use Sketchup! Traitor.

Absolutely...thanks, Ron.

IF 1 gallon (US) = 3.78541178 litres... The UK petrol[eum] ('gas[oline]') prices fluctuate by location and also week by week; but they seem to do nothing but go up since the start of the year. Currently it's just over £1 per litre - that makes a US gallon about £4. Since there's currently about $2 in £1 that means that in the UK we are paying the equivalent to someone in the US paying $8 per gallon... plus/minus 15 cents??? Thirty-plus years ago in the UK when fuel rocketed in price within a matter of weeks and it rose up to ~40p per gallon(Imp), everyone said that there'd be riots in the street when petrol eventually hit £5 per gallon. We're not quite there yet, although we're 90% of the way with it at about £4.70 per gallon(Imp), BUT in terms of disposable income I guess that we're earning about 10 times more, so fuel is 'pro rata' only ~20% MORE expensive than it was back then... In the same time frame beer has about doubled in price - 'pro rata' on your earnings !!!! What was three/four/five beers for one pound is now one beer for two/three/four pounds - depending on the beer and how 'posh' the bar is !!!!

Sorry folks, but I'm not getting Email Notifications. Anyone have any ideas why not? I have my Preferences set right (No.jpg) [image: smallNo.jpg] and I have that box below checked (Notifications.jpg) [image: smallNotifications.jpg] hey, as long as we're talking about snakes and roos .. http://media.skoopy.com/misc/snake_roo/

I've switched from biscuits/cookies to veggies. If I'm feeling a little peckish towards late morning, I'll just gobble a few cherry tomatoes with maybe a lemon tea. I also try to keep some celery sticks or pre-sliced carrot in the fridge, with a choice of dips. For the weight-watchers, Tzatziki is one of the best, at only 20 cals per tablespoon. Hummus is twice that and Taramasalata is 3 times. Salsa is virtually nothing.

@unknownuser said: The only other Argentine to win a major was Roberto de Vicenzo in the 1967 British Open at Hoylake. Yea, you're right. First US Open, second major. Angel couldn't wipe the grin off his face for Tiger's last three holes.

gai, it worked perfectly. thanks. edson

way to go coach.....You could start a new book, "How to Win Hearts and Influence People", the little guy needs you.
