This kinda thread was a hit in some other forums I've frequented so I figured I'd start one up here.
Basically just a thread to post any random thoughts you have or just random stuff going on that doesn't really warrant making a new thread over.
what kind of random thoughts? like.. it was really nice today where I'm at and cold and cloudy. like that? or more specific?

Random Buffy quotes:
"Blah, blah gia. Blah, blah moon. Menstrual life force power thingy."
"Seize the moment, because tomorrow you may be dead!"
"Strong is fighting. Its hard and its painful and its everyday!"
"You think you know what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun."
"The hardest thing in this world is to live in it."
Except for the first one, these quotes are how I try to think about the world and life.
Random enough?

Why do Flamingos stand on one leg?

Why do Flamingos stand on one leg?
because if they rested both legs at the same time, they would fall over.

You see all the posts following yours? Those kinda random thoughts and conversations. :P
Yay for silly threads!
Why am I so excited about winter? All I do during winter is shovel snow... Oh and decorate (and take down decorations from) the house. I'm sure mid way during the season I'm gonna be pissed off at it. :P
I never look forward to summer because everything conspires to kill me via setting off my asthma. Winter is good. Nice and dry and cold. Great weather to walk in.
Colorful Fall Leaves are amazing. I love them. :)
I've been meaning to say, Mrs. Ecrocse, I like your matching avatars with ecrocse. You're a very cute couple. 8)
Christmas used to mean something to me. Back when I believed everything I was told.
Santa has spies everywhere they watch everything you do all year long.
Only if you are good all year long, will he come down the chimney on Christmas Eve,
eat the cookies, drink the milk, save the carrots to give to his reindeer later,
come to your bedroom to make sure your asleep, leave presents under the tree,
go back up the chimney and continue on to the next house.
Thank you for the compliment Osiris. I enjoy your posts.
Wishing you a Happy Holiday Season.
~Hugs~

It snowed today!!!! I <3 snow!!!! Nothing stuck, but it snowed!!! I love winter too. I love to be able to snuggle up under my warm blanket when I go to sleep.
I finally have the day off tommorow!!!!!!! I am sooooo happy i can just relllllaxxxxxxxxxx!!!
I had today off. Slept. And friends coming over for dinner, meeting Cindy for the first time.
Why is there air?
Why is the sky blue and not pink?
Does that cloud like like a Unicorn?

I need a job. I have one and I still need one.
Anyone here tried stand-up paddleboarding? Trying to decide whether to try it. No surf here just lakes/rivers.
describe paddle-boarding please.
They are like a large surfboard or sailboard, but propelled with a long single paddle used standing. Can be used in the surf or flat water.
Gondolas on the sea without the sides or front, or seats or anything really. Oh and no pole just a paddle. Obvious to any woman.
Oh,by the way my machine needs a lube, do you work as a mechanic ::) ::). No pay, satisfaction, ::) :embarrassed: guaranteed.
Cindy
Paddleboarding sounds like as much fun as water skiing
behind a parachute like they do on the Columbia River.
My friend is having a Hanukkah party tonight! I'm not Jewish, she is, but I will be going anyway because I like celebrating with people I care about! Should be a good time. HAPPY HANUKKAH ALL MY JEWISH BROTHERS AND SISTERS, TRANS AND CIS ALIKE =D =D
So plans for the day kinda fell apart when I found that the raw materials for the tv stand I was gonna work on weren't the right size. Guess will have to come up with something else.
Mrs Erocse, you're quite welcome. I'm wishing you and your family a great holiday season. :)
Wintertime? Snow? Cold?
Fie upon it! Yours truly is congenitally allergic to these things. Now, THIS is where it's at! Spent hours and hours in this pool. Chilled under the waterfall. Basked on the deck. Loved the restaurants. Know many of the folks who live here. Envy 'em! Mucho expensivo.
Been here ... done this ... know these folks ... miss it ... wanna go back ... NOW!:
Caliente Resort (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tVbzjbZpc4#)
Sadly, it DOES get COLD here in the winter. Bastards are too cheap to heat the pool, and they've got the money to do so, trust me. If money was no object, this is where I'd live ... in a hearbeat!

So I won't tell you that it's 35C today, just so you won't get upset. Time to put the bikini on and have a cold glass of wine in the garden.
Mmmm love that snow stuff >:-) >:-) >:-) >:-)

Soooo, I really really need to learn how to budget my money better... :o
I really need to get used to being alone. Love it but sometimes, I wish I could share.

Well you are always in our thoughts. So then are you ever really alone? Suzan's is a big family. You are part of it. We are glad you are here. Today is Magic Saturday, maybe you will meet someone awesome.
I wish I could get the anger and hurt I feel at mean spirited, unfair people out of my head. Today is Magic Saturday and I will not let it in. I will hang candy canes and pine cones.

I'm not sure mean-spirited and unfair people have much chance with you around. As to meeting someone awesome, not likely, I will go work in a bank all by myself and then sit in my room all by myself. No one to meet. Nice thought tho.
My stomach is kinda upset but kinda not. o.O

Why sit in a room all by yourself? Go to Walmart and smile at people who don't look happy. Strike up conversations with people you don't know. Make compliments to people you admire. A man standing in line...."Cool Coat Man. I have been looking for one like that. Where did you get it?"
Or, " This is an awesome sale on Pop Tarts. I love Pop Tarts." A lady may suggest, " You are right, my kids love them too."
Speak to a cashier you see all of the time. Have a conversation about those Chargers. Do you think they'll make it to the Superbowl?
Become familiar with the people around you. That is what I do anyways...... I find it entertaining and fun.
People at Walmart interact with my son who works at walmart, not a good idea. the looks I get from speaking to strangers in a shopping place are not worth spending money I don't have to get things I don't need.
As to Superbowl, The Vikings aren't going so it doesn't make much difference. The people in this house I live in are the reason I choose to stay in my room.
Mrs Erocse is not suggesting Lord Kat buy anything. Just hang out and look around. Walmart is only an example. She doesn't know anything at all about football. She merely reiterated something she overheard someone else say, hoping, it may be a relevant suggestion. :)
Mrs Erocse wondered if she got the 3rd person correctly yet?
Mrs Erocse will be posting with Lord Kat on Suzans this fine day.
LordKAT noticed Mrs. Erocse has the third person talk down just fine. He also wants to mention that shopping and not buying make no sense. You go in, get what you need and get out. The rest just makes no sense.
It's window shopping lordkat, I don't know a lot of men who do that but there are some. It's a good way to get out of the house and be part of the world when you're bored and broke.
If common sense is common, then why do so little people have it.
Dutch donuts! hmmm.....
Better to have uncommon sense than common sense?
Or is it better to have uncommon sense than no sense at all?
Do you have to have sense to get cents?
I really need a shower, bad, but I'm really lazy and not motivated to go shower. I probably smell.
LordKAT could go window shopping in "blokey" shops- hunting/fishing, bicycle, sporting goods, motorcycle or car dealers, etc.
Nobody expects you to just walk in off the street and buy a 4x4 truck, for example.
You can look under the bonnet, collect brochures, check out the suspension and so forth, as if you don't know anything about the subject, but would like to try it.
Good "things guys do", research too.
Do you buy windows when you go window shopping?
Same as people advertising a garage sale :laugh: :laugh: ::)

Now this I can deal with, Harley dealer not far from me.
"Harley Dealership.....There you go Lord Kat!"said Mrs. Erocse with satisfaction. :) Then she pondered for a brief moment the defineable differences in personal tastes. After a brief moment she began to ponder what she would be having for breakfast.
My nose is stuffed up. Now if only stuffed noses were able to be sold like stuffed animals.

Occasional furniture, occasionally comes into the house from the garage when needed.
Coat Hangers go to the GoodWill as they take too much room in the closet.
There is a female chocolate fairy in your cupboard that steals your chocolate in the middle of the night.
You are a really smart, caring, supportive, family member at Susan's.

That's easy...you're me from the future. Now can I have the keys to the Delorean?
I have often contemplated what is it that gives crisps (or potato chips for our cousins across the pond) their essential crispisity and makes them so damn good to eat and I think I have finally discovered the answer
The Crispisity equation.
Crispicity (or C) is a measure of how good a particular crisp is and can be defined by the following equation. C = t
(Ti-b) Ch
2C is a relational value between taste (t), taste intensity (Ti), Brand (b) and crunch (Ch).
The value of t is normally between 0 and 10 on a linear scale, 10 generally being considered the tastiest thing a human could put in their mouths without suffering complete sensory overload. In some rare cases t may return a value of less than zero, the best example being Walkers highly experimental (and quite possibly illegal) Bolivian Vampire Bat flavoured crisps that were actual capable rendering foodstuffs with a high t value insipid and tasteless, as demonstrated by placing the crisps in cheese and onion sandwiches. Legend has it that the phoenix, if cooked properly had a t value of 15 to 20, and could be eaten with proper training, but this has never been satisfactorily proved due to a shortage of phoenixes.
Ti, or taste intensity, is measured on an exponential scale, between 0 and 10. It is believed that it is actually impossible to return a Ti value greater than 10, indeed, there highest Ti value ever recorded was 9.6, under strictly controlled, highly shielded lab conditions. Even then the taste intensity was so great that several members of the research team we rendered unconscious whilst suffering from involuntary orgasms. The US military has invested a great deal of effort in developing scent bombs with high Ti values to incapacitate enemy soldiers, but currently the results are patchy at best.
The value of b is an inverse linear value, the closer to zero it is, the better the brand. A brand with a value of zero could theoretically put mouldy dog poo on a shelf and sell it for vast amounts of money...and people would still go away thinking they've got a good deal.
Ch, or crunch is again on a linear scale and usually sits between 0 and 10. it is possible to return values greater than 10 under lab conditions, but foodstuffs with a Ch value greater than 10 can cause serious physical damage, indeed, foodstuffs with a Ch value of more than 20 can shatter concrete to a thickness of 60cm. The US military has again invested heavily in research into high Ch value foodstuff weapons and recently started using the new spud bomb bunker buster, filled with highly fissile, high Ch value crisps.
Given the above, the perfect crisp would return a crispisity value of 1. While it is theoretically possible to get a crispisity value higher than 1, any crisp returning this would be highly unstable and incredibly lethal. This kind of speculation is best left to the various snack based weapon research facilities located worldwide.
Shaaaablagoooo!! A doobie doo Bop bop........
This is some hip hop hop..
Shaaaablagoooo!! A doobie doo Bop bop........
Helena, the existence of Army Ration Packs (of whatever nationality) shows that t and Ti can also have negative values.
The effect this can have on the equation can best be illustrated by the concept of a Mission Brown coloured Ferrari or similar. Even if b were infinite, the others would cause the value of C to be negative, consequently causing drivers parked adjacent to move their vehicles as far away as possible.
Laura you are correct. "It seems that you are unfamiliar with the awesome power of Miiint Berryyyyyy CRUNCH!!" I don't watch television and listen to very little radio so I miss out on all the trendy items and commercials unless my daughters introduce them to me. I have never been trendy. :D Is that a Nestle item?
When your toes get cold do the turn pink or red? Is the shade flattering?

Tis amazing all the things I take for granted until I even realize its existence.
my ankle hurts...and I'm hungry. i wish we had more junk food in the house that I'd actually want to eat. oh wait we have oreos....*runs downstairs*
I didn't get to run today and probably won't be able to tomorrow as well, which annoys me.
I really wish my roommates didn't feel the need to talk about their birth control with me.
Why am I so grumpy this evening when my day was going so well?
Do we only care about disaster when they are local? And what do we learn from that?
Just realized, I wear my packer more than I wear my teeth.
Due to flooding in the area, the town of Tarnagulla (yes, it is a real name!) has lost it's water supply.
The trucks that were to bring in drinking water are unable to reach it due to the floods.
To add to the bizarreness quotient, being a country town, the majority of the locals will have rainwater tanks anyway!

Glad I found the salt free version also sugar free.
