Fabulous!

I love mechanical elegance like this. Electronics can do all sorts of fabulous things these days but it's all gone way beyond my understanding. I'm sure there is every bit as much elegance in good programming as there is here but I just can't see it, understand it.

This is such an elegant and simple mechanism, every bit does what it needs to do, and integrates perfectly with all the other parts. Everything just works together as it should. Beautiful.

Happy Birthday Owen! Have a fabulous day

Hey Scott. Happy Birthday to YOU [and my sister!] ... make it a fabulous day

Hope the 40s are treating you well Mekanikal. Have a fabulous day

Onto a secondary topic, it includes the "media frenzy" and the contract clauses that force players, coaches, and others to appear before the media... Plus the media in general, when it comes to the Superbowl (but, this has to do with our country; or at the least certain segments and populations of our country). But, really it's about the general stupidity and levels we have turned this ONE event into!

Only a few interviews are worth looking at typically and they tend to be AFTER a game, not before it (as that amounts to "what ifs", "probably might", "we sure can try", and "if I win, I'll go to 'insert Measleland or another place here' with my wife/kid/family/parrot"). I absolutely hate the fourteen hour pre-game show that the NFL and the channel hosting this *thing* that apparently people watch, that is quite like a: "super-fabulous-orgasmic-serotonin ovulating-dopamine excreting-heroine junkie nerve conduction transfer-fourteen people high at a rave experimenting in an orgy with all the holes and toys available"... OK, so maybe that is a bit too far, but still...! It really is the most "grandiose" setups for a game, that doesn't need such a grandiose setup.

The should just make it a damned national holiday already--everyone already stays home or is basically forced to, since one half of their family is probably glued to the TV for quite awhile.. Although I know we always "had" these interviews on the TV, but we never really listened to them, because they bring out 40 people who essentially ALL say the same thing (the only difference is if it is a different team and or if they are extremely religious--they will then tell you how their team will win, "...no matter what...", and then if they are religious proceed to randomly give you the, "God is on our side...", mantra...which always made me laugh--literally, out-loud).

Then they cut back to the ex-coach's and arm-chair quarterbacks who have been given a one day opportunity to tell the world what they think, and how he game will go (and it never does).

Needless to say, I HATE, with a passion, the "pre-game show" (which didn't exist in it's ridiculous form for a VERY longtime until the late 80's and early 90's). I'd rather them move all of their prime-time TV shows that will not be shown that night, due to the game, to that period of the day and let us watch that instead before the game (then they can give us a modest 45-30 minute pre-game; not this 5-hour marathon of ads and marketing, with a bunch of talking faces trying as hard as they can to make a name for themselves in that time-span).

Only people like "Beast Mode" can save that time allotment and make it worthwhile (if you think it is "entertaining", you REALLY need to stay away a bit from Football, and I'm saying that as a concerned friend...)--because right now, although a lot of people flip their TV over to the channel with it on...it is a massive waste of money and time--that somehow generates massive amounts of money (talk about "very careful" and "orchestrated" money setups and schemes; but luckily they have idiotic companies paying them gigantic sums of money for their commercials to air...even before the game comes on...). And, I wish people wouldn't just flip over to it, to have it on in the background (as most of the time I've noticed, whether it's a game at my house, someone else's OR an actual Superbowl party--no one watches that crap, it just sits on that channel...making them "think" they are getting ratings, but they actually aren't. It's kind of like saying that people go to Tailgate parties to park cars and see how neat the cement is...

Here's to another ridiculously fabulous celebration of your arrival on planet earth dhdigital! Bask in the enjoyment of YOUR day

Rock on with your Birthday self! Have a fabulous day

I'm sorry, I just can't take a bunch of rednecks dressed up as ghosts seriously. If Obama absolutely has to have drone strokes (and apparently he does), just drone strike these idiots and be done with it. No-one will miss them.

Oh and the guy in the fabulous green outfit with the sequined dragon on it? Yeah, he's totally straight....

BWHAHAHAHAHA

*backup=[...snipped...] - a fabulous song.

That's fabulous. We bought three wonderful female gerbils last November. They were about 8 weeks old. We only wanted two, but there were three in the cage at the pet shop and I told my husband that it would be cruel to leave one behind. They are delightful little critters. I grew up with pet rats, and domestic rats are somewhat more personable, well, a lot. But, we were given an unused Habitrail system that would have been too small for rats. So, Gerbils! (Sorry, in my experience (I worked in a pet store for a while) hamsters are solitary, territorial and tend to bite.) I was immediately impressed by how naturally friendly they are. In the gerbil manual we bought with them, it talked about taming them. These little girls were like, "Hey, who are you? Can I climb on you?"

Hey MilkmanDan! Hope you have a fabulous birthday today!

wow...@lantern53's all butt-hurt now and carrying it into other sifts.
