Last Priest show I saw was 83', Screaming For Vengeance being the last LP listenable in it's entirety....the last one to go double-platinum.

So i'm guessing he didn't use helium? Actually, using Helium to fill up party balloons is incredible stupid use of the precious gas. Our current Helium storages are emptying out and there's no other way to produce it in the future than to extract it from the air.. The cost will make it at par with gold and platinum, our technology can not survive without it and US sells it at a fraction of it's real price... Next generations will mock us because of it...

Looks like my Driver's Ed teacher.


Kudos to the man over 60 who chooses to dye his long hippie-hair platinum with a hint of gold!

Awesomesauce! Daft Punk is such an under appreciated band IMO.


Geeze, how appreciated should they be? They've been nominated for 8 Grammys, won 2 of them. They've appeared in movies, tv shows, adverts. They composed the soundtrack for one of the most awesome movies ever, Tron Legacy, their albums have gone platinum and gold around the world... what more do you want?

Well I think I'd pick a ring that could at least be cut off if needed. Although that mercury ring would be neat....
Personally I think if you could get the various metals to stay together, I wouldn't mind seeing varying shades of steel, titanium, gold, copper, and platinum made into a neat pattern. Kind of a mix and match but all one loop, not inlays or anything like that. Like how marbles are made, especially gold lutz marbles.

It'd certainly be unique, I doubt any one band would be the same if they could manage to get them to be solid enough to stay together on someone's finger in a not-to-big loop.



Cool idea. Start with the four metals as wires and then twist them into a spiral and then forge them into a cylinder.

my ring is platinum, and the inside is bright shiny and the outside is very muted from the 10 thousand scratches of life

If there is anything worse than the movies that Michael Bay directs, it is the movies that he produces. Seriously, take a look at Platinum Dunes' output; it is horrifically bad.

Thanks for that man. I have a well-groomed beard but I like to keep my neck clean-shaven and my neck-line tight. Unfortunately, neck skin tends to be the most delicate. I end up having to go through those expensive-ass cartridges like once every 4 or 5 shaves. Once that blade-jizzm dries out, it tends to wreck havoc on my skin. I'm wish-listing all of your recommendations for purchase when the last of my cartridges runs out (or shortly before) >> ^Fletch:

I didn't know about the after-shave, I'll check it out. Thanks.

@gwiz665 I knew the part about the ladies would convince you.
For my fellow Canucks you can buy the Proraso line at Shoppers Drugs across the country. They also carry the "Real Shaving" products from England- I really like their after-shave balm, use it every day.


I switched to DE shaving about a year ago after reading some enthusiastic comments for it somewhere. I used to abhor shaving. Now, it has become a pleasurable, zen-like ritual instead of a monotonous chore. I will never go back to cartridges.
For those thinking of giving it a go, I'd just recommend getting one of the many blade sample packs you can find on Amazon and on just about any site that sells DE razors. There are many different skin and beard types, and not all blades will feel and perform the same for everybody. I ended up choosing Astra Superior Premium Platinums. Buy them in a hundred pack and they are about 11.5 cents apiece. I get about 5 or 6 shaves per blade. Some people will get less. Some will get more. Even if you shave every day (I don't), it's cheaper than the Dollar Shave Club (initial costs aside).
If the initial cost is off-putting to you, take trip to the local grocery store and stare at the ridiculous price of replacement cartidges for the razor you are using now. DE razors and accessories are like cars, computers and kitchen knives. You can spend as much as you desire on one. There are many excellent razors under fifty bucks available. I use a Merkur Heavy Classic 43c and I love it. Unlike cartridge razors, it wil last a lifetime.
But cost savings isn't the reason I would recommend DE shaving. The benefits listed above by @therealblankman are the reasons why it's superior to catridge shaving. DE shaving takes a little longer than cartridge shaving (if you want baby smooth cheeks), but the results are more than worth it.
Proraso seems to have a following by the looks of some of the above comments, and for good reason. I also use the Proraso Ultra-Sensitive soap, the Proraso aftershave balm, and Proraso Anti-Irritation pre-shaving cream. I complete the kit with a nice badger hair shaving brush.

I was watching one of those thorium energy videos, and they compared the rarities of metals in the earth crust. What they showed was that uranium was about as rare are platinum. Which means that you are essentially throwing one of the earths rarest metals in the fire bin. And while that might not be a waste in the typical sense, it is food for thought.

1. Bleach your hair platinum blonde but maintain 2-3" of visible roots.
2. Buy some fluid acrylics and paint a new face over your real one.
3. Try to maintain a vapid stare, a dumb smirk, and a duckface at all times. This one is really tricky.
4. State the obvious as if it were insightful.
5. State the mundane as if it were funny.
6. Get a half-rodent, half-dog for a pet.
7. Wear tight and/or revealing clothes. A lot of viewers will have you on mute, anyway.
