Lol, thanks lucky! You'll have my upvote.


It would have been funny if you'd down voted.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Love okra!

Speak up Mint, I can't hear you... (Is there audio in this video?)


Sorry no.. After my cell phone camera made it sound like I had the mother of all lisps, and I developed an accent about 10 times thicker than my normal one, I decided to mute the clips and go for subtitles.

Sorry That I did not add any music or anything, but this was my first time ever using a video editing software, and getting the subtitles on was enough for now

Thanks everybody for the votes

I will chop stuff to get a few entries in I am sure it'll be fun if I try to make a video using a cell phone camera, and make sure I am not showing my face OR speaking. But I can do it, I am good at multi-tasking and staying anonymous. And my accent is weird, OK.

I was going to make succotash soon anyway, so I might as well try to tape my glorious preparations I do need to get some corn, and I just realized the okra I have in the fridge had gone bad.. So I need to get more. Mebbe on Monday!

Weekends are for grilling!

Yeah Raaagh, me too...so this is snuff, right? Even if Thatch Sparked Up here was re-incarnated the next day into Pat Nixon's aborted love-child with Henry Kissinger, makes it like Faces of Death on the Videosift, innit?...because the cat did get all melted and re-incarnated and shit, right?....*questions afterlife scenario #12

"I've modified the video title and details, as I really don't want this video confused with the death of Thich Quang Duc, as I believe that would be disrespectful. This is still important footage in my opinion."

It's still snuffage. So everyone all holy was doing it in okra robes with petrol in Nam, doesn't mean we need to see it, eh? Show us some war crimes caught on tape...the we can get all GenevaConvection on their asses, oven...

Man, I'd make a shitty cop....

Alright doggie, now fetch a pot, sliced okra, worcestershire, ketchup, onions, diced tomatoes, potatoes, corn, cayenne pepper and a hunk of fat back.

I'll get the bottle of wine and start some cornbread


....and Grandpa Jones says YUM YUM!

Hey, thanks for reminding me about pickled okra! I use to eats jar after jar of those until I got two gritty jars of them in a row. I think it's time to get back on that horse...thanks!

hey crittter, try hot wasabi peas. Or honey roasted soy nuts.
& choggie, seriously, hubby & I are big pickled okra fans...never met anyone else who was, quite frankly...were you being sarcastic?

Methinks you have not spent much time in Oklahoma. That is where I'm from, and I love the stuff (pickled okra). There are many more just like me there (at least in that regard).

mmmmmm..Bulleit is great straight whiskey, good pick schmawy- like Dickel too.....those damn Triscuits with cracked pepper and olive oil and the rosemary ones, are addictive as crack-cream cheese, and a shitload a pickles-I eat pickled okra, cukes, radish, tomatoes, anything with vinegar-(beers)

poppin' Calamata olives and grape tomatoes all the way-
usually make a salad every other day-now that the green beans are poppin', gonna be pickling those....

I had a southern dialect dictionary one time. It referred to okra as a "rot-slick vegetable" "Rat-cheer" as in, put that chair rat-cheer. etc. I wish I could locate it. It was great.

Is this instantaneous action stuff still a total hangup for theoreticians? I don't see a graviton as necessary if the local geometry of space is what it is due to concentrated mass in the vicinity. Because space/time is not an electromagnetic force, why does it have to be tied to the velocity of electromagnetic radiation? That's another one I've never really understood. But, as I've pointed out, to practice good medicine you just need a good memory and good common sense. Not many of us can solve a quadratic.

No, I'm not a physicist either, though occasionally I pretend to be one. I do have some background in it and try to keep current, but I'm definitely no more than a layman when it comes to understanding stuff like quantum mechanics.

I might have misinterpreted your first comment to mycroft. I thought what you were saying is that while it might be mathematically interesting, it doesn't necessarily have any connection to reality. Afaik, the mathematical framework of String Theory is able to account for everything General Relativity and the Stanard Model predict. But GR is also a mathematical model. The comment about gumbo recipes was a philosophical one. The difference between a recipe for gumbo and a bowl of gumbo is that I can't actually eat the former. The recipe may be an accurate description, but it's not "real" in the sense of being able to fill my belly. So, if I have two recipes for gumbo, my only preference for one over the other is personal taste.

It's not the best analogy. And in some sense, String Theory would be like a recipe that you can't actually cook. String Theory predicts a number of things which apparently can't be tested (currently? or maybe ever?). So, I guess the question is, do you like okra in your gumbo?

Jonny,
I'm not a physicist and don't pretend to be one. I worked my ass off to get through introduction to calculus. Conceptually, as I interpreted what I've read about the strings, it seems like trying to squeeze a square peg thru a round hole. If we mathematically cut off the corners we can make it fit. Though, no doubt, theorists scored big last century. But, I'm just skeptical on this one. Are you in physics as well?
