Thread Hijacking!?!?

[minimaker]

Just read the thread and though I\'d react on the mechanical engineering related ones:

- right hand rule: also works for screws. Finger move in way the screw turns, thumb points to direction it goes.
- aluminium: http://www.worldwidewords.org/articles/aluminium.htm
- home-made robots: interested but I don\'t have the time. Cindy\'s boyfriend is into it but you won\'t find him on this list since he has no interest in miniatures whatsoever.

Markus: great write-up on the English language.

So, how many subjects have we had in this thread?

 

[provoke_me]

hmm things seem to stay on topic for far too long!

how many cheerios are in a box of cheerios?
or at least, whats the average number?

what do bandaids taste like?

A little like more \"plastic-y\" than an ace bandage.

In other sadder news, blazing fireball closes the interstate: http://www.kirotv.com/traffic/4571875/detail.html

I hate those blazing fireballs, unless godzilla makes them. Then they\'re cool.

Remember, only you can prevent blazing fireballs.

On a lighter not, I was at the catherdral today and the night-church priestess came in. She offered kindly to perform a ritual, but I declined.
Amused, her secretary looked the other way.

Matt Varnish part one or two was never finished


poor man stuck in the middle of the story like that....

 

[Dragonsreach]

Yep you could say that Varnish just dried up.....

 

[dauber22]

...or that Matt Varnish just got to be too dull.

 

[ipaintminis]

he was a bit foggy over the details?


he didnt apply himself correctly?

 

[marineboy]

Much was glossed over...

 

[Lurch]

Its all right though. The story was a bit flat.

The Varnish story was getting so thick I was losing the details.

 

[airhead]

Everybody\'s getting all frosty on poor Matt.

 

[provoke_me]

plasticy eh? interesting. im curiouse to know how you founf out.
as for the cheerios, i hope to be getting a new box of them soon. i will then make a mess and start counting.

and now *gasp* im going to go paint minis!

 

[Lurch]

I say we strip the story down to bare metal and start over.

 

[airhead]

Lurch, I\'d almost say you were smiling at those last two.

But I agree, the stories did get a bit thin.

And they all learn how to speak Esperanto, which becomes the official language of the planet.
