    Or it's an Invasion of the Sex Lizards from Outer Space.

    or sexeh cluster lizards from the light universe.


    it would've been fun if they'd done a role change episode on Lexx. Kai as the programmed luv slave, Zev as the undead assassin. Stanley ... as Stanley. 790 with a luv interest mantrid drone.

    trying to think of props you'd find in a rpg-ish village. no wanna do barrels.
    signage of different varieties. water troughs for rpg-ish horses. flower beds for fairies to buzz around.
    no sense doing another privvie, except to leave a vacant section for the FairyTale privy. actually, rpg-ish they may have some mage made answer to plumbing issues.

    may be worth it to get your # changed?

    if they call from the same #, you could prolly assign it a silent ring, if it lets you personalize rings.

    Given that I'm getting calls from the same number, I could put them on silent. I did put my number in the do not call list. Though I'm tempted to hand the phone to fiancé to swear at them if they keep calling. I don't sound intimidating when I cuss

    When I get a scammer on the phone I've been politely asking them to hold on for "a second" and putting the phone down. Most hang up after a couple of minutes but one guy held on for almost 15 :lol:
    I like that idea. Can't use it myself because on my cell plan I'd be paying for those minutes. Recently I've gotten a few of those calls where the caller is pretending to be from Microsoft and supposedly alerting me to the presence of "bugs and viruses" on my computer, which they will remove for a fee, of course. Rather irritating because even though I know it's a scam, I'll start worrying about whether my computer really is infected.

    I've tried various approaches like requesting that they e-mail me instead of calling (without providing my email address, of course), or claiming that they must have the wrong number since I don't own a computer. Next time I think I'll tell the caller that I'm very fond of my viruses and intend to keep them! :smirk:

    I get those, too. Usually it sounds like an Indian, maybe they're calling from India, too. If it was Microsoft the caller ID would say Microsoft...I've actually had them call once. I was on a support call and they called back when they had an answer.

    There is a chance that I might get my own room but there is also a chance that I might not. I am hoping I can get my own room so won't have to deal with pesky roommates anymore.

    I have to share a bathroom but I want my own room where I can go and get away from people. I have had such bad luck with roommates.

    I do not mind Stephane and Kurt being my roommates. I do not mind that they are lazy as Bettas. I do not mind taking care of them. They only ask for food and I believe Kurt is asking for a bigger tank. I want to spoil them.

    Why do Santa's elves tend to look like children?

    Ow. Here I am, in stage two drought conditions, it's hotter than the apocalypse, not a single drop of rain all week(at least anywhere within five miles from work) and a mosquito bit my elbow, right where it normally rests on the desk. Now I have a big inflamed region on my arm

    Product label silliness from a specialty foods order this morning.
    1: "This is a carbon neutral product" on a bottled water brand's case:
    Let's see..... Water got PUMPED out of the ground. TRUCKED to the bottling plant. Injected into PLASTIC bottles by AUTOMATED machinery. Bottles placed into a CARDBOARD box via AUTOMATED machinery. It then has to be TRUCKED to a wholesaler and then TRUCKED to a retailer.
    2: Apparently "preservative" is such a bad word in part of the "natural foods" community that rosemary extract and ascorbic acid must both be called an "antioxidant" on the ingredient list of a package of pita chips.
    Gave me a good chuckle this morning.

    ...I still chuckle when I'm in the natural food market and spot bottles of "Organic" Canola Oil on the shelf. There is no "Canola" plant, the oil is made from a Genetically Modified variant of the Rapeseed plant (which in it's pure unmodified form is primarily an industrial oil) first created in a lab in Canada (hence the name "Can-ola") back in the 1970s. Funny that many who work or shop there and will voice their displeasure over the use of "GMOs" seem oblivious to the product's true origin.

    Why don' tyou start mentioning it to shoppers when you're in that area. "did you know that canola oil is actually....?" You might stir up enough attention that the management starts to look into it.

    Dana
    ...the market is part of a national chain of "natural" food markets HQ'd in Indiana or Ohio I believe and the oil is their "house" brand. I will need to contact their home office about this as it just seems a bit like "false" advertising. OF course the practise of labelling something as "organic" has come under fire repeatedly as it doesn't have to be totally so, just some of the ingredients so the Rapeseed plants the oil is derived from may be grown "organically". Pure Rapeseed oil was used in cooking and foods (still is in several brands of commercial Peanut Butter) last century but use was curtailed due to health risks.

    For peanut butter, you are best getting the "grind your own" kind as there is no added sugar, salt, or oil.

    By cutting both Canola and HFCS out of my diet a couple years ago I notice I am beginning to feel better as well as losing weight.

    Blah, had three calls right in a row from places I don't have any family or friends that would know my cell. Kingsville, tx, Phoenix, az and Florida- all spam I'm sure, especially how one would end and the next call occurred in less than two seconds (literally back to back). Especially annoying when I'm on the phone with the head of our department regarding a map she needs ASP

    They left no voice message so I'm left to wonder if they wanted to sell me a home insurance plan or new electrical provider, as that's the messages I got this first time I got a weird out of state calls

    Put your number on the national do not call list! It takes 30 days for it to propigate to everyone, but then the spam calls should stop. And if they don't, you can report them and they'll be fined. Certain types of calls are not under this...charitable organizations, surveys, and political campaign type calls I think. There may be one other type I'm forgetting.

    ...Orcs tended bust up the place getting into fights amongst themselves, Trolls were just too clumsy, while the Brotherhood of Dwarven Fabricators Local #701 demanded collective bargaining, profit sharing, medical, and four ale breaks per day.

    ...oh, and fairies were considered too flippant and unpredictable as well as leaving the place several inches deep in fairy dust which aggravated Mrs Claus's allergies.

    Friday, Friday, and as Rebecca Black says, you gotta get down on Friday! :coolsmile:

    BUT.. I still have complaints! :bug:

    - More rain, dark and dreary out, want to go back to bed
    - Spent all this month's content money this morning
    - Need to make a bank run.. in the rain..
    - My umbrella is tiny and I get soaked easily
    - Reheated chicken isn't as tasty as freshly fried
    - Feel aimlessly cranky

    Non-complaints:

    - I got Teen Josie for FREE, she's been in my wishlist for weeks, finally a sale I liked
    - Loaded up on fancy shaders
    - All weekend to render :cheese:
    - Ravens stomped the 40-whiners :snake:

    Fun times.. :P


    ...already have the Kid. Sadly not only does one have to spend 50$ but Steph6 isn't even a part of the deal

    SeaSquawks fell to Denver as well. Tomorrow it's the Packers and the Titans. Packers have a real pass rush this year after getting Peppers from 'Da Bears and filling serious defensive needs in the draft. Also did well in the wide receiver and OL departments.

    no lottery win. sighh. i need a driver like in driving miss daisy, where i'm the daisy. i get nervous watching the craziness of the drivers on the long island roads.
    hard to believe just 4 years ago i was one of them. 5 years ago i was doing 2 - 4 mile nature trails in Connequot State Park.
    perspectives >.< now i think about it when it's time to walk to the restroom.

    You need to move to Seattle. If the Starbucks has a long line, you walk to the next block to use the one there...
    ...same here in Portland.

    ...actually pretty easy. If you are uncertain you can always ask one of the floor clerks to show you.

    Fresh is so much better and tasty. Just peanuts, nothing else, and none of that messy stirring like you need to do with the natural PB in a jar. The store where I go to also has fresh ground almond butter as well.
