Heck yeah!! That, Cash Cab, and How its Made :D

Why can't I meet the Cash Cab? I'd rock. Seriously.

Hi, My name is NM. And I'm a nerd.

150

I thought you justwannabefair and you are trying to beat me by 30 yrs!
I'm working on seeing 120.:D

My family lives until their 90s in fact we have had five generations for years before my paternal grandparents pasted.

My materal grandmother and paternal grandparents live to all be over 95. My paternal grandparents were married 77 years before my grandfather passed away first.

Personally, I think I will be OK if I don't live quite that long, even though none of them ever had to be in a home and continued functioning well all their life, personally I don't think that I am that interested in that long of a life.

I love How It's Made, that show is awesome.

Oh and just about anything on the Food Network, include Good Eats and Unwrapped.

I have your proof my dear.

The chicken came first.

And my logical reasons:

The chicken is capable of caring for its self.

The egg is not.

If the egg came first, there would be no chicken to SIT on it and keep it warm. It would there for, DIE.

Even if the chick managed to live through the incubation process, say, by living in a warm enough climate, it would either be killed as a chick, or would starve without a mothers protection/guidance.

:D

Exactly what I meant by a mothers love.

Love "How it's Made" one of my fav shows.

Here I thought I was the only one.

Nope Alty, there are plenty of geeks here.

Think about it: we're all addicted to answering questions. :rolleyes:

Not really a question, but more of an annoyance, why is it such a big deal that the Myians stopped their calender on December of 2012?

My reason for them stopping, they got bored

How do you stop a calendar on a date that hasn't occurred yet?

Ask the History channel because they are predicting the end of the world on that day

I hate going to sleep because when I wake up, I'm different. The day is different too. Change is a factor but, others don't seem to feel it's an issue. I always feel like I am in two places at once. Mornings are the worst.

Is this a problem for anyone else?

I can't answer yours, but I have a different view...
I LOVE going to sleep because when I wake up everything is different including me. Sometimes the best part of my day is when I am asleep.
I hate/fear change but love it in another way.

Sleep is the long pause before a new light.

Rome, I suggest you watch this, it's interesting and covers the "end times" and religion.

YouTube - Zeitgeist

Enjoy. Let me know what you think;)

Just stumbled in this thread

Zeitgeist I seen it a month ago, I watched it I found it very interesting.

I have so many...
Why do I need to write a list to get things done? And why if I do something that's not on the list, I add it and then cross it off? :confused:

Why does my husband sweep the floor and then insist on showing me the pile of dirt before he scoops it up? :confused:

And in kind.. Why do I do the laundry, fold it and conveniently not have enough time to put it away, like it is there on display. :confused:

Why do I stock up and make tons of food and freeze? There are only 2 of us!

Why did I have to time myself unloading the dishwasher, just to prove to myself that it doesn't take that long, so just do it. 2 minutes. 20 secs. :confused:

Why do I love Nora Jones, Eminem, Barry Manilow, Gypsy Kings, Blues, but hate Pink Floyd?:confused:

OK I'm done for now, I have to go time how long it takes me to vacuum. :D

So you can feel that you've accomplished something.

Why does my husband sweep the floor and then insist on showing me the pile of dirt before he scoops it up?

Men are still Neanderthals, they want to show off what they "caught". He just wants your praise, either that or he's telling you to clean the house more often ;)

Quote:

You fold it so there won't be as many wrinkles on it as there would be if you threw it in a pile. You fold it because in the end you will put it back and folding creates more space than if you were to dump it all in a drawer.

Quote:

I do this too. Only because I know I'm going to have a lazy day where I don't want to cook--- all I have to do is defrost.

Quote:

Maybe you just like knowing that some things are a lot faster, you like seeing little improvements. I like to time myself doing various things too.

Quote:

It's okay. Only old time hippies and burnt out rockhards love Pink Floyd [tee hee!]

Make sure you time that ;)

Thanks Mud, I don't feel so alone anymore:D

1. alzheimers??
2. What you do is not noticed as much as what you do do.
3. at least you get a step further than I do
4. The food mood hits you.
5. bored??
6. now you have convinced me you are confused.
7. earplugs for me I hate listening to the vacuum

Because you need to get all the things you know you've got to do out of your head, so you can prioritise, as for adding new ones then crossing them off, that's for self satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment, it's a good thing :)

One of two things:
To prove to you he does do work around the house sometimes, so you can't say he doesn't help.
Or to brag about how big his pile is, kind of an ego booster, 'look what I've done'

Same as the above, but more in the sense saying, 'yeah look at this, this is REAL house work, forget your pile of dust, look what I can do' :D

In case anyone unexpectedly stays for a meal, that or because when you visit the freezer you like to have a choice,. or because your kidding yourself that because you've stocked up you won't have to visit the supermarket for a while, but deep down you know you will
