SatinKitty Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings I am having a craving for Vermont Country Store pumpkin fudge. My body must want whatever nutrients pumpkin has. Unfortunately, the pumpkin fudge is only available in October and November. Must wait. Maybe after Gen Con I will cheat a little and make my Autumn pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, called Great Pumpkin Cookies, a month early. They are always a big hit with my Gaming group.

death tribble Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings You deserve this. Trouble With Tribbles On a mission to a station we ended up in the bar There were Klingons and Cyrano, a trader who had travelled far Uhura couldn't resist the fluffy thing he had for sale So she brought it to the Enterprise Which proved to be a big mistake Trouble with tribbles multiplying rapidly Overwhelming the starship, cute little enemy Meanwhile at the station similar problems The cargo being eaten and obviously poisoned But Klingons and tribbles don't like each other at all So a spy was revealed and the plot as well, but what to do with every furry ball Trouble with tribbles multiplying rapidly Overwhelming the starship, cute little enemy I can just about picture and hear Leonard Nimoy singing this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enforcer84 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Wow. My patriotism took a shot tonight. Read some of the comments here (after the article, Dave Johnson, James Roberts and Simon (Hopefully not ours) There are people who think Alicia Sacramone intentionally threw the competition and some are calling her a disgrace. I didn't watch the Olympics so I didn't see miss Sacramone's performance. But, unless she accepted money on the podium I don't see how this vitriol is justified. I hate the internet tonight.

Edsel Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings My mother, bless her twisted mind, has a new theory. Apparently the Russian-Georgian war is a plot by the Bush administration to make people believe that Obama is ill-equipped to handle foreign affairs and to make McCain look like the only viable choice for president. It's okay, I don't her understand it either. I really can't figure out how they got all of those Russians and Georgians in on the conspiracy.

tkdguy Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Is it just me, or is it a bad year for Olympic gymnastics this time around? I'm watching the men's all-around, and people are making a lot more mistakes than I remember seeing in past Olympics. I feel bad for these guys when they mess up, no matter where they come from.

tkdguy Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Let's say you have a TV in your bedroom, and you're watching the Olympics from bed. Your team wins, and you watch the medal ceremony. The national anthem starts to play. Do you have to stand up, or is it okay just to lie down straight?

Cancer Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Next week I do the annual duty visit to take my kids to see my mom. Just how enthusiastic I am about this can be gleaned from the "accident" that it happens the last full week of the kids' summer break.
