Starfield

There's not a lot to Starfield and it just barely qualifies as a time waster, but it's still pretty cool. 

There's no ability to alter the parameters, but by moving the cursor in any direction, the "stars" speed up and you can hold the left mouse button down to create tails.


Don't Leaf Here

Without taking this quiz.

You Are Down to Earth

You are a very practical person, and you don't get swayed by flights of fancy.

You believe that there are at least two sides to every issue, and you consider each side carefully.

You are motivated by security and certainty. You don't like to take a risk unless the downside is minimized.


You are loyal and faithful to those important to you. It would take a lot for you to fall out with someone. 


 

Morganna the Kissing Bandit



I've only been to a "gentleman's club" a few times in my life; a couple times with a bunch of friends as we celebrated one's upcoming nuptials and once to go see Morganna and her huge snake.   Well, not so much the snake.  To be honest, I always felt uncomfortable at those places, not because I'm a prude, but because I felt sorry for women who had to debase themselves for money.

I knew who she was because I had seen her on the news after she had ran onto the field and kissed a ballplayer. Sometimes she got into trouble, getting beaten up after one attempt and arrested several other times. She stood trial in Houston, Texas, where her lawyer used what he called the "gravity defense" to explain her unauthorized presence on the field, arguing: "This woman with a 112-pound body and 15-pound chest leaned over the rail to see a foul ball. Gravity took its toll, she fell out on the field, and the rest is history." The judge laughed and dismissed the case.

roger


roger rog·er [roj-er] interjection
1. Informal. all right; O.K.
2. message received and understood (a response to radio communications).
3. (often initial capital letter ) Jolly Roger.
4. (formerly used in communications to represent the letter R. )



Seeing as how I've never been in the military nor been a pilot, this word is one I never use. I think I've only personally known two people named Roger; one was an upperclassman back in high school and the other was a football coach in junior high. When I see or hear the word "roger", I think of this scene from the 1980 movie Airplane!.



Meet Your Meat

Eye opening...to say the least. If you watch, please do so all the way through. The ending is not only symbolic, but a dire warning.



The name of this video was "SAMSARA food sequence" and I wasn't familiar with the term; here's the Wiki entry for Samsāra, which means "continuous flow" and is the repeating cycle of birth, life, death and rebirth (reincarnation) within Hinduism, Buddhism, Bön, Jainism, Taoism, Yârsân.  In Sikhism this concept is slightly different and looks at one's actions in the present and consequences in the present.
