I just stumbled upon this myself earlier today! I watched all the KYM videos, but rocketboom has other stuff that I plan on watching later...if it's half as good as KYM it'll be great Everything...for teh lulz.

I've been working at the Blackwell since fall quarter. It's shitty, but it's mindless and an easy paycheck. I've been sending out apps for clerical positions (read: secretary stuff) just for a change of pace, but it's not going well. Got a phone interview last week, but I think I screwed up and f'd my chances. Oh well, I just consider it a learning experience. Also, like Tomcat said, there are a lot of gay people for some reason. Not that it's a bad thing, but ya gotta watch what you say.

Hence my post It's more self-focused and indulgent than anything.

If it could somehow get sunlight, I think a lung would be a pretty good environment for a plant, considering how plants produce oxygen and lungs produce carbon dioxide. However, photosynthesis obviously wasn't taking place, thus no carbon dioxide would be needed. I stand by my theory that it was just going off of the nutrient stores from the seed and that it wouldn't have survived much longer than it did given the lack of sunlight and soil. Not like a dead tree is much better than live one when we're talking about it growing inside of your body though.

Eh, a true Satanist would make a really bad soldier, what with the intense selfishness that Satanism emphasizes and all. One of the Hollywood movie satanists would be a cool soldier...summoning demons and everything.

http://www.russiatoday.com/Top_News/2009-04-13/Fir_tree_man_shocks_doctors.html A young man from the capital of Russia’s Udmurtian Republic was diagnosed with cancer, and had to undergo an operation which revealed the shocking truth – he had no cancer but… a tree growing in his lung. It sounds like a story from Burger’s Adventures of Baron Munchhausen, when the eccentric Baron shot a cherry stone at a deer and it sprang into a cherry tree on the deer’s head. For 28-year-old Artyom Sidorkin, though, it was no fun at all. As Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper found out, he often had chest pains, and was coughing up blood. An X-Ray showed a new growth in his lung, and doctors were certain it was a cancerous one. Fortunately, when they dissected Artyom’s chest, it was decided to cut out a small piece first, and to carry out an express biopsy test. The doctor made an incision in the lung and saw… a fir tree. “I thought it was a hallucination,” said Vladimir Kamashev, deputy head doctor of the Udmurtian oncology hospital that was carrying out the operation. “I said to my assistant – come here and take a look…it seems as if there was a fir tree there…!” The assistant later confessed that at the first moment he thought that Kamashev went mad. The sprout appeared to be 5 cm long. Doctors are shocked – they say Artyom could not breathe in or otherwise ingest the twig. It means he somehow sniffed the seed – and it sprouted inside his body. “To tell the truth, I didn’t feel I was carrying some foreign object inside me – and moreover that it was growing. But it was very painful,” Artyom said. The piece of lung containing the fir tree was put into a special solution, as it is a unique exemplar. ------------- I just had to post this. I've read a lot of weird news on the internet in my time, but for some reason, this creeps me out more than anything in recent memory. This type of thing isn't supposed to happen...I'm not supposed to have to wonder "man, is this chest pain because I'm out of shape or because THERE'S A TREE IN THERE?!" Seriously. Just look at that pic. Wtf

You go to hell. You go to hell and you die.

If I'm the captain of a cruise ship, I don't care if the guy has a pair of water wings and an RPG. He still has an RPG that can kill a ton of your passengers and possibly sink the ship. I guess modern piracy is one situation where the size of the ship really doesn't matter after all All they need to do is station some ninjas on each ship. Ninjas flip out and kick pirates asses all day and then bang hot chicks when they're done.

Kudos to him for being so hands-on

I'm up for a ride depending on the route. I can't help but hit the twisties on the weekends anymore...I'm completely addicted this season

I think it's an escape plan; they probably figure that if it's not too expensive they'll take care of it, but if it's going to be really pricey to get the bike running again they'll give it back saying "We fixed most of it, except for the part that didn't work to begin with"

She'll walk, and bikers get an even worse image in the public eye

Sounds like it was a good time...sorry I couldn't make it; went for a nice long ride out around Hocking and was way too tired to leave the house once I got back

Last time I was at Giant Eagle, I turned the corner to go to the meat case and saw a sale sign by the bacon. I quickly looked around to see if anyone else was heading to the same place, and literally rushed over to grab a ton of it before anyone else had a chance to clean em out, almost as if I were somehow pulling a caper on Giant Eagle and everyone else in the store. I don't need a damn quiz to tell me just how ridiculously addicted I am to bacon (and breakfast food in general) *edit* Thanks to this thread, I think I'll have an omlette with sausage and bacon for dinner. Same thing I had for breakfast

Stephen Lynch is the MAN. I saw him live on campus 2 years ago...freaking hilarious. Some of my favorites: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpWB_ZiFy-Q http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FvwhwJ6oLk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijFetGGrhRw

Suicide is such a boring explanation for this story. Couldn't it have been like...the woman was on shrooms and thought that she was Mario and that the kid was a Goomba?

10 AM or a bit later, depending on when Bkizz gets his car back from the mechanic.

Put me down as a "maybe later in the afternoon/evening". I'm taking a ride down in Hocking that morning/afternoon...I'm going to go insane if I don't get out on some twisties soon. Providing I don't wreck during the ride or pass out from exhaustion when I get home, I'll probably swing by and say hi. I'll try to bring some chips and some specially formulated home made dip, but we'll see what happens. Is it acceptable to just bring some cash to give if we don't bring food? I don't wanna show up and eat without contributing anything.

I'm interested but am still undecided. I'll probably know by the end of today though.

Just a thought; would it be possible to add in the ability to customize the small box of smilies next to the text box you see when not using quick reply? It'd be sweet if we could customize that box on a per-user basis so it could become sort of a 'quick list' of our most used/favorite smilies. As of now the thing is pretty useless, as I never use any of those and I always end up hitting "more" and scanning the huge list for the one I want.

You might be SOL as far as parking right outside; High is all torn to shit on that side of the street and I don't think there's parking on the other side. I'm just taking my bicycle and hoping I can find a lamppost to chain it to or something.

Guess I'll see you hip kids tomorrow (later today technically). I'm gunna be "that guy" and wear my ohio riders shirt...was gunna wear it to class anyway

I really never had the problem with my HJC CL-15 and it's visor. My new FS-15 came with a clear visor and that thing fogs like mad (though it was in sub-40 degree weather yesterday), and the dark smoke I bought is pretty bad too. The old CL-15 visor that doesn't fog badly doesn't quite fit the FS though, so I don't use it. Plus it's scratched to shit :\
