    Obama Signs Global Internet Treaty Worse Than SOPA

    Yes, this was obvious when Obama got this treaty rolling in 2006. No that can't be right. This treaty was drafted by then President Bush as part of his well known policy of helping small businesses,by mandating that ISPs can't host software that can access and play copyrighted media, thus...

    I think you're freaky and I like you a lot...

    Demon? Did you say demon? How can he be a demon when he's wearing a skirt made from the US flag? No, he's an American horned gentleman, and his heart is as big as all outdoors (well, it was). Glad you mentioned the flag, though. It shows for less than a second, I think, but it changes a bit of...

    Chances?

    Well, I'm impressed! I was an APA 7 when I could still see the table clearly. I played and beat the Black Widow in Vegas in one of those "pay to play the pro" games some years back and was impressed by how she managed to make it look as though I really won by giving me some great leaves! :D

    Chances?

    Sounds as though you are doing everything right. Idolos are dumb and you can never predict what they will do next. Good luck with the tournament. Vegas? Are you APA, or have you risen above that? :D

    1st attempt at FF culture

    Mvalenz: Those substitutions will get you every time! Vinegar doesn't really do anything -- it's useless as a mold inhibitor and does little to stimulate egg laying, especially since you had a rotting banana in there. Honey, though, unless well mixed in, where it will do neither harm nor good...

    just one question

    Well, you've got all our support, Paul, but then we are all addicts! But moms are supposed to criticize their kids' hobbies. Sunny is a very good cook and provides every real meal that her mom eats, but mom still complains about the tidiness of the kitchen. Yesterday, after we had made coq au...

    @Henry: Always happy to learn from an expert! I guess that I should point out a technical error in the video, though. When the horned gentleman's heart is torn out, it is clearly a human-type (mammalian) heart, but it is beating at a steady rate which suggests normal sinus rhythm. In fact, the...

    Is there another species of Popa?

    Earlier i mentioned that Popa gracilis occurs in Malawi, home of one of the rift lakes or African great lakes, the largest of which is Lake Victoria that in my lifetime experienced perhaps the greatest extinction event in history. A number of ecologists argued in the 1950s in favor of...

    Many thanks to all you mantiseers who saw that I mistakenly described this as rap and were too kind to correct me. Sunny was less forgiving and pointed out that the song is "classical"(her word) industrial and I have to stand corrected. In an attempt to regain my status, I asked her what she...

    something funny

    HA! HA! a word to the wise. If you are cheating on yr spouse, do not put all yr money in a joint account! 40 yrs ago, the current wife with whom I was breaking up said "I had the silly idea, the other day, that you had pulled all the money out of our joint account." When i told her that I would...

    I think you're freaky and I like you a lot...

    Yeah, Sunny brought some tracks back from LA This is rap, so it won't really "open up". I guess that "die Antwoord " means "the answer" in Afrikaans, but I'm not sure what the question is.. Their stuff is is not just "crazy" but refreshingly filthy. A translation of “Jou Ma Se Poes In ‘N...

    Is there another species of Popa?

    Don't look for this one in your local pet store any time soon, Happy. This link tells the dismal story: http://mantodea.speciesfile.org/Common/editTaxon/SearchForTaxon.aspx and IGM and Terra Typica have nothing on it. nor does the TAMU (Texas A and M University) have anything in their data...

    Is there another species of Popa?

    My goodness, guys! If you had Googled <mantodea genus popa> you would have discovered Popa gracilis and saved yourselves from posting some rather unnecessary stuff. There are three recognized subspecies of Popa and, as Alex mentions, all three can interbreed. He is also correct in...

    White poop.

    White poo is good poo. In the wild, mantids survive humidity of nearly 100%, rain and storms, so a little spraying won't hurt them.

    Ok, so we're all into insects, is there any aquarium people here?

    I've been building and painting military miniatures since I was 12, on and off. If I neglect them for a while, they don't die or try to escape but just wait to welcome me back. And for anyone who may confuse miniatures with (meep) toy soldiers, take a look at this...
