El Greco painted the twins, Sts. Peter and Paul.

Later after some further evolution, The Peter Paul Company started making Mounds and Almond Joy and then here we are today.

as far as I'm concerned, a mod can just close this thread right after I post...two good reasons are to save bandwidth, reduce maintenance headaches.

uncle phil · 03-23-2010, 12:42 PM

i could do that...

Jetée · 03-23-2010, 03:12 PM

did I say this was my retro-futuristic thread? I forgot.

anyway, for you widget-heads:

I need to see if this works:

It didn't; I'm so inept.

Halton Arp is one of my favorite astrophysicists...look over the cool book he wrote called "Quasars, Redshifts, and Controversies"

The TIROS-1 was the first weather satellite, launched into a polar orbit on April 1, 1960. Equipped with two TV cameras, TIROS 1 was operational for only 78 days but demonstrated the feasibility of monitoring planet Earth’s cloud cover and weather patterns from space. TIROS satellites eventually began continuous coverage in 1962 and enabled accurate worldwide weather forecasts and alerts. Above is the first TIROS TV image, taken from an altitude of about 700 kilometers. Crude by contemporary standards, it represents the beginning of what is still one of the most important continuing applications of space technology.

Recounting the inventory.

subtract 1 from each of those No.'s above, and I'll like them all the more. /I'm an outside numerologist; I just like certain numbers over others.

BadNick · 03-25-2010, 05:55 PM

same here...that's why 30 is my favorite number in the whole universe. at least as far as I've counted. if I keep counting I might find one I like even more.

I have at least 2 dozen "favorite" numbers, but what i like to call the triumvirate of lucky / supreme / make-me-feel-good-to-see are the numbers 27, 28, and 29.

twenty-eight and twenty-nine, near-equally, I like above twenty-seven, but i also like the latter almost as much both formers.

BadNick · 03-26-2010, 05:24 AM

30 and 6 are my favorite favorites. 57 is also pretty nice for me. I also have a strange attraction to some non-integers, like π aka pi. I also like pies. Are we having fun yet?

Fly · 03-26-2010, 06:38 AM

BadNick · 03-26-2010, 12:24 PM

I'm OK with 13 pies. Do they all have to be the same or can I mix em up?

Fly · 03-26-2010, 12:51 PM

don't matter.........as long as your fingers are in each and every one Nick.........
