^ reminded me of Cat People, strange movie I liked and not just because Nastassja Kinski was in it.

I saw a film one early morning called The Tiger Makes Out (I think).

I'm not sure what the overall point of it was, so I classified it as a bad movie in my head.

I'll find a picture that reminds of the film's title.. (as well as getting around to re-finding that animated .gif of the planets and stars' scale).

Jet, if I recall correctly, There is a vid somewhere in the Found on the net forum.
(The planets and stars' scale)

After you recently mentioned that, I searched hi and lo and inbetween for such an animated gif but didn't find it.

I'm thinking searching
"hi and lo and inbetween"
becomes the seeker.

I was just inspired to search this and found that some people have named their children "Google"

Though it sounds sort of cute, I would not want a child named "Dogpile"

If it referred to
communal activity
& not the other?

2x3=6/1+0

true....getting into a pile of bodies is a nice thing

I've found that wrestling with a few dogs or rolling around with a few humans are both enjoyable activities.

Dogs are easier,
'cuz despite their giant teeth,
we're thinking faster.

I almost added "simpler" to the dogs part above, along the lines of your "easier". But not because of intellect, more because rolling around with humans seems to bring up ulterior motives for me....especially human women. They're just too enjoyable.

The freedoms we feel
are those we tend to cling to
be me thee or he.

I don't run into much anymore, but I'm glad to have had one last chance to speak.

Yeah, but too many ideas and not enough time to investige 'em all really bogs me down.

Can anyone remind me when the bulk of my whole calendar shift, mathematical alignment, 24 to 27-hour day research was? I think it was before the summer transition eclipsed in the sky, but I'm not sure that translates into a page number.

Just in case size matters, here are some long and large ships:

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...S/07120800.jpg
N.A.I. Superba class: 381.9 meters / 1,253 feet
Built by Eriksberg Mekaniska Verkstads in Göteborg, Sweden. It was a massive ship with only two ships in it's class.

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...S/1f16d310.jpg


Emma Mærsk: 397 meters / 1,302 feet
A container ship owned by the A. P. Moller-Maersk Group. When she was launched, Emma Mærsk was the largest container ship ever built. As of 2009 she and her 7 sister ships are the longest container ships constructed and the longest ships currently in use.[1] Officially, Emma Mærsk is able to carry around 11,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) according to the Maersk company's method of calculating capacity,[2] which, at her introduction into service, was about 1,400 more containers than any other ship is capable of carrying. - wikipedia.org

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...sk_mooring.jpg


Esso Atlantic class: 406.6 meters / 1,334 feet
A supertanker that was built in 1977 by Eddsso Eastern Marine.

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...600x600Q85.jpg


Batillus class: 414.2 meters / 1,359 feet

The biggest ships by gross tonnage ever constructed were four Batillus-class supertankers built in France at the end of the 1970s, having 555,000 metric tons deadweight (DWT) and a 414-meter length. Built in the Louis Joubert Lock, they were launched from the shipyard Chantiers de l'Atlantique at Saint Nazaire. The only other ship considered by many as larger was the Knock Nevis (ex Jahre Viking, Happy Giant and Seawise Giant) of 1981, which was originally designed with a smaller tonnage than the Batillus class, but had her length and tonnage increased during construction. -wikipedia.org

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...20Batillus.jpg


Knock Nevis: 458.5 m / 1,504 ft

The Knock Nevis is a massive ship, last used as a floating storage and offloading unit (FSO). She was previously a supertanker and was the longest ship ever built, as well as possessing the greatest deadweight tonnage ever recorded. Fully laden, her displacement tonnage was 646,642 tons, the heaviest of any ship of any kind. For these reasons she was generally considered the largest ship ever built.-wikipedia.org

"With Ships the Sea was Sprinkled Far and Nigh,"

With ships the sea was sprinkled far and nigh,
Like stars in heaven, and joyously it showed;
Some lying fast at anchor in the road,
Some veering up and down, one knew not why.
A goodly vessel did I then espy
Come like a giant from a haven broad;
And lustily along the bay she strode,
Her tackling rich, and of apparel high.
The ship was nought to me, nor I to her,
Yet I pursued her with a lover's look;
This ship to all the rest did I prefer:
When will she turn, and whither? She will brook
No tarrying; where she comes the winds must stir:
On went she, and due north her journey took.

William Wordsworth

This is quite a difficult poem to process, in the rhyming sense...
It seems to go
A

B
B
A
C
D
C
D
C
D

Ah, now that I map it out, it makes a tad more sense in the rhythm and time.

(fun fact: most poems that employ an elementary rhyming scheme attached to its structure, if spoken aloud by thine, ends up being read to the tune of Gilligan's Island. I'm not sure when exactly I lost my way into reading poetry the way it was intended, but if it has a similar, or even a totally different order to its verse of rhyme, I usually try to make it fit to the tv show's tune first, and then I shake my head, because I can't escape from this isle of monotonous speech patterns. It's embedded.)

I wonder what really is happening to us all (in the existential sense) of the whole population, not just the participants of this thread, nor the inhabitants of the forum, but of the entire world.

When I was younger (child) whenever i was in the backseat o my Subaru, or wood-paneled mini-van, or ven as I was just walking (I used to walk for miles each and every day) I always pondered what is the inside of a random stranger's home, their apartment, one's abode. Not just the houses of which I passed across, but how peopel lived in Asia, in Canadia, in Galapagos, where I was born, wheres I once lived, and thus, onwards. I always imagined that no two dwellings were the same, but I'd still come to find similarities.

And that's how my dream super-power of teleportation really found its first use, if I ever achieved it.

I used to pet the glossy pages of the National Geographic magazines & wonder about similar things.

If I see moon-rise

Music guru needed

I have a small dub of a piece of music that I recorded from the movie In The Electric Mist.
I would like to ask your help in identifying it. It is possibly one of the 16 songs listed, but it may also just be some incidental music.
I also would like to know the style of music so that I can search out more music of similar ilk.

Would one of you fine folk accept an email from me so as to hear it and help me out on this?

Zook....

The help I could be
is a matter of question,
but e-mail away!

+ bonus

Jet,
Is there any software tool or website that allows searching based on sound file parameters rather than words? I bet there is but I haven't found it yet.

Sometimes what I read,
let alone how I listen,
makes searching scary.

...hilarious!

Funny you should mention that, Ocm?.

A few days ago I was searching for unusual, creative search tools and came upon one that might even work for the above mentioned sound clip search. But my link for that is on my home laptop and now I'm in work...though technically, I am not working at this moment while "wasting" time here. The software can actually search for pictures, even things in pictures like faces, based on some kind of algorithms that look for text based patterns in the "computer language" that makes up the picture, or sound, or whatever. The guy who developed this has versions targeted specifically for certain purposes, such as facial searches, various objects, and of course one is specifically designed to hunt for pornography of your choice.

//If we don't pretend

I want triangulation,

I "like" algorithms!

I saw a commercial about the iPhone having an app that functions in a similar distinction as you portrayed it (you play a sound snippet, most preferably one of a song, and the app verifies, decodes it, and presumbably, spits back an answer as to what you subjected it to).

I have never tried it.

Wow. Specialization is taking leaps & bounds further within all the time.

Zooks. I would offer my assistance, but I have no sound on my pc right now.
Have you had any luck with your search?

I listened to Zooks' clip and found it to be a haunting melody that I like, but I have no idea who did it or what it is.

Zooks, maybe you want to try this: FindSounds - Sounds-Like Search

Good idea that... but at 20 bucks, I can buy the whole album on Itunes for $16.00

Since today is Veterans Day in the U.S., the "top 5 at 5" picks on WXPN (local radio station plays 5 songs of a certain theme at 5pm each day) were all songs by veterans. This one by Kris Kristofferson, who is a veteran, in some strange way led me to the find above:

Oh, and I forgot: it's nice to have you back in real time, jewels.

Thank you very much for that, Nick.

I swear that I downloaded a song that has that same name, that sound NOTHING like this one, so I ignored songs that had this name.
...


....
Now that I've listened to it a few times, I am actually not convinced that it is the same song either.... Very similar, same band/instruments/style etc, but different tempo, and perhaps chords?

I am not musically gifted, I sing like a cane toad, and can't even play a decent tune on an Ipod, so forgive me if you believe other wise?

And so the search continues..?

Honestly? I'm still looking for that 10th inning-Baseball-Doc-by-Ken-Burns intrumental interlude.

It's so Charlie brown-esque, and hauntingly-beautiful.

- - -
EDIT: here's the context, for a refresher...

I actually meant to reply to this when you orignally posted it - didn't I? (checked; I didn't.)

When I was living in in the tiny left-hand peninsula (Tampa Bay) of the panhandled-peninsula state, I used to have this beautiful park and pond in my neighborhood (it was a half-mile circumference water body, and there was only one not-very-busy-at-all road that led into main traffic by it, so it was always peaceful and serene). It was near a daily routine that mother and I would go to the park, and we'd bring white bread to feed to the ducks and geese. I'm not sure how to transition the story right about here, but one day as I was tossing out scraps twenty feet or so from the pond's edge, I noticed murky-green scales floating towards the food. I never saw the big ones, but there were definitely some child alligators within the pond, and a few were brazen enough to climb the steep embankment from the pond, up onto the grass, and half-chase the birds. It seems they wanted the bread all to themselves.

Hey Jetée, thank you! It's good to be back and see your amazing posts.

'Bout them there gators, I don't recall I've ever seen them crossing the road, but I have seen them in many small bodies of water throughout the state.

But I have seen these crossing the road in the Keys.

http://photos.igougo.com/images/p224...L-Key_Deer.jpg

Zooks,
I'm probably not any more musically gifted than you so my impression may be wrong. But to me it sounds like the same "song" but not the same performance of it. And my searching around seemed to support my conclusion based on what many other people were saying about both the soundtrack and this version of it ...not that that guarantees anything for sure on the internetz.

Musically, I like George Thorogood's version better, which might indicate something.

I saw George and the Delaware Destroyers live a couple times at the Bijou Cafe in Philadelphia ...back in the late '70's when it was still there. The Bijou space is about as large as a sizeable living room so we were about 10ft from him on stage with his serious sound system, all at table level in front of us. We just kept yelling "louder, louder!!!" and he obliged us thorogoodly.

Please speak up, I can't hear you. This was part of what set me in my Bad path.

I was a 'bout to state that I thaught (thunk?) that George's name had a "U" in there somewhere, but then I looked at the poster - the young youtuber typo'd Georgie's name, and not the other way 'round (whereby i have been mistakenly thinking that Thurogood never had a "U" in his name to begin with).

psychedelic venison!

Jet,
I would say "two clicks" is a lot shorter than two minutes, which can be almost an eternity.

I know; but as you know me, my sense of timing is screwy (two minutes later is "on-time" for me).

It's the perfectionist trait. Whence I would have been early, I kept tweaking until I was late.
(is this a poem?)

and you know it

What seems to be the longest running high school football rivalry is the one between Norwich Free Academy (Norwich, CT) and New London High School (New London, CT). It started in 1875 with their Annual Thanksgiving football game, soon to be meeting for the 149th time on Thanksgiving Day 2010. Go Team!!!

in knowing they are.
