The soup's getting cold.

if it's Gazpacho, cold is OK with me. Or any of these cold soups would be quite tasty in my mouth:

Cold borscht – based on beets.
Cucumber soup - based on cucumbers, known in various cuisines.
Dashi soup (Japanese) - fish stock soup, with seasonal vegetables.
Gazpacho – (Spanish) pureed tomato and vegetable soup.
Okroshka – (Russian) kvass- or kefir-based vegetable and ham soup.
Sour cherry soup – A cream-based Hungarian soup.
Salmorejo - (Spanish) Tomato soup with garlic and bread crumbs.
Tarator – A Bulgarian cold soup made from yogurt and cucumbers.
Vichyssoise – (French-American) creamy potato and leek soup, served with chives.
Sayur Asem - An Indonesian soup that tastes sour and spicy.
Naengmyeon - (Korean) buckwheat noodles in a tangy iced beef broth, raw julienned vegetables, a slice of a Korean pear, and often a boiled egg and/or cold beef

A long list of soups,
satisfying quite a few
of my fantasies.

Sometimes I like to put "nonsense" terms into a search engine to see what comes up.

So I just found out that "sexy soup" brings up this tee shirt:

...as well as a photo of eight hefty Asian guys all in a hot tub, a few other sexy pics, and my favorite, that cute girl from Harry Potter in a bathtub.

In case you need to know.

Knowing such nonsense
is what we've come doomed to do,
more elaborately.

We can't repel information of that magnitude!

on a personal note:
I'm a good example of this; unless I have he mentality of get in, get out with the knowledge I initially came in for, it is very easy for one to suscept into "link-jumping" or "topic-turning" for hours on end when you just follow a stray blue underline on Wikipedia. In fact, I've had a "crush" with the tvtropes.org website on-and-off for nearly a year now, but only now, have I realized how big and diverse it has gotten in the mean. It's huge, and nearly everything is interconnected to anything. And it's also quite hilarious and nerdy. What comedy isn't though?

Dude, (and I don't say that often) and they even have an archetype and/or name for this sort of occurrence: the Archive Binge.

I'd rather know than not know, even if it's nonsense, painful, difficult.

Have any of you played with Google Body yet?

Booble? Is that what you were looking for?

I haven't tinkered with Google Body - did not know of its existence - how do I get there?

Thats a very good reason to try google body, right there...


Sorry to break the mood, but this clip is more important.

Get Ready for the Solstice Lunar Eclipse!

The first total lunar eclipse in two years will grace the sky the night of Monday,
Dec. 20, and we want you to be there. Sure, it’s a school night, but with the
winter solstice and a new year upon us, what better time to gather your family
and friends to see the moon in a new light?

At NASA, we’re pretty excited for this year’s lunar eclipse, so we’re offering a
number of features and activities for astronomy buffs and moon-gazers alike.
To learn about the science behind eclipses, visit NASA’s Eclipse page, where
Mr. Eclipse provides information about viewing the eclipse from all over the United States.

Yes! Jet, brilliant minds have something in common ;) I came here just now to post this:


Tonight's the Night!!!

Monday, December 20

•Total eclipse of the Moon late tonight, visible from all of North and Central America. The partial phase begins 1:33 a.m. Tuesday morning EST, total eclipse runs from 2:41 to 3:53 a.m. EST, partial eclipse ends at 5:01 a.m. EST. For our part of the world the Moon will be very high in the sky; in fact from the American Southwest and Southern California it will be near the zenith. The Moon will be centered between the bright constellations Orion, Auriga, Gemini, and Taurus. Read all about it: A Sky-High Lunar Eclipse. Includes a map of the eclipse's visibility worldwide.

P.S.: Cloudy? Here's a webcast! Coca-Cola Space Science Center Webcast

Tuesday, December 21

•This is the longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere; winter begins at the solstice, 6:38 p.m. EST. Gather 'round the fire. In the Southern Hemisphere it's the shortest night of the year and the start of summer; dance in Midsummer's Night merriment.

Wednesday, December 22

•In early evening at this time of year, Cassiopeia floats as high in the north as it ever appears. It's loaded with telescopic sights to seek out. Some lesser-known ones are featured in Sue French's Deep-Sky Wonders column in the December Sky & Telescope, page 66.

Even those yahoos over at Yahoo! know what's up...

Rare twist to tonight's lunar eclipse -- What to watch for >>

I was feeling looney last night so I friended the moon on FB.

Did it accept your request?

Initially I had my hopes up, but eventually Moon admitted that it was already involved with some guy named Out-There-In-The-Shed ("Shed" for short), who proclaimed true love. I'm not sure if it's reciprocal love or just feeling sorry for the guy. I told Moon I have to move on with my life, and expressed my most sincere wishes for eternal happiness for both of them.

See, now, that means the right thing
might be inviting the other in.
It seems they both wanted you.

& I got a palindrome.

Congratulations! And I see your point. Maybe it was the cologne I was wearing.

signed in blood? That means it's true.

Is THAT why they shied away
from further persecution?
Thank you for the clue.

Save it since we only have about 6 quarts of it. In one day, our blood travels nearly 12,000 miles while our hearts beat around 35 million times per year, pumping a million barrels of blood during an average lifetime. For some reason I doubt we're average.

I never liked the word "git", it sounds too gooey. To be a GitHead would not be a good thing IMO.

Edified? Quite simply fied,
as the noises we can make assure,
with tongues much too slippery.

Whatever I said,
that was simply abusive,
at least in the sounds.

I liked the pictures in that they looked like sea-life competing for reproductive space.

That's a fun video, jewels, thanks. That was in Belmar, NJ where they apparently had 32 inches. I'm 65 miles west of there and we only had 11 inches. Our annual Christmas season car club meet/dinner was to be held just north of Belmar tomorrow but now that's been postponed until early January. I hope it's at least 60F by then.

Here's a story that's longest-in-the-tooth:

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...6/oldtooth.jpg
Professor Avi Gopher from the Institute of Archeology of Tel Aviv University holds an ancient tooth that was found at an archeological site near Rosh Haain, central Israel, Monday, Dec. 27, 2010.
Israeli archaeologists say they may have found the earliest evidence yet for the existence of modern man. A Tel Aviv University team excavating a cave in central Israel said Monday they found teeth about 400,000 years old.
The earliest Homo sapiens remains found until now are half as old. Archaeologist Avi Gopher says further research is needed to solidify the claim.
If it does, he says, "this changes the whole picture of evolution."(AP Photo/Oded Balilty)

An additional note in this story said:

Sir Paul Mellars, a prehistory expert at Cambridge University, said the study is reputable, and the find is "important" because remains from that critical time period are scarce, but it is premature to say the remains are human.
Teeth are often unreliable indicators of origin, and analyses of skull remains would more definitively identify the species found in the Israeli cave, Mellars said.

A gainsaying and a misnomer'd cliche.

You can't speculate whether it is "evidence" of human remains: it either is, or isn't - Evident. Furthermore, the trite additional that this could be a momentous key in the further proof of 'modern man'? The proof is right here... in modern times. If proven fact, and I'm merely speculating the scenario here: he was probably an old man, in an age where there was no such thing as 'modern times', (probably because the only sort of 'times' back then was the one sort: 'harsh times') but he was just that. If there's anything I can say for certain, there was no Modern Man 400,000 years ago. That's even older than ancient history. Reaching farther back [in time] than even the Medieval Ages, and to some of us, that's about as old as it gets. Modern Man lives in Modern Times, and it just so happens the Modern Times are forever now, never then (even the Eighties, which might have been Modern at one point or another, is now just 'old news').


Use better journalistic-societal slang next time, please, eh news[moguls]? That's all I ask. Use what is both common AND correct, not one or the other.

Prophecy? There's no such thing.
Trivial nonsense turns this to that,
but then again, there's gossip.

23966

dem dirty news moguls!!! No wonder I dislike TV and most "news".

Though very preliminary and unsubstantiated, the discoverers think that tooth is about 400,000 years old. Homo sapiens are thought to have originated in Africa about 200,000 years ago. So this new found tooth might just be a deformed tooth from some pre-human species who had poor dental hygiene.

Don't feel too BadNick,
since the thinking through timing's
as large as it's quick.

(regarding the tooth,
some dead guy in the forest
THOUGHT what he should do)

We're only 600 pages old... we need to figure out how to become older, faster ..
(I have this pegged already in my real-life, but I don't know how to transfer it here; ramblings about random remembrances can only go so far).

Becoming older faster
isn't even what vampires wish for:
our calendar stays the same.

I had a very pleasant dental hygienist clean my teeth this morning. If in a few hundred thousand years somebody finds one of mine now, it will be nice and shiney :thumbsup: I have one rear molar that is gold so that might be a special find for a lucky person.

A most pleasant part of this cleaning was our conversation about ethnic foods...specifically her Belgian/German/Polish and my Hungarian food experiences. It brought back memories of hunting and nabbing a few squirrels and rabbits for various stews. Plus, it made me hungry and forced me to make plans to head over to the Wayne Farmers' Market tomorrow to get some special sausages. I'll post more details and pics if I end up doing that.

I had a dentist
who employed her plump bosom,
another, her crotch.

I'm not really sure
which one I liked, like, better;
we didn't talk food.

That also sounds like an enjoyable experience.

The dental surgeon at my dentist's office is a beautiful Thai woman that I'd like to nibble on.

The long and the short of it is we only 25 more posts and we'll be at 24,000!!

I'll go check that other thread but in case you beat me to it, not NH.
