Such ominous stairs,
like those going to heaven, demand to be climbed. What I most want in my life is to have promoted peace & joy by the end of it. |
Thus, I shall joyfully find more good stuff to post in the waves thread and the stars and space thread. Notifications here shall serve to increase length if not quality.
|
Yeah. I should do the same. :mmhmm:
{by the way, I've grouped your three interests as such, AUTO - WAVES - SPACE in my online photo portfolio. besides the proportionate threads being in three different locales within the forums, they can easily be identified alternatewise by the CAPS. And, they are Nick-0's / Jet's mutual interests.} |
I love you, Jet.
I just found some nice waves stuff that I'm posting in a couple minutes. |
-- (to note: I'm still pondering a way in which to incorporate fanservice! into the SPACE exploratorium. It's not easy, but I think I may have just sparked somethin' in my mental storm.)
Be back. |

I haven't haiku'd
about pencils yet, have I? (They have erasers) |
Very nice. Thanks for coming back.

I might be crazy,
thinking we do some service, being sure we do. |
I'm not sure what I'm doing today, but I'm hoping it pays off some dividends within the next year; if not, I'm just hoarding stuff to embarass myself with thousands of millions of seconds from now.
Can anyone guess the next "holiday"? (grasping) |
May Day, May Day. Then we get 3 days off until Cinco de Mayo, that famous American Civil War holiday.
|
Oh wow, I forgot!
The Mexicans inspire me. Give me peace, melders. |
I think if we could zoom ahead at the speed of light and then blink our eyes at exactly the right frequency, we would see only palindromes. Think?
|
If friction
didn't hurt our orbs & lids blinked. |
WD40 might help with that.
|
Yes, WD40
is amazingly like duct tape, ain't it, if oppositely, for its purpose? |
Longing for more duct tape solutions, your words inspired me to find Aunt Dinah's Duct Tape Diner Welcome to the Duct Tape Diner
|
seven, nine & nine
is such clumsy construction, I wish you would call. (Does duct tape really work on horses' hooves? The Stallions could use it!) |

//The findings happenstance gives
are incredibly satisfying when your need to know knows limits.// (I didn't have anything to go with mexican-mask-excited pooch, but Cinco de Mayo Feliz to my friends here.) |
Thanks, Ocm?. I hope you don't mind if I belt down a couple Negra Modelo in your honor at lunch tomorrow.
Btw, am I to understand that Cinco de Mayo is a holiday celebrating Hispanic and Mexican participation in the U.S. Civil War? Doesn't matter, I can drink to that. |
I have no idea what the celebracion is about, so I'll be inclined to believe anything that sounds fairly plausible.
|
Talk about plausible, I took this pic near home earlier this evening. I love rainbows...to share one with a friend is a true Bud Light.

it's not for independence, no more specific. I'll be going to the parade in West St. Paul, in any case. Nice rainbow picture, coming from the flower shop, like they're projecting! |

What's the true meaning,
if you'd be so kind to tell? I'm still, unknowing. 24+7=31 |
If only I knew for sure. But I think this recent Wiki version is as accurate as any explanation I've heard...but I'm open to learn better if anybody says so.
Cinco de Mayo (Spanish for "fifth of May") is a holiday held on May 5. It is celebrated nationwide in the United States and regionally in Mexico, primarily in the state of Puebla. The date is observed in the United States as a celebration of Mexican heritage and pride, and to commemorate the cause of freedom and democracy during the first years of the American Civil War. In the state of Puebla, the date is observed to commemorate the Mexican army's unlikely victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of General Ignacio Zaragoza Seguín. Contrary to widespread popular belief, Cinco de Mayo is not Mexico's Independence Day, the most important national patriotic holiday in Mexico, which occurs on September 16th. |

http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kx...5q5oo1_500.jpg Umi-bōzu are giant black bulbous beings that live in the sea. Sometimes they have glowing eyes & a beak, and other times they have no facial features at all. To survive an umi-bōzu encounter at sea, one should remain quiet and look in the opposite direction. Speaking or looking at the creature may send it into a rage — and that usually ends in tragedy. |
Being forgotten,
meaning unremembered, beats not being here. ((2x4)+7)/3=5 |
How much do I suck, I wonder?
It's also kind of sharply-felt how much that descriptor of the umi bozu resembles what I've made myself out to be. Coincidental - yes. It also leaves me feeling stone cold as to why, for no good reason, everyone, including myself, have gone ahead and pushed all-in into pushing my contributions into the hidden well. -- (to note: I also woke up this morning in the middle of a virtual editation of a bad dream in which The_Jazz had finally announced the character known as Jeteee would be no more, without even informing me intimately as to why. I've just fulfilled the first half by recognising its existence. Say farewell.) Are thee, thou? (faring thee well?) |
I was looking for stuff about afterlife and found this.

While looking for stuff
I couldn't find it, searching; I just have to wait. Jetee, seriously? Your contributions are invaluable, & as far as I know The_Jazz has no reason to damn you. |

cool cave dive!
It reminds me of Journey to the Center of the Earth (the original 1959 version) which is one of my favorite movies. |
What will we do, Nick?
At six sixty nine ahead, the monster's well-fed. I'm a little disappointed in our comrades, both former & future. |
I can't hold it against them. People drift and lose interest unless they make it a "mission". Not that I've made it my mission. I feel like I'm just dabbling. But I'm happy liking this thread more than the other one and you're here.
I suddenly became curious about what "dabbling" means so I looked it up and found mostly this: http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...d-dabbling.jpg |

Howdy dudes and dudettes. Wasn't the wedding nice... A quick post before I head out yet again. Only 8 months to go, for this contract... . |
hi Zooks. I love the new princess. I wish we could give back all that tea we dumped in Boston and pretend that little thing never happened.
Hey, if you can post a pic showing where you are. |
|
I want to visit AU sometime soon, maybe explore for a month or so.

Money is no object since I would plan this around a business trip that would essentially be subsidized by my fellow tax payers. My business buddy John Brown has some good business developments going on down there.
|
Money's no object?
Fellow taxpayers confused? Can I come along? ((2-4)+7)+4)=9 |
I would love you to come along...assuming I'm going in the first place, which is still somewhat of a longshot. I think we'd have a great time. But the "authorities" to whom I report seem to be so narrow-minded that I doubt we could convince them of the benefits of this idea...even though with even just a few minutes of my background story you'd be more of an expert in potential AU business than any of them...in case you were not already an expert on that.
I'm slacking off on my drive to travel for work vs for just personal pleasure. Personally I'd love to travel to every nook and cranny of our world. But for work, most of the time I'd rather send somebody else even though I'm the best at it :) ...I'm not invested deeply enough to leave the family for the sake of work, it's not my business or life, I just work here. |
Ripped out by the roots,
I'm not sure I'm still alive, but I'm still typing. |
Probably by the time I'm really good at typing, it will be an obsolete talent. I wonder what "more advanced" ways we will have to put our words into posts in the future?
|
When we're really good,
all our worries disappear, or so I've been told. ((2x4)+7)/5=3 |
Sometimes I worry that I don't have anything valuable to say, but I know eventually another idea will pop into my head. I have confidence and patience.
|
Such confidence and patience
never goes unrewarded, does it? I'd say we are lucky men. |
Aww you guys :hearts: You are lucky men.
|
With liberal tendencies,
you must know what your appearance means. I feel even luckier. Are you gonna stick around, a bit? Please? |
so lonely...
|
I thought carrots tend to bunches, no?
|
if they do, nobody told me about it
|
So I just had to look at your "public profile" and noticed you are a handsome guy, so I suspect you might just be in one of those time periods everyone goes through where things are not where you would like. I've been through more than a few of those times so I'm sure things will change for the better if you want them to.

Who doesn't want that? Knowing I'm not one of them won't leave me alone. |
i didn't understand
not that its upsetting positivity received? is that a haiku? i never know |
Positivity receiving,
so there can't be confusions unshared, life remains a beauty thing. |
I'm now on the beach in Avalon, NJ where my nephew is getting married in about 2 hours from now. I'm looking forward to seeing how some of the ladies walk on the beach in high heels. Btw, contrary to most weather reports it's 72F out now, there is a refreshing cool breeze and the sky is bright and clear.
|
Kiss the bride for me.
The sacredness of marriage is up for debate. |
i hate texas hold'em
|
|

Fuck y'all. Timing's limiting. Spacing flows. |
I kissed the bride, and also my nephew the groom. High heels weren't a problem since everyone was barefoot.

NICE picture, BadNick!
The weather picture-perfect? Sand's a fine substrate. |
Thanks, Ocm?.
On another note, I got the two Klondike Gold azaleas I ordered from Meadowbrook Farm. They are the two yellow/orange/goldish ones on my step. http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...ondikeGold.jpg One is for my mom and one is mine. Something I didn't know is that unlike most common azaleas which are evergreen, these are deciduous. Apparently there is something about the biology of deciduousness that produces unique colors not found in the evergreen varieties. |
Near the forty-fifth,
azaleas lose their leaves. Rhododendrons don't. I admire them both. Some blooming here this springtime are magnificent. |
Longest Thread Ever....
Came upon this "Longest Thread Ever" and thought it would have many subjects! I can't even list how many different subjects were introduced in the 30 or so pages I read so..(No, I could not devote enough time to read them all!) But the ones I liked best were these last about the haiku, golden orange azaleas and the perfect wedding in the sand. (Mention to the family it brought a smile!) And I'm sure I missed some good subjects! I'll be back! I am a posting member of the longest ebay rant ever they are threatening to pull, and I was wondering how long threads get. Yours is a good one! But what is even more interesting is you are closing in on the 100,000th posting on the entire forum! Should have a party!
|
Happy to see you!
Come back often & posting, & join in the fun. (2/4)+7=7.5 |
Nice to hear from you,
emoevo, and I hope to see you back soon That's a BadNick version of peg-leg haiku...a little limpy but still getting along. |
http://www.hvmag.com/core/includes/p...jpg&w=610&q=85
Some days I'd rather be walking on a peg leg than my own bum foot. (Look, I got triple sevens! What do I win?) |
I'm surprised I haven't posted this pic yet in this thread since I'm pretty sure I posted it in at least one other thread here, maybe two. But it's never too late to make amends so here it is ...actually now that I look at it I'd say it tasted better than this pic makes it look so perhaps it's not as photogenic of a sandwich as some others I've known:

That pic makes it look
like it makes my mouth water as well as dlish. |
I was here all day today, drove as fast as I could, had a great time, nobody got hurt, didn't blow up my car. Burma Shave.
http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...hunderbolt.jpg |
|
How are you today, Ocm??
|
I dunno, BadNick,
I raced down the highway today, sans satisfaction. |
Maybe if you try rolling down the highway instead of racing? I know when I just resolve myself to being at peace and in no hurry and just roll into work, I feel more satisfied when I get there than if I was racing and in a hurry and getting impatient with people getting in my way. Either that or if you're into public transportation, take the peace train.
|
Racing, in that case,
not exceeding speed limits... sometimes it feels fast. (I guess I'm getting old or something.) |
Do you know anyone alive who is not getting older?
|
A fine, valid point,
& quite lovingly given, & taken to heart. (2x4)+7-8=7 |
http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...x422_popup.jpg
Mother Nature chose this bleakly beautiful Arctic landscape to leave her mark in the form of a stunning heart-shaped lake. It has emerged as climate change melted the glacier that covered the area. Blocks of ice trapped during the glacier’s retreat caused the ground to cave in, creating a heart-like hollow, some 120ft by 90ft, that then filled with rainwater or snow melt. The picture was taken by French photographer Bruno Mazodier on Spitsbergen, the largest island in the Svalbard archipelago. |

Such perfect comfort, inordinate joy's bearings, encompass us all. |
|
Haha, BadNick.
We all assume things, left & right & not middling, around enjoinings. We all assume things, but it shames those few of us who can't accept them. I've come to a point where I don't care what's longer: I just love this thread! |
|
Games for only two
have their place in life, I guess. I prefer dogpiles. (excellent song choice, BadNick.) (Have you read I think<3 is a piss-poor symbol for love?) |
I don't know if you mean there is something specific I might read about that, which I haven't, or if you mean that you don't like that symbol.
In any case, I don't like it since why would I want to represent "love" with what is at best a tipped over heart symbol? |
My vague disturbance,
meant to be all-inclusive, ain't much like a cruise. ...sorry. |
I hope I didn't post this already...I think I haven't. I like this pic (found, not mine).
A pigeon in Philadelphia: http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...hilapigeon.jpg |
Apparently, the above photograph is quite the popular one.
it's entitled "Puddle in Rittenhouse Square Philadelphia", and is authored by one Michael Penn. - - - I originally just wanted to post this and skedaddle. http://i51.tinypic.com/t7iwy8.jpg -- (to note: This happened just this past week, I think.) |
Wow! Super Mom!
Jet, thanks for noting the source of the pigeon pic. I think that's actually where I found it (flickr) but I forgot the source since I didn't note it when I saved it. |
I'm actually making it an endeavour to, at the very least, look at all the mountains of flickr pics, a second time for most, in which I've posted in the TFP throughout the years, and seeing if I can 'flickr fav' them.
|
I took this pic earlier today to remind me to go back and have a tripe sandwich soon. George's is on corner of 9th and Christian Sts.
