You didn't mention this:

The Sci-Fi film Total Recall is set in 2084.

or this...

2074: The Green Wall of China is scheduled to be completed.

I visited Mum for a bit.
I'm on a first name basis with all the fruit-flies in her kitchen.

Perhaps those are the progeny from the former flies from last week, I dunno.

How long do fruit-flies live?

About 10 days, I think.

I had a hundred dozen or so in my bathroom stock after I had opened up a honeydew, and as annoying at it was to spend about ten minutes of my time, both day and night, snapping to a halt about 25 of these buggers at a time, they all mysteriously vanished at the beginning of the third week.

I remember in biology class we used ether to subdue those pesky little fruit flies so we could examine their minute details. Even though he was more into physics than biology, Einstein also had ideas about the ether.

Tophat, buddy...I know you're a fishy guy, but do you know anything about turtles that might help me?

Our red-eared slider, who we got when she was a about 3" L. and is now over 10" L., and in the past has always been active, aggressive, and an eating machine, has not been eating for a couple months. In past years, she typically went into a low hibernation kinda thing during winter months and then started devouring everything again in spring and summer, etc. But this year she seems to be lingering in the hibernation mode; in the meantime she's also layed a few eggs. I was hoping when she was done laying eggs she'd get back to eating before this coming winter's hibernation, but so far that isn't happening. I'm getting tempted to take her to a vet who knows about such critters but haven't done that yet.





while turtles are relatively slow, I posted some high speed nonsense here: http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/tilted-...le-2009-a.html

Don't know what to tell you Nick. Something sure sounds like it must be wrong, though. The Vet sounds like a good call.

2045

E Deus criou a Mulher (how you say, areola alert at the top?)

I like the girls named Rianne Ten Haken, Diora Baird, Helen Hunt, & Sarah Dumont the best

the last one, especially. Sensational. It's Outstanding. It's Beyond Cliché(s). It's Superb Photographic Content. Tantalizing Capture, & A Great Shirt!
(...it makes me want to learn Portuguese even more).

(I think the favicon is a frog, just like Nick's past lifetime.)

I don't know why, but miss Bundchen never appealed to me as she did to the rest of the world. 2Oh-4Oh

I see your reasoning, she is certainly attractive, but I much preferred many other "supermodels" over her, heaps more who were actually Brasilian, and she was probably my fourth favorite of the Victoria Secret's Angels.


Not to name all names, but I certainly am more transfixed by Anne V.

Can I hotlink this?



here's the link anyway: Anne Vyalitsyna

Gisele Bundchen is just a symbol to me, not my favorite anything or top 100 even, or odd.

My post was about "being underwear"...and while I am no underwear expert, it is my impression that Victoria's Secret underwear is, at best, middle of the road stuff, so again, using as a symbol only.
