Gargamel Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 So... I have most of my shower thoughts at work. My job can be very detailed and technical, but often tedious and mundane. Listening to Bill Bryson’s “A Short History of Nearly Everything”. Delightfully excellent book, if it is ~25 years out of date, and would be enjoyed by just about everybody on here. Listening to the part about Halley, Newton, Principia, and gravity while I’m tossing around 20kg lumps of steel. I start thinking about how the Earth Is pulling down on the steel, and I can feel them get heavier. I look down at my feet and yell out “Quit pulling you —-! You’re making this harder!” Notice a coworker looking over and giving me a weird look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adsii1970 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Unrelated to the previous two posts, but I just finished reading Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot. I'm not sure how many tim s I've read it over the years, but it and his other book, Cosmos, are among my most read non-history non-fiction.

One thing's for certain, you might need a bottle of Tums... Two lasagnas, require extra garlic bread. And the way I love lasagna and garlic bread and would probably overindulge myself.

FleshJeb Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 It's a two-stage lasagna. I like asparagus and all, but "lasagna-staging" sounds like the ultimate evolution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try sliced melanzana baked on olive-oil and garlic. You can even replace the pasta with it - besides intercalating pasta and melanzana is better IMHO!

Out of all the things I should have been banned for, and THIS is what you pick?!? Well then, I aim to misbehave. Back in college, I used to pull all-nighters to write my English papers. My performance-enhancement of choice was to take a 32oz Sunny D, drink the top 12oz, then pour a Pepsi in. Repeat 2-3 times as necessary. Yes, it's as disgusting as you can imagine, and it will all but guarantee you spend the hours of 6-7AM in the bathroom. Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColdJ Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 Apart from the obvious that that is back to front. Cats have been known to bring home still alive Brown Snakes (One of the most deadly in Australia) and drop them in the house as a present. So you might want to rethink that one.
