Off-topic randomness - a place to ramble?

[VegasMonarch]

i got locked in the vmk with 14 other people. i'm still dancing with diznygrl, Mable, Disneyholic, Pilikia, BubbasFriend, a guest and the other people that i can't remember. sorry other people. i'm horrible with names

 

[lajones81]

I got locked in! Woot woot!

Yeah!

Try to kick me out VMK! Just try it!

(I hope they don't...I put super glue on my feet just hoping and praying that I would get stuck! LOL!)

 

[VegasMonarch]

we're still here!

 

[Tishke]

were you guys able to talk while you were locked in?

 

[VegasMonarch]

no we weren't able to talk, but we were trapped dancing. it must be the torture idea. htey think if they curse us with a neverending dance spell that eventually we will leave. we must have proved them wrong, because it took a half hour before the closed sign took over.

Unfortunately that works for me.
I can't stand the idea of dancing and not talking.
I need to talk! And the "woot woot!"

So while I was eating dinner tonight, I channel hopped and stopped on TCM as the guy was intoducing the next movie....."Back To The Future"! Okay, umm, thats from 1985! I like all the old, truly classic movies that TCM usually airs, especially the musicals!
AMC lost me when they started airing commercials 5 years ago, and now they play more modern movies (but insist on calling them classics) and I thought I was okay with that since I still had TCM in all its black and white glory. Now I don't know for sure how I feel....

*sigh*

and now back to your previously scheduled thread already in progress.

What made me realize how old I was getting was when I started noticing that "rock" music I listened to in high school had become muzak'ed in mall elevators.

Randomness: so I had an overnight shift last night which was kind of rough, went home, and DW + DD3 + DD1 went to the playground while I went nearby for a much needed haircut. During the haircut, I nodded off a few times -- you know, the head rolling forward thing. I should have suspected something when the barber did not offer me the handheld mirror thing to check things out. I walked over to the playground and DD3 see me; she throws me a big smile and says...

"Daddy you look funny."

Huh?

"Your hair! It looks funny!"

I ask DW what's up, and did something bad happen? She smiles and tells me "You just look different."

Uh oh. I think I'll just avoid mirrors for the next few weeks.

Does this mean CL_Bezoar will have to change his hair, too?

As my mom always told me...it'll grow out!

Yeah, I'm sure I tried that line when I was around 6, and just before the big trip overseas to meet for the first time all the relatives in Taiwan, I got my hands on a pair of scissors and gave myself a real good haircut.

All the pictures for that family reunion... ohhhh....

Why does the sun shine on mainstreet when it is nighttime but the park have operating hours like the real park?

Things that make you go hmmmmmmmmmm?

 

[FlyThenFall]

That darn amylase!
​

After you eat...you're not supposed to play reeded instruments for like 15 minutes. Even if your brush your teeth, gargle, swish with water, etc.,etc. Why you may ask? That lovely enzyme that breaks down polysaccharides into disaccharides...also breaks down reed fibers! I believe that is off-topic enough for this thread...

(BTW, I've noticed the same thing awspinner. Maybe they'll do something cool like changing VMK at night with the opening of Rockit Mountain!)

 

[JeanJoe]

Thought of the night: Work is what you do when you can't Dis or VMK.

do you not think the thing about playing wind instruments could stem back to the terrible Twinkie incident of 1962?

I beleive a large particle of twinkie was launched from a wind instrument player's mouth along his chosen noise maker and caused some major injuries to the front row.

 

[lajones81]

I'm bored. How's that for random?

 

[*NikkiBell*]

I am double bored. lol.

 

[Beherenow]

breaks down reed fibers

Can't you just buy a new reed?

I'm thinking the sun is shining because they are afraid we will trip over benches, curbs, each other if they make it get dark.

 

[WebmasterAlex]

Especially when we have all been drinking!

 

[pumpkinfish]

Speaking of drinking...as I was knocking back a brew last night I was wondering (and even asked DH), When was the first beer bottle made? I mean, who invented it?
