Pariah Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Wow, I've been gone a while. By the way, 't.i.d.' does mean 'three times a day'. I remember that from a medical terminology class I subbed for years ago. No idea on T-dot, though. Also, I believe "Six Easy Pieces" is under 300 pages.

Cancer Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Ospreys aren't really aquatic, I don't think, because they neither live in the water nor spend any amount of time swimming in it. They live around all types of bodies of water, though. Not sure what the proper adjective for that situation is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 As opposed to Gila monsters, which tend to be water-dissociated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 They don't seem to be that bad-tempered, actually. No more so than a number of lizards, and definitely less so that most crocodilians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueCloud2k2 Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 If it's not one thing its another. Had a cold snap (no snow this time, thankfully) but had a pipe freeze and bust. Again. Since it thawed enough to hear the water on a Friday night, it is now Monday Night/Tuesday Morning and plumber still hasn't gotten back to us. On top of that, tripped on the cat and rolled my ankle. So I am now on my second day of having a sprained ankle and missing work in the process. Every time I see the little brat-cat I call her an assassin. My punishment for naming her "Angel" when she was a kitten, I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 I said back in grad school, "Badness comes in waves."

BlueCloud2k2 Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Quiet, nerd-boy. Or I sic the mini-lop on you. I'll tell him you're the one who made his Baywatch VHS's obsolete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Is the mini-lop even around anymore? Granted, I haven't read Sluggy Freelance in years ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueCloud2k2 Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Yeah he's back, and it turns out he was the God of Strength back before... Ago - that's how Santa and the rest of the Holiday Avatars knew him (I think the rest of the Gods from... Ago... morphed into the holiday Avatars (or at least fostered them).

Cancer Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Quiet, nerd-boy. Or I sic the mini-lop on you. I'll tell him you're the one who made his Baywatch VHS's obsolete. I confess I don't get the reference at all, and googling for mini-top just shows skimpy clothing for women. EDIT: gah, I need new glasses; I saw "top" instead of "lop". Though searching for lop just shows rabbits, not much of an improvement. Edited January 28, 2014 by Cancer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
