Cancer Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread I made coffee cake with my daughter Saturday night. And there was still some left for breakfast Sunday morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliceTheOwl Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread . . . Never had that either. I think it's an American thang. Lewis Black has a bit about it. The gist of it is: stay away. It only SOUNDS good. And you always forget how much you don't like 'em until it's too late. I like 'em, but then, I also like Peeps.

MilkmanDan Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread I just finished Mass Effect. Yes, yes, behind the times and all, but I'm fundamentally a cheap bastard, and I figure a game that would be fun for $60 will still be fun when it's $20, so why not wait? Anyways, what a game. Without question the finest storytelling I've run into in a game EVER. For once, they actually got real voice acting, a real script, something very compelling. I was actually shouting at the TV at the end of it. "No! Whoa! No way!" I have moments where I say "why do I sit around gaming?" Mass Effect is one of the answers to that question. Compelling, powerful, intelligent, ridiculously well-done--if people who think gaming is for kids would sit down and go through this one, they'd shut up and change their damn minds. Amazing, amazing game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SatinKitty Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread I have a new Ring of Power: A beautiful 14th anniversary gift from OddHat. It's a big amethyst with blue, green and purple in the stone. It is many faceted and really sparkles. I have it on my wedding ring finger now. After I have it sized up I can wear it next to my wedding ring. I have no clue what to get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemming Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Just got back today from a couple trips. One was a trip out to Oregon for a week long photo seminar and to soak in mineral baths. Learned a lot and well worth it. Doug Beasley was the instructor. My wife sent me out to it and deserves a wife of the year award. How many wifes would send their husbands for a week at a place with clothing optional hot tubs? After the seminar, I spent three days winding back to Utah via the Oregon & California Coast, Mt. Lassen, Reno, and a little town named Rachel, Nevada. Picked up my wife and drove back to Las Vegas where we spent a couple nights at Mandalay Bay. Had a couple stellar meals at The Border Grill and RM, and for our 13th Anniversary saw "Mama Mia!" All in all a good couple weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markdoc Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread I just got back from 5 days in Paris. My wife's best friend from Berkeley days was celebrating their fifth wedding anniversary: they rented a big apartment in Paris and invited us. We had a great time. Also the week before that, I went to a big meeting on TB diagnosis in Virginia (had a 4 hour turn around time at home between flights). That's not normally a cause for celebration - but I organised this one with a friend. We got 177 people from 26 countries, everything went off well, and people were so enthusiastic that we will probably make it a recurring thing. We even made a tiny profit. Now we have our own meeting series And while in Virginia, I met Pat Robertson ... but I guess that counts as "odd" rather than "nice happy". cheers, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
