Yup. It's Evo's one-eyed-flaming-leaf-pile-mole-hill-volcano-beating-off-penguin.

(Actually the kids just call it Whack-A-Penguin, I think.)

I'm on the nominations list. I only have two votes, so its a little early to worry about fireproofing my penguin, but it's always great just to be nominated. :cool:

Errr, um, those nominations are from last year. You'll certainly get nominated this year - 2007. Stick around.

Gosh, you're right. I just went back and looked at the date. :redface: Now you see why I don't come around much: I can't read! :smile:



So does this mean that Evo won't grab my flame resistant penguin and beat off flames?

This would be a cool place! :cool: I would hate to see this opportunity wasted o:)

KRAKATAU Indonesia 6.10°S, 105.43°E; summit elev. 813 m
http://www.volcano.si.edu/world/volcano.cfm?vnum=0602-00=

According to a news article, lava flows and incandescent rocks from Anak Krakatau traveled down the flanks during 13-14 November. Incandescent material and "smoke" were propelled hundreds of meters from the summit on 14 November. Visitors and tourists were advised not to go within a 3-km radius of the summit. The Alert Level remained at 3 (on a scale of 1-4).


Here's a nice place too! - http://erebus.nmt.edu/


Oh yeah, I almost forgot - I nominate Artman for funniest PF member.

And if I may, I nominate turbo-1 too!

They are much tastier and more deserving than me!

I just remembered, turbo has a flaming orange suit that would look so cool against a dark black lava field.

I'm really not that funny - more quirky, perhaps. I am probably one of the hottest members, though not in the teen-magazine sense, but in the sense that I eat salsas/chili relishes that you can never buy in a store. I have gotten ahead of my organic-gardening neighbor who gave us nice German and Russian garlic last year and I keep asking him if he's got enough hot sauces to keep him happy, and he keeps telling me "I'm the only one that eats this stuff!", so I guess he's OK for now. The neighbor on the far side of him and I hunt part of most every day, but unless we can live on "track stew" we are bound to go without venison.

Uh huh, planning on tying an multi-stranded carbon filament ceramic center rope around my waist so you can drag my flaming butt out of the volcano's hot mouth... :rolleyes: That doesn't sound right, does it?
