Showcasing a Life Achievement: What Would You Pick?

[Ivan Seeking]

You must really like your best friend to keep him around the house with your wife.

Got me!

 

[Kurdt]

I haven't washed my hair for over two weeks. I suppose that's some sort of achievement.

 

[binzing]

Livin' the grunge life, Kurdt?

The one thing I show off more then anything else would have to be my 13.1-inch Dobsonian "Odyssey 1" telescope.

I call her "Big Red".

 

[Kurdt]

Livin' the grunge life, Kurdt?

Not since I show it off.

My Achievement -- I got a job in Google. They send me through the wires to look for good stuff. And I got here!

Well this is a good place to find. Congrats on your job! So, you surf the web as part of your job?!? Good job, if you can get it !

Ok. I deleted the picture of me on this thread.
Survival to old age is not something to be proud of.
People do it all the time.

My greatest accomplishment was restoring my boat that was built way back in 1945.
Purchased in ~1990.
In the water within 30 days.
Ruined within 5 years.

took me 3 years to fix. Looked like a bass violin and had a beautiful sound when thumped on the belly.

Ran around for a few years and got totally trashed by a wave.

She should be back together in another 3 years.

Ok. Maybe it was an accomplishment surviving that wave without ending up like my boat.

And thank god none of my 4 friends died that day.

Wow, one of you finally signed up and decided to talk to us! Just as long as the Slurp! Spiders stay away, I guess we can put up with you.

*Did he buy it? Grabs can of Raid and aims it at the spiders.*[/size]

Moon, do you work at Google as well?

 

[binzing]

Or am I misunderstaning summat?

 

[Moonbear]

Moon, do you work at Google as well?

No, just a couple years ago, we got that "who's online" feature and suddenly we could see how many spiders were crawling around here. It may be socially acceptable in Japan, but slurping when eating is considered rude here.

 

[binzing]

As in information "slurping"?

 

[Moonbear]

As in information "slurping"?

I suppose. If you read the threads in my links, you'll see that it was more the image of giant fuzzy spiders descending upon the forum and slurping out our brains that was most disturbing. Bad choice of name!

 

[binzing]

Ok then...

Oh, and she's 20, single, and pre-med. <cough> Just in case anyone is interested.

This reminds me of the joke: "Help! Help! My daughter (the doctor) is drowning!"

 

[hypatia]
