That's what they said when I was put here. I tried to fight them off with a protractor, but it didn't have radians.

After filling them with useful biology factoids?
 
Quick, get the net!
 
He, He, i have all ready locked the bomb proof door
 
Evo you need to update the security, he got away.
 
He's a shape shifter, he's still here, somewhere. Don't be fooled into unlocking the door!

That's cause you got my name wrong. I'm not a "Space Tiger" cause that would imply that I'm just a lowly tiger in space. No, I'm "SpaceTiger", the pinnacle of tiger evolution.

Methinks the, Ego alert can be turned off in this case :smile:

You're just jealous cause you aren't the pinnacle of such and such evolution. :biggrin:

I'm not very interested in cosmology, but I always enjoy reading SpaceTiger's insightful explanations (you guys shuld check 'em out :approve:). His spelling, grammar, and composition are also impeccable, which makes his posts especially readable. Now that I need to learn about waves and spectrograms, I want his help, but I don't know how to lure him from the Cosmo jungle into the Physics village. :frown:
Does anyone think that flattery and a thinly-disguised plea for attention will work? o:)

No, he's above that. We're still trying to determine his weakness.

And then it's only a hop, skip, and a jump to the Tiki Bar. Rose! You temptress! Leading him into the flypaper trap of GD..:devil:

Space Gazelles? Who knows what Space Tigers like. :confused: Or am I thinking of Space Lions?

Tigers eat wild boar - we could give him http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/03/images/050322_hogzilla3.jpg! :biggrin: Though I think it's only half wild - and very stinky by now. Oh, how silly - I've got it: Animal constellations! There's plenty of them. I say we start with Pisces and save the virgin for last.

Virgin, :rolleyes: :smile: Nothing for supper then ST.

If Virgo represents Athena (as I like to think), I don't think ST would stand a chance. And she might damage him, so that's no good.

Maybe we need a black hole or something... just to bring him within reach.

I do visit from time to time, but I've been lazy lately, sticking mostly to the astro forum. Feel free to send me a PM if there's a particular thread you want me to take a look at.

May I suggest Crunchie bars instead? :biggrin:

That's alright, I'd settle for a "virgin". o:)

Woot! (see, Evo, it did work. :-p)
Since we're already here, https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=87980. I figured out the graph, BTW. I'm currently trying to build a mental model of a sound wave.
May I suggest Crunchie bars instead? :biggrin:
Sure, if that's what you want, but I think you should reconsider. I'd never heard of Crunchie bars, so I looked them up:
Crunchie 40g
Description: Milk chocolate with golden honeycombed centre.
Ingredients: Milk, sugar, cocoa mass, cocoa butter, vegetable fat, emuslifiers, E442,E476,flavourings,Centre,sugar, glucose syrup,flavouring. may contain traces of nits, egg and soya.

They may want to update their food safety manual. But more importantly, what is a "virgin"? Is there any difference between a "virgin" and a "[/size]virgin"[/size]?

Yeah, about 20 decibels. :-p

You wouldn't believe what I had to go through to get this dang net for you, Sis! Hope it's big enough. Should be... I got it at the end of an airport runway... :biggrin: I'll need a little help setting it up, tho... :smile:

or... am I too late and he escaped already? Well, heck... I've been BUSY!11 :cry:

It's unwise to mess with the Sisterhood, little man. They have connections ('connections' meaning guns).

BTW, did my invitation to the Sisterhood get lost in the mail or something? :shy: Or is there some kind of initiation ritual? I could shave yomamma and rub him with exceptionally sting-y alcohol. :biggrin: Heck, I think I'll do that anyway.

Of course. That fattens them up so they make much better food for the nocturnally roving purple jellyfish.

I thought we already voted on your membership in the sisterhood. But, yeah, I think we need an initiation ritual, and that sounds like a good one to me. :devil:

If anything would get anyone into the sisterhood, that would do it! :biggrin:

That will get you membership to the Sisterhood for LIFE! :smile: :smile:
