Are you sure you weren't meant to find it? Did it have a name on it?:rolleyes:

That's okay, I'm still trying to find someone will to teach me to drive stick.
Well, the Runner does have that long-throw Hurst pistol-grip shifter (nice big ridges). :cool:

I'm so disappointed. I thought I had taught you better than that. :frown:

It used to be you could just rent a car with a manual transmission, but nowadays, all the rentals are automatics, otherwise I'd just rent a car and teach myself. It can't be all that hard, just need to do it.

It'll have to wait until tomorrow, assuming it's a format I can open at all. I'm on dial-up right now, and don't feel like waiting for it.

its in a flash format and you need headphones or speakers for that (preferrably with a lot of bass)

you can open it with any browser, provided you have the plugin - which technically you should. its only 2.7 megs, and its only sound :D

I love Enigma! He let me touch his head! Actually I wanted to give him a nuggie, but thought that might be pushing it too far.

Yeah yeah, I can hear the lesson now:

cronxeh - Okay Moonbear let's get started.

Moonbear - But shouldn't we be in a car?

cronxeh - Nah, we'll start here on my couch.

Moonbear - If you say so cronxeh, you're so sweet to...<zip>...What are you doing?

cronxeh - Preparing the stick.

Moonbear - Why did you store the shifter there in that zippered holder? (edited this line because I noticed it sounded REALLY bad the way it was!)

cronxeh - To keep it warm. It works better if it's warm. Now you grab the stick.

Moonbear - Oh. I thought shifting would be hard, but not with you teaching me. It's not hard at all!

cronxeh - Uh...let's just get on with the lesson.

Moonbear - I thought the shift lever would be longer.

cronxeh - This is just a three speed.

Moonbear - I want to drive a big rig.

cronxeh - Look, do you want to learn or not?!

Moonbear - Yeah. I'm sorry.

cronxeh - Never mind. I'm not in the mood any more. The lesson is over. I'm putting the shifter away in it's case. <zip>. I'm going over to the cancer clinic and see if anyone over there wants to learn to drive a stick.


Or something like that. (Just kidding cronxeh and Moonbear.) :biggrin:

Hey, how'd you get that picture of my desk? Actually, it's when I can see the top of the desk that I have the most difficult finding things. Something about everything being hidden away in file cabinets and drawers that makes it difficult to find them when I need them. It's much easier to keep everything within reach on my desk.

Okay, my desk isn't quite as bad as the one in the cartoon, but when I was in grad school, one of the other grad students did have a desk that looked like that. We moved all the other desks away from hers because we were afraid we might lose someone in the avalanche if a breeze blew through the office the wrong way.

And you think you can just pop in here with neither a swish, swash or swoosh as an excuse for your absence?
The rudeness of it..

me eat lunch now.
 
  • #2,971
A crunch, gobble or even just a burp might have helped, but no , you just sit there with your lunch all by your self, unwilling to share anything.
I'm not mollified in the least.
 
  • #2,972
I would never share! MMmmmm, soo much pizza left, not enough energy to eat it all.
 
  • #2,973
Pizza for LUNCH??
What sort of madness is this?
As everyone else, I like a cold slice of left-over pizza for breakfast, but eating pizza in the middle of the day?

Okay, so I did push the envelope so hard it ended up across the country. But it was just so tempting. :devil: :redface: I couldn't help it. :cry:

That's because it's not a stupid question thread, it's a stupid quetion thread. Get it right! No wonder you were confused. :smile:

So guess what I almost said today? *waits for awhile, but no reply* I almost said "Meh!" Okay, I am going to do some cooking now...No, no more posts for awhile! But like Arnold says: "I'll be back."
 
  • #2,982
You know what? When I'm reading one thing and kind of tired but getting into it and then I pick something else and read that instead. The context of the first thing I was reading is still in my head and it makes it all unusual.

That's okay, I've caught myself nearly saying "LOL" out loud a few times when someone says something funny. :redface:

That is either the best or worst advertisement I've ever seen. One of the funniest certainly.

Okay, I'm back "like a bad dream" -- what's goin' on? Hmm, maybe I should start some vicious rumors (about myself, of course). :-p

Two days ago, I would have believed you, but today it was back to damp and chilly. I have yet to find a research project that will give me an excuse to spend the winters in the tropics. :cool:

Sounds a lot like the weather in my neck of the woods. 70F this weekend and it was snowing last night and early this morning.

Come to think of it, you do remind me of a biology teacher I had once. That was a fun class.

Well, without knowing what neck of the woods you're in, I can still guess you're further north than I am. It was chilly today, but none of that nasty white stuff, thank goodness!

Me no eat now--done.

My back patio door is open (nearly 10:00 pm). Almost too warm to have it open right now. It was 92 degrees today, and it's supposed to be 94 degrees tomorrow.

Could you do me a tiny favor? Get a BIG[/size] fan and set it outside and aim it northeast. Please! :biggrin: I had to turn the heat back on today.

We had such beautiful, perfect weather in L.A. today. The kind of day that makes you feel glad to be alive. I sat outside in the sunshine today and ate a ripe tangerine from my neighbor's tree, licking the sticky, sweet juice off my wrist, not caring who looked at me.
Tonight it's nice, too. I'll open my window now and let the gentle, cool breeze of honeysuckle drift through while I sleep.
