Just want to express pleasure with the PF community collectively. The group is fun to hang out with and remarkably constructive--educationally and in other ways. Also appreciation to the rest of astro/cosmo slate for generously sharing your expertise and taking care of business. I'm always learning new stuff from you and many others must be as well.

Thanks everyone! I would like to echo Marcus' comments, I get so much out of my time here!

I would also like to say thanks to the *many* great members who hang out in the Physics area, such as tom.stoer and Fredrik! I owe an ongoing debt of gratitude to the mentors and admins. Especially ZapperZ, who is always lurking in the background when things start to get dicey.

Ya know, there are some people on whom pink will just not attach to or stay on and that's just physics forums. :)

Thank you, Cobalt. That's pretty much the only way that I do it. I'm capable of making up a joke, but to me that's cheating. I save it for my fiction writing.

What about volcano ceremony?

Borek, just because I'm a newcomer doesn't mean I'm going through the ring of fire.

The first time that this happened to me, back in '05, I was warned in advance and bought 12,000,000 SPF sunscreen. I've been wearing it ever since, just in case, so I'm set.

I'm not sure where you're from, but in my area the ring of fire refers to the after-effects of a shooter involving a heavy Tabasco content.
We actually have one named the "Flaming (something that I can't express, but begins with A and ends with E).

Flaming anemone?

Not to worry. The use of the volcanic ceremony is reserved for the humorous one.

Ah, excellent. I can't wait to see Danger go through it.

Alas, this is why all of the "funniest members" disappear. We forgot to throw Dave in last year.

We will need to assemble the sisters for the volcano sacrifice, Lacy, would you like to be the pusher for this ceremony?

Lacy, I have a large very pointy spit that I have been reserving for a particular bird when I can catch him unawares. If you would like to borrow that, you're welcome to use it. Much safer for you, since you can poke him into the volcano from a safer distance. :biggrin:
 
  • #81
Hmm, so many choices.
:blushing:

Might I practice on Dave first? :rolleyes: If the volcano is happy with Dave and still wants more I can try another?
If the valcano tosses Dave back at us, could be the volcano doesn't want sacrifices of the flesh anymore but sacrifices of the heart. (as in loving kindness )
If that happens Evo, what do we do?

I think practicing with Dave is the best idea. If the volcano throws him back, just keep pushing him in until the volcano gives up. Kind of like getting a child to swallow bad tasting medicine. :biggrin:

No Evo, LOL. Being a mommy too, you know a woman only has so many pushes in her. Better get me a back up and a back up for the back up... I don't think that volcano is going to take Dave or Danger. Even a volcano knows when it is out shown.
MR BERNSTIENHERADYT!? Where is my loving eyes emotionacon now!? And the crying one too?Pleeeease.

Oh, you're having an issue with the smilies not all showing up. Are you using IE as your browser?

I'm pretty sure that they did in the last few centuries, but such a thing doesn't exist any more. I could almost swear that girls these days are born pregnant, like Tribbles.

Lacey, my darling, if you feel guilty about pushing me in... don't. I have a streak of masochism, so fire doesn't bother me much.
You wouldn't want to even think of some of the things that I've done with a branding iron...

I didn't see you on-line, but I'm pretty sure you would have been as pink as the rest of us "goldies" had you been around.

Never mind all that. If I can push you all the way UP the mountain. I will push you in.

Thank you for this (math) award! I did not mean to be slow in acknowledging it, but I only just now realized I was honored, when someone emailed me to point it out. I am a bit clueless about awards, and I guess I consider the many students who ask questions here the real engine that drives this community. I feel over - recognized compared to the other nominees, in view of my reduced participation this year. But I thank you for your votes which I take as encouragement not to drop off the map in retirement. It is definitely a pleasure to be recognized for the time spent here. Bless you all for your service.
