Bonus points for listening to music naked.

I can not do it anymore since friends moved in. It is not worth the trouble with putting on pants every time I want to go to kitchen or bathroom...

Date went surprisingly well. She's into history and old books, is a big fan of Jawbreaker, and is way more attractive than I deserve.

Maybe this will work out, or maybe she's just planning on laying eggs in my chest cavity. Not sure which is more probable.

you see, if you had brought me with you, I could have told you if she was planning to lay eggs in your chest cavity, cuz that's what wingmen do. Not that I would have interrupted the date or anything. I mean...that might be your thing.

Speaking of, I just finished watching The Thing. It explains a lot of white wolf art and game mechanics.

I also look forward to drawing all of your blood and testing it because I don't know how many of you are who you say you are.

I do not recommend drawing all of my blood as I need at least 60% of my blood volume to survive.

Wait, this is for a necklace chain? I am intrigued and confused. I do jewelry making as a hobby, with a lot of wire work as part of that. And I've never encountered silicone as a chain component before. Usually when a chain breaks you just have to replace a jump ring. Is it the clasp or the pendant that is made of unusual material? I'm really quite curious.

Good luck getting my blood, as you can see I've taken precautions to prevent that, I might need to rethink my methods in the future however.

technically it's not a chain, that's just what i'm accustomed to calling it.

what it actually is is a silicone string/wire thing with lots of tiny little orange beads strung on it, and it is fastened by little metal fasteners on either end that screw into each other. the string broke right off of one of the fasteners. I think some of the remains of the silicon is in the hole in the back of the fastener where the silicone string was inserted during manufacture.

the chain/necklace whatever is important only to hold up my pendant. I wouldn't mind so much if i could find something else to string my pendant, but I know from experience that they don't even sell string here.

Went to Renn yesterday. Mostly a fun time. The highlights include Tartanic bringing a couple of guys in full Knights Templar costumes on stage to play tambourine for them and of course the weird show from Zoltan the Adequate.
Unfortunately it was the day for losing things. My husband accidentally dropped his gauntlets in the parking lot, and I lost a one of a kind bracelet. It slipped off my wrist at some point during the day. I can only guess that it must have caught on my sleeve and loosened and then fallen off. :(

Ah. Well that explains it. Interesting string. I have never seen one like that. It sounds pretty cool.

If you can find either a hardware store or a craft store, you'll be spoiled for choices as far as string goes. Or a sporting goods store. Fishing line makes excellent necklace string.
Good luck with your search and thanks for assuaging my curiosity. :)

Thanks!

I don't even know how it broke. I went to bed wearing it (as I always do) and then this morning I was just watching a youtube video and looked down to see that the string was broken and beads and stuff were falling off.

I'm a real light sleeper, Freehold.

Childs in the end:
Supposedly was still a human at the end. He had an earring in the final scene, which should be discarded during the copying process...

In the book:
MacReady starts to teach Childs how to play chess.

The book is novelization based on earlier version of the script and contains a few differences, including at least one sequence that wasn't included in the final script or was cut away.

"The Thing" is one of my all time favorite movies. And the mastery of it can be seen in that it aged reasonably well.

Picked up a copy of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (original Xbox) on a lark, and now I'm completely hooked. It's like Star Wars Mass Effect, which is pretty damn close to perfection in my book.

hmm if we're going to be doing historically authentic vikings (which is without question because honestly horned helms and ragged pelt tunics and so forth are boring and way overdone) then we'll have to do historically authentic pirates and ninjas as well...

Just catching up and saw this.

So sorry to hear Treppa, but I would say that qualifies as a 'good' reason, yes.

Just not a happy one. ;/

Lol,

I have both an original Xbox and a 360, (but refuse to be sucked into the madness that is One)

AND,... GOG.com just added a LOT of Star Wars titles into their offerings fairly recently, including almost ALL of the original XBox and PC games.

Yeah, I spent a few dollars getting one collection. (It was on sale! and there were a lot of games in the package!) :P

Yep, seconding the fishing line suggestion, and it's usually much stronger than string. Just get some plain old non-braided monofilament or nylon line, making sure the test/diameter is thin enough to string through the beads (fishing line can get pretty thick in higher strengths). And conventional knots usually don't work, so use a hangman's knot or a clinch knot.

Just need to survive through second show of the day.
THEN I can kiss this show good bye, go home and play SWTOR online with my old college buddies.

I have t-shirts from theater shows in college that are 20 years old. :(


Now I find myself inspired to raid my closets for my oldest outfit...
Which turns out to be a hand me down formal dress that clearly belongs in the late 70's or early 80's, not sure which of my relatives owned it first but I think I am not going to wear it, I am pretty sure I never have.

Same. The only XBOne game that even remotely interested me (DA:I) had a 360 port (a very buggy one, but a port nonetheless).

I *just* threw out my "Class of '85 10-year-reunion" shirts, so those were almost exactly 20.

I have a few of my old punk shirts from the early '80s in storage, but that doesn't count because I don't wear them.

My hiking boots are from circa 1985, when I was clambering over some talus and a sharp edge went right through 1/8" of leather and nearly took a toe, so I got some even heavier-duty boots.

Oh, but I *did* just put Impus Minor in my infamous "scum coat" -- an army surplus coat from 1985. So my son has worn clothes more than twice his age.

EDIT: Oooh! Thanks, Rawr! I am within some trivial decimal points of being precisely thrice Cr500Cricket's age. (I'm 48, but my birthday's in June so we're off by a couple of months...)

Mine oldest T-shirts from early nineties gave up their life last year and this. Now, the oldest things I have will probably be jeans jacket (which might be nearly or even over twenty) and a sweater or two.

EDIT: I mean things that I actually wear. I am pretty sure my closet contains older clothing...


Oh sure make it a requirement that I have to wear it! I guess my oldest item I still wear is my GenCon 2000 tshirt which is big and comfy and I wear it to bed cause it's pretty ratty now.

You haven't looked at the who is the oldest on the forums thread then... There were people that were in their late fifties and some in their sixties there. And it was a few years ago.
