Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere's the thread!

Not sure what the Random thread is all about? Well, here's the answer to all your questions.

It's basically a restaurant. That serves breaststicks. And lots of cute fruit and veggies. And is patronized by a HO. And Tucker Carlson. Vin Diesel, too. Lots of race car drivers eat here, as well. We're very well respected by the Amish... one girl in particular is here almost all the time.

The food is great if you're low on iron. It's not on the menu, but you can ask about the special secret garlic cure home recipe. One of the hostesses often makes weather predictions, but she's not always around. I think she has another job with the government. Or a government. Something like that. One of the other hostesses says "Bitch, please," a lot, but she's joking... don't take it personally.

Forget anything you've heard about the girl who died here from arsenic poisoning. That was a long time ago, and she's still alive, anyway... just busy so she doesn't come in as much. Besides, a little arsenic adds a lot of flavor to just about any dish.

Pretty flowers by the entrance, hey? Lilis, they are. Beautiful. And the music is totally hopping... we have our very own DJ. Looks a little like Brad Pitt.

I guess that's pretty much all you need to know. I'm usually in the corner booth over there drinking a nice glass of wine. You're welcome to join me, anytime. We're open 24/7.



Congratulations to everyone who made Part 4 such a kickass thread!!!

And thank you to the ever generous, intelligent, lovely, and kind Nichole, who let me start the thread even though she won the last one. 🙂
 
I wish the Air Force had an MD/Pilot program. It would redefine the word "flight surgeon." 😀 I would seriously want to go into that program.
 
Doesn't specifically say. This thought was sparked by a post from someone who has them on their hands and now is worried about getting into med school.

Seriously, in a professional setting visible tattoos seem pretty against the rules. Are people that short sighted to not realize that it could affect their future career and advancement?

My suggestion is for them to paint their hands. Kinda like makeup on a girl's face to cover anything up. It might not look that real, but it's better than nothing I suppose...
 
Hahaha not unless their completely tattooed up like that guy on prison break....or they'll have to wear long's sleeves and gloves in the middle of summer.

I don't think I'll ever get a tattoo. There's nothing I want permanently on me that I think will look good.

As long as it doesn't look freakish, I think they'll be fine.
 
I like those henna tattoo on the palm....but I think it's symbolic of something, right? Like before an Indian girl gets married or something.....ok I could be completely off.

You are dead center on target. it is used to decorate a woman's hands and arms and legs and feet for her wedding ceremony. There is a ceremony for putting it on the arms and legs to called the Mehndi ceremony.

Mehndi is the real word for henna.


I too hate when Henna starts to fade. It looks nice if it comes out really really dark, otherwise it just looks horrible.

As per getting Mehndi put on you, you can get that done where ever there is an Indian store or boutique near you. I live in Tampa and there are all sorts of places which will do it for you if you don't know how to do it yourself.

Me neither....though I've contemplated getting one a while back. I think it's a phase for most people.

That was the suggestion for short term, but its not a long term solution.
Call me old fashioned, but not something I would do.

Yeah definitely think those hand henna tattoos are nice.

The only thing I would consider would be a tattoo of a spine and ribs over my spine and ribs on my back. That's only SLIGHTLY considering, but of course I would never pay for something like this. I rather buy cars.
 

For me, I wasn't too worried. It wasn't really only because I felt prepared, it was mostly because I looked at it as another final exam in school. I never freaked out about it. Hey, at least for you, you always can keep in mind you can retake if you score isn't what you want. I was taking a lot of vacation time in the weeks before so I felt good and rested for the test. Plus, I got 7 hours of sleep the night before, which is something you need.

I've seen ladies tattooed their eyebrows or even tattoo a red lining around their lips. I might go for the eyebrow thing......I hate having to shape mine 😡

I have a feeling that looks very fake. I've seen it once on tv, along with the lips being recolored, bleh...

You must have some photographic memory or something...no idea how in the heck you memorized the EK books....or how you can even read over the damn things in like 2 days.

The eyebrow tattoo is ok....as long as it's done right....the lip liner one though is 👎 . It means you can never go out w/o lipstick....which can really suck.

Like I said:

1) No job
2) No school
3) No wife
4) No kids

Any combo of these will add hours on study time. Lucky me. 😀
 
So weird, lol.

I thin it's 2010 that all TV signals have to be broadcast in HD. So this antenna is ready for that. If you won't buy an HDTV by that time, you probably have to get some kind of converter that will change the HD signal to regular.
 
I really want to start reading more instead of watching tv....it'll be better for me for verbal....What are good and entertaining books....I think someone mentioned "The House of God" on the pre-allo forum.

I don't think it would help much since they're aren't any questions. I know Beary and one of my friends are really into The Dark Tower series by Stephen King.

Well just to get more in the mode of reading really.
 
anyone own an external hard drive. I think I need one but they seem like a bit of a rip off
