As some of you know, I tend to put up pictures as a welcome or to shortcut a way of expressing my feelings about a post or comment. Or when I'm poking someone . . . Anyway, given I've received more comments about my pictures than I am used to lately, I was just wondering what the thought was about all the pictures I put up. ]]> General Discussion purplemo http://www.anime-planet.com/forum/general-discussion/25482-curiositys-sake-momos-pics.html No more Santa letters! http://www.anime-planet.com/forum/general-discussion/25477-no-more-santa-letters.html Thu, 19 Nov 2009 23:38:51 GMT Grinch!

Mostly out of boredom, but it's still going. Granted it's been more about comics than I had planned but the comics make for a solid constant. As I sit here and think about it I guess I could start tossing up posts that would have been the column for A-P on older anime (just posted one while I was at it).

Anyways, if you have a few minutes to spare, take a look at The Journal of a Geeky Car Guy.

Feel free to comment, good or bad, either way maybe you can get some entertainment out of it. ]]> General Discussion CMC http://www.anime-planet.com/forum/general-discussion/25474-journal-geeky-car-guy.html Best wishes for VIVISQUEEN!!! http://www.anime-planet.com/forum/general-discussion/25473-best-wishes-vivisqueen.html Thu, 19 Nov 2009 04:55:53 GMT Vivisqueen will be taking a year to volunteer abroad. Her activity on anime-planet will not "be active" due to internet constraints during her travels. She will be focusing more on her career and she also planning to be a published fantasy writer someday. Here is your chance to give her a hearty thank you.

Vivis thanks for the great reviews that have constantly brought me back to this site. I looking forward to more great reviews from you. Also, I hope to read your books someday. ]]> General Discussion dannyc http://www.anime-planet.com/forum/general-discussion/25473-best-wishes-vivisqueen.html Oh noes!

We're all going to die unless we do like this mother and ration our delicious waffles.

Quote:
"We have eight of them, and if we ration those -- maybe have half an Eggo in one sitting -- then it'll last longer," said Resciniti, who blogs about being a mother. "I told my husband that maybe I need to put them on eBay."

Think of it as mini-theses for undergraduates. (Last year, mine was performing in a play about abortions and writing up a comparative paper between it and slavery.)
Anyway, this year, I was thinking about doing it on polyphasic sleeping. The problem is, I need to come up with some reason for why I'm doing it. I was thinking about maybe the affect it has on my social interactions?
Does anyone have any ideas? (About topics, or polyphasic sleeping in general) I'd be especially interested in any stories from anyone who's happened to have tried this out, so I can draw up a sleep schedule that has a chance of maybe not being completely ridiculous. ]]> General Discussion AirCommodore http://www.anime-planet.com/forum/general-discussion/25438-polyphasic-sleep.html Wolfram|Alpha http://www.anime-planet.com/forum/general-discussion/25415-wolfram-alpha.html Tue, 10 Nov 2009 19:37:18 GMT Well, I must admit, Im rarely impressed with information sources.

Type an equation? Find a solution. Type a chemical? Get all the info you could ever want. Type a city? Again, all the info you could want.

A few basic searches which impressed me:

The Orbit of Charon
Cesaro Fractal
Conifer Trees

I even entered some useless mathematical gibberish to see what came up:
Yay for alternate forms!

My patient expired overnight. Sure I didn't expect him to make it (when you're on four pressors and need a fifth but can't cuz your valves are sclerosed shut, you know you're in trouble), but still. Five pressors . . . if you have to go that far, that means your heart basically is shut down (hell, three pressors is already on death's door). ]]> General Discussion purplemo http://www.anime-planet.com/forum/general-discussion/25386-what-ruined-your-day.html
