The Topic of Great Randomness

[crookedfrog21]

Are you saying you LIKE dead frogs? Hmmm....M, we might just have to start including Gryphon in our little death-matches....

Errrg, arrrg....

[Gryphon]

Heh heh.

I'm just now starting to read the excerpts. And err... I've always been irritated by the little things.

Excerpt (1st page):
"I'm taller," Kit said, glancing... Looks like ten days in eigt-tenths Earth gravity makes your spine stretch."

Alaalu (sp?) had eight-tenths of earth's gravity? How did that happen? Bigger planets have greater gravity. Unless I overlooked something important...

Which always seems to happen for me, seeing as how everyone likes to correct me. :P

[SURFY]

Gryphon:

Wait, wait... House boat? Too dry? Huh? I thought house boats floated on water.

Boats do float on water, hehe, BUT since I am going to Colorado its very dry on the LAND, hehe again. Have you ever heard of the fires that go on in Colorado? Well, the reason there is no fire works (stinks, in my opinon), is that since it is so dry, one of the fireworks could set the grass or ground on fire causing a tragedy. I wonder if those poppers and those noise makers are allowed though? Hmm...I suppose I could go online and find out.

About that glass in my foot, my mom is having the Dr. across the street check out my foot, thanks for the advice guys I love you all so much!! I swear, there is broken glass all over my house and in the street. Wherever I go theres broken glass. I wonder how animals that step on glass get it out of their feet?

Talkingbeast: I really like the story about the broken feet, it teaches a good lesson!

I like frogs, they are really cute, but when they get dried up by the sun they turn brown and are really gross looking. A couple of younger kids that lived by me were really upset about the frogs dieing so they had a funeral...hehehe.



Chani: I looked at the URL for your avie and it lead me to photobucket.com, I was looking at the site and signed up for it. Its a great place to keep your avies for youngwizards.

I thought you hadn't read the books, and wouldn't get the reference . (I hope some of my favourite parts of the book manage to stay in the film. Otherwise - I'll just have to read the book again. What a hardship.)

Peter, would you check your private topics? Thanks.

Done that. No problem.

[crookedfrog21]

Well, yeah, when they die and get all dried and stuff, then yeah, they are gross, but really. It is silly to hate frogs BEFORE they die.

Wait, what else has Mike Newell directed?

[drea]

If you go back to my previous post regarding the new director, there's a link that goes to a list of everything he's done. IMDB rules!

HI! Dead frogs are all yucky and stuff, but they're cool!!! My brother can't wait till he's in seventht grade so he can dissect one, but that's in, like, two years!

Xylemicarious! That is the coolest word ever! And I can spell it!!! AND!!! I can pronounce it very easily! But xylemi? Your avie still scares me, it's cool(in an evil, posessed doll-like kinda way), but it's still scary.

I LIKE SQUIRRLS! THAY ARE SO CUTE!!!! In science today,(aug, school) we were talking about birds, and this silly/stupid kid, Zach, asked if the reason that birds could could land on telephone wires was because they have hollow bones, and the subject of animals on telephone wires came up and everyone was sharing stories about animals they've seen be electrocuted by the wires. It was THE dumbest thing EVER!

sigh* my sister is up in her room crying cause she got in trouble cause she got mad and threw the phone down the stairs. So silly. School is driveing me nuts! I have NO idea WHY I keep talking about it, but I'm going crazy! I hope my history and language arts teachers fall into a hole full of lava and rabid fireproof chipmunks!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! *ahem* Okay then.

Wow. I didn't know I was CAPABLE of typing posts this long. Cool.

HAHA!!!! I will make it longer as I have just rememered something that I forgot in the rush of random splooshes! I LOVE TO SLEEP!!!!!! SLEEP IS SOOOOOOO COOL!!!! OH!!! I HAVE SOMETHING ELSE TO SAY BUT UMMM I FORGOT IT... Oh I hate it when I forget things like this. Oh well.

[Agent M]

Disecting is fun.... Aren't you almost done with school yet BIW?? When did you start...? How do you pronounce Xylemicarious?

[nitafan211]

Same question as Surfy, for me. I tried to write a post 20 miniuts ago and my laptop, (my dad's acctualy) and it started to go weird on me. I dissected a frog this year. It was soooo cool.

The Internet Movie DataBase (its FAQ). Use at your own risk. I mean, COMPLETELY unreliable people add data to that thing. (One great way to give back to the internet movie-loving community is if you see an error or hole in the database--fix it yourself!)

I remember when it was just a "what actress would you like to bonk?" thread on rec.arts.movies...

Anyways, I'm really happy about Mike Newell being lined up for the next Harry Potter because 1) he's a Brit. It's the first time a Brit will be directing a Harry Potter. and 2) I loved Into the West.

[BelieverInWizardry]

M, I think Xylemicarious is pronounced
zle mi car ee us. The 'xy' sounds like a 'z' like in the word xylophone. At least I think that's how you pronounce it. Ask Xylemi.

Oh, and, I get off school next Monday. It sucks. I started in September, on the third I think.

[drea]

Wow. Most places around here start the day after labor day, get two weeks off in december, and then a week off in April or May, and then get out last Thursday. It's a good length of time.

Oh, her . I thought for a moment you meant the person who wrote this bio of Diane Duane.

Oh yeah! Yay, a British director!

Surfy: No, IMDB doesn't have actual movies online, just lists. Want to know who starred in the 1927 Ben-Hur? Trying to remember what films Sam Neill has done apart from Jurassic Park? (I sound like a commercial break here!) Well, that's the sort of lists it has. Words on a screen - probably no danger of viruses from it. You could try this list too.

[BelieverInWizardry]

I FINALLY SORTED MY BRAINS OUT AND GOT A NEW AVIE!!!!! Yea, its kinda big, but I'm gonna get a better one. I SHOULD GET ONE WITH MY BROTHER IN IT. Just joking! That would be a bad idea anyway. Everyone would die of fright! lol! I'm happy. No clue why but I am. I'm gona go roleplay now.

[BelieverInWizardry]

OK!! I HAVE A DIFFERENT AVIE NOW!!!! A PRETTY ONE!!!!! Oh, wait. I never started roleplaying. I need to go do that now before my mom yells at me...oops, too late.
