NUance Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Sometimes I have something to say that is not worthy of starting a new thread, but it doesn’t fit in any existing thread. And it's too long for a status update. I think this thread could be the place for such ramblings. So here goes. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 This past Saturday in the middle of the night I was woken up by voices outside my house. I figure it’s just high school guys, maybe junior high, out toilet papering a house or ringing doorbells. I got dressed, went down and scouted around but they were long gone by the time I got there. The next day I’m mowing the lawn, and low and behold, I find where they’d stashed an empty water bottle that had contained some sort of smelly liquid (cleaning fluid maybe?) and an empty Doritos bag. So I figure, apparently some of the neighborhood kids are sniffing stuff to get high. I guess this has been happening forever. I knew people in hs who did this sh#t. But it makes me wonder whether it is getting more common among teenagers? That is, sniffing lighter fluid, or gasoline, or cleaning fluid? I can't claim total innocence back in hs. I may have smoke a little dope now and then. But I never sniffed anything. I can’t help but think that sniffing stuff like that is not good for the ole IQ. 1 Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 I posted this in the UCLA Discussion thread. But I'm so proud I wanted to re-post it: So my wife comes in the TV room to take my two and a half year old son up to bed just now. He puts his palm out and says, NO! We're watching the game!That's my boy! --------------------------------- unrelated edit: Leaf on the Wind: LINK 5 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Why is it that on TV they can use Super Glue to connect two pieces of metal together to hang a guy over the edge of a 112 story sky scraper but when I simply want to glue the sole of my shoe back together it doesn't stay put?

Undone Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Buster, here's a plug for Shoo Goo. That stuff's legit. Quote Link to comment

Much better than superglue on shoes. Quote Link to comment

Hingle McCringleberry Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Anybody know anything about Caviar? I know its fish eggs preserved in salt, or something, but is it any good?... I've been thinking about trying it but the prices are unreal... I'm wondering if its crap, but people just say its good because something that costly MUST be good... Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I've had both expensive and inexpensive varieties of caviar. I don't like either kind, and I didn't see much difference between the "good stuff" and the mediocre stuff. I think it's more of a status symbol than anything. Like drinking really pricy wine.
