3. "The festival of ______"

I know! I have a friend that instead of saying 'birthday', refers to anyone's b'day as "The festival of _____" <==== insert name here.

Celebrations are not confined to just your actual birthday.
What, with going to a comedy club, yum cha, out to dinner etc "the festival of wish-ga" went for three weeks this year.

\\\\\\\"an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of the cure\\\\\\\"

Be careful not to get your tongue stuck to an ice cream after burning it on a hot drink (burning your throat hurts too if you drink too fast!). And yes it can happen. I managed it with the ice creams they gave us on the qantas flight


Little gray ones with big green eyes actually


1.Punching concrete block walls
2. Punching metal bathroom stall
3. Going to the gym and turning the music up.

Top three ways to deal with those annoying people on the street that try and hand you papers, or the ones in the mall that want you to try their stupid products.

^_^

hmmm. tuff one i dont venture into malls much but heres the jist of it!

1. cross my eyes and give tehma retarded look (freaks them out)
2. look at the ma nd snarl then say something snotty (usually they recoil or retreat)
3. simply ignore and walk past, if they are assertive then i push tehn out of the way, find a gap to walk through, or simply tell them off...

top three ways of dealing with stupid drivers arround you?

\\\\\\\"an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of the cure\\\\\\\"

Depends on what they're doing that's stupid...

1. If they're in the fast lane and going exactly the same speed as the person next to them in the slow lane (on a two-lane highway), I have no qualms about being a tailgater. That's the only situation where I'll get close to the back of a moving car... I normally keep my distance...

2. If they're doing 20-30mph under the limit while entering the freeway, they usually either get a horn or a finger. They put on-ramps there so you have time to accelerate so you're going the same speed as the rest of the drivers when you enter the freeway. Likewise, off-ramps are there so you can slow down while you're ON them, not 50' before you get to them.

3. If someone is doing something really stupid (to the point where I can't avoid hitting them or something else by slamming on the brakes or veering out of their way), I'll 'tactically maneuver ' (aka 'drift' or 'powerslide') around them. I've only had to do that twice, though. Once on Christmas when it was really icy and someone slid into oncoming traffic, and once when someone was going the wrong way on a freeway on-ramp.

Top 3 ways to save gas?

Oh that's easy

1. Buy a prius, buy a prius buy a prius (hey if the ev-1 was still around I'd have gotten that too! but they were all murdered)


2. decide it's really not all that important to go get X until you have other trips to do.

3. Don't rent a chevy uplander to drive 14,000+ miles in a few months time. And if you do rent a chevy, write all sorts of graffiti about how much you love priii and miss your prius.

Top three things to do when you're really bored and have no where to sit or nothing (no ipod no computer no books! )to do, and you're really tired and exhausted from walking.

^_^

Really nothing:
3. try to remember the words of an old hymn or girl scout song
2. take a nap
1. replay in my head the last few conversations I've had with friends

Just no computer, ipod, or books:
3. Cross stitch
2. Crochet
1. Write a short story

Top 3 ways to avoid clutter

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

wish you're too nice

Clutter! I'm getting better at this! (errr containing it not making it )

1. go over surfaces that collect clutter every day, find out what can be put away and deal with it before it gets too much. For us it's the kitchen island (where adam dumps the mail) and the dining room table (where I dump stuff)

2. Get nice boxes/baskets to contain stuff that isn't really clutter but looks like it (ie remotes we've got three, and two wii controllers)

3. Reduce the knickknacks you have on things like bookshelves, kitchen counters, ect. Pick a 2-3 to display then rotate them once a month. They're all important to have but having them all out just makes stuff cluttered!!! (not to mention takes away focus from what you want people seeing!)


And to check if somethings cluttered or not, take a photo (if you're using digital obviously) then look at the pic, closely.

Top three things you've put off buying cause you just cant justify it

Course I also got to spend around $100 on flowers, plants and lovely pots...

Top three most hated chores!

Floors (inherited a steam cleaner for hard floors. Love it. Goodbye to lugging buckets of hot water. I hate it less now but still not my favourite weekly chore)

Bathroom (Again! only once per week & takes 2 seconds. Why do I hate it?)

Washing the car (back in the days we were allowed to do this in Sydney/NSW)

Top three inventors/scientists

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

Ok I'll try

George Melie essentially invented movies. Up till he did A Trip to The Moon]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbGd_240ynk&feature=related[/link] in 1902 no one really thought to put a story on film. It was all trains coming in and out of stations, people at work and the like. Sadly his film was stolen by Edison (from what I remember?!) when he came to the US and he never ever earned any money for it. He was however given props by the smashing pumpkins when they redid his film in [link=Tonight, Tonight

George Washinton Carver mmmmmm peanut butteerrrrrr

Louis Daguerre If you've never seen one, they're amazing!

I'm forgetting now what we have and havent done , can we get a

Top Three Comfort Foods?

^_^

Oh yeah, deserves its own THREAD!!!

I will give others a chance to have a go.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

1) Mashed potatoes - REAL ones, made by completely smooshing actual potatoes. No lumps so it could theoretically be classed as a dessert food IMO

2) Bounty Bars - for comfort food on the go (not sure if they are international, but essentially soft coconut covered in milk chocolate, split into 2 separate bars so you can feel piggy without actually being piggy)

3) Cadbury Dairy Milk Family Block - I don't care that it is totally dull chocolate, I like that you can eat half a block without so much as blinking. Tis good!

Top three DOH! moments. (I thought of this because I locked myself out recently)


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

OOh i will do this one.
#1 Returning home from a show with 10 emperor scorpions and dropping the polybox on the floor..scorpions scurried under the floor board. Mum still dosnt know.

#2 Tripping over the cord of my TV and knocking it off and breaking it.

#3 Trying to fix said broken TV without turning the power off and getting thrown across the room by the electric like a judo fighter.

Top 3 things to do with Food...

1. Eat it, of course.

2. Throw it at people.

3. Put it in Mez's broken TV.

Top 3 ways you've been zapped by electricity (if you haven't been zapped 3 times, then top 3 times you've been injured/hurt/nearly injured/close calls/etc)?

"Mum still dosnt know."

but the whole internets does now !


1.Umm flicking on a lightswitch that didn't have the cover on it yet and missing the switch thereby sticking my finger in the box instead

2.Sticking my finger in a light bulb socket trying to fix it (just happened a few days ago )

3. Recent close call was managing to pour water all over the power strips for all our tanks upon returning from the US in june and finding the tanks half empty. Do not do aquarium work on a jet lag/exhaustion over caffeinated combo.


Top three projects you'd work on if you had the time.

^_^

That ain't too bad, Babel. I've been hit by 750VAC PP @ 10A, 600VAC PP @ 10A, and 400VAC PP @ 20A, and 240VAC RMS @ 60A once each, and 120VAC RMS @ 10-40A a good number of times. (Do note that current available doesn't necessarily equal current used... otherwise I'd be a burnt slab of meat 6' underground at the moment.) If you don't know what any of that electrical jibberish means, ask Adam... he's an electrical engineer, right? From all of those zaps, I've got a few electrical burns and fried nerves. I've gone weeks without feeling in my upper body and arms, and had no feeling in my two index fingers for over 8 months. The only time I can feel sensation in my index fingers now is when they're subjected to pain (slamming in doors, getting bitten, hitting with hammers, etc)... I have no 'normal' sense of feeling in them. I think I really need to stop playing with step-up transformers, high wattage class 4 lasers, and large amounts of electricity in general o.O

Anyway, to 3 projects I'd work on if I had time, money, and electricity-proof appendages...

1. 1100w class 4 CO2 laser

2. Converting my '89 Mazda MX-6 to a Hydrogen/Gas hybrid (not dealing with more than 12VDC@20A for electrolysis in this project... just have to worry about more hydrogen explosions...)

3. Building a 2.2L 4 cyl, 5 speed, rear-engine, RWD go kart... got most of the parts... just need the aluminum tubing for the chassis and roll cage...

Worst 3 injuries you've had?

1. sprained ankle (wasn't even doing anything fun at the time, was at work!)

2. Native animal bite that went septic

3. trapped clothing in an electric can opener (technically wasn't injury to my body)

No broken bones, or stitches. Never been on crutches or anything. I'm bor-ing.

Top three ways to get rid of algae from decor items in your tank (other than switching off the light!)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

1. Mechanical removal - depending on the type of algae - rubbing with fingers, pulling off with fingers, or scrubbing with something scrubby.

2. Ottos! (the four I have in my 10-gallon guppy tank just about have the green algae infestation whooped )

3. Reducing factors that help algae grow (light, nutrients, etc.)

Top 3 Zoos you have been to.

><>

meant to answer the algae one yesterday, got caught up in super exciting house work :
but I'll pop in some feedback too.

It depends on the type of algae of course. Black brush algae, I did good with leaving the lights off for a few days, plants did ok being low light.

Brown diatom, water changes, and ottos/snails.

BGA, tree stump remover (potassium nitrate) helped then failed; water changes, helped then failed; manual removal, helped than failed; black out for week+, helped then failed; antibiotics as last resort...worked.

Top three zoos?
Can't remember the name, but there was one down in Melbourne Adam and I went to with Lindy and her boys. That was fun cause they had open areas for the native specieas so you could get real close

Currumbin wildlife sanctuary was pretty cool for the same reason, could get very very close to the koalas (of course they had cuddle photos for a fee)

National Zoo, DC. While not that great, and one of the older zoos in the US (they were shut down for a bit because of animal deaths and small enclosures) it's free, and very open to the public. It's a great place just to walk through, or as many in the district were doing when I was there, jog through! They have a variety of the traditional zoo animals and a pretty neat (small) aquarium exhibit as well.


Keeping to the same theme, top three aquariums you've visited, or top three displays in aquariums.

^_^

hmm i havent bben to many aquariums, but i have been ot a large one thats local. its called the Aquarium of the pacific. they have an awesome kelp forest exhibit/tank...

i have also seen an amazing freshwater tank that was designed as a series of streams ponds, and a larger tank to house local or fairly local bass, trout, catfish, and others it was pretty cool.

another amazing exhibit was at the aquarium of the pacific and it was a jelly fish series, talk about the epitome of amazing! you NEED to check it out!!!!

hmmm... i would like to hear some one else's responses to this same "TOP THREE" question. so:

Top three favorite aquariums or aquarium exhibits/tanks?

\\\\\\\"an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of the cure\\\\\\\"

Could be another whole thread...

1. Monterey Bay Aquarium - one of the best out there, great temporary exhibits, awesome permanent ones.

2. California Academy of Sciences - currently moving/being re-vamped, lots of good freshwater fish, etc. I have actually met one of the aquarists from there.

3. Aquarium of the Bay - high admission, but a nice aquarium, massive exhibits that you go under on a conveyor belt.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

Ohh, my weak spot!

1) LFS crawls with the betta group - usually McDonalds at Bexley or Auburn for lunch, followed by Krispy Kreme, and then topped off by Red Rooster or Maccas for dinner. LFS days are very naughty days.

2)On the way to TAFE - I'm always running late and there is a Maccas on the way. Kinda turned off now, Double Beef & Bacon shouldn't be greasy all over.

2) When I stay up late working on assignments. I keep beef jerky and bhuja mix in my stationery drawer

Top 3 things you obsessively clean

3 Things you don't obsessively clean but probably should?

1. My room
2. My bird's cage (it's really in need of a good bleaching)
3. Apparently the break room kitchen at work (I spent 15 minutes after my lunch break cleaning up dish soap that spilled, and apparently the job I did wasn't good enough for someone who both called over the radio to ask what it was and then to say "well whoever spilled it should have cleaned it up" and then wrote a note above the sink saying "If you spill something slippery you need to clean it up because it is a slip/fall hazard. We're all *adults*." (with lots of underlines sprinkled throughout the note))
