Day 281 - RAAAAAHK Zan!, Cunning Crocodilian Camouflage, A French Silk Pie From A Sow's Sweat, What's The Hemisphere Like Up There?, Fear Wears A Shell, and "That's Mighty White Of You, God"

Mr. Brown
Crap! I got Roxanne stuck in my head again.
LOL
It's an OK beat to have in the head though.
Its funny when people try to sing that song.
Its linked to Sting's voice so much that nobody else can really sing it well.
9:19 AM Mr. Blue
I hate that song
9:27 AM Mr. Silver
"RAAAAHK zan!  You don't have to put on theee red tights!”
“RAAHK zan!  You don't have to put on theee head lice!"
"I love you since I do ya...my wooden cockatoo yeah!"
"Smell you once, I won't smell you again...it's a bouquet!"
9:28 AM Mr. Blue
What's with his fake Jamaican accent too?
9:40 AM Mr. Silver
I'm rather hoping these lyrics F up your earworm, Mr. Brown...plus I like to filk lyrics.
9:46 AM Mr. Blue
I can't even hear the verses in my head, just the annoying chorus.
9:47 AM Mr. Blue
Have you ever heard the similarities between Buffalo Soldier and the Banana Splits Song?
“tra la la, tra la-a la, tra la la la la la-la la”
9:48 AM Mr. Silver
Clearly both a rip-off of “Deck the Halls”.
10:00 AM Mr. Blue
Hehe



Mr. Brown
10:30 AM Mr. Silver
"(pictured) Three crocodiles disguised as sticks basking on harmless log."
10:33 AM Mr. Blue
It only took 'em 55 million years to learn the trick.
10:56 AM Mr. Brown
Yeah. LOL



Mr. Mustard
A favorite saying of Rizzo — "Pigs get fat; hogs get slaughtered" — and added they shouldn't be hogs.
2:58 PM Mr. Silver
Which Rizzo?
2:59 PM Mr. Mustard
Bell CA former city manager.
2:59 PM Mr. Silver
Ah.
Mr. Mustard
3:03 PM Mr. Silver
Well...apparently Rizzo was just reclassified as a hog.
3:04 PM Mr. Mustard
Deep roasted, at that.
3:06 PM Mr. Silver
She marinated in her own juices during the sentencing.
3:06 PM Mr. Mustard
Brings to mind another saying: 'Sweating like a Pig!'
3:07 PM Mr. Silver
Sweating like a Rizzo!
3:20 PM Mr. Silver
Long Rizzo
3:18 PM Mr. Mustard
Rizzo-to with mushrooms.
3:19 PM Mr. Silver
Short Ribzzo.



Mr. Brown
Anybody else feeling fluctuations in gravity?
1:51 PM Mr. Amethyst
Yes.
I feel like I can jump 2 inches higher.
(Sarcasm)
1:51 PM Mr. Silver
2 inches? Then we're all dead.
2:00 PM Mr. Silver
"Africa flung free from planet Earth.  Yes, you heard me.  Africa.  Full details at 11."
2:01 PM Mr. Brown
Its just, sometimes if I stand really still, I start swaying and it feels like I’m feeling the earth moving.
2:01 PM Mr. Blue
“In other news, (town) man succumbs to senility."
2:01 PM Mr. Silver
(touches nose)
I always wonder if I'm counted as always walking uphill, or always downhill.
I mean...we're roughly on a ball...
2:03 PM Mr. Brown
Oval.
2:04 PM Mr. Silver
Oblate spheroid...work with me here....
If I was the center of all Earth activity...as I am from my POV...then I'm touching, roughly, a tangential point on a “sphere”.
I'd be at the “top”
2:04 PM Mr. Silver
Every average step is "down" from the top.
Yet I have to lean in and do work...which is a symptom of "up".
2:05 PM Mr. Blue
Mr. Brown, you have vertigo and shouldn't be driving.
2:06 PM Mr. Brown
Every time I take a shit I have to spin counter-clockwise to get it to come out.
2:07 PM Mr. Amethyst
WTF?
2:07 PM Mr. Blue
If human societies had begun in the southern hemisphere, would our maps today be upside down?
2:07 PM Mr. Amethyst
Possibly.
2:09 PM Mr. Silver
Define “society”.
2:10 PM Mr. Blue
Europe/Arabia/Egypt/China/Japan
2:10 PM Mr. Silver
One theory (which I subscribe to at the moment) about why the people of the northern hemisphere advanced technologically and the southern lagged behind is because there was no Pole Star....which lead to maps and technical navigation and a slew of other mathematical things.
2:10 PM Mr. Blue
There's just more land in the northern hemisphere.
2:11 PM Mr. Silver
We're talking about when the human population was in thousands to low millions.  It's not a population density thing, it's a observation/extrapolation thing.
2:11 PM Mr. Blue
Most of the land in the northern hemisphere is connected too... The southern hemisphere is more fragmented. Earth's northern hemisphere contains most of the planet's land, and roughly 90% of its human population.
2:13 PM Mr. Silver
Theory stated, there were some advanced southern societies. But the people that started working with serious math were north of the equator.
2:13 PM Mr. Brown
It could have been upside down. Well, wait. I guess that's a point of view situation since we don't know we are upside down.
2:14 PM Mr. Brown
How do you know which way is up in space?
lol
2:14 PM Mr. Blue
There isn't one.
2:14 PM Mr. Silver
There is no up.
2:15 PM Mr. Brown
Exactly.
2:15 PM Mr. Silver
Up on Earth is actually "out".
2:15 PM Mr. Brown
Right. But basically we just said north is up and south is down.
2:16 PM Mr. Silver
A long time ago, when a brilliant northerner observed "You know, that star never moves, every night, all year, year after year. What can I figure out from that?" Well...we were greatly accelerated on our way.  The southern hemisphere doesn't have one of those stars (visible).
And since the Pole Star is "up there", the maps should have the direction "up there" as well. North is, therefore, up.


Mr. Brown
Apparently you can catch snails with beer. That is sweet.
9:42 AM Mr. Gray
Or...you could just pick them up.
9:42 AM Mr. Blue
You could.. but they're too damned crafty.
9:42 AM Mr. Gray
It's not like they are going to run away from you.
9:48 AM Mr. Silver
Nothin' more dangerous than a cornered snail, son.
9:49 AM Mr. Brown
If they start making that chattering sound, you're in trouble.
9:49 AM Mr. Blue
A friend once got between a mother snail and her babies
RIP
9:49 AM Mr. Brown
It was a slimy end.



Mr. Blue
Some Fox news broadcaster says both Santa and Jesus are white.
11:04 AM Mr. Silver
OK. Like Blue-eyed Jesus white?
11:06 AM Mr. Blue
Just "white".
11:06 AM Mr. Silver
Undead white!!!!
11:06 AM Mr. Brown
That’s more gray.
Aaaaaah!!! Jesus is a zombie!
11:07 AM Mr. Silver
"Santa And Jesus Both Albino Say Fox Research Experts"
11:17 AM Mr. Gray
Because you know Jesus HAD to be white, being a Jew living in the middle east. He couldn’t possibly have been dark complected and look like anyone who might be Muslim. After all, religion has everything to do with your color, not where you are born. Jesus was Christian so he is white...fact!
11:19 AM Mr. Brown
I believe him to be middle eastern, and understand that all pictorial representations are out of the mind of the creator of that picture.
11:19 AM Mr. Silver
There's a place in China celebrating him as native Chinese. He traveled back home after the whole unpleasant “cross incident”. I believe they say he had a stand-in take the hit for the team...his brother maybe.
11:20 AM Mr. Gray
He must have gone there on his way to America to give his words to the Mormons.
11:20 AM Mr. Blue
Since God was his dad, I suppose it depends on what race God is.
11:20 AM Mr. Brown
None.
11:21 AM Mr. Blue
Since God made us in his image, I’m thinkin' God looks like this.
11:21 AM Mr. Silver
God is half skeleton!
11:21 AM Mr. Gray
God is white...haven't you seen those paintings in Italy? Him leaning down from a cloud to touch mankind and stuff?
11:21 AM Mr. Blue
Yep.. and He's quite built too.
11:21 AM Mr. Blue
Making great gains in Heaven. I wonder how much God can bench.
11:34 AM Mr. Silver
The great conundrum shifts from "Can God make a rock so big that He can't move it." to "How much can God bench?"
11:42 AM Mr. Gray
If he couldn’t move it, he couldn’t place it where he wants if he decided afterward it might look better somewhere else. Doesn't sound like good planning on his part...but then again, look at us as far as creations go.
God is definitely not a follow-through kinda guy.
11:43 AM Mr. Silver
The Bible is completely full of uncompleted projects, buggy components, and promises that He'll finish it all up later.
“When?”
Don't question The Lord, your God.”
“When?”
When the fullness of time has come.”
“When?”
Just have faith, ok?”
“WHEN?”
Look, I work in mysterious ways.”
“I think the “mystery” is this work You claim You're doing. How long is this going to take?”
No man will know the time.”
This one is gonna. WHEN?”
I'll come like a thief in the night, you'll never expect Me.”
“I'm thinking you're right that I should never expect You at this point. Is the theft in question all my years invested in this covenant with You?”
Fine! I'll wrap it all up tomorrow!  You'll feel rapturous over the final results. Ok?”
Well...ok. I'm sorry I doubted you.”
It's OK. (Heheh...  'Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.')”
