Bang!Zoom! Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Ever have an interest, hobby, idea or ideology that you are absolutely *positive* no one here on this board would connect to- pure weirdo food realm stuff? So you say nothing ever about it because you'd be blown out of the water or passed by? This is the thread to put your interest entry in. I'll get all Joe Brave and start. I bet there is not another soul reading that enjoys NWA remixes and finds them somehow intellectually expanding, stimulating. Especially remix on repeat play with extended bass. --- Your turn....have an entry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I think you have me beat. I cannot name or think of one single song NWA sings. I just know most of them have the F word in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I skipped a potential date night with dh because the Saints are playing a play-off game tonight. BTW, they won, so it was totally worth it.

meggie Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I bet I am the only one who gets annoyed when things are crooked. For example, if I'm laying in bed I can't have one side of the sheet going over my shoulder and the other side going over my waist; they must both go across at the same level. Or in school, my desk HAD to be parallel with the wall. If it was angled, I had to fix it.

Bang!Zoom! Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) You are correct, I mean that NWA. Great history behind the movement and development of the music. I'm watching Howard Zinn lectures with Snoop Dogg, remix "Sweat" (Sweat (David Guetta Remix) playing in the background. What a cool fit- absolute precision and paralleled connections if you handle it just right. To me, it's like opera. Told ya I was weird. ------ I love football too, varying degrees in the house. Absolutely can cause problems..lol. PS: Wendi, someone 'round here needs to organize a twitter / facebook list for next years "festivities". I bet it would be a flipping riot. Go Packers!

Bang!Zoom! Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Hey Julie, did you ever read Snowball by Warren Buffett? Loved that book, got the kid totally involved in it, took us a whole summer to get through it....that (for me) was a book I had to set down several times and just let the "stuff" gel in my head for a day or two before I picked it back up again... One of favorite quotes from it: "When I was a kid, I got all kinds of good things. I had the advantage of a home where people talked about interesting things, and I had intelligent parents and I went to decent schools. I don't think I could have been raised with a better pair of parents. That was enormously important. I didn't get money from my parents, and I really didn't want it. But I was born at the right time and place. I won the 'Ovarian Lottery'."Warren Buffett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyLittleBears Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I bet I am the only one who gets annoyed when things are crooked. For example, if I'm laying in bed I can't have one side of the sheet going over my shoulder and the other side going over my waist; they must both go across at the same level. Or in school, my desk HAD to be parallel with the wall. If it was angled, I had to fix it. DH seems to think it's funny to twist his socks or the kids' pants around because it absolutely must be fixed. :glare: Punk :tongue_smilie: Nope. I have to have the covers on the bed lined-up.( the edge of the comforter must be exactly lined up with the sheet and blanket) or I CANNOT get to sleep. My hubby goes in to fix the bed before bed.:lol: Twisted pants on the kids drive me nuts as well as, sippy cups with miss-matched lids.:tongue_smilie: I thought I was the only one!

Tap Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Not the only one--I'm thinking the ewe lamb born today will look pretty good in white paper. Two go to the butcher on Tuesday! Rule#1: don't name butcher lambs... Next year's beef is in the corrals right now. We have a friend who raises our beef for us each year. Dh is always trying to get me to do down to the pasture to see our cow. I tell him "I don't want to meet our meat...or it will likely become a pet and not dinner!" I am not naive about where meat comes from, but I also know my own limitations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
