  1. Nobody knew just what to make of three items heavily wrapped in white packaging and duct tape outside the Philadelphia Phillies' ballpark.

     

    So, a few hours before Wednesday night's game, someone called the police as a precaution.

     

    The bomb squad showed up to detonate the three packages. Turns out they contained hot dogs.

     

    The wrapping that made them so suspicious was so the team mascot, the Phillie Phanatic, could fire them from a hot-dog launcher.

     

    The franks has been left behind inadvertently after a commercial photo shoot for the hot-dog maker.

     

    Team vice president Michael Stiles says Phillies employees aren't bomb experts, so it made sense to call the police.

     

    Wow...


  2. I was bored at work last night and I started thinking of things Trek characters would never say. Add your own.

     

    Picard: "Troi, I don't care what you sense..."

     

    Any character: "That's some nice piloting Deanna.."

     

    Kirk: "You know, I'm gonna wait till marriage for sex"

     

    Worf/Spock/T'Pol: "Yea, I'd love to talk about my species customs and culture"


  3. Romulan Ale was said to be a pure grain alcohol, so its likely pretty close to a 95% bottle of Everlcear.

     

    The recipe I have is;

     

    3/4 Everclear

    3/4 Triple Sec

    3/4 Bacardi 151

    3/4 Blue Curacao (or however you spell it!)

     

    Its a recipe you have to be VERY careful with, as Everclear isnt even supposed to be mixed with other alcohol. Besides that, drink even much of it and you will be in the hospital.

     

    Its supposed to be extremely potent and really only tolerable by Romulans to start with. Heck, even made Worf kinda blah when he had it =P

     

    I saw a recipe like that, but just minus the triple sec. It was 1/3 Everclear, 1/3 Bacardi 151, 1/3 Blue Curacao.


  4. Odie, I think I can answer some questions. One, the study most likely picked Red Bull because it is the most popular and well known of the energy drinks. Two, Red Bull relates to coffee in the caffeine amount. They say the amount of caffeine in Red Bull is about the same as a cup of coffee, 80 mg. That's actually on the lower side of caffeine for energy drinks.


  5. I keep getting the error code of Error U825. I went to Parachat's site and it just gave this bit of "help":

     

    Some of my users see Error U825 when they try to log into my ParaChat room. What would be the cause, and how do I resolve it?

     

     

    Solution:

    Error U825 is a user authentication error. It is usually attributable to an incorrect authentication URL that is set in the ParaChat service administration web page.

     

    In Invision Power Board (IPB), it may also be seen by a user who is not a member of an IPB message board User Group that has been granted permission to access the chat room. You may open a support ticket with our Support Team to provide an admin user name and password for your IPB message board so that they may access its Admin CP. We would be pleased to review your ParaChat implementation.

     

    I was wondering if anyone else got it, or it was just me.


  6. I can't believe that we have to wait another year for this movie. What happended to Christmas 2008? Now they have tacked on another eight months: another eight months to make more £££ and $$$ no doubt.

     

    Screwed over with petrol (gas), screwed over with food prices, now being screwed over by Star Trek!

     

    It's been months since the announcement of the postponement. Another way to look at it, they have more time to refine everything, and do reshoots, as well as more detail on the effects. Also, summertime means more money, more money means more confidence the studio has in Trek, and more confidence means the possibility of still more Trek.
