In my universe, they is kind of equivalents.

Just don't start me singing.

[unpredictablebijou]

I leave you with this.

And well, this.

Second strangest

I'll save the strangest for another time.

In a NASA tracking station, taking refuge from a blizzard, the dish making an awful ruckus.

This ten metre behemoth'd track one bird for a couple minutes, then fly at Mach III to the next starting point - and shake the shack in the process. That sucker was FAST, about nine metres per second - twenty MPH or so - and would go to or from full speed in like a fifth of a second.

So... howling, 80+ MPH winds shaking the place, in a room which looked and sounded like the bridge of the Enterprise, with her orgasms punctuated by an extremely loud buzzer warning anyone in the dome to drop now, followed by a minor earthquake and the whineWhineWHINEWHINEWHINEWhinewhine of that Hellish dish seeking its new az and el.

Guess you had to be there.

Heh heh. Unfortunately, with fabulous cooks like Ange and Anschul around, you're going to be getting tortured pretty regularly with the food thing in here.

But I'll argue, just for grins: everything you named involves cooking. Soup must be heated, pbj's take prep time and require getting at least two knives and a plate dirty, tuna fish has to be mixed with stuff and so on. All of my ingredients take only the time that it requires to remove them from bags and throw them onto a plate. That's one reason I go there; zero actual cooking.

Saffron rose lemonade was on the menu at a little middle eastern cafe I went to a while back. It was easily the most lovely, lightest, most refreshing thing I'd had in my mouth for a long while. I'm assuming it involves saffron and rose water added to lemonade. It was a sort of light rosy pink, and absolutely addictive. And the waitress didn't know, or didn't want to tell me, exactly how to make it. So I need to do more research.

I must STOP reading that as 'with fabulous COCKS like etc' that's twice I've done it now what would Freud make of that ?!

Why do I both completely relate to that and have it make me feel rather pervy?

Perhaps it is that the combination of "idle hands are the devil's work" and a vulnerably recumbent UYS that would (ahem) not make sport for idle hands. Ay least not mine. Idle, anyway.

I mean, really. My hands are rarely idle. They might flip disconsolately about the pages of our daily news, but idle?

I think not. Always intersted in probing, you know, life issues, I think.

Something like that, anyway.

I recognize, and fully accept, the disapprobriation of your Other People.

My counter will be that my fingertips feel divine.

L, all

Oh lord now you've done it's that word 'probe' it's one of my keywords guaranteed to get me going along with penetrate and g....... (oops did I say that!!)

Raise your hand if you've gotten actual comments or helpful critique from me about poetry.

Raise your hand if you have received nothing but the highest kindness and compassion from me, either in public or private. Permission is granted to quote any of my PM's, although this specific permission may not actually supersede
forum rules.

Well, I raised my right hand, then my left hand and now I am left typing with my toes. (Thank heavens I have talented toes!)

 

[UnderYourSpell]

You may be in need of a toe massage so if you find anyone willing to do it I will be the next in line

 

[PandoraGlitters]

I know you have long legs, UYS, but can your feet reach the U.S.? If so, I'll work on that.

 

[UnderYourSpell]

I have a very vivid imagination and I am still into TZ probing!

Probe, eh? *Files the information away for future reference* Heh heh heh.

Oooooh nooooo here we go againnnnn

*pokes head in the door, looks around*

I'll be in the back room if anyone needs me.

I'm curious now. What happens if I use probe and penetrate in the same sentence?

Somewhere in the Dry Valleys...

I'm curious now. What happens if I use probe and penetrate in the same sentence?

<inward_grumble>
Now where in Hell's that Kelvin probe? If I don't get this working in the next thirty they'll have to re-drill the core and I'll have blown another day. I s'pose I could use a penetrometer to probe the lake bed, but it wouldn't do well once the brine seeped in. Damn! Where is that lead set?!?
</inward_grumble>

Thanks for the coffee...

Nope; still here. Guess the space-time continuum is tougher than that.

You're using a Kelvin probe on UYS?!

I'm... fascinated.

 

[the Snood]

I'm... fascinated.

It becomes necessary when the, er, subject under test exhibits extremely low resistance.

She does seem rather superconductive, now that you mention it.

bring in rubber gloves and speculums and it's jelly time

Ermmmm what's a kelvin probe? will I like it does it hurt? not that a little hurt is bad depends where it is tho

 

[UnderYourSpell]

Next thing you know Bijou will be selling tickets again

I bet you'll like it. Engineers (and it sure sounds like the Snood is one too) are very, um, inventive.

[UnderYourSpell]

Wonder if Homb knows about them ...bet he does

 

[Safe_Bet]

Don't look now, but I think both of them have their 'slip sticks' out and are trying to calculate UYS' "Pi"

 

[Safe_Bet]

Unless they are German - then it's "Herr Pi"

Kelvin Probe.

I like the sentence "The Kelvin Probe is a non-invasive technique, yet it is extremely sensitive to changes in the top-most atomic layers."

I could make use of something like that.

I came in here for a bit of peace and quiet to write a sonnet, I was going to settle in the backroom that was sound proofed after the last time I dragged Leon in there but now I find myself contending with square roots next thing I know it will be protractors and spirit levels
