Hey. I have a job that takes up a lot of my time and I don't have the amount of hours to waste on the internet like I used to. Anyways... I miss the blogs. They are funny this morning. I would like to be caught up on the Threadhappenings. Someone do that for me.

Yours truly,

the guy that posts the pictures of the cat.whalesbandana.com

I know this ain't no service forum, but I was just wondering if anyone else was having the same issue as me. So, here's my issue:



(ignore the $0.00 - i used a GC).

I've been waiting all week and they haven't even started to package it. :/

i has a blue button. it is funny.

but how can i make the image behind everything else in my profile (like my cat)?

tell me all the htmls that i need to know. thank you, loves.

Scientists Wednesday applauded as one of the most ambitious experiments ever conceived got successfully underway, with protons being fired around a 27-kilometer (17-mile) tunnel deep beneath the border of France and Switzerland in an attempt to unlock the secrets of the universe.

The Large Hadron Collider -- a $9 billion particle accelerator designed to simulate conditions of the Big Bang that created the physical Universe -- was switched on at 0732 GMT to cheers and applause from experts gathered to witness the event.

While observers were left nonplussed by the anticlimactic flashing dots on a TV screen that signalled the machine's successful test run, among teams of scientists involved around the world there were jubilant celebrations and popping champagne corks.

In the coming months, the collider is expected to begin smashing particles into each other by sending two beams of protons around the tunnel in opposite directions.

Skeptics, who claim that the experiment could lead to the creation of a black hole capable of swallowing the planet, failed in a legal bid to halt the project at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. Read full article

Keep the images SFW, please.

Personally, I find my body hair to be annoying. What about you guys? What man issues/situations do you love/hate?

since my bike is down, i had to take the bus home from work today, listening to music and not paying attention to anything.

as we were stopping at one of the bus stops, a girl in the back started screaming. i looked back and saw her pointing out the window, and i followed her stare. out in an unfenced cul-de-sac were 3 guys. two of them standing, one of them was on the ground bloody. the taller of the two men had a baseball bat and was about ready to smash it into his head again, when they realized a whole busload of people were looking at them. as the bus driver radioed in the 911 call the other man, who hadn't been doing anything, took a pistol out of his pocket and shot the guy in the head. at this point the whole bus was in shock and glued to the morbid scene. the two men got into a car and sped off.

when i came home i was visibly shaken. i told her what i had just seen. then my mom got scared, she said "you're moving with your auntie and uncle in bel-air." i whistled for a cab and when it came near, the license plate said "fresh" and it had dice in the mirror. if anything i could say that this cab was rare but I thought "nah, forget it, yo homes, to bel-air!" i pulled up to the house about seven or eight and I yelled to the cabby, "yo homes, smell ya later!" i looked at my kingdom, i was finally there, to sit on my throne as the prince of bel-air.

... into this blog just to prove a point about our vanity.

dan, can you offer a succinct explanation for the eames lounge thing?

ok. in the generic "hi, i'm new" blogs many people, including myself, would just give an equally generic "hi and welcome." at roughly the same time, i became obsessed with this cat:



I began writing "hi and welcome" and posting my cat underneath. a few weeks and about 4 dozen or so of these blogs later speedyjoe posted a picture that he came across on fffffound of a pug in an eames chair:



xiv edited the picture and put my cat in the picture:



i would then use that picture as the picture that i posted along with "hi and welcome." eventually i added mew mew underneath. after some time i just took a screen shot of the post (including text) and used that so i didn't have to type the same things over and over again:



THEN! people began photoshopping things onto the chair as a joke. this happened every once in a while for a month and then the blog took off.

fun was had.

edit:

i have since added to my "i and welcome" + "mew mew":
