A friend just sent me this link to the NASA picture. They've found useful quantities of liquid water on Mars, yipee!

:D Ya got me Lau, I go to the link all the time thinking,
"FINALLY,where I wonder, under the poles, are the rovers still even working, how did they get all the way to the poles?"
Started my morning w/ a laugh.
Hi cjtut
I remember when I was a child living 10 miles south of Cincinnati Ohio and hearing on the news that some city council man got caught paying a prostitute with a CHECK (how dumb is that?) He went on and got a job in television...
what was his name...oh yeah...Jerry Springer. :D

Welcome to the cafe', cjtut! :D
I did not see you come in yesterday, though obviously, you were here. :oops:
Sometimes you have to smack me with a 2 x 4 when I am preoccupied.
But welcome, nonetheless!! ! :lol:


Or poke him with a sharp pointy stick. That works, too. :wink:

Welcome to the cafe, cjtut! Please feel free to grab a muffin and a coffee. :D



Someone wanted to borrow a sharp pointy stick? The long one or the highly-decorated one?


8O 8O 8O Whoa, whoa, whoa!! ! 8O 8O 8O
I'm like, sensing hostility 'n stuff. 8O 8O 8O

Totally uncalled for after the good news of the discoveries on Mars, and
Jerry Springer's comeback.

Now, just breathe deep, and think happy Martian thoughts.
......happy little Martian thoughts.....ooooooooooommmmmmmmm......

CCHHUUCCKKK......... the drawing is drawing you...... the drawing is drawing you.........

And I like the idea of mathematics when it applies to my knitting, which reminds me, I have a cardigan to get back to.

Cardigans don't knit themselves and art doesn't draw itself........ ummmmmm...... although at your house it just might. 8O

Bald heads need air circulation to dissipate the heat. That's why they are bald. Too hot. Hair just jumps right off. Capping my head could result in a nuclear fusion reaction that could dissipate the water off Mars! 8O

...and I'm from Tennessee. Socks? 8O Those must be those things I've read about that go with those shoe things I've read about...?

I think you "old farts" will enjoy this newspaper article I found today.

"Age is but a number for the silver surf brigade"
http://www.wrongplanet.net/forums-posting-editpost-p-1278424.html

Also, Australian dinosaurs, please look at this: a campaign to lobby the Australian government for more funding for children with Autism:
