I was watching Bravo a few months ago...perhaps during Halloween time...and they happened to have this show about the scariest movie moments...
100 Scariest Movie Moments (Courtesy of Bravo.com)
I thought it was pretty well done. My dad said that when he was in the army, Alien had just come out and it scared the crap out of him, and they gave Alien the runner-up position...so I think it's a fair deal. I do think that the Texas Chainsaw Massacre should've been a little higher though...just a little bit...but then again, Psycho and The Exorcist beat it out, at least they're in good company.
I dare you to go through that list and see how many you haven't seen. 100 scary movies are more than you think!
I saw all of the top 10 except for the one "Wait Until Dark", which I've never heard of. I think the one I haven't seen but am pretty interested in is "The Changeling"-it's from 1980, but I've heard rumors of a remake...
looks pretty scary!
you know what's even scarier than the 100 scariest movie moments? Ashlee Simpson being pregnant!
Sorry I had to!

you know... i'm going to have to agree on the whole Ashlee Simpson breeding thing. i heard an interview and she was talking about said new tattoo of a peony... only she pronounced it as "pee-oh-nie" rather than how it's actually pronounced, if that does any justice. haha. i have a theory that the only reason Pete Wentz wants to date/marry her is because she's famous and rich and my theory for the reason she only wants to date/marry Pete is because she wants to be more edgy when really she's more like a scene-gwen stefani-wannabe. hahaha!

Your main target would be to create all aspects of this technique as smooth as possible. We try to retain everything to your completed attic alteration internal from discussion to guarantee an easy transition from start to conclude and ensure your fulfillment, Side Extension in Barnet. Answer any inquiries you might have and one-of we administrators will meet with one to discuss all specs of the attic conversion. Your manager will likely then supply a costeffective policy for the task requirements you will have reviewed.
Yet another bathroom on a house's ground floor should really be a last resort, Side Extension in Barnet. It's useful but will include tiny if something towards the property?s importance as bathrooms far from bedrooms are incorrect (irrespective of for folks who work outdoors). Even though you do not need planning authorization for the expansion, because you are utilizing acceptable development privileges, you have to get building regulation acceptance.
Builders specialize in building issues and architects specialize in building areas, although ?It looks obvious,' explains Judith Tugman of Builder Your House. ?Going straight to a builder means you lose out on the design phase that is crucial. You'll end up getting a home that's right for you by using an architect and that you'll love Remember, too, an extension that is horribly designed can actually decrease the price that is selling.'
Professional Extensions: the expansion, is the very first thing you have to consider's purpose. Is that this expansion for a trendy showroom or for office offices? Do you really need the extensions to fit a certain functional? Consult the professionals about design particulars prior to ensure your professional house stays practical for workers and appealing to clients. Some extensions might need additional building permissions and also permission from neighbours if your areas have been in a more residential location.
Take note, that price for property extension will be different depending on facets that are many: location of fitting akitchen quality of coatings: electric, plumbing function, the home, bathroom and sort of extension needed. One- extensions are far more frequent, nevertheless two- storey extension without entering the loft can create extra space,. Incorporating two storeys extension doesn ?t imply that it will run you doubly much. Only grow the figure for a single-storey by two, Side Extension in Barnet.

The Project involved detailed spatial analysis of experimental wind data to develop GIS mapping of wind design parameters for the International Building Code and ASCE-7. Consistent with the requirements of the International Building Code and intent of the ASCE-7 standard, customized wind design factors were developed from site-specific wind-tunnel test data for:
1) Specification of topographic effects factor Kzt
2) Directionality weighting, Kd, in consideration of the probability of critical windspeed
3) Mapping of Exposure Categories for determination of Kz , exposure coefficient.
A risk-consistent level of protection for hurricane hazard can thus be achieved in structural design of new buildings in the City and County of Honolulu.
This work also included the drafting of the Honolulu Building Code Structural Wind Provision amendments in the Citys code adoption ordinance.
Wind Design Mapping For Use in the City & County of Honolulu Building Code
Adoption of a 2003 Model Building Code, Incorporating New Wind Design:
This project entailed the preparation of a comprehensive wind study for adoption of an update to the City and County of Honolulu Building Code using the amendments to the International Building Code (IBC) 2003 provisions to make improvements in building safety and incorporate a new generation of design windspeed mapping. The project has undertaken new wind speed design mapping and technical provisions to enable the adoption of the International Building Code and ASCE-7 standard by the City and County of Honolulu, which is located within a hurricane hazard region.
Several necessary technical modifications were introduced so that state-of-the-art research results can be used in design and retrofit applications in a manner that completely addresses the requirements of the International Building Code. As the successor to the Uniform Building Code, the IBC introduced an ASCE-7 topographic factor, Kt, which in its current generic specification does not give accurate results nor can it be applied with consistency in the complex topography of Hawaii.
The ASCE-7 standard also requires a directionality factor, Kd. It had been based on flat terrain conditions without orographic channeling of wind, so modifications were necessary. Implementation of the ASCE wind standard in Hawaii required a GIS-based evaluation of the Kt and Kd wind directionality terms.

We never really know who receives our boxes of kindness as we distribute them to the Seamoor unit at North Devon district hospital every few weeks for our Amazing Chemotherapy nurses to hand out to intravenous Chemotherapy patients, so it's always lovely when we see a message pop up in our inbox from a receiver.
The story I'm going to share with you today is a very special one regarding a local lady called Jennifer from Ilfracombe who sadly passed away two days after Christmas from Sepsis that she was sadly high risk from due to her Chemotherapy lowering her immune system.
I was surprised to receive an email all the way from America, Charles who is Jennifer's brother, he lives in Manhattan and had messaged us telling us his sister had received one of our boxes of kindness while he was visiting her back in the summer.
She had given him her ChemoHero Band within the box on the condition that when she finished her treatment he was to return it to her!
Sadly after Christmas when Jennifer passed Charles returned to England with his wife and daughter to support Michael, Jennifer's husband and their son during her memorial service but he also felt he wanted to return Jennifer's ChemoHero band to be with her.
A few days later he contacted us and we were honoured to meet with Charles and Michael and Jennifer's family.
It was an emotional meeting....as we never usually meet the families the boxes of kindness go to. I feel at times we underestimate just what our charity and the simple items of a ChemoHero band within it means to the patients!
Having never met Jennifer in person I could see she was a lot of fun as this certainly shone from her families eyes as they reminisced about her charity and antique shopping habits....giving us an insight into why she loved her ChemoHero box.
We spoke about Jennifer and how well she had been responding to her Chemotherapy but sadly it was Sepsis that took her from us.
Her body got an infection and started to attack its self, causing organ failure.
Sepsis, if caught early enough, can be reversed but when muddled in with general side effects from chemotherapy can sadly be missed.
Jennifer's memorial money was so kindly donated to ChemoHero as well as her family pledging to raise more in the future.
One thing that has been highlighted for us as a charity for Chemotherapy patients is the need to start to put Thermometers within our boxes of kindness and after meeting with Jennifer's family it only seems right that this is how we continue a legacy in Jennifer's memory.
With the help of Jennifer's family every single box of kindness will contain an electronic in mouth Thermometer, with a simple sticker with her name on.
One of the first signs of Sepsis is a raised or lowered temperature so we hope by patients taking their boxes home on their first treatments and having their thermometers they will be able to be keep on top of their temperature and seek medical help at the very first point of feeling unwell.
There are around 123,000 cases of sepsis a year in England. Around 37,000 people die every year as a result of the condition.
We hope in North Devon we will be a part of lowering this statistic.
We would like to share some words from Jennifer's brother.
In early October 2017 my sister, Jennifer was diagnosed with bowel cancer that had spread to her liver. Her doctor had shown her how much significant progress she had made after three chemo treatments. We were all high-fiving. She said, "bro, I think I dodged a bullet." Sadly, on December 29th around midnight her time, she passed. A major infection had taken her life.
I feel fortunate that Laura and I were able to visit her and her family in November, in her hometown of Ilfracombe, Devon England. She looked great and was super optimistic.
At her house one night, she brought out a care package that ChemoHero had given her when she received her chemo at the hospital. She pulled out the books, honey, skin products, scarf, and wristband that I now wear in her memory. She told us how much it meant to her and how kind everyone had been.
I'm deeply saddened by the loss of my "Sostir," as I had nicknamed her. One of the memories that brings me comfort is the thought of how supportive ChemoHero had been to her.
On January 19th, 2018 my significant other Laura and my daughter Sophia travelled from New York to Jennifer's hometown of Ilfracombe, North Devon. We met up with my UK family, including brother-in-law Michael and nephew (Jennifer's son) Elliott.
The funeral was held on the afternoon of the 22nd at the Barnstaple crematorium. Although grief-stricken and sad, all of us reminisced about the wonderful person my sister was. Everyone talked about her sense of humor. Nobody else came close to matching her antics, her faces, her wit, and how she told a story. She was the funniest person I knew.
A few days after the memorial service, our small band met with Lisa and Ken from ChemoHero. The work her organization does is truly inspiring. As she said, their mission is not to provide funds to eradicate cancer, but simply to bring comfort where very little exists for people undergoing treatment. I should also note that Lisa and Ken had both been struck by cancer.
We mind mapped ideas for new items to include in ChemoHero's care packages, which included thick socks and thermometers. A couple of weeks later I got an email from Lisa with a beautiful sticker with Jennifer's name on it. The sticker will go on the thermometer boxes. I couldn't think of something that my sister would be more honored by.
Thank you, Lisa and ChemoHero for all the work that you do and for bringing caring and comfort to those who need it the most.
I ask that you join me in supporting the wonderful work being done by ChemoHero in their community in Devon by making a donation in Jennifer's (Sostir's) memory.

In the Courtyard & The Viper Barn – New displays & film await you when we open for our 2019 season on 19th February
Don't miss: The stone carving from the 'Lace Factory', the barn where William encountered the Viper which inspired him to write his mock heroic poem 'The Columbriad' and the view across the gardens to the spire of Olney Church.
'Close by the threshold of a door nailed fast
Three kittens sat; each kitten looked aghast;
I passing swift and inattentive by,
At the three kittens cast a careless eye,
Not much concerned to know what they did there,
Not deeming kittens worth a poet's care.
But presently a loud and furious hiss
Caused me to stop and to exclaim, 'What's this?'
When lo! upon the threshold met my view,
With head erect, and eyes of fiery hue,
A viper, …'
William & John travelled this route on their visits to each other as they had paid a guinea a year to take a short cut across Mrs Asprey's orchard.

The former burger model (Carl's Jr.) said she had to leave school due to all the harassment.
"Girls would yell at me and call me a slut," she says. "I would go to parties and get beer thrown on my head—there was so much bullying. It was just so awful, and that's why now I kind of use my platform to promote anti-bullying. I try to use what I went through to be a voice for it, because it's still happening and getting even worse now with social media."
The Orlando born costar of the DNCE music video for "Body Moves" reveals that despite her amazing looks, she remains solo.
"I'm single right now and really enjoying it. A lot of times when I'm in a relationship, I am focusing on the other person so much. Now I can focus on my work and focus on me."
McKinney has local connections, moving to South Florida as a teen after dropping out.
Memories, she has a few:
"I loved the feeling of being out at night in Miami. I always hung out with the local vibe, not the touristy places. We would go out to cool bars like Radio, and I always ended up going to Wall on Tuesdays. I loved the atmosphere there. I felt at home, and it was just always a good time. I would work all week, but then Tuesday night was kind of a Miami, let-your-hair-down night. For dinner, I love going to Milos—that is one of my favorite restaurants. That's something I do miss, the energy."

Written in Stone
Forget the piece of flimsy, tiny paper shoved into a cardboard holder.
Now this is a Diploma!
In the central courtyard of the Temple of Literature, Vietnam's first University built in the 11th century, are 80 of these stone stelae mounted on the back of turtles, erected for each graduating class. Each graduate has their name etched into stone as they pass their strenuous exams after five years of study. And in the spirit of learning, I discovered that Chinese characters were used in Vietnam until the 17th century, when a Portugese missionary phonetically translated Vietnamese into the roman alphabet.
There must be a hidden academic in me somewhere. I love visiting universities. I love the tranquil atmosphere, and the idea that people (well, only men) a thousand years ago traveled thousands of miles overland by foot to obtain knowledge. It was thrilling to visit the first university in Morocco, built in the 9th century, as well touring the very new Kathmandu University, built in 1991. Knowledge and education flourish only in times of peace and prosperity.
And so, a wish for peace and prosperity in this holiday season, and a happy and bright New Year!

Lost in the fog of Poloz's moment in the sun and Yellen's offsetting dovish lean on Capitol Hill, was perhaps the most important data print of them all: China aggregate financing.
The TSF data is, in many ways, the grandaddy of them all.
To understand why, you need only have a look at the following set of charts from Citi's Matt King which show that everything, including the global credit impulse, is indeed "made in China" these days:
So that's why we care about China's ongoing effort to squeeze the country's labyrinthine shadow banking complex. The worry, simply put, is that "real" credit creation will become "collateral" damage (there's a double entendre in there) in the push to stamp out leverage and speculation.
But beyond that, it's important to remember that much of the credit extended via the "mind-boggling" (to quote SocGen) array of shadow conduits has financed all manner of trades and so, it's not always clear what the consequences will be when you start turning the screws on speculation. You might, for instance, trigger mayhem across the metals complex or accidentally tip the domino that causes a bond market rout. Before you know it, you're playing a game of Whack-a-mole.
In effect then, there are two components to this: 1) the 30,000 foot view that's concerned with propping up the overall credit impulse and thereby the Chinese economy, and 2) ensuring that as you "cleanse" the credit creation machine, that cleansing doesn't end up setting off some kind of horrific chain reaction with the potential to spill over into other markets both domestic and foreign. In both cases, China's deleveraging effort poses a threat to global stability.
Ok, so with that, here's the June data:
- China's June New Loans 1.54t Yuan; Est. 1.3t Yuan (forecast range 900b yuan to 1.8t yuan from 39 economists)
- June aggregate financing 1.78t yuan; est. 1.5t yuan (range 1t yuan to 2.03t yuan, 33 economists). May 1.06t yuan
Right, so the first thing to note about the aggregate figure is that it represents a deceleration and indeed if you think about the "credit impulse" (or, three-month TSF as a percentage of GDP), it's still below the 10-year average:
You always want to look at the breakdown to see where the negative numbers are, because that says a lot about what the fuck is is actually going on (and yes, the profanity is necessary there because as anyone who follows these numbers knows all too well, the main question is always – always – "what the fuck is going on?") Here's the granular look:
As you can see from the highlights, some of the off-balance-sheet shit fell again as acceptance bills and entrusted loans were in the red, with the latter now having contracted for three straight months. And then corporate bond financing contracted for a second consecutive month, although not nearly as deeply as it did in May, when that negative RMB246 billion number grabbed a few headlines.
But you can't just note those figures and call it a day.
There's also M2 growth to talk about. It slowed to a record low 9.4%. When you think about that, think about the contraction of off-balance-sheet lending and also the decrease in receivable investments and reduced lending to NBFIs:
As Deutsche Bank notes, what they're doing is effectively stripping out superfluous layers from conduit financing. To wit:
The credit slowdown was partly attributable to a reduction in self-circulating funds, which were simply circulating among various financial institutions via multiple layers of SPVs without supporting the real economy.
Here's a fun flow chart (note the ubiquitous use of the term "schemes"):
See those grey-shaded boxes on the right? Ok, so look at those and then extrapolate something about this:
If you believe that the elimination of those self-circulating funds is what's being reflected in the slowing credit growth, then you can draw some conclusions about why the Chinese economy isn't completely rolling over.
"The credit slowdown was partly attributable to a reduction in funds which were circulating among various financial institutions without supporting the real economy," Deutsche Bank posits. Given that, "cutting them off would have a rather limited impact."
Here's what "limited impact" looks like:
There are all kinds of moving parts here and really, the line between what's "shadow" credit and what's not is just as blurry as the line between what's "credit to the real economy" and what's bullshit speculation. Indeed, one of the main problems here is that when you stamp out "speculation", you can end up pricking bubbles, and that, invariably, trips up the broader economy.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but this is absurdly convoluted and it is nothing short of a miracle that something hasn't gone horribly awry yet.
The key word there being "yet."

C&H was born in 2004, so I guess I really took my sweet time discovering it. There's a book coming out in January 19, 2010 (one day after my birthday) available for pre-order on Amazon and I want it!

Facing every morning sun with a sense of resentment and a lack of admiration for everything and everyone that I've come in contact with. I can't hold back the truth when this has become the extent of my existence. I witnessed a change with my own eyes. I did nothing to stop this.
-Counterparts, The Reflex Tester
The familiar pain sets in again and I won't let this bring me down. It's things like this that made me who I am today. It's thing like this that helped to shape/make me who I am today. It's every hardship that I've faced.
-Counterparts, Isolation
And I've lost hope in myself. And I just want you to know: as everyday goes by I must accept that you're now living your own life.
-Counterparts, Isolation
This is our own world and it's up to us to decide our own fate. And even though change may be unavoidable, it's up to us to emerge from the bottom of the barrel. As a whole, we can impact mankind for the better. And the earlier we realize this, the sooner we can reassemble our lives. Now is our chance to rebuild.
-Counterparts, Goodbye, Megaton
Others may tell you how to live, but I can assure that your life is in your own hands. And you can mold it into any shape you want.
-Counterparts, Prophets
Be what you want to be and leave the rest behind you. Anyone can follow blindly but it's up to you to rise above the masses. And chase your dreams because they will soon become reality.
-Counterparts, Prophets
I will not go to my grave yearning for what "could have been." I know exactly who I am and I know exactly what I will become.
-Counterparts, Prophets
We are quickly being led to an early grave by the ones that were meant to nourish our growth. And though their influence is the tallest barrier that we are left to face, we can overcome this. It's us against this fucking world! But, we are armed with hope and heart, and we're unbreakable. This is an uprising!
-Counterparts, A Plea: A Promise
When you're reduced to living everyday carrying the weight of your conscience on your back, just know it can be lifted. And you can be victorious in this war against yourself. You've got the strength inside to turn this all around.
-Counterparts, Only Anchors
I'm standing my ground living for right now. And I'm finally free. Only anchors can keep me from moving forward.
-Counterparts, Only Anchors
Every day we face helps build the strength that makes us who we are. I've lived through this, and so can you.
-Counterparts, Dark Ages
You walk this road of desolation only to end up on your knees. But just know that you are not alone. The only things holding you back are the lies that you refuse to challenge. You're drowning in a sea of self destruction,
and your lungs are starting to cave in. And when you feel that your words can only be heard in echoes, they are more deafening than ever before.
-Counterparts, Dark Ages
Our once solid path is starting to diverge. And the space between us growing ever greater makes it hard for me to breathe. But no amount of distance can change my feelings for you.
-Counterparts, Digression
You could be thousands of miles away but I'll still see you when I close my eyes. We've come too far to let our story end like this. And we've come too far to let what we've built fall apart. We both know this is love. I will never forget you.
-Counterparts, Digression
I never thought that I would need to justify a reason to continue in this life I lead. I fucking hate the world! I fucking hate myself! I swore I'd never fucking feel like this.
-Counterparts, The Disconnect
How can I be expected to help anyone else when I can't even help myself? Call me a hypocrite and I'll be the first one to agree. I am no longer the prophet I once claimed to be. I'm stuck between trying to find where I stand and what it is I stand for. I am no one.
-Counterparts, I Am No One
While I may die poor, at least my life had meaning. There's more to life than living, and I truly feel alive. And I know that when I die, there will be others who feel the same way ready to take my place.
-Counterparts, The Constant
I am proud of all that I've become. And I'm well aware that I have steered myself in the right direction.
-Counterparts, Jumping Ship
I think it's safe to say that I've become everything I wanted to be. And no one can take that from me. All of my heroes have failed me, but I won't ever fail myself. I can't believe how naive I used to be when I never really needed anyone. All of my heroes have failed me, but I won't ever fail myself.
-Counterparts, Pedestal
I want to thank you for never being there. Your absence has forced me to find my own way while others are led through life with a blindfold.
-Counterparts, Thank God
I reject the thought of a god when all we see is the work of an ill-fated world.
-Counterparts, Thank God
Who am I to say what I believe is right for the masses? I just know it's right for me. For this I have secured my place in hell. But every day I face is my own heaven in the making.
-Counterparts, Thank God
What do you believe in? What do you think is right? Centuries have passed, the voice of reason is still being suppressed.
-Counterparts, Thank God
I reject a liar's cross. Thank you for never being there. Thank God for never being there.
-Counterparts, Thank God

Mr. Hebert presented his concerns (see handout) should changes be made.

He suggested that a meeting/event center be constructed on a foundation at the museum that was to be used for another phase; suggested that pavilions be built at the lakefront.

They're called Dreamers: those young, undocumented immigrants who would be eligible for legal status under the Dream Act. But the Dream Act has long been stalled in Congress, and young immigrants in New York and throughout the country are doing more to show their support for the bill.
New Yorkers who traveled to the Democratic National Convention may have seen a 27-year-old Latino woman on stage. She spoke to the convention on Sept. 5, marking the highest profile appearance so far by a Dreamer. Benita Veliz is a leader of the group, and she and other Dreamers have come out of hiding to show that their illegal status is nothing to be ashamed of.
Veliz was brought to the United States as a child. At the age of 16, she graduated as valedictorian of her high school class, and she earned a degree with a double major by the time she was 20. Yet, as she says, "I've had to live almost my entire life knowing I could be deported just because of the way I came here."
Many people in the Dreamer movement saw Veliz's appearance at the Democratic convention as a sign that President Obama will continue to work to pass the Dream Act in his second term. Other Dreamers want to apply more pressure, though.
On Sept. 4, 10 protesters were arrested not far from the convention. They are undocumented immigrants who travelled many miles to demand more help from President Obama. Specifically, they want to make it easier for immigrants to obtain legal status. It was noted that the protestors did not stop by the Republican convention in Tampa because it was believed the Republicans would not offer any help.
As the election season moves along, New York residents with immigration concerns will want to watch closely. It seems that, finally, much-needed immigration reform may be on the horizon, but only time (and policy) will tell.

Ghenghen! Federal High Court Abuja Dismisses Melaye's Suit, Tells INEC To Continue Recall
Justice Nnamdi Dimgba, in his judgment, ordered that the Independent National Electoral Commission "shall proceed with the recall process".
The judgment effectively terminated the earlier ex parte order made by another judge of the Federal High Court in Abuja, Justice John Tsoho, on July 6, 2017, directing parties to maintain status quo.
But the Justice Dimgba, to whom the case was reassigned, ordered that the process shall only proceed with the recall process, subject to the service of the petition, the full list and signatures of persons in support of the recall process.

Fintech Week Silicon Valley is one of the best places to mine for cryptocurrency trends. A few months ago, the price of bitcoin was projected to hit $4,000 by end of 2017. Surprisingly, it already surpassed $4,000 and someone projected that its value may reach $50,000 by 2027. The value of cryptocurrency market is projected to rise from about $140 billion to $2 trillion, with bitcoin accounting for almost 50% of that value.

Six years after the killing of Osama Bin Laden, the CIA has come out with more details about the contents on the former Al-Qaeda leader's computer hard drives recovered after the assault, it has been reported.
While most of it remains withheld for national security reasons, the agency has revealed that Laden had a bunch of animated movies on his computer including the likes of Antz, Chicken Little, Home on the Range, Storm Rider: Clash of the Evils, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, Cars and even the animated anthology feature Batman: Gotham Knight.
In terms of live-action films, he also had The Three Musketeers, the video games Final Fantasy VII and Resident Evil and even Morgan Spurlock's documentary Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden? along with a lot of BBC and National Geographic documentaries and pornography.
Since there were children present in the compound where Laden was killed, it's not clear as to who the movies were actually for.

Throughout The Car Industry
Scion FR-S Commercial Shoot Goes Awry (Video)
Toyota has been busy producing footage and commercials of its new GT 86/Scion FR-S. The videos we actually get to see are smooth, aesthetic footage that highlight Toyota's sporty new cars. But it's not always so smooth behind the scenes. A new video shows one unexpected blooper that surely caused the director to yell "Cutttttt!!!"
During the video shoot, professional driver Ken Gushi is surprised by a sudden flash of fast, spry deer. The deer leaps right out into the road and hops across just inches from the FR-S' bumper. Gushi appears to swerve ever so slightly but is admirably unrattled and steady at the wheel.
Gushi explains: "As I come across this left-hand turn, over a crest and onto a straight...all of a sudden I see this black figure just pouncing around. At that moment, I knew: Oh $#@!, something's wrong." He then turns it around to Scion's advantage, adding, "The car brakes really well; it handles really well."
So even professional drivers on closed commercial sets have to deal with unexpected obstacles on the road. The video was shot at California's Mt. Diablo State Park, so it's not entirely surprising that there was some wildlife around.
I grew up in an area with a big deer overpopulation problem, so this video is a little too close to reality for me. Check it out:

This was a close call if they would have hit that deer the car would have been in horrible shape.

How often does this happen? Thankfully they didn't hit the deer.

Fan Fics
The Crazy Cartoon Caper
by Alan Smithee
(Scene: An odd looking model island, then the camera zooms downward under the water, to
the city of Bikini Bottom. Several odd houses are seen, before they focus in on the
pineapple house of that wacky character SpongeBob Squarepants.
SB: (laughing) Well Gary, I finally finished cleaning the house, luckily I have a day
off today. (Suddenly the doorbell rings) Hmm I wonder who that could be? (He walks over
and opens the door, revealing his guest to be none other than his best friend Patrick
Star). Hey Patrick!
Patrick: Hi SpongeBob, are you ready to go yet?
SB: You bet lemme just get one thing (he rushes off and reappears just as quickly, with
a backpack and tiny net) Okay now I'm ready to go jellyfishing.
Patrick: Great!
(They run off)
SB: (singing) Ooh I love jellyfishing, I love jellyfishing.
(Patrick joins in and both are soon repeating the phrase over and over. Soon they reach
Jellyfish Fields.)
SB: Ooh boy, look at all the jellyfish! I'm gonna catch the most.
Patrick: Not unless I catch the most SpongeBob.
(The two friends run around laughing happily and netting the tiny creatures, then
letting them out again. Meanwhile up above Bikini Bottom, an ominous submarine hovers
above their location. A small group of men in scuba gear are later seen, armed with spear
guns, and a mysterious type of weapon.)
(Back in the field, SpongeBob and Patrick are pursuing more jellyfish)
SB: Come here little jellyfish, I don't want too hurt you, I just want to catch you.
(He nets it) Gotcha! (Then he allows it to fly out of his net) That's another one Patrick.
Patrick: Ooh you're good SpongeBob, but not good enough (he jumps in attempt to catch
another jellyfish, only to miss and slam face-first into the ground. He and Bob laugh
happily. Meanwhile the scuba men have arrived.)
Soldier #1: Alright men, remember we're looking for that sponge. According to this he's
probably off... (pulls out a piece of paper) jellyfishing. So look for a giant sponge and
a huge star and we'll have him. Now move!
(The scuba troops swim off)
(Back in the jellyfishing field, Bob and Patrick are still attempting to catch the most
SB: I've got another two more Patrick.
Patrick: Yeah, well I got another...one.
SB: That's great (laughs, then he sees another jellyfish) I've got it! (He chases the
fish all over the field) Gotcha! (He lowers his net, but when he looks he has not captured
a jellyfish but the head of a scuba man). What kind of odd fish is this? (He looks at him)
Hmm flippers, and you have an odd looking machine on your back!
Soldier #1: I've found him men, move in.
SB: Hey cool (he grabs the radio) attention, this is SpongeBob calling Patrick, come in
Patrick (laughs).
Soldier #1: Give me that! (He grabs it, then his pals show up, one aims an odd
bazooka-like weapon at him).
SB: What the? Oh no aliens!
(The gun fires, trapping SpongeBob in a net)
SB: Ahhh Patrick I'm being abducted by alien fish!
Patrick: Huh? (He runs over to see the scuba men grab Bob) Hey you aliens let go of my
friend. (One of them gestures to Patrick, another responds by firing his spear gun, which
hits Patrick in his head and pins him to a tree). Aaaaah!
SB: Patrick get help!
Soldier #1: (Into radio) We've got him, bring us in (the sub appears slightly overhead)
SB: Oh no they plan on feeding me to their shark god.
(The scuba men grab the net and swim upward toward the sub).
Patrick: (Calling upward) Don't worry SpongeBob, I'll get help. (He removes the spear
from his head and runs to his house. We see him watching t.v, later he is eating dinner,
and later still he is sleeping. Suddenly he shoots up in fright) SpongeBob's been
kidnapped, I gotta get help! (He runs off through the city).
(Scene: A dark city filled with odd Gothic-shaped houses. But one specific house is
zoomed in on. Outside is a batch of harmless lawn gnomes, but this average suburban house
is not what it appears. Suddenly a green furred dog opens the door, peeks out, and then
closes it again).
GIR: All clear.
(Cut to Zim who is sitting on the couch, out of his disguise).
Zim: Good, apparently Dib is still at home, no doubt plotting some scheme to expose me,
hmmph good luck. (He inserts his fake eyes and wig) Come GIR, we must travel to the
Earthling convenience mart and purchase bovine emission.
GIR: Can we get a muffin?
Zim: (Angrily) No! Now no more fooling around! (They walk outside just as they get to
the end of the block; a huge black van pulls up in front of them) Miserable motorist, hey
you move your vehicle I wish to pass!
(The van remains still)
Zim: Did you not hear me? I said move miserable motorist, before I bring doom down upon
(Suddenly a group of small men come out of the van armed with weapons).
Zim: What? What is going on? Is this Dib's doing?
(One of the men fires his weapon, trapping Zim in a net)
Zim: Aaagh I've been discovered! (He grabs the net but is electrocuted) GIR, help me I
order you!
GIR: Right sir (his eyes flash red, but before he can do anything, one of the men hands
him a stuffed pig) Piggy!
Zim: Unhand me you miserable humans or I shall rain death down upon you and your entire
planet. Your streets will run red with blood... (One of the men tazers him and he falls
silent. He is dragged into the van, while another guy picks up GIR and throws him in. Then
the van takes off).
(Scene: The Peach Creek cul-de-sac. The camera focuses in on a stretch of road and it's
three occupants who are none other than Ed, Edd, and Eddy the stars of the show of the
same name).
Eddy: This scam is our best ever, we'll be chomping on jawbreakers in no time.
Edd: I don't like this Eddy, it's not right to play on peoples desires for your own
personal gain.
Eddy: Stuff a sock in it Double-D, here comes our first sucker (he sees Johnny walking
down the street. He quickly sidles up to him.) Hey there Johnny boy.
Johnny: Hey Eddy, what'cha doing?
Eddy: Well Johnny I've been hanging out with only the greatest hero on the planet.
Johnny: Wow really? Who?
Eddy: Why Superman of course. And he's here in the cul-de-sac!
Johnny: Wow did you hear that Plank? Superman is here. Can we meet him Eddy?
Eddy: You sure can Johnny, but it'll cost you, and Plank, a quarter.
(Johnny hands him two quarters)
Eddy: Okay Johnny boy now stay there, and prepare to be amazed (he rushes off, then
quickly rushes back) Okay, ladies and gentlemen, behold the Man of Steel, Superman!
(Suddenly in "flies" Ed, dressed in a stupid looking costume).
Ed: I am Superman, fear me mortals!
Johnny: Wow Plank there he is. Hey can you use your heat vision?
Eddy: Easy boy, he's just had a long flight from Metropolis, besides he charges extra
for tricks.
Johnny: Huh Plank? Plank says it's worth it (he gives Eddy another quarter).
Eddy: Okay little man, prepare to be amazed.(To Ed) Hey Superman why don't you use your
ice breath for the kid.
Johnny: Hey I said heat vision.
Eddy: Uhh Superman's heat vision got used up...umm...he forgot to pay his heat bill.
Johnny: Oh okay.
Ed: Snowcones are good.
(Up in the tree Ed is hanging from, Edd positions himself with a fire extinguisher)
Edd: The things I do for money.
Eddy: Okay Superman use your ice breath! (Edd turns on the fire extinguisher, the foam
covers Johnny)
Johnny: Cool, I'm covered with ice! Let's see Superman fly now.
Eddy: You're the customer, (he pushes Ed who swings back and forth)
Ed: I am soaring like a pigeon.
Edd: (offscreen voice) Eddy no, you don't know what...
Ed: I am flying guys.
Eddy: There you are Johnny, he's the real Man of Steel, so why don't you go fetch the
other kids in the cul-de-sac and tell...
(Suddenly Ed falls down, and lands right on top of Eddy. Edd, who was holding a rope,
is dragged down and lands on his friends).
Johnny: (angrily) You tricked me Eddy, you should be ashamed of yourself (he takes back
his coins).
Eddy: Hey gimme my money twerp!
(Ed meanwhile has recovered)
Ed: That was fun guys (looks at Johnny) Hello citizen may I rescue you?
Johnny: Nice try Ed, c'mon Plank let's go (he leaves)
Eddy: (getting up) I can't believe this, our scam failed, but how?
Edd: It could be due to the fact that Superman would never visit our cul-de-sac, and
wears a much better looking costume.
Eddy: You're right, it's all monobrow's fault.
Ed: (making "whoosh" noises) I am flying.
Eddy: Knock it off Bizzaro, c'mon let's go back to my house.
Ed: Me am Ed! (laughs) Ed want food.
Eddy: You'll want a doctor if you don't come on.
(Scene: Eddy's house, Ed, and Edd are lounging on the couch, while Eddy paces around).
Eddy: I can't believe it, we had Johnny fooled, but if that stupid pulley hadn't broken
we would be eating jawbreakers right now.
Edd: Eddy we don't know that the plan wouldn't have failed anyway. Ed isn't exactly the
perfect man of steel.
(Cut to Ed, who is chewing on a pillow)
Ed: Rrrrr I have you now pillow monster! (He shakes it violently, then falls off the
couch) I'm okay.
Eddy: (angrily) You'd better not have ruined that pillow Ed.
Edd: Perhaps some t.v. will take your mind off our problems Eddy.
(Suddenly Ed pops up)
Ed: T.V! (He grabs the remote and turns it on, there is a Sesame Street style
show A puppet bird is talking to a blue Elmo-like puppet in a spacesuit).
Bird: Silly Nemo don't you know that you can't fly into space.
Nemo: As long as I have my imagination, I can do anything.
Ed: Ohh maybe Nemo will go to the planet of the Sausage Men where he will be forced to
be a sacrifice to the god Wiener...
Eddy: Shut up Ed, now give me the remote (he struggles with Ed, each endd up grabbing
one end)
Ed: Ed want remote.
Eddy: It's mine lumpy
(As they struggle, the program quickly turns to news)
Reporter: We interrupt Cute Sappy World, for this special announcement. Recently Nick
icons SpongeBob SquarePants and Invader Zim have disappeared from their homes. A witness
for Mr. SpongeBob was quoted as saying, "who are you guys?" As of late there
have been no developments but police are searching for any leads. And now back to your
regularly scheduled program. (The show returns with the puppets doing an odd dance)
Ed: The happy dance! (He begins to imitate them)
Eddy: (grinning) Did you hear that Double-D?
Edd: I sure did, how awful for them.
Eddy: Are you insane, this is great. Those two are two of Nick's biggest stars, with
them out of the way our ratings will increase.
Edd: Eddy I'm disgusted with you, how can you find pleasure in the suffering of others?
Those poor toons could be anywhere and all you care about is ratings.
Eddy: Save your sympathy Double-D they're our competition. If they do better than we do
we're out of a job, do you want that?
Ed: I want a cookie.
Edd: No, but I still think it's wrong to celebrate the...
Eddy: Great, c'mon let's go to Cartoon Network Headquarters and see if the others are
as excited as I am (he runs out).
Edd: Oh my, I wonder where Mr. SpongeBob is?
(Scene: The submarine from the beginning sequence, moving through the water. It pulls
up to a rabbit-shaped island, then dives. It submerges inside a secret chamber within the
island, the hatch opens and the troops pile out with one of them holding Bob above his
SB: Wow a secret lair, this is like Mermaid Man episode 4 in which he is captured by
Eelman and taken to his secret...
Soldier #2: Shut up please, you've talked all the way here.
SB: Wow you small flipper beasts sure are odd. Say are you gonna feed to me your giant
fish god? Because I have to go to work on Monday and...
Soldier #2: That's it (he takes out a tazer and shocks Bob) There that should shut him
up. (They continue onward through a steel door marked "Top Secret: Authorized
Personnel Only". One enters a series of numbers and the door opens. Inside is a large
area filled with all manner of electronic devices. All the room is illuminated except for
a corner. The soldiers' take him to a large machine comprised of a computer and two large
glass globes. They insert him into one of the globes, In the other is Zim and GIR).
Zim: (banging on the glass) Let me out of here! I demand you release me this instant or
you face the wrath of the Irkian armada.
GIR: Look sir, a friend!
Zim: What? (He looks over) Oh no it's that blasted sponge creature; I can't stand him
or his incompetent starfish companion.
GIR: Hi Mr. sponge (he waves)
Zim: GIR, do not wave at him, you'll wake him up. Then he'll want to talk...to me.
Voice: Welcome, I hope you two enjoy your confinement, as you will be here for awhile.
Zim: Who said that? Show yourself!
(Suddenly the lights turn on over in a section of the room. There sitting at a table,
are Mojo Jojo, Hector Con Carne, Grim, and Mandark).
Mojo: Greeting Mr. Zim and Mr. SpongeBob. We have gone through much effort to bring you
here, to Hector's Caribbean base.
Hector: It's quite spacious, and has a good view of the sea.
Zim: What reason do you have for abducting Zim, you talking simian?
Mojo: I'll get to that, but first (he snaps his fingers, an aide pulls a lever on the
machine and water pours into Bob's bubble. His eyes slowly open).
Bob: Uhhh what happened? Last thing I remember I had this dream that Patrick and I were
jellyfishing and then I was grabbed by underwater pygmies and taken to a eerie secret
lab...(he looks around) Oh no it wasn't a dream! (He screams and tries to run away only to
slam into the bubble).
Mojo: Now that Bob is up we can explain our reason for your capture.
SB: (recovering) Uhh what happened? (Sees Mojo) Ahh a hairy creature! (He attempts to
run again with the same results).
Mojo: This is getting stupid, anyway I'm sure you're wondering why you're here so I
won't keep you in suspense. As you know you and the sponge are very popular.
Zim: Tell me something I don't know, all though the sponge's popularity is a mystery...
Mojo: Silence! There will be no more interruptions. The amount of interruptions will be
zero, no more interruptions will there be, interruptions will cease...
Zim: Enough! Jeez you blab more than GIR
GIR: Hey.
Mandark: Then let me continue, with you both gone your shows will not be competition
for ours on Friday night.
Hector: People who wish to watch cartoons will have to watch Cartoon Network, only to
find our new shows in place of thier favorites. But soon they'll be hooked and when our
popularity grows we'll soon edge out all the other cartoons.
Mandark: Then we'll sell their timeslots to our fellow villains for absorbinent amounts
of cash.
Mojo: Which we'll use as salaries for our shows. Then at last merchandising will be
mine (laughing). Mojo Jojo cups will at last become a reality.
Zim: A clever plan, one worthy of me. There's just one flaw.
Grim: And what's that?
Zim: No one would ever watch shows staring you pathetic losers! Now let me out of here
or prepare to face my lazer.
Mandark: You mean this lazer? (He pulls it out from behind him).
Zim: How did you?... (He feels his back, sure enough his pack is gone) Ahh my backpack,
it's gone!
Mojo: We knew you had all of your equipment in there so we removed it from you while
you were unconscious. Now you have no choice but to cooperate with us.
Zim: Never!
SB: (turns his head) Hey it's Zim, hi Zim.
Zim: Oh great, now the stupid sponge is talking.
SB: Hey Zim do you know where we are, or who those odd looking guys are. And why am I
in a bubble? Can you burn it with your lazer?
Zim: Shut up! You bumbling idiot, can't you see that we have been abducted so we can't
foil thier plan? We must escape as soon as possible.
SB: What's abducted mean? (Zim sighs and begins pounding on the glass).
Mojo: Yes please keep hitting the glass, you will find it is impossible to escape. It
is 15 inches thick and quite sturdy.
Hector: Face it you are trapped and will remain so until we can put our plan in motion.
SpongeBob: And then you'll let us go, right?
Grim: No, then I'm afraid we'll have to kill you.
(The villains laugh evily, as SpongeBob looks confused and Zim pounds his fists against
the glass. Fade in to the Cartoon Network commissary as seen in a commercial. Johnny
Bravo, Dexter, and Dee Dee are sitting at a table eating lunch, when the three Ed's come
Eddy: Hey guys, these seats taken?
Johnny: Nah help yourselves little Ed boys. Otherwise Carl is gonna get a seat and I
don't want him over here talking about all his scientific junk...
(The three Ed's sit down, Eddy turns and addresses the group)
Eddy: So did you guys hear that SpongeBob and Zim are missing.
Dexter: Yes, but I heard Zim was about to be cancelled anyway. It's quite unfortunate,
I enjoy that Dib fellow.
Dee Dee: Wait SpongeBob's gone? (Everyone nods their head, and she cries) SpongeBob's
gone, now I'll never get to see him and Patrick again!
Eddy: (to Dexter) What's her problem?
Dexter: She really likes that SpongeBob show, she watches it all the time.
Eddy: What's the deal? Don't you guys even care that they're our competition? You of
all people should be happy Dexter, you've still got a show.
Edd: That doesn't matter Eddy, they're still loved by many humans and toons alike. Why
even Ed here watches them both, don't you Ed?
(Cut to Ed, he is crying also)
Ed: Waaaaah! No more SpongeBob, no more Patrick, no more GIR! (He puts his head on
Edd's shoulders) How will I live without their words of wisdom?
Eddy: I think you'll manage.
Edd: There, there, Ed I'm sure the police are doing all they can to find them.
Johnny: Now I know who you're talking about. That's that funny sponge guy who works at
a fast food place and has that annoying squid for a neighbor. (Laughs) That guy and his
starfish friend are funny, don't like that squid guy much though. I'd like to punch him
(Everyone stares at him)
Johnny: What? He's annoying.
(The others return to their food, while Eddy slaps his forehead. Cut to Bikini Bottom,
and the huge treedome of southern squirrel Sandy Cheeks).
Sandy: Those police said they were looking fer SpongeBob and that alien guy, but I
don't think they can handle this job.
(Cut to Patrick, clad in his special water helmet, which he needs to survive in the
Patrick: What's happening?
Sandy: Well Patrick, I figure if we're gonna find SpongeBob, we'll have to do it
ourselves. Now from the accounts you've attempted to give me, in your own unique way, I
can deduce that SpongeBob was abducted by human scuba divers.
Patrick: I told you they were flipper pygmies!
Sandy: Don't be silly Patrick, there's no such thing as flipper pygmies. Besides, that
spear that you pulled outta yer head is definitely from a speargun, which could only be
used by humans. Now since we know humans are responsible, obviously SpongeBob is somewhere
on the surface. That's why I'm gonna give you my special suit, so you can survive out of
water, then you can go and find him.
Patrick: Why can't you go?
Sandy: Sorry but I got things to do down here. Besides, you saw the kidnappers, so you
can describe 'em, and it'll lead to a series of hilarious events involving you and any
other critters you happen to meet. (Takes what looks like a scuba suit and zips it up over
him) there ya go my special suit is ready, it's reinforced with special water jets so
it'll keep you moist while yer up on land. Good luck.
Patrick: Wait, how do I get to the surface?
Sandy: Just catch a passing hook, now off ya go.
(Patrick exits)
Patrick: (waving) Bye Sandy, I'll come back with SpongeBob. (He walks for a few minutes
then stops) What was I doing? (As he sits there scratching his head, a hook comes down
into the water) Oh boy! A hook! (He grabs it and it drags him against the ground) oow!!
(Then he's lifted above the water and into the eye of a bearded fisherman).
Fisherman: Oh it's just a starfish (he tosses Patrick away, and he flies through the
air and lands on the ground).
Patrick: Ooww that hurt! (Looks around, there are trees everywhere) This doesn't look
like Bikini Bottom (pause) Oh wait, I was supposed to go on land (looks around again) So
this is the surface? Cool, well I'd better find SpongeBob (he walks away, calling out
Bob's name)
(Cut to the outside of the Cartoon Network headquarters, the three Ed's are leaving)
Eddy: C'mon boys, let's head back to the cul-de-sac, we gotta come up with a new plan
to get jawbreakers.
Edd: I doubt anyone will trust us after our last little trick.
Ed: I am the man of stainless steel.
Eddy: Shut up Ed, (to Edd) and you Double-D, stop being so negative, this is my genius
we're dealing with here after all.
Edd: (sarcastically) Oh yes of course Eddy, your genius that has yielded us so many
successes in the past.
Eddy: Shut up sockhead, now hurry up, I wanna get back before the candy store closes.
(Cut to the cul-de-sac about 10 minutes later, the threesome is walking down the
street, while Eddy is trying to develop a new plan).
Eddy: Hmm how about a puppet show, nah that'd never work. I know I could... no lumpy
would surely ruin that. (Shouting and raising his arm) I've got it! We could get a bunch
of worthless objects and tell them that they're the newest fad from Japan. Kids would line
up to get 'em.
Edd: I doubt anyone would fall for that Eddy.
Eddy: Johnny would, (suddenly from offscreen, a crash is heard) what was that?
Ed: (embarrassed) Sorry I shouldn't have had that burrito.
Eddy: It wasn't you nitwit, come on (the three Ed's run down the street, stopping in
the front of Ed's house) Where'd it come from?
Edd: It sounded like it originated from behind Ed's house.
Ed: I think Sarah has found Mr. Mole.
Eddy: C'mon lumpy, let's see what your stupid sister's up to (they head into the
backyard, and all are dumbfounded by what they see)
Edd: Oh my
Eddy: What the?
Ed: Giant fish!
(Cut to what the Ed's are looking at, it is none other than Patrick Star, who is in
Ed's wading pool.)
Ed: Fish! (He runs forward and hugs Patrick) Can I keep him guys?
Edd: Please Ed don't touch that, you don't know where it's been.
Eddy: What is it?
Edd: It appears to be a giant starfish in a scuba suit.
Patrick: Hey what's going on? (Sees Ed) Ahhh human!
(Patrick screams at the two Ed's. They scream at him, and then Ed screams just because
everyone else is. This goes on for about a minute).
Edd: A talking starfish, ooh my this must be a dream brought on by bad cafeteria food.
Ed: It is no dream Double-D, this is Patrick from SpongeBob, my all time favorite show
in the world. He is my favorite character along with Squidward, Mr. Krabs, Sandy...
Edd: You mean this giant starfish fellow is from Nick.
Eddy: A Nick guy here? Quick hide him before someone sees him. (They rush into Ed's
house with Pat in tow. After closing the door and making sure the shades are closed, Eddy
approaches him). Alright pal why are you here?
Patrick: Was I delivering a pizza?
Ed: (laughing) He is as funny as he is on the show Eddy.
Eddy: Enough of this, (he begins to shake Patrick violently) Okay spill it, what are
you doing here? Are you a spy, answer me!!!
Edd: Please Eddy, he's a harmless sea creature, you'll bruise him.
Patrick: (shakily) Here...note...Sandy...said...give, (he hands Edd a note).
Edd: (Reading) "This is Patrick, he has come to find clues relating to the
disappearance of our friend SpongeBob. I have learned that he was abducted by humans, and
I have enclosed this note so that anyone he meets can help Pat find him. Ask to see the
spear, sincerely Sandy Cheeks" (to Patrick) Mr. Patrick may I please see the spear?
Patrick: Uhhhh.... okay (he reaches into his suit, and digs around ultimately producing
the spear) I think this is...that thing.
Eddy: He's got a weapon! It's network war! (He tackles Patrick and begins to slap him)
You (slap) rotten (slap) Nick (slap) stooge (slap). I'll get you, Viva Cartoon Network!
Patrick: Owww! Hey stop!
Edd: Please Eddy, you're overreacting, he's not here to start a war. This spear is a
clue to who abducted Mr. Bob.
Eddy: What? Lemme see (he grabs the note) Who the hell's Sandy?
Ed: Ooh I know, she's a Squirrel from Texas who lives in Bikini Bottom.
Eddy: Thanks Mr. useless knowledge. (To Patrick) So what's this have to do with
Patrick: What does what have to do with anything?
Eddy: The spear!
Patrick: What spear?
Eddy: (getting angry) I don't have time for this, Ed you try and talk to this weirdo.
Ed: Okay Eddy, (turns to Patrick) where did SpongeBob go?
Patrick: (frightened) He was abducted by flipper pygmies!
Ed: Oh no flipper pygmies! I saw them in the movie "The Monsters from the
Deep" (Both start screaming).
Eddy: Double-D please see if you can figure out what's going on here?
Edd: I'll try, Patrick could you please describe what happened when your friend was
captured by the (finger quoting) "flipper pygmies?"
Patrick: Ummm...... okay.
(And after Patrick's odd explanation...)
Patrick: And then while I was stuck to the tree, they took SpongeBob and carried him
off to their large fish god. He was my best friend, and now I'll never see him again
(begins crying).
Ed: That is so sad (also cries)
Edd: Hmm this does sound suspicious, Patrick could you describe the fish god?
Patrick: Umm it was long, and...uh... gray, yeah it was definitely gray.
Edd: Based on what you've told me, I can deduce that these flipper pygmies are actually
scuba divers, and their so-called "fish god" is actually a submarine.
Ed: I ate one of those once.
Edd: Not like the sandwich Ed. Whoever was responsible obviously has a submarine and
several divers in their employ.
Eddy: So what? That could be like a hundred people, screw this stupid starfish we don't
owe him anything.
Edd: No Eddy, he came here from his home asking for help. We can't just turn him down.
Eddy: Well what do you think we should do?
Edd: I say we help him.
Ed: Me too Eddy! I wanna meet SpongeBob!!
Eddy: (sighs) Alright if it'll get rid of him, but how do he find his friend we've got
few clues.
Edd: Well he's supplied me with this spear, I'll take it to my room and see what
evidence I can find on it.
Eddy: What about fish boy over there (points at Patrick) He'll stick out like a sore
thumb in the cul-de-sac.
Edd: I have an idea.
(Cut to the outside of Ed's house. Eddy peers his head out the door, then waves his
hand to signal "all clear." Edd follows, as does Ed pulling on the sleeve of a
coat. In a few seconds, Patrick comes on to the scene, dressed in a trenchcoat and hat.)
Eddy: This is stupid, someone's gonna see him.
Edd: These were the only reasonable clothes I could find in Ed's house. If anyone asks
he's Ed's cousin from Florida, who likes to play detective.
Eddy: Okay okay, let's just get going. (They continue down the street, ducking behind
trees and lampposts whenever possible)
(Cut to Cartoon Network Studios as the camera pans through a nearby window. A door to
an office is seen, but the words on it can't be read. Inside a shadowy figure sits at his
Man: (On the phone) Hello? Oh it's you guys, what? your pilots are almost completed?
Excellent fax 'em over. Huh? No, nobody here suspects a thing. Yeah it was difficult to
get those idiots to agree to air them but I eventually convinced them to try the new
shows.(Listening) Uh-huh, no everything will go as planned, okay bye. (He hangs up, then
begins to laugh maniacally. Half way through he begins to cough, so he takes out a glass
of water, downs it, and then continues).

Instead, pay for quite a few standard or specialist internet hosting, in which you do not need to put up with this.
So that you can host your own web site, you must have the infrastructure plus the income it requires. It could actually prove a good deal more expensive to you. You also need to know what you're doing. It is not simple as pie, and you must have the understanding to host your own website.

Almost at Sturgis
Our plan today was to get within shooting distance of Sturgis and we were successful. We travelled 352 miles to Ekalaka, Montana. The morning was spent getting to Billings. It was a bit cool, but sunny. We took the motorcycle to a car wash in Billings because it was just too dirty. Later in the day we took a detour on 25 miles of dirt road due to road construction. Now the bike is even dirtier. Just before arriving at Ekalaka, we toured Medicine Rocks State Park just north of here. Amazing rock formations. We should be at Sturgis by noon tomorrow. We are very excited!

Hey, I'm pretty sure your tickets were delivered today but nobody was there to collect them. I'll go to the post office in the morning to pick them up. Hopefully having a scan on your blackberry will be enough. Or are you hoping to print them somewhere?ReplyDelete
Let me know.
You need to put more pictures up. One a day isn't enough, especially once you get to Sturgis!ReplyDelete
Oh ya, and I'm not getting calls, messages or texts because my phone is broken. So the best way to get a hold of me is email.ReplyDelete

Tell us about your background. I grew up in Cincinnati, OH. I moved to Indiana and attended Taylor University which is where I met my wife, Beth. My first taste of homebuilding was as a framing carpenter. Then, when I was about 21 years old, a friend and I started to build custom homes on the south side of Indianapolis. I remember putting out directional signs on the weekends and opening my personal home as a model. We built several homes and eventually I went to work for a few different builders around Indianapolis. One of those builders had a project in southwest Florida called The Residences of Coconut Point where I was Director of Sales and Marketing. We lived in Naples for almost five years, then moved back to Indy. Prior to coming to Onyx+East, I worked in the senior living industry as a Director of Sales and Marketing for a large continuing care community here in Indianapolis.
What are your interests outside of work? I've been married for 19 years and I have three kids, ages 17, 15 and 14. Family is very important to me so I spend a lot of time with them.

Plenty Vaporizer by Storz & Bickel
Plenty Vaporizer by – Storz & Bickel
Storz & Bickel, the manufacturers of the top-rated Volcano Classic and Digit, have begun producing a portable model: the Plenty Vaporizer.
The Plenty vape measures 6.1 inches long by 2 inches wide by 8.86 inches high″ and weighs 1.5 pounds. While the Plenty is a portable vaporizer, it still relies on being plugged into a wall outlet for power. This approach has its pros and cons. The Plenty Vaporizer is easily transported anywhere; however, it cannot be used without access to an outlet. On the other hand, power and temperature regulation are not constrained by the limits of a battery. Bi-metallic regulators allow for independent temperature control and automatic shut-off, ensuring that the device operates safely by preventing the unit from overheating.
To use the Plenty Vaporizer, grab the base of the cooling coil and twist counter-clockwise to reveal the filling chamber. When loading your blend into the heating chamber, ensure you are utilizing a liquid pad for smaller quantities of dry aromatic plant material and obviously liquids essential oils as well. To use the liquid pad with a pinch of dry plant material, insert the plant material and simply rest the pad on top it. For more information on vaporizing liquids and oils, consult the "Liquid Pads" section in the manual.
Replace the chamber's lid to complete the process of loading the Plenty. Next, you'll want to adjust the temperature by rotating the temperature wheel to select your desired vaporizing temperature. The Plenty Vaporizer operates within a range of approximately 266°F to 395°F; equivalent to 130°C – 202°C.
Click the power switch on the side to activate the heating element. Once the device has been switched on, the control light located below the analog temperature display will begin to glow orange and remain on until the desired vaporizing temperature has been achieved. Reaching vaporizing temperatures takes anywhere from 2-3 minutes, assuming that it hasn't been warmed up.
Once the Plenty has fully heated, you're ready to begin drawing vapor through the cooling coil. After 90 seconds, the heating element can be reactivated easily by squeezing the trigger-like button beneath the handle. Once you've completed a cycle or two, you should have the process down and find yourself enjoying the efficiency of the Plenty vape.
If you have wanted a vaporizer and which is handheld capable of using both liquid essential oils as well as dry aromatic plant material and delivers high quality cool vapor and don't mind having to be near an outlet, then Plenty Vaporizer is a great fit. Plenty vaporizer comes with a three year manufacturer's warranty and is available at only authorized distributors.

Downloading is a must for busy and moving Netflix watchers, and Netflix just made it a whole lot easier for you to watch your favorite shows wherever you go.
Last Tuesday, Netflix officially introduced its new Smart Downloads feature for the mobile app, which is a quicker way for binge-watchers to get their favorite episodes on the go. Smart Downloads automatically deletes an episode after you finish watching it, and will immediately download the next episode after.
Netlfix released a short preview of the new Smart Downloads feature on YouTube.
Cameron Johnson, Director of Product Innovation for Netflix, said that the Smart Downloads is made to bring binge-watchers faster to the next episode.
"We know how annoying it can be to go through all your apps and delete files you no longer need; we also understand that when it comes to Netflix, the faster you can get to the next episode you want to watch, the better," said Johnson.
Smart Downloads is an optional feature, which means that users can choose if they want to enable it.
The new feature is currently available on Android phones and tablets.
