you've been waiting for that moment for weeks haven't you.

And now you'll have that song in your head for the rest of the day. And so will everyone who reads it. And you will all whistle just one verse and all your workmates will be infected. And they will go home whistling it to their partner. The butterfly effect takes hold. It makes it way after some months to a fledgling artist who covers it and it is released to the masses. It gets plugged by your favorite station for many weeks and you will love what they have done with it. You'll then blow your kids minds with your knowledge of the latest music by whistling the tune and knowing all the words...

Does anyone else count passing satellites when they are out camping?

17 is our highest count for one evening and that was sat in the State Forest at Coopernook on the way home from collecting Castrol in February

Was that one satellite seventeen time or seventeen different satellites?

Do you get more or less points for repeats?

Cheers
Simon

VladTepes
24th May 2007, 11:36 AM
Sure. Not all satellites are heostationary and the ones that aren't have varying orbital heights (and therefore times) depending on what the satellites are there for.



Does that sound sufficiently accurate ?


I hope so coz I just made it up !

abaddonxi
24th May 2007, 12:04 PM

what page 500 Ive only got 126.... you got a long way to go yet, just past 1/4 way.... wonder if its going to go like a tank of diesel out of a deefer, the first 1/4 takes ages and then it gets progressively quicker till you hit empty...

ever wonder why they dont do that the other way around make the first 1/4 go really quick and then have each sucessive quater last longer.

sort of like watching a one sided football game really the first quater goes quick the others just draggg and slooowww untiiilllll iiittt seeemmms liiikkkeee tiiimeee hasss stopped....

Bow down to my authority
Worship me like the God that I am

Hmmm take the red tablet now Mick and its time for you to go night night


Mick, I think you may have the fever, better take the blue pill today.

The stars, and names kick in at a certain number of posts that you have made, however I have no idea what each of the steps are.

Maybe one of the mods could tell us?


what!

and take all the mystery out of it .... sheesh :!:

Cul, you will be glad to know that I just made 50 posts and got another star.

You only got about 12 to go...

I reckon I probably got at least another 50.....

It's a long road we walk.


seesh ! red star envy !

poor poor timmo, you need to get a grip!

obviously a single GOLD star,,,

Well done to One_iota and VladTepes on joining the coveted red star club......


Know the feeling Vlad. I'm booked in for therapy/counselling. Its one thing to have a LR obsession but this red star thing is quite a worrying matter.

It is actually....Blur's sixth album released in 1999

Pedro_The_Swift
21st July 2007, 11:58 AM
:eek::eek:

13 is the sixth album (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Album) by English (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England) rock band (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_band) Blur (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blur_%28band%29), released in March (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March) 1999 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999). The album peaked at #1 in the UK Albums Chart (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Albums_Chart), while only charting at #80 in the Billboard 200 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billboard_200) (U.S.). It also spawned three hit singles: "Tender (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tender_%28song%29)", "Coffee & TV (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee_%26_TV)" and "No Distance Left to Run (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Distance_Left_to_Run)". 13 sees the band moving further away from their Britpop (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Britpop) past into more cerebral and denser musical territory. The album is inspired by Damon Albarn (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damon_Albarn)'s breakup with Elastica (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastica_%28band%29) singer Justine Frischmann (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justine_Frischmann), reportedly caused by the latter's heroin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroin) addiction. Two of the singles - "Tender (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tender_%28song%29)" and "No Distance Left to Run (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Distance_Left_to_Run)" describe Albarn's love for Frischmann. The music video for the hit single "Coffee & TV (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee_%26_TV)" cemented Blur's reputation as a cult band in the U.S. with its protagonist Milky. The video gained heavy airplay on many modern rock channels in America.
In 2004, the album was packaged with 2003's Think Tank (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Think_Tank_%28album%29) in a limited edition box set (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_set) as part of EMI (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMI)'s "2CD Originals" collection.

well mine is actually on page 252,it all depends on your settings as to how many posts per page is viewed,somewhere in the settings section in the numerous tabs to chose from up above ,is a place where you can choose either number of posts per page per view,may be ten or fifteen or twenty viewed at a time,so that then determines the page number that you are viewing,make sense?????:confused:
