The monthly random thread sashays into its final installment as Bo contemplates whether hems taste better with a dip.
(Users’ Manual: Obey The Rules. Consult The Guide. Have fun!)
Patience, Please
This site is under reconstruction and will look strange for a while. We regret the inconvenience.
Very nice picture! The pink sky reminds me a bit of Mars. But then, I’ve got Mars on the brain right now.
Dang, that picture’s as good as the last two! Funny, but why did Bo even consider trying the hem without dip. Dip makes almost everything better.
(Second post? I would have gotten 1st if I had come here sooner, instead of playing games. Oh, well.)
I like the picture! It does look like Mars, and Aeiou’s bow is great. I’m wondering if Chad and Bo what they’ve stepped into though.
All the sophomores in my school had to take a random state field test today in both history and math, and because it didn’t count most kids didn’t really try, but I ended up writing three pages for my essay question. I used some info from Hypatia’s history of Islam post on the religions thread! And then I went on a (small) rant about liberation theology. So I had a pretty good day, missing three periods to just write.
What an utterly flamablamablous picture!
3- *feels useful* Sounds good…
I love the picture.
There was no feather is this month’s random threads.
has anyone heard of me? I don’t actually exist. I am a professor of psychoceramics (the study of cracked pots) at Brown.
(look him up on google, he doesn’t actually exist though he’s won an Ig Nobel Prize… -oxlin)
7-Ah yes! Will you be attending his lecture on Friday 13th? That editorial he published in the April 1st edition of Brown Daily Herald was fascinating. I’m sorry to have missed the lecture on “Archaic Greek Architectural Revetments in Connection with Ionian Philology” as it must have been delightful, coming, as it does, from such an erudite faculty member! ; )
Hey. Sorry for barely posting anymore, Mom’s feeling whacky.
Lovely picture, by the way.
Love the pic
Great picture!!!!!
Hi. I haven’t been on in a while.
I like the picture.
11 days of school left woooo!!!
I haven’t been on the computer much recently, and when I have it’s been mostly in tech class and I’ve been going on a non-Neopets pet site.
I want summer nowwww!
I’m going to Santa Barbara! And now I have a swimsuit, which is nice.
And we had a rehearsal today and besides the fact that my shoes were killing my feet, it went well.
See ya!
Chad looks rather bemused and/or surprised, I wonder why? Is it because of the dance move he and AEIOU are trying out? Anyway, it’s a lovely picture, congrats again, Lady B.
9- That’s too bad.
Sorry that I’m not in the posting mood. I’m feeling whacky.
I’m ALWAYS wacky!!! Heavens, you haven’t figured that out yet?!
I love the pictures for all the random threads! Chad looks so surprised…
I want to see the Telectroscope.
I also suggest you people try the spicy chocolate cookies on Pollyhymnia’s website.
15 – I’m rarely in a posting mood lately.
me neather.
Hee hee! Good pic!
18) Spicy chocolate chip?
Yahoooooooooo! It’s a long weekend! I LOVE long weekends!
*sigh* The school year is almost over. Exams start 2 weeks from now.
My sister is graduating this year, so she’s going to be leaving for colledge after the summer. It’s going to FAST! 
OK, this is super random, but can we have a thread for Chuck Norris jokes? They’re all the rage at my school and I’ve got a brain full of them that I need to empty out.
Hi peoples!
I haven’t exactly been in a posting mood, but I haven’t had a chance. It seems either I’m busy or the computer is busy!
WOW!!!! I hadn’t even been paying attention, but I only have ten more days of school left!
16-More than me?
Oh, while I’m thinking of it: I gave you 100 piepoints somewhere some time back, and I don’t know if you realize that. If you want them they are still yours! 
Red-tailed HAWK
22-*responding to post that wasn’t there before*
I would suggest you either don’t or do but use the jokes thread. The great pie war resulted from the CN versus Watership Down argument, as I recall, and a thread about one could lead to problems.
Red-tailed HAWK
24–Wow, I didn’t know we had a jokes thread. Thanks!
Ah, what a beautiful picture!
If the sky was a bit more orange, it would be a perfect picture of Titan!
*sighs*
I’m too obssessed with Titan!
Hello! I wasn’t on today because I was at Clarissas.
And now I’ve gotta go check out the Fanfictions thread.
See ya!
Hmmm. I’m considernig coloring the tips of my hair. Hot pink. *grins evily*
Who’s ready for finals? 10 days and counting down!
I’m moving. Across the Atlantic. 4584 miles. In under ten weeks. To Spokane.
23~ Oh, thanks! I remember you offering them, but I don’t remember actually receiving them….I’ll add them to my name. Oh, and yes, you are perfectly normal in comparison to me!
28~ Washable markers work very well, if you want to just try it and see if you like the look. I put a piece of paper under the hair and then do it in little clumps.
30~ Wow. I’ve never moved, but I imagine it would be hard. On the other hand though, you’re moving to known MBer area!
28–I’m totally doing that! Except I can’t decide between pink and red. And I think I’ll do streaks, instead of just the tips.
30 – That news makes me both sad and happy. On one hand, I know how hard moving can be. On the other hand, it will be great to have another MuseBlog in the area.

28- I’m doing mine purple when school starts.
and u know it.
i luvs the pic, too!

35-39- HPBs are villians who bunnyfiy humans.
Is it just my computer, or has MuseBlog been really slow lately?
35- I see you haven’t visited the Buny Apocalypse. I’ve spent more time unconcious than concious because of those miscolored freaks.
41- Yeah, I know what you mean, it’s been happening to me too. Any ideas on what it could be, GAPAs?
25-No problem, glad to help!
28-*Gulp*
30-Wow! Well, moving is surely hard, but hopefully the bloggers who live around there will make it a little better!
32-Hmmm. Well, I think I won’t even begin on that one.
34-Hmmm. Well, I think I won’t even begin on that one. *Robot voice*
35-39-Are you new? If so, welcome! I feel I must mention to you that sending in posts in a row like that is not considered good, as it takes up a lot of space and such.
Red-tailed HAWK
(41, 42) My connection was really slow for a while, but it turned out to be a problem with the local service provider. Since that was fixed, it seems normal to me.
43- I think she was Sarcastic.
or where you beening Sarcastic back?
43- RtH! You’re late for your wedding!
47-No, it’s been postponed to the first of June, I believe. MissSwann will be very mad (
), if you’re not there then, I bet!
She does seem to have a temper.
Back from China!
wandering round the house in a sort of daze….like…totally…excitemant over…back to reality!!
Soooooo cooooool! way cooler than Little old New Zealand! Beijing has 4 times the pop. of the whole of New Zealand (NZ is 4mill pop.) so scary but awesome!
Me and Jo got lost in Xian and Noone noticed even though we were gone for like 3 hours! so sad cos all we wanted was some good Western McDonalds to give us a break from all the rice!
well….Social Studies hmwk now…
see y’all later
Sam
43, 33, 31 – My feelings are mixed also. I kind of want to move (so that I can be near bloggers!) because I don’t really like the town I live in, but I don’t want to leave my friends. I get to have some fun though – my family is travelling all over Europe for three months – like a last bash. I’m missing two months of school then. Then we’re going to stay with my grandma in Spokane at least until after Christmas – so no school during that time either! Then we have to find a house… And I’ll either start school or be homeschooled for the rest of that year.
IBCF and Cat’s Meow – what grades are you in?
Happy Towel Day!
(it is Towel Day today, no?)
*wanders off in search of towel*
51 – I’m in 7th grade. 8th grade by the time you get here, though. And I know exactly what you mean. I moved to Spokane in the middle of 4th grade, and it was really, really hard to leave all of my friends. I only stayed at that school for 4 months, though, and then I moved to my current school, and now I love my current school. ^^
Speaking of loving school, this is one of the few times in my life where I’ve actually wished it was a school day instead of the weekend. o.O;; I’m really loving school lately, which I guess is a good thing, but it makes a long weekend feel like torture.
30- Oh, my.
I, too, have mixed feelings.
On one hand, you’re now 4584 miles closer.
On the other hand, you’re still eight hours’ drive away.
I don’t have much to say right now. By tomorrow night I’m sure I’ll have written a page-long summary of my vacation, but right now I’m going to go do my homework.
Nice picture – I think I just found my new wallpaper. It puts me in a happy posting mood.
I keep saying “I’m back” and then all these things happen to keep me offline…gah, how is it that in just one year so much more comes up? I don’t even want to think about how busy senior year will be.
15-16- Wackiness makes the world go round!
28 – Sweet! I thought about doing mine maroon, but I don’t think it would show up very well since my hair is already dark.
29 – I wasn’t ready…I’m just glad to be getting them out of the way at this point! Summer here we come!
30 – I can’t say I know how you feel because I’ve never made such a drastic move (although I’ll have to fairly soon if I go to college abroad right out of high school), but if it’s any consolation, Washington is definitely one of the better states to move to. Be very glad you’re not going to be in the midwest/south (which one is Kentucky? Louisvilleians say midwest, but everybody else says southern) – it’s going to get really humid here soon.
41 – I’ve had problems too, but then again my computer is on the brink of collapse.
50 – Do you live in NZ normally? I visited there once for a few days and loved it…would definitely go back if I could.
52 – According to Facebook, it is. There’s a Beatles festival going on in town today…perfect time to go flaunt a towel!
51- Ninth.
*sings* ♫ When the moon hits your eye like a big cherry pie, that’s a muser… ♫
No posts have gone in for 5 1/2 hours. -worries-
And the blog is taking an abnormally long time to load pages, and it keeps giving me weird error messages.
-memorizes back-up MuseBlog’s link just in case-
I can’t see any other comments.
What has happened?!?!?!?!
Ah. Never mind. Sorry for the double post.
Oh boy. The Recent Comments sidebar is down again.
Is that what was causing the slowiness?
Wait, it’s back now.
Happy Towel Day, people! Unlike what I did for previous rocket launches and touchdowns, I will keep my Phoenix commentary on the Space thread.
Phoenix has risen from the ashes of the 1998 Mars Polar Lander failure!
Has any one seen paul?
This is my favorite this month…
I think.
Where’s the hem, though? It looks to me as if Bo is eating a bow.
*waves feebly* I’m back…
Santa Barbara is a very lovely, historic, and extremely expensive place.
I have flip-flops.
It’s 11:53:23 PM.
Good night.
53- Hey! I might be in the same grade as you! Do you go to a “normal” (because I always get confused as to whether a normal school is state, public, or other) school?
54- Ah, yes… But my other grandma is in Oregon… By the coast… I can convince my parents to stop somewhere where we can meet.
Everyone- Thank you for your sympathy. I’m a bit nervous, but it’s my fourth move, so I’m used to it by now. (Or I should be. I’m not, though)
LB-i was looking through some random pics i had saved and decided that you need to start a cafepress shop. like, now. kthxbai
also hello museblog! it’s been a while. hopefully i’ll have more time (/inclination) to get on this summer
(64) We haven’t seen Paul lately, either. It’s peak performing season, so he’s probably busy with shawms and sackbuts and hautboys and things.
(69) Thanks, ebeth! I appreciate the encouragement. That has definitely been on my agenda for awhile now…along with many other items. Meanwhile, I’m working on new items for Musery Loves Company, which I hope to get done in the next couple of days.
(66) A bow of those proportions might well have a hem.
70- And Things.
66- Bo eating a bow, see?
HELLO, EVERYONE!
I flew for the first time on Friday. The plane wasn’t more crowded than I expected, and I got through security without being stopped, thank goodness. But gosh, airports are crowded! And super expensive! On the return flight we brought a (sealed) bag of popcorn, which was good. But it still cost about two dollars for a bottle of water.
It’s a very odd sensation, flying, sort of like your head is about to explode, and not entirely pleasant. But the view from a plane is absolutely amazing. I thought about Musers a lot on the way down, like while I was flying over Northern California and my mom was trying to locate where we lived before, I was thinking about POSOC and E2MB, and whether I was flying over them at that very moment. And then we stopped in San Francisco to transfer flights, and I was trying to get online to tell emmatheduck I was in San Francisco, but of course the airport WiFi isn’t free at all.
We went to the Presidio, which was super cool, and the Botanic Gardens, ditto. And I got a pair of flip-flops which are actually cool, and swam a lot because the motel had a pool.
And we wandered up and down State Street and looked at expensive things in expensive stores, and Mother bought a little thing of lip balm for EIGHT DOLLARS.
We also went to a very nice furniture shop where everything was made out of teak, and ate delicious sandwiches and sat around in a book shop.
And of course there was the play. It was very funny, a little sad, and extremely bizarre. And it was a musical. I liked it a lot, and I met, for the second time, a friend of my grandfather. She is my age and we have a lot in common, such as being Shakespeare fanatics and both liking Lord of the Flies.
And I am probably going to fly down alone in October, to go to the World Shakespeare Festival.
68- Oh, good. Cinnamoon, I know it’s the wrong season, but you really ought to go to the NaNo site…
74 – I like riding airplanes. I rode my first one at age 2 weeks (give or take a few days).
Has anyone here ever ridden first-class on a 747 on the top deck??? *drools*
74- I have relatives in Santa Barbara! It is a pretty place indeed. (GAPAs, I dunno if having relatives there is enough to be snipped, I suppose one could just say I’d been there before as I have but rather more times than one would on average vacations.) I’m glad you enjoyed it, Alice!
My favorite airplane ride was first class on an Air Bus. It was so big you couldn’t see the back from the front (where I was) and it was UM so I could eat all the snacks I wanted and watch six hours of TV.
Very, very, very awesomeness.
I just realized something-the pic doesn’t make any sense!
I don’t think Chad and Aeiou ever took dance class…
74-I lovelovelove flying! But I don’t love the pricey airport stuff.
I’ve never been in first class. Awww.
It’s really warm and humid here, and I want it to be summer now. There shouldn’t be any school when the weather is this good.
I hate English.
Not the class, mind you. The language.
Nothing is spelled the way it is pronounced, and vice versa. I read a lot, so I learn a lot of words that way, but then when I try to say them I always mess up the pronunciation. Even on words like “subtly”…
74- Fun! I fly a lot, so it’s just boring for me.
So here’s Jadestone’s Life Update for the Weekend since I’ve been lazy and not really posting lately and lurking instead. I have fully matured into an oldtimer it seems.
– No school cause of Memorial day, woo
– On friday night/saturday morn I went to B’s anti-prom. It was fun, hung out around a bonfire then stayed up late, even though I had to leave early in the morn
– Went to a jewelry show on saturday, it was amazing… so many sparkling colors for tables and tables and tables, it’s so pretty. And I got a lot of awesome presents and stuff for myself cheap!
– Iza’s b-day party yesterday was fun too, and I think I like the polish happy birthday song a lot more than the American one, ours sounds like a funeral dirge in comparison. Plus I carried my towel with me around it ^^
– Memorial Day parade today, played in it for band, it was hotttttt in our uniforms and went on for far to long. And now I am sunburned
– Afterwards me and a few friends hung out at a ice cream/donut shop, then walked to the park and sat on the swingset. And me and my friend JB taught Mel how to climb a tree, which is always fun ^^
– Not a lot of homework left besides studying for that math test tomorrow… eep
– Best weekend I’ve had in a long time, I think I even spent more time with my one friend who was at everything I was than I have with my family XD
Ahh!
Look up the Birthday Masacre’s album art. The
s have infiltrated the minds of record companys artists!
I sent the GAPAs a link that they can post (if they’d like) if you’re to lazy to look it up on your own.
[[Ooh, bad HTML there. *blows horn, summoning Smiley Gnomes*]]
‘I think the real secret to having adventures is being able to recognize them. We’re surrounded by the possibilities and most people seem to walk right past without noticing.’- Rebecca
Rebecca, you said this on the old song lyrics thread, post 216. May I use it as a quote?
Well, I am back and my name is normal. What do you know, miracles happen.

well, unfortunately my IPA skillz are lacking, I suppose.
(85) Why, of course, thank you. I feel honored to be quoted.
(83) Here’s the image:
88- Whoa. Creeeeeeeeepy. Those bunnies just won’t leave us alone.
86) penty my boy long tyme no see. well actually that’s a lie I’ve never seen you
OR HAVE IWhen does everyone get out of school? I’m out the 12th of June. argh I can’t wait…I haven’t received my summer AP US assignment yet so right now I can still live a lie and believe that I won’t have a summer of misery and woe
90- I also get out on the 12th. Or the 13th. It doesn’t matter, ’cause if we have school the 13th I’m not going.
I’m out the 11th tee hee! Plus, the 11th is basically a free day! It’s finals week that week, and 7th and 8th period is on the 11th. I have orchestra 7th and 8th period! Maybe we’ll have cake! Or go to the park!
My finals start on a Friday the Thirteenth. *doom doom doom doom doom doom* XD And then I get out the 18th.
I get out on the 26th. Then I’m off to Space Camp the next day.
I had better avoid this thread for the next few months. I get out on the 25th. Of July.
I got out on the 13th. Of May. Please don’t kill me.
26th of June, that is.
Yesterday and part of today, the blog pulled up, “not found.” I COULDN’T GET ONTO THE BLOG!!!!
Oh it is back up. ^^ Whee. GLad to have old MB back, as always. *nostalgia*
Yes, this is nice.
Back up, but without the Recent Comments bar.
Oh, well, we can do without it. Nice to have the blog back.
Its 10:30 in my area, and I only just returned from a friend’s house where I was cramming for a project due tomorrow. 77 *(^(*&^ SLIDES ON POWERPOINT! Gahr…
Okay, half a French final and half an English final down. LOTS to go!
A Muse Academy Student Lounge continuation thread might be nice. Some very academic and erudite (so not being ironic) interactions involving stale pie were taking place and it seems a shame to break ’em off.
Ahh, the blog is back!
I actually enjoyed the time on Muse Academy, because it seemed so much smaller and quieter. Much fewer threads to keep track of.
I get out May 30th.
and 86- hiya pent-tay.
(103) It is pleasant, isn’t it? You may, of course, post on it whenever you like, though we probably won’t moderate it as often as we moderate MB.
96- *kills*
Yay! MuseBlog is back! MuseBlog is back!
School is out. Finals are over. I am back on the blog.
It is wonderful not to have anything to do. All I have to do is babysit my siblings, and go to Library volunteer training tonight.
Ah well…
Goes off and watching old TV shows.
So, in Frosh Trans every day, Mrs. O puts a quote on the board, and we are supposed to “interpret” it as we see fit. The whole thing is utterly nonsensical, but yesterday I found a story stemming from mine. It had nothing to do with the quote, luckily, but it seemed quite promising. Unfortunately, there is a time limit so I didn’t get very far at all.
In Spanish we’re doing skits, and N was typing up our script when J, who was sitting next to him and failing to turn on his computer, decided that N must have the magic touch and asked him to press a particular button for him. N misinterpreted, pressed the wrong button, and turned off his computer, on which he was typing the script.
He had not pressed save.
We’re BACK! Hooray!
110- I know what you mean. Conspiracy Wars grew out of a ten-minute writing exercise at Screenwriting Camp back in October.
Yes! You’re back! I was so worried last night! Museblog didn’t come up!
Anyway, I am now officially done with my online course, so, now, I can back regularly again!
Hallo.
We watched the Global Warming Swindle (provided by moi, thank you very much) in GT today. People who’ve been fed Global Warming all their lives are already “split down the middle, but leaning toward it being a fraud” within twenty minutes of the movie.
Robert (106): Recently it just seems like the blog has been mostly RPGs, and I can’t really keep up with any of them so it makes the blog seem really busy.
Ah MB is back!
It wasn’t for the past couple of days. I was scared. Or was it just yesterday?
Huzzah! Museblog wasn’t as much fun without the recent comment bar. It made me feel all alone. And blue. So I am mucho glad that it is once again alive and kicking.
115 – The blog’s not mostly RPG’s, it’s just that the RP fans are very zealous about their threads, so there is more posting on those few threads than on others, which are frequented by those who prefer a more leisurely pace.
groundhog (118): Yes, I know that it’s not mostly RPGs, it just *seems* like it, since the majority of the posts are there. They have just sort of exploded lately, because I don’t think we really had any RPGs before. There isn’t anything wrong with that, I was just commenting…
I’m off to graduate!!!!!!
120-Have a good time and remember, “This is not the end, this is not even the beginning of the end, but it may be the end of the beginning!” (Winston Churchill after German victory, which plummeted Allie moral).
114) You can’t possibly tell me our presence on the planet leaves no effect. Other points you want to make are fine, but I cannot believe something like that.
I don’t understand the point of that either. Isn’t it good we’re all trying to change our levels of pollution and waste…?
I read up on it on Wikipedia and let me say that there are interesting points but it seems like there’s definite fact smudging.
“In a BBC interview about this study, Lockwood commented on the graphs shown in the documentary:
All the graphs they showed stopped in about 1980, and I knew why, because things diverged after that … You can’t just ignore bits of data that you do not like.”
Some of the people interviewd have expressed disagreement with how their comments were displayed
“”In the part of The Great Climate Change Swindle where I am describing the fact that the ocean tends to expel carbon dioxide where it is warm, and to absorb it where it is cold, my intent was to explain that warming the ocean could be dangerous—because it is such a gigantic reservoir of carbon. By its placement in the film, it appears that I am saying that since carbon dioxide exists in the ocean in such large quantities, human influence must not be very important—diametrically opposite to the point I was making—which is that global warming is both real and threatening.”
But then, I’ve just been fed lies my whole life, apparently.
alright so I apologize upon review if my above comment is kind of mean. really though, that’s what I think, I don’t mean to argue with you, I just feel strongly about this and feel a little insulted being told that I’ve been fed lies my whole life. That’s not the way to get your point across..insult is not the best way to get one’s point across, as I’m sure you know, being or opposite view on this topic.
The play opens tonight at seven. I’m not quite to melting point yet, but almost. The dress rehearsal went really well, so I don’t know what I’m worried about.
Well, see you all tonight!
I’m now a… middle-schooler. Rather strange, as I’m leaving people who I’ve known all my twelve years…
wait…………how many may pics have there been so far? urania-koko-unhemming was the other one, and this one…was there anything else?
126- 3 pictures.
122- Well said!
126- There was one with Pwt in tartan, Koko in hat and cloak, and Mimi in Snow White’s dress.
Speller73! I saw you on TV! OMG! Hehe.
I just made tie = belt. Pwnage!
128-oh! i remember that one!
maybe the first was my favorite. but this one looks sweet.
Hi everyone, I’m alive still!
The internet expired and I was thrown mercilously from my beloved MuseBlog, but I have returned!!! For the next two minutes at least……a phone call, a memorial service and the arrival of new shoes (not precisely in that order) have delayed our visit to the library, and so I only have a few minutes of computer time before I have to go…..EEP!
So, what’s been going on?
Well, we had to migrate to museacademy.wordpress.com for a couple of days because of technical glitches here. Were you around for that? And now speller73 is one of 12 finalists competing tonight in the National Spelling Bee. I’m having lunch with her and her parents tomorrow. Meanwhile, POSOC and some of the gang have started a new Paker game in the student lounge.
oh no!! i haven’t posted in AGES!!
what have i missed? a lot, i assume. blargh. end of the school year = term paper, which happens to be very time consuming.
Hello.
I haven’t been on in a while.
There is a global warming thread, please take it there. *nagnag*
I get out of school June 11.
I go on vacation June 17. Peru Kokon anyone?
I’m glad school is almost over, the near hatred toward certain teachers is about to become unbridled fury and likely rampage. Hopefully these last few days will be fast enough.
122-Being “green” is suddenly cool, and therfore there’s a lot of stuff circulating that’s absolutly abusrd. People have been ranted to about Global Warming and haven’t had any time to research the “facts” by themselves. They think that they can make up for this by the fact that there’s 2500 some scientists who believe in Global Warming, but the list of real scientists was so small that they had to incorperate almost any government official who thought Global Warming was real. I think before anyone makes any descisions about the movie, they should WATCH it first.
(These people aren’t like MuseBloggers, I’m talking about my GT class who is extremely narrow minded, homophobic, and most of them spell worse than I do. Which is sad, because I spell pretty badly.
I ran out of space. Sorry.
122(continued)- It’s good that we’re trying to change our levels of pollution and waste. That’s not just good, it’s amazing. And pollution is pretty bad for our planet. But the so-called cause of Global Warming (man-made or otherwise) has almost nothing to do with the atmosphere. You can’t tell me that six billion people can do HALF of what the Sun (the real causer of Global Warming and cooling and everything else) and oh GRR I’ve ran out of space again. PLEASE excuse the triple post.
Okay. I’m going to stop pouding on the keyboard and continue.
Going on: You can’t tell me that six billion people can do half of what the Sun can do to our planet. Compared to the Sun, we’re insignificant. We can do almost nothing that it can’t undo, or prevent. The graphs in the movie prove that CO2 emmisions FOLLOW global temperature, not vice versa.
I don’t want to be angry with you, so I’m not going to say anything.
On a really random note, the ESP game that Muse talked about a while ago was moved to another site that has other games.
it’s called gwap. com (GAPAs you can snip that)
*wanders off*
[The site looks mostly harmless. Approved. –Admin.]
135-137) I agree that the whole green movement is for the most part superficial and status related, that’s for sure. While I do still respectfully disagree with you, I’m really glad that you can present your idea like a sane human being…it is definitely something that should be open to broader discussion. It’s a very pertinent topic for our generation (whether one believes or not) and therefore we SHOULD educate yourselves as you say, and not simply draw our conclusions from the mass media.
OH MY GOODNESS THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN!!!!! *jumps up and down with excitement/happiness/after-production-thrill*
I was a little nervous at the very beginning ’cause I thought I would forget all my lines, but I didn’t forget any!!! And the crying was even a little more real ’cause I was scared it was going to be awful!!! And then we were on a roll until the end, when L said the wrong line during our word association bit and we jumped all over the place until A finally took it upon herself to end it, after which the play proceeded smoothly for the next minute when it ended. Now at the end, the lights all fade down on K, who walks to the front of the stage and says, “As it was in the past, the future lies in eggs,” which, of course, is the entire point of the play (but not the most important line, which is “You can always go to the fireworks displays”). The lights faded down all right, and K walked to the front of the stage like he should, and he said, “As it was in the future, the past lies in eggs. Yeah. That’s right.” And as we exited C stepped in the mashed potatoes.
*stifles laughter*
I LOVED IT!!!!!! Plus a lot of our eggs broke open, revealing the easter-colored insides.
*yells and sings with joy*
Congratulations, Alice!
(141) Yay, Alice! What a great night!
Your story reminds me of a play I stage managed in high school. During the performance, the actor playing the butler said to the cook: “Go to your dinner or the kitchen will be spoiled!” I’m glad I was safely backstage.
142- Thanks!
The audience was great, too; they were laughing from the very beginning, and R and S came, which was very cool and completely unexpected.
My hair is sticky and my eyes look frightening with all the makeup, and I am exquisitely happy.
I think I did really well in this one, too, and I was fully conscious as opposed to half-blinded and stumbling through by sheer muscle memory.
OHMIGOSH, and guess what? I got nominated for Vice President of the Thespians club!
/ 
Of course, the likelihood of my getting the position is slim, but STILL!!!
*dances with happiness on all levels*
I’m going to go wash off my makeup now!
143- Haha, that’s funny. Ours was absurdism, luckily, or missing lines would have been more serious.
But I’m SO happy it didn’t ruin my night!
Beavo and Axa: The only way we can really know if there’s global warming is if we check it out ourselves. The whole thing is so emeshed in politics that you can’t figure out who’s telling the truth.
Some of us say: Global warming is real and the U.S. isn’t doing anything about it while everyone else is so we’re a terrible, terrible country.
Others say: Global warming is just a big hoax and it would be too expensive to reduce our carbon emissions so let’s not pay any attention to it.
And then others say: Yes, there is global warming, but our carbon emissions aren’t what’s causing it.
The scientists say: Hey, I’ve done scientific research and found out that–*guns are pointed at head* –that…we…need to do more research…goodbye…
Scientists have guns pointed at their heads? What?
Great job, Alice!
146- And some of us say global warming is real but since I like to stay neutral on the subject of the US I’ll just go over here to this nice carpool.
148- Thanks!
The next play is going to be Number the Stars, and then How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying. I hope to get a part in NTS and tech for HTSIBWRT (since it’s a musical and I can’t sing).
147- Well, maybe not guns, but they’re quickly shut up.
Why is this suddenly about global warming?
141-Totally absolutely flam, Alice! Sounds *sob* beautiful… ; )
144-Good luck with the elections! Can we virtually rig ’em?
149- I know what you mean. I love acting, but can’t sing to save my life (as I am constantly reminded by the people in whose ears I bleat ; ) ).
RE: All Global Warming and politics
I agree very strongly with the objection that global warming is being turned into a political issue, rather than a scientific one (hence, since such and such politician that I support says something about global warming I will agree with him very loudly at dinner parties and try to shout down anyone who articulates their rebuttal in a rational way, and then do nothing to forward my view in my own life).
I’m a very strong believer in global warming, and I want to join this debate, but my computer is malfunctioning right now, and I have to go try to recover my history files! I’ll be back soon…
Great Job, Alice! I wish I could have seen it! Congratulations on your nomination! I’m like you, I can act, but I can’t sing to save my life! I love to sing, but it makes everyone else cover their ears!
The whole global warming thing- I think this is the main problem with people -we can’t separate stuff:
Science and Religion
Religion and Politics
Politics and Science
So my answer is, I believe global warming exists scientifically, but I don’t believe in it politically.
And I can’t stand Al Gore.
141-Yay! I’m glad it went great.
154-*high five* I can’t stand him either. He probably produces more pollution on his own property than the rest of Tennessee.
I’m going on a Cancer walk today, in, like, six minutes. It’s going to last until Sunday morning. It’s going to be so fun, just walking all night.
152- Well, the rigging of the elections wouldn’t be very nice, given that H wants the position very badly. It’s more of “it’s the thought that counts” thing.
My nose has salve on it. So do my eyes; they feel very weird. I need remover for makeup remover!
I’ve been meaning to ask: What’s the deal with the Bunny Apocalypse? I hear it’s turning into another Pie War 2007, Part 4.
We’re busy saving it! It got a little mean-spirited, but Milady Bunniful gave the Apocalypsers a little warning and we’re all better now!
157-what? really? can’t we go a month without things like those? *goes to investigate*
-157 well, as Bookworm said, we’re trying to save it from the GAPA Zap of Doom.
I am back, temporarily….
What was wrong with the MuseBlog earlier this week? I couldn’t get on and I nearly went INSANE! (okay, not insane, but it was quite aggravating!)
Soo…
We had our last choir concert on Wednesday. It went really well, but now I’m all sad because that was my last middle school concert. We are singing Homeward Bound at “graduation”, but that’s it.
I think I’m the only 8th grader who’s partly sad to leave middle school.
(double post!)
“goodbye May-Hem!”
158- If there are any jobs for a humble Sierran medical researcher, I might come back.
Mean-spirited how, exactly? All the MBers are on the same side, so it couldn’t have played out the way the Pie War did… Were the bunnies being slaughtered? Graphically?
163-Avalon-Girl and TGYPWYA were feuding, and I left them in the same room… There were some mean comments… ((You can see yourself…))
Oh NO! *is nervous* My piano recital is in an hour!
Hmmmm. This whole talk about global warming is interesting. *reads* So, we’re arguing about what causes global warming? OK. Let’s think about this. Our planet is heating up. Our planet keeps gases inside it’s atmosphere and doesn’t let the gases escape. Carbon dioxide just happens to be one of these gases. Scientists have measured the amount of carbon dioxide in the Earth’s atmosphere over the years and have found out that the amounts of this gas is increasing, in fact, more carbon dioxide then our planet has ever seen according to scientific research. Carbon dioxide also so happens to be a heating agent. Therefore, is it such a coincidence that our planet is also experiencing unusually high average temperatures? OK. *thinks* This increase is fairly recent, from Earth standards. So, what has changed on our planet in these past few years that could make for an increase in carbon dioxide? I mean, I haven’t seen this BBC thing, but the first thing that would come to my mind is industrialization. If it is not the entire cause, it sure is a huge contributor. I don’t know, maybe I should watch this BBC thing, but I’m sure that no one would disagree that having less carbon dioxide in our atmosphere would be a good thing. I think that “going green” is a fantastic thing for our planet. Using the excuse that “this global warming thing is a fraud” is not productive for out future, whether the excuse is true or not. “Going green” isn’t just good for the biosphere, it is also good for our economy in general. If you don’t care about the global warming issue, care about our planet’s supply of resources and act anyway.
OK. Discussion out. Now, I’ll go see what you guys were talking about.
*looks at time*
OMG! My recital! *gulp*
Well, Cricketblog (I guess I’ll call it that) should be starting soon. I think I might show them how blogging goes…… Never mind. Anybody else going to do it too? I might need someone else to be there too. But I will definitely not leave museblog. In fact, I will be on museblog more than cricketblog. Oh well. I’ve been waiting but it isn’t up yet. It said “coming in late May 2008” and today is the latest of May you can get.
166- Talk to you at 11:59:59. Not up by then, Something will have happened.
Let’s hope they update it more then the old pages were!
Not much to say, visiting my grandmother.
Hello. I’m back for now. Actually, I’ll probably disappear again soon. But for now, if there’s any threads that I need to read, I’d like to know.
Hi I’m here if anyone cares.
I think people should just stop polluting. Knowing whether or not global warming is happening or how severely we are affecting it doesn’t change anything. We can just sit here and say that our emissions are harming the world, but just because we know or don’t know that doesn’t mean it helps.
Helping helps.
Okay, my last post wasn’t really that great. I just want to tell you all that I won’t be on as often as I usually have been. Facebook is sucking me in. So I might only be on a couple times a week, or maybe only once every couple of weeks. But I’ll still come on, don’t worry.
170- I agree with you all the way. We need to do something!
Gah! Three or four more pages of history and one of English. The history has to be finished by tomorrow, and the English by Monday ‘cept I’m out of the house working with my history group from 10:30 to 4:15 and have book club from 4:15 to, oh say, about 7:00. That leaves me about three hours to study math (and cover about half the year) on Sunday night. Chances of survival: Oh, I’d say 0.0000000001%!
Furthermore, as far as parentals are concerned, I am asleep right now. Therefore I must tread softly (and write five pages).
