Here's a riddle back at ya! A guy finds himself imprisoned in a magical room; a ghostly figure hovers near him. The figure tells him "There are two doors that exit this room. One leads to freedom, the other to an immediate and painful death! Near each door is an orb that will answer any question you ask, however, while one always tells the truth, the other always lies. If you are worthy, ask the right question and take the right action, your survival is assured!" As soon as he finishes the last sentence, the figure disappears. How do you ensure you'll choose the correct door?

Some of the comments on that Kaine video are really good! As one who grew up near a beach, I couldn't help but keep thinking "Why is she (I think it's a she) wearing spiked heels on a beach??!"

I've got an answer, but I'll wait to let others try first!

Makes sense to me! The more stuff you have in your studio to play with, the less inclined you'll be to go out among the unwashed masses! ?

Holy crap! I just posted a reply that only had three guitar chord tabs in it and the censoring software HID it! ? That stuff seriously needs to be fixed! ?

A couple Cannibal comments overheard... "Don't boil those missionaries! They're Friars!" "Don't put the cute girl in the pot, the Chief wants his breakfast in bed." [While eating a clown] "Does this taste funny to you?" Cannibal 1 "Your wife makes a great soup!" Cannibal 2 "That she does! But I'll still miss her..." Young Cannibal [looking at a record producer] "I don't want to eat this!" Mother Cannibal "I don't want to hear any of that! You must eat the vegetables too!"

Who's the smart@ss who put an "s" into the word "lisp?"

Looks better as the meme.

More proof things are all screwed up! Wait until you hear what happened in the second video! As Jesse would say, unbelievable, simply unbelievable!

I like how they almost crack themselves up while performing. A fun way to make a statement, eh? ?

It seems to me that Nightwish is a band doing things right. They really enjoy playing their music and seem like a fun bunch of guys.

I believe you have successfully made it to 66, yes? Well, congrats! And Happy Birthday! ???

Prepare to receive a private message complaining that you are posting more fractals than anyone else Andy!!! ? And, yes, we were using Fractint with a few, choice, C++ modifications. I think it was you who turned me on to Chaotica, but I haven't had any time to play with it... Here's an interesting factoid: Many of you have heard of things like the Fibbonacci sequence (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, ...) and the Golden Ratio (Psi or approximately 1.618) as well as how these appear in nature particularly with growth. Well, fractals share this as most will grow to be 61.8% larger as they develop! Run a simple Mandlebrot set and it's upper growth limit is the Golden Ratio. Cool, eh? ?

Side note... I was once the President of a company called the Liquid Sky Group (the similarity between LSG and LSD were completely intentional). Just me and a couple of work friends. We had two products that were both fractal related. We would make posters of fractals as well as videos of color-cycled fractals (places like nightclubs would use these as background stuff on their TV's). Since this was back when Pentium 3's had just come out, you can only imagine how much more we could have done now... (Heck, just look at some of the YouTube videos available now!). We had some complex fractals that literally took three weeks to complete! It was fun, but just too much ahead of its time...

Why do we park on driveways, but drive on parkways? (Etc.!!!)

I can't believe I listened (and occasionally watched) that whole thing! I wonder what those guys with the dainty, neon green fluff balls were thinking... ("Well, now I know Mom lied! These are definitely NOT real drums!!!") ?

Unbelievable simply unbelievable. ?

Well, EVERYTHING is vibrating, so it could be easily argued that everything is music! ?

That's one large AA meeting!!! ?

You've got a message!

I'm also guilty of the same, especially since this is one of the easiest formulas (my friend's joke that when I die, my eulogy will be in Excel...). Canopus has it correct with =IF(B3+C3>0,1,"") If you wanted to see a "0" on Saturday, then just change the quotes to a zero: =IF(B3+C3>0,1,0)

I try to avoid insomnia. It keeps me up at night. ? (That said, if you'd like some REAL advice Andy, I can share some information from a program I did recently - helped a lot!?)
