Ow! My brain!

I'm sure my co-workers enjoyed watching me roll back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, at the appropriate ones. Thanks for ensuring my spot in office infamy, witchy.

Twas a fun link though.

Urp! They made me seasick.

That is one of the reasons I can't play video games. The other one is that I'm hopelessly uncoordinated and have the attention span of a gnat.

I guess that's the other TWO.

I pretty much quit video games after Space Invaders, except for a brief stint with the Super Mario Brothers. Once video games got all 3-D on my ass, I was out of there.

Strangely, if you are on acid when you look at those, they all look like chickens.

Try playing Super Mario 3, World 6 (original), for an extended period. That blue and white background will eat your mind.

far out, witchstone.

Video games, tell the truth witchstone, mom caught on to you taking all the quarters around the house, and gave you these 3d images in substitution.

hey, if you can't play it on Atari 800, then I want nothing to do with it.

That blue and white background will eat your mind

I think I've met a few people who have played this game too much.

Big emotional shout-out to j.edwards! :)

J. Edwards? The senator / presidential hopeful or the guy who talks to the dead (or the MeFite)?

The best of those illusions is "The Autumn Color Swap". It is my new desk top and, had I seen it before, would have been my cd swap cover.

Hey, Miguel! Don't see you much anymores.

Actually, eyeball, I'm all three. We are legion.

Shut up about John Edwards. He could very well be the guy who nominates my boy for the academy...(the politico, not the necromancer.)

As for the main point of this thread, dang, I didn't really NEED a flashback just now...just sayin'.

Whoo Hoo! Thanks Witchy! That's the closest I've been able to come to drugs in 9 months... ;)

dejah, aren't you about to pop? Best of luck, though. I won't tell you about our delivery on September 7, other than that it involved general anesthetic and a ruptured uterus. And that was just me -- you should have seen my wife! *rimshot*

so nice i posted twice

dejah's been pregnant for fourteen months now. i think it's time she saw a doctor.

Seriously. What's she incubating in there?

Hey, remember in "V" when the woman who had had sex with one of the aliens gave birth to the twins and one was an alien with a normal tongue and one was a human with an alien tongue and you thought the alien baby would live, but it died and then the human one grew up really fast and she had that forked tongue?

Maybe it's just me who remembers that.

I just think he/she's just in no real hurry to come out. That's what happens when 4:20 is mom's favorite time of day. Although s/he's probably got the munchies somethin' fierce. ;)

Once again 9622 scoops the blue. Good job, witchstone.

J.Edwards - are you posting on your new Next cube? Ooh, that makes me all tingly, it does!

*furiously applying talcum powder to deep green face*

and then, like, i saw god man.

oldie but goody i posted to the blue last april.

Hey, b****fire, I like Sen. John Edwards. There was no criticism there.

Heh. You want optical illusions? Try and find your monkey friend on the front page of Saturday's Diário de Notícias. Yup, it's my brand new weekly column!

So, does this mean that things are looking up for our smoking jacket-wearing, cocktail swillin' sexpert-in-residence? 'Cause there were some rather shaky days not so long ago...I would love to hear that things were on the ascent. Maybe I would have figured it out if those Portuguese learning tapes were having any effect on me. But no, I'm just as plumb ignerrant as before in the language of Miguel-love.

Haven't gotten the NeXT up and running just yet -- well, it's up, and it's running, it's just not fully operational as a computer.

But soon.

Miguel! Congratulations! I just looked at their homepage, and though you are not yet listed as a columnist, the ones that are make quite prestigious company. We mere monkeys are humbled.

Is this you?

Re: Popping...

Yep, I'm almost 37 weeks, theoretically am due on Dec 3. Keyword there, theoretically. :) Lemme tell ya, I'm so tired of being pregnant, I could cry. Oh, wait...I have. ;)

Wow, pardon me, how's your wife doing now? And the baby?

Strangely, if you are on acid when you look at those, they all look like chickens.

That's weird. I was going to make a comment about taking acid and looking at them and something else that I've forgotten now, and you know, I'm a (wonder) chicken and everything.

Also : Hi Jed!

Also also : Congratulations, Miguel! Have you toppled the evil Clix empire yet?

Yep, I'm almost 37 weeks, theoretically am due on Dec 3.

Freaky! Dec 3 is my birthday. The li'l bugger will either be blessed or cursed depending on how you look at it.

Readymade: yep! You win the big prize (by e-mail, of course, under plain cover).

Yup, things are looking up, sort of, and the evil Clix empire is being hounded and pounded with lawsuits.

Wow, pardon me, how's your wife doing now? And the baby?

They're both doing fine, thanks for asking. And I don't mean to scare you at all -- emergency c-sections just seem to be our thing. This time (second) my wife's doctor talked us into trying for a vaginal birth, and said she had never had anyone's uterus rupture. Well, now she has.

The point is that however it happens the end result is worth it.

Too much information for everybody? OK, [/birth talk]

Yep, I'm almost 37 weeks, theoretically am due on Dec 3. Keyword there, theoretically. :)

i think you should hold out until the 6th. i've always liked being born on that day. 'course, any way you work it, the kid's going to complain that you planned the whole thing to screw him/her out of christmas presents (you did, didn't you?)

Nah, go for December 2nd. My birthday, true-but also far enough away from Christmas that you still get presents for both. And the stores are filled with great stuff that time of year. ;-)

Obviously I'm bored out of my mind and am now dipping into the treasured archives in order to quench my thirst for commenting.

And also, thought this optical illusion might drive you a little crazy. 'Tis for real.

I don't believe that! It's not true!

Alas. It is true. Frighteningly true.

mmm...tacos...

I'm scared. Please hope me.

plus, look at this:

A note about posting images:

We encourage users to post images, especially those hilarous pics of monkeys wearing dresses or programming for Linux.
