Now when it gets that cold show Mother Nature that she can't get you down. Go skinney dipping in the nearest pond. Proclaim yourself a polar bear. Do it now.  |  IP: Logged Joe Beres Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 606 From: Minneapolis, MN, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 11-25-2003 09:23 AM                     Josh, Why don't you make a film? You're a pretty detail oriented guy, perhaps try making a stop motion animation film. You could get a super 8 camera with single-frame capabilities and create your own characters with all of the parts you have laying around. You could probably find a camera in your basement, or at a thrift store, or I might even have one you could borrow. If you need to fill some time, animation will fill up hours and hours.  |  IP: Logged Josh Jones Redhat Posts: 1207 From: Plano, TX Registered: Apr 2000 posted 11-25-2003 11:39 AM                        Already working on a superbike documentary, but that cant happen until June. hey look at the bright side, this topic has already provided much needed sillyness and killed a day or so Josh  |  IP: Logged Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 11-25-2003 12:06 PM                     Go sledding down a dirt hill, you'd be suprised how fun that is.... quote: Sledding?

I know! Take more pictures of yourself so your forum photo can rotate more.... wait, no... that's equally as bad. You can always move down here to Florida where I wore shorts and a tee shirt and broke a sweat walking to my car from class just now... wait, no.... that's bad too. Too much warmth is just as bad as too much cold. Go to a movie... no... Watch TV... no... Build your dream theater out of wooden blocks and take pictures of it with little Lego people at the concession stand.... not that I... have actually done that or anything... Beats me! Looks like I am just as bored as you are. Come be my friend! =TMP=  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 11-25-2003 04:02 PM                  Rach, I do.

Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 11-25-2003 10:21 PM                     I do not envy the weather in North Dakota. Moving from one place to another isn't very practical, unless the job in the new place offers quite a bit more pay. Oklahoma's weather is pretty entertaining. Our motto here is: Don't like the weather? Wait a minute and it will change. Unfortunately here sometimes that means hailstorms that pock-mark your vehicle with dents or a storm that gives birth to the most powerful tornado ever recorded (true fact, the storm that spawned the monster May 3, 1999 tornado that bulldozed through Moore and Oklahoma City was born right here in Lawton). Josh, do you play video games at all? I know I've lost quite a few hours of my life to Quake2.  |  IP: Logged Evans A Criswell Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1579 From: Huntsville, AL, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 11-25-2003 10:30 PM                        If you get bored a lot, learn to use your right hand more. I get bored quite a bit from the total lack of companionship in my life. I occupy my time by going to theatres to watch movies, watching movies on DVD on the home system, listen to music, occasionally write programs to play with mathematical ideas I come up with (Playing with numbers is more productive than playing with myself, but not always as satisfying). I also drive around a lot. For some reason, driving off to another city fills a lot of time and makes me feel less alone. More ideas: Calculate pi out to a whole bunch of decimal places. Here are the digits I know to get you started: 3.1415926535897932384626433... Learn the square root of 67 out to a bunch of places to impress people at parties: Here are the digits I know to get you started.. 8.185352771872.. (It helps if you have a bizarre reason to know such a thing, like in my case, the strange girl that sat behind me in 11th grade geometry class). Write poetry! Check out my poem review in the "Return to Neverland" thread. It doesn't matter if your poetry sucks. Write anyway! Here's an example: Poem 72 (1997/04/08) by Evans A Criswell Painting a cuckoo can be a chore especially during the hours one until four. Ten brush strokes will be the best you can do if you're ready each time for the first cuckoo. If you start early and from nine till twelve you work you'll do more than four times as much -- Oh what a perk! In a twelve hour period, though, no matter when you start, at most 78 strokes will you spread on that part. If paying a worker daily by the hour to do this task having his shift end at noon is something you must ask. If a worker is hired painting the cuckoo 24 hours a day divide needed brush strokes by 156, giving days of delay. Anyway, if you're bored, there's always something silly you can think up to entertain yourself. Josh, your next post in this thread should contain a poem you wrote. Judging by the spiky hair you have, you strike me as a creative fellow. I'd like to see something you could come up with.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 11-26-2003 12:07 AM                        quote: Evans (plural) wrote: Learn the square root of 67 out to a bunch of places to impress people at parties That sounds like a happenin' party! I bet the cops got called in response to that one, many girls probably got knocked up, a few STD's traded around and others charged with DUI/DWI whathaveyou.  |  IP: Logged Travis Hubrig Expert Film Handler Posts: 175 From: Minot ND, USA Registered: May 2003 posted 11-26-2003 01:20 AM                     Ah, North Dakota, Great pheasant hunting right now, a little safer now that the deer season is over! Yes I've spent a few hours fine tuning my snowmobile so it is ready as soon as the snow comes. Already had it out about a week ago, damn the warm weather that melted the snow we had. Can't wait for a poker run! Finally time to get my motorcycle ready for hibernation. Oh yeah, the theatre, it's about that time of the year again. Cine 12- Babysitting. I also am on a couple of bowling leagues with my buddies, Mon and Tues nights (read: get trashed and try not to fall into the gutter) Sun and Wed we have a Men's hockey league, that is about enough physical activity to counter by beer habits. Do you not have school? One or two classes or even online classes would keep you busy enough not to go nuts. There are quite a few college chicks down there right? You could just pretend to go to college, and maybe hang out at the library on campus to pick up some dates! There are plenty of things to keep you busy... I'm sure you'll find something. By the way, my driveway needs to be shoveled It would earn you a free tour of my theatre!  |  IP: Logged Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 11-26-2003 01:34 AM                     quote: Rach, I do.
