Author Topic: What do you do to calm your nerves? Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 04-21-2004 10:01 AM                     quote: Last time I checked, Chicago was still in the mid-west. Mark didn't live on the east coast, you did! I was trying to say if he thinks the Midwest is bad, he should try the East Coast!!! quote: Ya know Rach... I agree with you. I relax by painting my nails too. Especially while soaking in a milk bath. It does get expensive at $2.58 a gallon for a 54 gallon bath, but gosh darn it! It is a real turn on! Hubba Hubba! I had the feeling you'd pick on me about my nails comment! You can have the milk bath to yourself, at what I make right now it would take me 22.83 hours to be able to afford your 54 gallon bath! Plus, I don't have a tub...  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 04-21-2004 10:25 AM                     In the old days it was "wine women and song" now it is "brawds booze and ballads" I ind a good bottle of red wine sitting in a chair in front of the fire and a good book very relaxing  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 04-21-2004 10:38 AM                        quote: Floyd Justin Newton I just go for a good, deeeeeeeeep sniff of formaldehyde... that usually calms everything down! fjn Local 294 Ret. Kodak eliminated the use of formaldehyde stabilizer in the ECP-2 process over 15 years ago (we improved the magenta dye). Maybe that's why projectionists are more "stressed out" these days, without their "sniff" of formaldehyde? http://www.kodak.com/country/US/en/motion/about/chrono4.shtml quote: 1988 EASTMAN Color Print film, 7/5384.

To calm their nerves, they send them back.  |  IP: Logged Will Kutler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1506 From: Tucson, AZ, USA Registered: Feb 2001 posted 04-21-2004 12:59 PM                     LOL Floyd!  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 04-21-2004 02:37 PM                        I take a drive and play some favorite music. If I'm REALLY tense, no music. Relaxing/talking/whatever with my wife is the best way however!  |  IP: Logged Bill Gabel Film God Posts: 3873 From: Technicolor / Postworks NY, USA Registered: Jan 2002 posted 04-21-2004 02:44 PM                     Spending the afternoon watching a film in a old movie palace. If the movie sucks at least you can look at the architecture of the theatre.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 04-21-2004 04:15 PM                     I pick on Phil.

You have me shivering in my boots I'm soooooo scared! Oh please Grand-Poo-BAH, be kind to me and spare me.... And yes Will, that is cruel and the usual punishment you always seem to bestow upon me.

Well, I sit on my arse all night long and sometimes I wish I could soak it, especially when I get stuck in a damn folding chair. Telephone surveying is not good for active people...luckily I'm not! But Phil, I'll need a couple more gallons to soak my far arse!  |  IP: Logged John Scott Master Film Handler Posts: 252 From: Oakdale, MN, USA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 04-22-2004 11:05 AM                     Rachel, Don't tell me you also are working at Leede too! I worked there for a couple of years during breaks when I was in college. Are you still working at the theatre as well? BTW, I might actually take you up on the haircut the next time I'm home which will probably be for my sister's wedding next fall.  |  IP: Logged
