Run your life like it's a dance floor

[clevermanka]

I was able to sleep for eight plus hours last night. BLISS. Doesn't make today's post any less scattershot, though. I'm still tired, too. If I could lie down right now, I'd fall asleep.

I want coffee.

Finally! I found something to do with some of my (hundreds of) wine corks that isn't a bulletin board or sink back splash. Burn them.

I realize that, as a never-married, child-free woman of forty-two, my relationship with my parents is different than most people. Well, that and the fact that my parents are awesome. But it says a lot about us that yesterday I received in the mail from them a surprise gift of a pair of purple striped knee-high socks and a Hello Kitty USB drive.

Somehow, I never learned what was the actual issue with The Bermuda Triangle. Honestly? Fact is about as creepy as fiction in this case.

A great Avengers fanvid.

Awesome! I needed something else to help get my Egg started!

I'll be picking up rubbing alcohol during my errands tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing how this works.

Still not sure what to do with the rubber corks, though.

[redheadfae.livejournal.com]

Make craft stamps out of them?

I read awhile back that recycling actual cork makes good sense.. this (http://eatlocalwestmichigan.com/2011/04/29/old-shore-vineyards-provides-wine-cork-recycling-service/) is the closest I can find to that article, but the tough part is finding someone who collects them when we aren't near one of those wineries?

The methane gas story is still just a BT theory. The Navy and Coast Guard say it only appears that more planes crash and ships sink there because it's one of the highest traffic areas.. not really a mystery at all.

STOP RAINING ON MY PARADE

HEY! Statistics is still a science.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

But not as sexy as METHANE GAS causing PLANES TO FALL OUT OF THE SKY.

[redheadfae.livejournal.com]

So how come they don't fall out of the sky over feed lots, eh?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Feed lots aren't SEXY.

[stuology.livejournal.com]

Hahahahahahahahaha!

[mckitterick.livejournal.com]

Because not enough methane! In water, it makes a huge difference, because ships are WAY heavier than methane gas (thus would sink before they could displace a similar mass). Airplanes can still fly through the stuff, assuming their electronics aren't messed up by it, but boats can't float through an upwelling.

This is the great danger lurking beneath the Caribbean (http://www.globalresearch.ca/doomsday-methane-bubble-rupture-how-the-bp-gulf-disaster-may-have-triggered-a-world-killing-event/)....

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Oh, now that's some sexy news. Yeesh.

[mckitterick.livejournal.com]

Um, well, if the ocean blows up, we'll stop having cold winters. That's a plus for you, right...?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

I think if the ocean blows up, cold winters will be the least of my worries.

[mckitterick.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah. Just aimin' for optimism here.

Edit:

Wait.
Most experts in the know, however, agree that if the world-changing event does occur it will happen suddenly and within the next 6 months.

Sooo... where do we stand now, Dr. Doom?

[mckitterick.livejournal.com]

I first heard about this from a geophysicist who said that deep-drilling into that ocean of frozen methane (or any of the other major worldwide deposits) was one of the stupidest things humans could do, because it could lead to worldwide disaster. Now that we stopped, it's not likely to happen... until ocean temperatures rise another degree or two.

We don't have to worry about that, right? Right?

...

[redheadfae.livejournal.com]

errr.. right. I hope I'm lying on the beach and get blown into space if it does.. free ride for my remains.

Pertinent to the conversation?

[tama-grey.livejournal.com]

I was looking for the photograph's source and came across this (http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/tumblr-debunking).

Then I found out about Rogue Waves (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_waves) and decided I was done thinking about the ocean for the night... [shudder]

Re: Pertinent to the conversation?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Man, here I was all excited that there was actually a tumblrdebunking.tumblr.com, until I looked at the user name.

ALAS.

Rogue Waves: *shudder* My parents let me watch The Poseidon Adventure (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069113/) when I was a kid and I never recovered.

Oh man that fanvid. It makes me happy. Did I tell you on the flight to London my plan was to sleep and then I saw they were offering The Avengers and I sacrificed precious napping?

Also, METHANE.... FTW?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

my plan was to sleep and then I saw they were offering The Avengers and I sacrificed precious napping

The only good choice, IMO.

[alryssa.livejournal.com]

That sounds like it was a sacrifice worth making, tbh.

[alryssa.livejournal.com]

That was a pretty great fanvid, it has to be said. Also, yay for getting a good block of sleep! I think the Strattera is interfering with mine. I have to stop drinking caffeine past about 6pm. :/

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

I've cut caffeine almost completely. Occasionally, I'll have it on a weekend afternoon when I know I have to stay up late. But that's it. It sucks, honestly. Damn I miss a good caffeine buzz like you wouldn't believe.

Other than that, is the Strattera worth it?

[alryssa.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure I'm really noticing anything, tbh, except for the irritating side effects. :P

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Well that sucks.

[grnvixen.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the vid, lots of Hawkeye. I have a happy morning now :).

Happy to enable oblige!
