SO....
I'm ridiculously excited right now because I'm going to be getting a new parrot next week! :bounce
It's a baby green cheek conure. I'll be driving down to Richmond, Texas next Friday to pick her up.
Here are some pictures of her brother, her sister, and then the little girl I'll be...
I haven't seen any threads on this yet...but it broke my heart.
It's one thing to be against it because of religious beliefs. Another to push those beliefs on others. But it's worse to make it illegal outright.

I'm not a cigar smoker, so I have NO idea what kinds are good and what kinds aren't....But someone I know loves to smoke them, so I want to know...
Any RFers out there smoke (or used to smoke) cigars? Favorite kinds? Advice? Anything?
He likes ones with darker, spicier flavor to them, I think...
Thought this article was interesting :D
Apparently, they've tried to run a simulation of what would happen if a zombie-epidemic actually DID break out.
It doesn't look too good for the living, I'm afraid.

My friend said something about the immortal jellyfish, so I decided to look into it. The few articles I've found online seem kind of vague, and I can't tell if the jellyfish reverts back to its own polyp state and then ages again, or if it turns into a polyp colony (ie: does it turn into one...
Has anyone else heard anything about these single-celled critters? I found this article after a friend brought it up in conversation and I decided to look into it :D

Does any one have one? Or have you seen one? Know somebody that has one?
I've only seen a couple in person, and they looked gorgeous, but I've heard about tattoo parlors refusing to do them (not sure why..), and about problems with yellowing or fading.
I've tried looking up some info on...
A few mornings ago, the radio hosts talked about this particular incident (it's a fairly short article):

Woot! I'm going :D I'm so excited. :jiggy: :highfive:
Is anyone else going to see them anytime soon? Or perhaps even the same concert?
Has anyone been to one of their concerts in the past?
I have to say...I love their performances. Something about the way Draiman moves when he sings that...
So, I just found this poem, and I like it, but I can't figure out who the actual author is because different sites have conflicting information. Does anyone here know for sure who it is? From what I can tell, it's either "The Call" by Thomas Osbert Mordaunt, or "Answer" by Sir Walter Scott...
So...I'm currently taking a Quantitative Research Design class for my Psych. major. Part of the class is learning how to operationalize different ideas. One of the more interesting subjects (at least I think it is) that's come up is the idea of quantifying/operationalizing "love" so that it...
There may have already been a thread like this, but I didn't see one, and I was curious (I'm a total nerd most times :D) soooo....
What kind of consoles have you had/do you currently have and what were your favorite games to play?
I'll start:

I'm not a wonderful cook or anything, but this cheesecake recipe has always turned out wonderfully!
It takes about two hours to make (counting baking time!). I use a 9-inch spring form pan. You can also flavor it with things other than vanilla. Feel free to experiment! (I always do)...
I got a bit excited about finally registering (I've known about these forums for a looong time now), and started posting before introducing myself (where have my manners gone?). Oops...:o
But without further ado.....
Hello there! :D
So nice to finally be able to post on here and join all of you...
