We'll let you off for Florida if you'll just take Beiber back.
Speaking of Florida, why don't you bail from your coldest-city-in-the-world in the winter and join Lady O and me along with about 20,000 Canaoridians in Naples this year? Contrary to what "Seth" thinks, there really is internet there.
Now you did it, we're gonna get a lengthy explanation as to why Beiber is our fault.
rstrong is a known cyber-terrorist. They won't let him in . . . and shouldn't.
It's been a long time since I took a vacation. These days I take a week off once in a while to work on my own programming project, to upgrade my skills. Last time I wrote a program to control my police/fire/ambulance/aviation scanner - mostly to play with new internet APIs like SignalR. I'm about to take a few days off to work more on a web app framework I've been developing.
I do hope to visit Florida in a couple years, to view a Falcon 9 Heavy launch and landing once they're flying on a regular basis. I'd also like to see a Space Launch system launch, but those will probably only launch once or twice before being cancelled.

Yup. As mentioned once before (I think I also sent you a link):
I haven't visited the US in over a decade. Not since I was warned that I might be detained over accusations that I broke AACS and in turn - I swear, I'm not making this up - being personally responsible for the demise of HD-DVD.
Contrary to what "Seth" thinks, there really is internet there.
So that's where Mr. Setherfobe moved to? You all sure miss 'ol Seth don't you. And Mr B. Don't cry though, you've still got me. And bb-bat.pilgrim, and Big Easy too-too.
Maybe Seth don't want Internet. Maybe he don't want to post in anymore forums.

The temperature of hell
Hell Explained by a Chemistry Student
The following is an actual question given on a University of
Washington chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so
"profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the
Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of
enjoying it as well:
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic
(absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law
(gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some
variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So
we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the
rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume
that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no
souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's
look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most
of these religions state that if you are not a member of their
religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these
religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion,
we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates
as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase
exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in
Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature
and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to
expand proportionately as souls are added.
This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which
souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will
increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls
in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell
freezes over.
So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman
year that, "It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,"
and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night,
then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is
exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory
is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not
accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct......leaving only
Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which
explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God!"
THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A."

The Lone Ranger and Tonto went camping in the desert. After they got their tent all set up, both men fell sound asleep. Some hours later, Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says, "Kemo Sabe, look towards sky, what you see?"
The Lone Ranger replies, "I see millions of stars."
"What that tell you?" asked Tonto.
The Lone Ranger ponders for a minute then says, "Astronomically speaking, it tells me there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three in the morning. Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What's it tell you, Tonto?"
Tonto is silent for a moment, then says, "Kemo Sabe, you dumber than buffalo chip. Someone has stolen tent."
What happened to the forum? Looks like everybody died, retired, moved away, or something. There's no variety in the threads, all (4, 5, or 6) personalities that are left are riding the same thought train on the same track! I should never have left. Y'all just can't be trusted to keep a ship in good order.
That jokes older than dirt. Whats with the too in your name? Don't tell me there's more than one of you! Oh, btw, Hi! Did you miss me? Probably not.
This one is even older, it has even been posted on this very thread before and everyone here has probably already heard it, but it tickles me every time I think about it.
Mahatma Gandhi walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail, and with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him a...super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis."

At least as ancient, but still funny in the same vein...
