Best White Elephant Gift Ever
« on: December 20, 2003, 10:04:14 AM »
I got it. All I donated was a stupid glass snowman that I had once stored hot cocoa. And what did I come with? No, not the $10 bill, which would have been nice. Nor the giant elmo over which there was much contention.

No, I got the lava lamp. sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. The kids love it too.

Hey, that's cool! We got a lava lamp for Christmas (a present from my parents). It's purple. :)

I got a lava lamp for my 1 year old nephew. It provides him hours of entertainment.

Strange, that's what my parents said when they gave us ours.

Staring endlessly at things is probably a great past-time of people too young to do anything else.  ;D

I dont know when I was in College we turned out all the lights in a friends room drew on the walls with glow in the dark chalk, blacked out the windows and put on a fractal screen saver and listend to music in the dark it wa way cool. But not as cool as my friend who put those glow in the dark stars everywhere, walls, floor, ceiling desks, bedframes etc. Then we set up the rope hammock and dragged it out into the middle of the room charged all the stars with black light and turned all the lights off. Swinging in a hammock in a room filled with stars is way cool. I was way old enough to do other stuff.
Its an automated robot. Based on Science!

Saint ehlers, master of the science of time wasting.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)
