I have seen it done only on tv. Seems like a lost art if you ask me.

Here:
YouTube - bow tie

now, please, find something about lap dance+cheese+mustard and pm me about it.

With all due respect, I'll stop posting now (please note how the expression is used here in the most sincere way.)

I was watching the classic movie channel the other night and in this old movie (yes, he was wearing a bow tie) one of the characters was some sort of writer and he had a movielength pipe smoking going on. Tamping his pipe every now and then, taking a few puffs, fiddling with the pipe and eventually putting it in his pocket, to take it out in the next scene again.

No, this post doesn't have anything to do with anything and as far as cheese go, I had to give it up since it upset my stomach . And I really liked it too.

Begging your pardon...but really...how many does it take? I mean...With all due respect now...just HOW MANY DOES IT FLIPPIN' TAKE?!?!










oops...I've cut the cheese...

mmmmm....... beer!

String theory is a developing branch of theoretical physics that combines quantum mechanics and general relativity into a quantum theory of gravity. The strings of string theory are one-dimensional oscillating lines, but they are no longer considered fundamental to the theory, which can be formulated in terms of points or surfaces too.

Since its inception as the dual resonance model which described the strongly interacting hadrons as strings, the term string theory has changed to include any of a group of related superstring theories which unite them. One shared property of all these theories is the holographic principle. String theory itself comes in many different formulations, each one with a different mathematical structure, and each best describing different physical circumstances. But the principles shared by these approaches, their mutual logical consistency, and the fact that some of them easily include the standard model of particle physics, has led many physicists to believe that the theory is the correct fundamental description of nature. In particular, string theory is the first candidate for the theory of everything (TOE), a way to describe the known fundamental forces (gravitational, electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions) and matter (quarks and leptons) in a mathematically complete system.

Many detractors criticize string theory as it has not provided quantitative experimental predictions. Like any other quantum theory of gravity, it is widely believed that testing the theory directly would require prohibitively expensive feats of engineering. Whether there are stringent indirect tests of the theory is unknown.

I had no idea that String Theory and gravity were related. I thought it applied to parallel universes and the big bang. Hmmm......I need to watch Science Discovery more often.

Come on it aint rocket surgery!

I would like to engage in conversation with you on String Theory and the subtle ramifications to our thread, but that wouldn't be Thread Jacking and then I wouldn't be participating in the proper spirit of the thread...

I don't mean to jack this thread or anything .... so I will just pass the smoked provolone and coarse mustard while I ask;

"What is the meaning of beer?"

[Hawnted]

Kinda like when my kid says, "I don't mean to be rude but..."

THEN DONT SAY IT! Lol.

Vitiligo most likely. Perhaps a side effect of steroids. He's got the 'roid fat head that McGwire and Bonds got too. Check out his head when we was a rookie.

Actually he had some laser skin rejuvination procedure. Guess the steriods could have contributed to some sort of adverse reaction. Bui test it on a small area first!!

In keeping with the original post, dig that bow tie.


Wait... What were we talking about?
