  1. QUOTE (RushRevisited @ Apr 18 2006, 11:36 AM) http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/image/0604/ngc246_gemini_c.jpg Explanation: Appropriately nicknamed "the Skull Nebula", planetary nebula NGC 246 really does surround a dying star some 1,600 light-years away in the constellation Cetus. Expelled over a period of thousands of years, the lovely, intricate nebula is the outer atmosphere of a once sun-like star. The expanding outer atmosphere is interacting with the gas and dust in the interstellar medium, while the star itself, the fainter member of the binary star system seen at the nebula's center, is entering its final phase of evolution, becoming a dense, hot white dwarf. Star and nebula are moving rapidly toward the top of the detailed view, as suggested by the nebula's brighter, upper, leading edge. The sharp image spans just over 2.5 light-years at the estimated distance of NGC 246 and also reveals distant background galaxies, some visible right through the nebula along the bottom. RR- Way cool! I'm learning some good astronomy lessons from your posts!
  2. Alright Netfalco, I've planned a huge party for your birthday.....everyone's invited- rushgoober, necro, tick, lenerd, slacker, geds, abz, all the TRF'ers! But if we're gonna have this party, you gotta show up too Falco!!

  4. QUOTE (Cygnus @ Apr 18 2006, 12:25 PM) Two ladies talking in heaven: 1st woman : Hi! My name is Wanda. 2nd woman: Hi, I'm Sylvia; how'd you die? 1st woman : I Froze to Death. 2nd woman : How Horrible! 1st woman: It wasn't so bad. After I quit shaking from the cold, I began to get warm & sleepy, and finally died a peaceful death. What about you? 2nd woman : I died of a massive heart attack. I suspected that my husband was cheating, so I came home early to catch him in the act. Butinstead, I found him all by himself in the den watching TV. 1st woman: So, what happened? 2nd woman: I was so sure there was another woman there somewhere that I started running all over the house looking. I ran up into the attic and searched, and down into the basement. Then I went through every closet and checked under all the beds. I kept this up until I had looked everywhere , and finally I became so exhausted that I just keeled over with a heart attack and died. 1st woman: Too bad you didn't look in the freezer---we'd both still be alive. Good one!

  7. Lighted streets and quiet nights Each of us, a cell of awareness?
  8. Or..... http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c94/cygnalschick/geddy8.jpg
  9. I think I may have found some new ones..... http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c94/cygnalschick/geddy6.jpg
  10. QUOTE (mephisto @ Apr 14 2006, 09:58 AM) Geddy is surely hawt as hell.. and that for his age Hiiii, Im new here !! Hey Mephisto!! Great to have another New World Woman Like Daylin said, you will love it here! Take care!
  11. I'm confused- because it looks like it was written for a five-string bass....
  12. We don't see what they're made of Who can you believe?
  13. QUOTE (Fridge @ Apr 13 2006, 11:02 AM) Force 10? Yep! I thought I'd be easy on you guys Anyway, Fridge you're up!

  15. QUOTE (BassUnderPressure @ Apr 13 2006, 03:52 AM) Cool! I took a shot in the dark on that one! I'll have a tab up in a second
  16. Until the other day it had been a while since I've listened to VT, and there is no doubt- this album ROCKS Freeze is a great tune, one that I probably didn't hear enough of before. I love the driving force in Ceiling Unlimited too, good stuff!
  17. QUOTE (RushRevisited @ Apr 12 2006, 09:55 AM) http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/image/0604/3c75blackholes_cxc_c.jpg Explanation: The two bright sources at the center of this composite x-ray (blue)/ radio (pink) image are co-orbiting supermassive black holes powering the giant radio source 3C 75. Surrounded by multimillion degree x-ray emitting gas, and blasting out jets of relativistic particles the supermassive black holes are separated by 25,000 light-years. At the cores of two merging galaxies in the Abell 400 galaxy cluster they are some 300 million light-years away. Astronomers conclude that these two supermassive black holes are bound together by gravity in a binary system in part because the jets' consistent swept back appearance is most likely due to their common motion as they speed through the hot cluster gas at 1200 kilometers per second. Such spectacular cosmic mergers are thought to be common in crowded galaxy cluster environments in the distant universe. In their final stages the mergers are expected to be intense sources of gravitational waves. Wow, that is super-cool RR! I find astronomy so fascinating
  18. I'm playin' it...but am having a hard time pin-pointing it! Could you tell me what decade it's from??
  19. I thought I was okay alone What happened to our innocence?

Yeah, people here are great, and definitely, some here are REALLY weird. I know this one particularly weird guy...his name is rushgoober! Watch out for him!!! i've heard of this rushgoober character. tell me more about him. i'd be lying if i said i wasn't intrigued... Well...listen close and listen good Rush-groo, or I'm sorry Rushgoober, has been known to really freak people out around here I mean to the point where these 'certain' folks (whose names must remain undisclosed) will be in therapy for the rest of their lives!! That's all I can say, he might be comin' for me next! Ya know I love ya Rushgoob!!
