Music and clothing all kind of go together as it's all related to culture. Now that we have more of a global culture it will be exciting to see how it changes.


It was nice to talk with you. Have a good day!


Those were the days! Albums are timeless. Even being 40 years old, the dark side of the moon was one of the best selling albums of 2014!


True. It's always interesting to see such changes. Audio cassette was popular format until 2000s, then CD... I'm wondering what could be next? let's say in 10-15 years. Probably, we have no idea right now...


Good question. I have no idea. I think things like apple music and spotify are the most popular now. I was disappointed to hear about Linkin Park's main singer's death. They had the best selling album of the 21st century!


It was very very sad for me too. Btw, I've read about rap album released by twins in Japan when they turned 100 years old. It's nice!


Wow that is so cool to not only live that long but to release a rap album! Speaking of rap, NWA was pretty popular and controversial. They reached platinum status without a major record label.


Cool. Don't you mind to change topic? I've read that 86% of Nevada's land is owned by US government. It's quite surprising. I know there are a lot military facilities. It could be a reason. What do you think?


Yes that is very surprising. They have a lot of control of that state. They must do military activities there or something like that.


It looks like you very busy person lol Takes a lot of time to reply lol Do you know any other states with such % of land controlled by US government?


Yeah, google does it all.  You know when there is a disputed border, Google maps tailors its maps to the claims of each country where the internet browser is located?


I bet, what's even more interesting is that Google went down August 16, 2013 and took 40% of web traffic with it!


Sure it is. Speaking about Netflix earlier. Did you know that Netflix has a movie that is nothing but an hour long video of a fireplace for your home? I am assuming some kind of screen saver.


It's actually quite popular around the holidays for people to sit and watch that log burning in the fireplace.  Who would have thunk it?  I read somwhere that Google once used goats to mow the grass around their headquarters instead of  people.


What? That`s odd?! But Google is quite efficient when it comes down to using electricity, their data center uses about 0.01% of a total worldwide electricity use.


Yes, they are.  Getting back to Netflix, did you know they spend 20 times more on postage than on bandwidth?


No. But I am not surprised. As of October 2018, Netflix has 137 million total subscribers worldwide, including 58.46 million in the United States. They mean business.


Yes, they do.  Did you realize Blockbuster turned down several offers to buy Netflix for $5o million and now Netflix is worth $2 Billion.  Can you say Blockbuster, who?


Yes, right? In 2000 Netflix proposed that blockbusters should use Netflix as its online service and blockbuster laughed them out of office.


Big mistake, HUGE!  Well, it's been nice chatting with you friend.  Have a good day!


No. I do not. But I have a question. If Google were to operate in China, what it would look like? The project called Dragonfly, is already performing to the satisfaction of Google executives..


Not sure about that.  I do know a single Google search requires more computing power than it took to send Neil Armstrong and eleven astronauts to the moon.


Ha ha... What Do you think about Musk, who agreed to pay $20 millions fine and step aside, as Tesla chairman for three years to settle charges?


Yes. It was quite interesting for me to see early versions of google moon using pictures of cheese for the closest zoom level? What about you?


Sounds cool, I've never seen that.  I do know that Google maps calculates traffic by tracking how fast android devices are moving on the road.


Oh, I did not know that , thank you. Yes, It reminds me of  when google launched  gmail. At first "g-mail" was the name of a free email service offered by garfield`s website, brings so much memories, good old days.


Yeah. Do you know what they do with disputed borders?


Yes they tailor it to the claims of each country


Yeah pretty fair. Do you use your phone much?


All the time. Do you know why the NY area code is 212?


Yes because it was easy to dial on a rotary phone


Yes those seems like they were a pain to use to make a single call


Yeah . And phone book too, if the pages get stuck there is no separating them


Yeah pretty cool. I guess some people have the time to check on things like this


Exactly. UNICEF now donated clean water when we do not use the phone


I wonder how they do that so I can help there too. Nice chat!


Yes I do. Do you know how much computing power a single search requires?


Yes more than it took them to send Armstrong and 11 others to the moon


Yeah. DO you know they calculate traffic?


yes they take the average of android vehicles as they move


Yeah pretty neat. Did you hear they once hired goats?


Yes to mow their lawn instead of hiring people


Yes so cool. Did you know they went down for 5 minutes in 2013?


Yes and it took down 40% of web with it too


Yes that just speaks volumes on how big they are actually


I would definitely recommend it, I usually turn it on when I see it on TV even though I have watched it a few times.


Well then, its settled. im gonna watch it asap.


Have you ever watched Kung Fu Hustle? It's a film Bill Murray is a big fan of.


I heard he thinks its really good. I saw it. Im not on the same page so to say.


I thought the movie was unique but I did not think it was the biggest achievement in modern comedy.


Not at all, but thats just this guys opinion. Im sure bill has a lot more influence than I do. Lol.


I like will ferrel movies. i think that dude is funny.


Yeah I really like his movies. I didn't see Holmes and Watson but I read that it was pretty disappointing.


Really. I have been waiting to see that one. I guess Stepbrothers made me think those two are such a goood team that no matter what it would be funny.


Yeah they do make a good team. You never know, you might find it funny even though a critic didn't. Hope you enjoy Zombieland!


I watch them a lot, they're the most enjoyable genre for me.


It is an enjoyable genre. Lol. Do you like Bill murray.


I am a Bill Murray fan, my favorite movie is Ghostbusters


That one is ok I guess. I liked groundhog day.


That was pretty good, his small role in Zombieland was also great.


It's a fun comedy based around the zombie apocalypse, they recently announced a sequel.


really, I will have to check it out. Do you recommend it.


Hello there, so have you seen any of the Star Wars movies?


I guess he only got paid $7,500, but when I say only, it only took him two and a half hours to do them!


That's a lot for 2 and half hours.in 2018 star wars was worth $65 billion


Holy cow, I wonder how much it was worth in 1998, probably less than half of that.


In 2013 star wars was dubbed in Navajo, making it the first major film to be in navajo


That is awesome!  Did you know Star Wars holds a Guinness World Record title?


No for what? Fox thought star wars would flop


I guess they hold the record for most successful film merchandising franchise.  When I hear merchandising I think of that scene from Spaceballs.


Do you watch the academy awards? Eminem has more Oscars than Leonardo DiCaprio


That is crazy!  I heard he has more than Johnny Depp and Will Smith as well.


The Oscars were nominated for 9 Emmys in 2013.


I have seen several. I read Tran who played rose left Instagram after racist messages from fans.


What? That is so stupid to me, why an awards show?  Do you know who is the only actor to win best actor 3 times?


Good call!  He is a great actor though so I can see it, I wonder what roles he won for.  Maybe the butcher role in Gangs of New York.


Probably. Blazing saddles was nomonanom for 3 Oscars too. Well have a great night.


That is so sad fans are so cruel to people.  I have yet to see her in that movie, I really want to though.


Yeah I think each movie does because there are so many of them and they all have their different tastes.  But the personal comments to the actors is just stupid.


Did you know Chloe Bennet changed her last name to get in to US easier


No I didn't know that, I wonder how many people do that when they come here.


Seems like a lot. Apparently they get more call backs with American last names.


Yeah I can see that, and whatever helps for them I'm sure they will do.  Hey do you know how much James Earl Jones was paid for doing all the darth vader lines?


No, who is Ryan Stiles is he also a famous comedian?


Yeah he is and similarly he dropped out of high school to focus on comedy


I guess that paid off for him as well, still a harsh decision, if your dream is comedy you must at least finish high school and then persue it


I agree but good thing it worked for him. Speaking of famous people, do you know who is the highest paid celebrity?


Im guessing its Judge Judy she makes about $123000 per episode when you sum it up its a lot of money


Yeah she is the second one in the list I think with LeBron being the first guy


Oh thats right, Lebron does earn a lot of money, that makes sense, did you know there is a secret room at Pixar studios


Is that the one that only celebrities are allowed to access?


Yeah celebrities, directors and wealthy people, did you like Robin Williams in Aladdin?


I do, my favorite genre is comedy, do you like movies?


I did and he was the first guy to stat the trend of celebrities doing voices.


Yeah that is my favorite genre too. Do you like bromantic comedies then?


Yeah The Hangover is one of my favorite movies, well all 3 of them,


I loved that movie too. How about tv shows that are comedies? Like 3rd rock from the sun?


I havent heard about that show before, is it any good?


I have seen a few episodes of it and it is good but I do not think it is better than Friends, however it beat it to win an award


I love Friends thats like my favorite show and yeah doesnt seem righ, do you know who Demetri Martin is


Yeah he is a super funny guy, guess it paid off to drop off of Harvard Law to pursue comedy


I guess it did, hard decision to make though


For sure lol. Did you ever watch that 70s show, i liked that growing up


I used to watch it a lot in college. It was a good mind numbing show to watch after class.


for sure lol. It had a lot of good stars in it that got their break after that. Too bad the uk version didn't have success.


Yeah that is too bad. I would love to see more plays adapted into movies. I don't get to the theatre much so that would be fun to watch.


Yea I would like that also, movies need to get a little better. Do you listen to the radio much?


Not as much as I would like to. I love music. What about you? Do you like the radio?


I love the radio, I like oldies. Apparently in canada they have a law where they have to play at least 40% of their songs on the radio. I don't think I could do it


As long as it isn't a 40% justin beiber playlist I think I could handle that.


I was thinking the same thing lol! It was so nice talking with you!


I could stand to listen to 40% of alanis morisette though.


I watch quite a bit of murder mysteries on hallmark. What about you?


I could too, I never knew she was canadian, that would be a fun road trip in canada lol, have a good night!


Nice, that is awesome. I need to check them out. I watch family guy and south park sometimes, ever watch those?


No they aren't really my kind of show. I don't go in for raunchy comedy. I can't believe how long they have been on the air though.


Yea, they are pretty raunchy. One time south park made fun of family guy and the simpsons sent them flowers


Nice. They seem to get a lot of actors to do voice over work on their shows though so it must pay well.


For sure. Did you ever watch pokemon growing up? They have like 750 episodes!


I didn't watch it growing up but I do now. I have some pokemon obssessed kids. I think we have probably seen all 750.


I think I have also lol! Thomas the tank was good too, they had famous people voicing thomas


They really do! I just can't get behind some of these reality shows nowdays. Some are so obviously fake.


Hi, how are you doing on this fine evening?


Is it the most cost effective way to prevent carjacking? It does certainly leave an impression, especially on a first date.


I am trying to figure out how they would obtain a flamethrower and who would install it for them.


I suppose there is an informal market Perhaps jury-rigging military equipment?


I didn't think about that. That probably is the case. Modified flamethrowers LOL


Maybe Wikileaks has some documents about flamethrower technology that could be applied to vehicles


I am sure they do. When they exposed the governments plans was that not during the 2016 election campaign??


I disremember if it was. But Wikileaks does seem to time its release of info. I think that McD's in SA should accommodate vehicles with flamethrowers.


I agree. I would not want to be ordering a 99 cent burger (or whatever they have) and have someone try to pull a sneaky on me.


You cannot let your guard down at the drive thru! It's INFESTED with car jackers! Anyhows, great chatting with you. Stay safe.


That should make me think of some great movie but all I thought about was Shrek.


So, what's on your mind? What would you like to chat about? Perhaps government?


I want to know why they own so much of Nevada's land.


I think it's for strategic and military purposes. They might do testing and military stuff there. War games, beer busts, hide and seek.


That was my first thought. I didn't realize how big of a state Nevada is.


Lots of desert. Plus I think the military wanted dibs on space near Vegas and Reno. The Norwegian government donated $1bn to help save the Amazon rainforest. I wish the US gov't would do something like that.


The desert land wouldn't cause an issue? I wish they would too. Hopefully one billion will help out a lot.


Norway has money from oil. There was a man in France who impersonated a government official, and sold the Eiffel Tower not once, but twice. Maybe I could sell some Amazon jungle to the US gov't.


I need to find out what happened to the France guy. I wonder how many people in South Africa have flame-throwers to prevent carjacking lol


Hey what do you prefer cats or dogs? I know that I personally don't like cats lol


That sounds awesome! I want a set of those and then to sell the gold for money. I'd also like to ride on a highway of bugs LOL like ladybugs


Haha, if you think bugs are gross, I'm not sure you'd want to be in the middle of billions of bugs traveling around.


That's a good point! It just sounds fun to be on a bug Highway haha. How often do you listen to the radio by the way?


You like to jump around in conversations a lot, huh? I listen to the radio whenever I'm in the car. How about you?


I don't listen to the radio very much. I think it's mostly just listen to YouTube, but apparently you can listen to a Jupiter radio storm if you are on the right Channel


Yes, it just need to be an AM capable radio, probably not one of those that soldiers made in WW2.


No those are called Foxhole radios. They were made with razor blades and also pencils, don't ask me how that is possible though haha


To understand that would require the understand of radio waves to begin with.


Yes I think so. I won't understand why Canada requires 40% of all Canadian radio to be of Canadian origin though, that doesn't leave a lot of room for others


I would imagine it creates a sense of Nationalism.


I like all animals, really. Cats are pretty harmless; by the time they've reached 15 years old, they've slept 10 of those years if you can believe it!


What about the Finnish radio station that broadcast in Latin? That is not nationalistic I don't think, but it must appeal to someone because it's been around since 1989


That is crazy! I love the movie The Godfather, and I can't believe the cat in the opening scene was actually a stray


There's talent everywhere, I guess! Haha. A physicist was published listing his cat as a coauthor, so they have a large range of skills!


That is one special cat! Kind of like the cat who is the mayor of Talkeetna Alaska, that cat is doing a great job because it's been the mayor since 1997!


They're also known to lift the spirits of those around them, otherwise the cat cafes in Japan wouldn't make any money!


I want to go to a Dog Cafe! I don't want to go to a cat cafe haha. I also don't want to go to an insect Cafe, I think insects are gross


Oh, I don't. It's hard to think over 90% of the animal life is "gross".


Haha well it's not hard for me haha. Have you ever seen a tiny red bug that is usually found on concrete? It's apparently called a clover Mite, I've never heard of it though


I think I remember seeing them when I would play outside as a kid. Maybe you won't find the "gold bugs" gross. They actually breathe in and excrete solid gold!


Hello there, do you watch much television these days?


That is awesome and a lot of episodes that each of them did, wow.


How about that 70s show? Did you watch that?


That is a great show, the first few seasons were really good.  How about yourself?


Yeah, I watched all the seasons. I might have missed some episodes here and there. It was so good they tried to remake it in UK verbatim. It wasn't the same, I guess, because it failed terribly


Yeah I wonder how bad it sounded that way.  Did you ever watch South Park?


I never really could get into it. It was quite violent and crass. Speaking of violence, did you hear about the people who lived through the Las Vegas shooting and the California massacre? How scary!


Yeah that was so sad and yeah that would be so scary.  The ones who did survive could have nightmares for life.


Yeah, the survivors now have problems like anxiety and being scared of the dark.


I could understand that, I feel so bad for them.  Just there trying to have fun and tragedy strikes.


I usually just watch Netflix. How about you?


That is, well it was nice talking with you, I hope you enjoy the rest of your night.


I watch mostly sports either live or on my DVR so I have to have cable television.  Do you watch the Simpsons?


I used to when I was younger! I can't believe there is only one episode where Bart does not appear!


That is interesting to me, I know I haven't seen that episode, so it must be in the later seasons.


I used to watch Pokemon too but grew tired of it. There are 750 episodes of Pokemon!


I can't believe there are that many episodes!  I didn't even know that was a tv show.


Did you ever watch Thomas the Tank Engine?


I didn't but know what it is, my nephews would watch it.  Did you know that Ringo Starr has narrated some episodes?


I heard that he, along with George Carlin and Alec Baldwin, have narrated for at least 52 episodes each.


I would do exactly the same as you.  How could you not pass that up the chance to set yourself up for life? lol


Yeah, that is quite lucky. Do you follow softball at all?


I actually enjoy watching college softball on ESPNU!


Really? the womens game? do men play as well?


lol I watch the women though because the pitchers really sling that ball to the plate.  On May 11, 1991 Creighton hosted Utah in the longest softball game in NCAA history lasting 31 innings!


Yeah, that underhand pitch can really move. That is one long game! Not much of a career after college though. As of 2014, the average salary for a professional softball player is between $5,000 and $6,000.


No.  Not enough fans to support it. lol  Jose Canseco claims to hold the record for longest softball homerun at 622 feet.  He might have it.  I've watched him hitting softballs on youtube.  He crushes them even still to this day.


He had the juice to hit the balls a country mile. I didnt know he played softball.


Check it out on youtube.  I was shocked at how far the balls go. lol  Kickball is also called soccer-baseball in Canada! lol It's been fun chatting!


Yes, it has been fun chatting! Have a good weekend!


i like baseball. i usually watch the world series. You?


I'm a fan.  Did you know that baseball managers wear uniforms because they are technically able to play for their teams if needed.


I think that is a holdover from the old days. i bet back then a player was chosen to also be manager.


I'm not sure how that worked.  The last one to do that I remember was Pete Rose back in the late 80's.  He played every day and managed at the same time.


yeah, he was a competitive guy. probably perfect for the dual role of manager/player.


Up until 2005 a married couple scheduled all 2430 major league baseball games played each year for 24 years!  I bet that could get confusing.


Yeah, i figured that was all done by computer.  I guess they had a pretty sweet gig.


Must have paid pretty good otherwise I don't think they would have done it for that long.  A man found 3 million dollars worth of baseball cards in grandfathers attic that were hidden since the 1940's.  He hit the jackpot.


Wow. I would probably sell some, and keep the rest as an investment. What would you do?


I always read the local paper, and then social media, and friends and family, I also watch a lot of CNBC, how about you?


I use mainly the BBC and a local news network but a lot of people are using Fox News.


I read that, I can't believe how popular they are.  They even had a feud with the Simpsons.


They do seem to be easily offended but I suppose it's because they are so opionated!


Yeah and you know how it is now days that if you have an opinion, everyone hates you, unless its the right opinion, then you are ok.


And they are situated in New-York, I would have thought that would be situated in in the deep south, for me, they will sound even stranger when they blame the NY elite.


Yeah I agree with you on that.  And, they were founded with help from Nixon as well.


Well, everyone is entitled to their opinions I guess, even Richard Nixon, but he was not someone who liked the truth, so creating a news network for him is surprising.


Yeah I guess when you put it that way, it does make sense then.


Hello there, I do enjoy it, I found a good local station recently.  How about yourself?


And the thing is that Fox News is is a part of a bigger corporation that owns even small websites like IGN. They are powerful.


Yes they really are, well it was nice chatting with you today, I hope you have a good day.


I like listening to radio programs, the principle of the radio is so simple that you can build one with a razor blade and a pencil.


That is so cool, didn't soldiers used to do that?


Yeah in WW2, I think it was called a foxhole radio, I guess they did sound bad, but it was better than nothing.


Yeah I'm sure they were happy to get anything they could from it, very interesting.


It was probably music there were listening, if it was radio dramas, they would a missed many parts when in combat, have you ever listened to one ?


No I don't think I have, but I have heard there is a website that has tons of free ones to listen to.


It was like theater, but you could not see the actors. It was a demanding activity since you could not do anything else while doing.


That is true, I think it would take tremendous skill to perform those dramas.


The car brand cadillac was named after french explorer antoine de la mothe cadillac who founded detroit.


that is very interesting, who thinks of these last names though!


I am not sure, it would be interesting to find out though... New york's area code is 212 because it was the fastest number to dial on a rotary phone


that is interesitng, did they have to bid for that area code you think?


No, East coast bias... Plus they were probably the first to get phones so they just chose it...


That makes sense, it was a big city even back then. I have heard Unicef donates water to children for not using your phone


Wow, that's really generous. I wonder what the criteria for the donation is...


I am not sure, I need to look into it, I barely use my phone!


You could help thirsty kids! The cables carrying phone and internet data across oceans are only 2.7 inches in diameter and just lay on the ocean floor.


really? that is very surprising to me, maybe sharks break the internet haha


I think we could all use some time away from screens so it may be a welcome site...


I agree, but that might cost people money, so lets be better under our own power!


Well, thanks. Mcdonalds' added drive-thru in 1975 to accommodate soldiers who were not allowed to get out of their cars while wearing their fatigues. I have a theory, see if you agree, this would have been at the end of the Vietnam war or after it when the US was anti-war. Do you think that was the reason for the drive thru?


I have heard that too, that was nice of them. I think so as well, plus it might make a good publicity stunt


Yeah. I heard that the other day and had no idea and it really bothered me until I thought of the Vietnam war, which explained it...


Yeah that is an odd year to implement it I suppose


Speaking of odd... It is legal in south-africa to equip your car with flame-throwers to prevent carjacking.


I have heard that as well, that is a real good indicator of what it is like over there


That would be the worst! Not sure I would ever car jack


I get it. Carjacking is scary, cars are not cheap by any stretch!


I am sure no one really paid attention and was just waiting for U2 like "Who are these guys wasting our time?"


Probably so. Whenever I have went to counrty concerts I always enjoyed the acts that came on before the main singer.


Me too! I feel like they try harder so they can get their big break!


Did you know that taylor swift actually walks backwards to avoid being photographed.


Seems dangerous and vain... But I am not sure I could pick her out of a line up so that is just my naivet√©...


Yeah I dont see the problem with getting a picture taken. She makes enough money to put up with that annoyance.


yeah plus she has been photoed enough so nothing can be new


I understand wanting some privacy. Go back to your families 11 acre tree farm for a visit if you need to get away.


I wonder if they do that for Isreal and Palastine too?


They have a land dispute for the gaza strip... Nice chatting with you!


I am well, thanks! Do you listen to country music?


I do. Did you know it originated from celtic music.


No, I didn't know that. Do you know who Tegan Marie is?


I am reading that she is a 15 year old singer/songwritter. She is bringing a new philosophy to country music, a younger one.


Thats cool. A different perspective than when we thought an nfl country album was a good idea huh


Did you read about U2 opening for themselves dressed in disguises in 1987? They came on as a country band.


I heard about that. Im surprised nobody noticed to be honest with you.


Hmm...I did not know that. Looks like they can't see all of the colors a human can, but they can see most of them which is interesting.


I wonder which colors they can and cannot see. I wonder if it helps them with any of the jobs they perform. Do you know of any dog tasks or jobs?


Yea I'm not too sure on what colors they can and can not see. No idea on any dog tasks or jobs.


I  know that they can help with hunting, herding, protection, policing, companionship and I even personally know of dogs who help children with reading


Yea they can do all sorts of good things to help out humans. Switching gears, did you know people fantasy draft the national spelling bee.


How interesting. I would not even know how to begin my team. I know of fantasy sport teams but not spelling bee. I learned there is even a fantasy congress!


Haha - I do play fantasy football, but that's about it.


And it just a single fold in the brain that separates your fantasy team from the real team. Pretty interesting.


Well thanks for chatting today, I learned a lot of new and interesting things.


I am good. Are you more of a cat or dog person?


I am definitely more of a dog person. What about you?


I like both but I guess I am more of a dog person. Google is a dog company and they prefer dogs as well.


That's funny they are a dog company. Did you know there are 12 different blood types that a dog can have?


I never knew that. Or that they have dog blood drives. How surprising!


That's funny. Istanbul has vending machines that dispense food and water for the stray dogs in exchange for plastic bottles.


If America had that, I would definitely use it. And I would point to the machine and the dog would know, an elephant too, I suppose.


It's a very good way to recycle plastic bottles. I don't think we have a stray dog problem though.


No, thank goodness. Did you know dogs are not color blind? I always thought they were


I am not sure about that actually. do you watch much wrestling or other things on tv?


I tend to watch a few shows, but I stream it after it airs. Have you ever seen one of the over 750 episode of Pokemon?


Yeah some of them. They have been in air for 16 years. that is a long time


The Simpsons has a lot of episodes too! And of all those, only one is completely absent of Bart in both appearance and mention


Yeah I wonder which episode that is. Did you ever see That 70s show?


I watched most of it. I heard that the UK remade it word for word. I wonder if the references went over well


They certainly did not since it was cancelled after just 10 episodes


On the same level, I wonder what those in the UK think of country music, especially since it has the nickname "hillbilly music"


Yeah , I wonder too. did you know jeff bezod and george strait are cousins?


I wonder if Jeff Bezos helped out his cousin with his wealth. I know Henry Ford was a fan of country music and helped finance its spread


I don't, but many famous people were wrestlers before moving on to other pursuits, one of which was Plato.


yeah Henry was afraid that jazz was going to take over so yeah


There's even a guitar specifically created for country music


That is fascinating. In Turkey oil wrestling is a national sport.


I can't imagine how hard it would be to wrestle while covered in olive oil!


yeah that must be very slipppery for sure


Apparently the guy who designed for Jimi Hendrix and Aerosmith also had a knack for designing wrestling gear for Macho Man.


Even Abe Lincoln is enshrined in the wrestling hall of fame


I guess he wrestled about 300 times and only lost once. That's impressive


That is for sure. And a guy who particpates in wrestling has  the most densely muscled hands in the world


That makes a lot of sense. I wonder what percentage of wresting is competitive versus theatrical


It has made travel so much easier to.  There is a website where you can find people that will let you sleep on their couch as you travel.  The internet can be utilized to do amazing things by people with good will and creativity.


I think it's couchsurfing.com. A few blogs I read talk about it from time to time, they even do it on Mackinac Island, though getting there is a challenge, as you can't drive on the island.


That is probably a good idea to ban motorized vehicles.  It would reduce carbon output dramatically.  Plus increase the amount of people getting daily exercise by walking!


Or, biking- as there are plenty of bikes around the island. I think we need a commuter bus like the one the Dutch are building


Yeah, a commuter bus is a smart idea too, because more people would be packed into one vehicle.  Also, 160 mph is fast!


Iceland could sure benefit from one too, they don't even have a rail service.


Yeah.  I wonder if domestic flights merely to go between towns is a wasteful form of travel.


I think they are. But, it's either fly or drive...and if you don't have a car.


Imagine driving in Japan.  All their highways are tolls.  Anyone who doesn't like tolls would be in a nightmare if they were driving in Japan!


That would be a nightmare. I would prefer to go by boat, like the Hawaiian King who sailed around the world.


Hello, have you tried the mayonnaise ice cream? No, sorry. I don't.


Yeah.  Well I appreciate talking to you.  Have a good day!


No, I have not.  The ice cream shop that made it also made Monster Energy drink flavor and Strongbow cider flavor.


The Scots have been busy, lol. I don't think I would try any of them. Who is Ed Sheeran?


An English songwriter who was influenced by Eminem.  He lived an interesting life.  He gave one of his songs to Justin Bieber.


That is so cool. Does he have a better vocal range, than Freddie Mercury?


Yeah!  In the past he slept outside buckingham palace.  That is rough!  He must be tough!  Despite his hardships, he still made his way into the music industry.


That's awful that so many are homeless at some point in their life. Thankfully, a few do manage to break that cycle. Oddly, the current library of Alexandria has a copy of the internet saved.


That is good that a copy of the internet is saved.  The internet can be useful for homeless people.  Where ever they may be, the internet is an endless resource for them.


I agree. Plus, many places have outlets outdoors in public spaces. Now, they need to work on the internet, as it's insane that the peak of Everest has it, and I can't get it in my barn.


You're lucky.  I also have MILB.TV  I've became a huge minor league fan as well the last few years.  Love to follow the guys from the low levels and watch them on the way up.  Do you use youtube?  Together with Netflix they make up half of the peak internet traffic in North America.


It's amazing how popular YouTube is with kids - my kids watch so much content and most of it is benign DIY and crafty stuff.  But I need to monitor them on YT because there is a ton of weird and wacky stuff on it!


Yes. I watch a lot of sports on it as well as entrepreneur videos and business inspirational/motivational videos.  I wish I would have created it.  It was started on Feb. 2005


I know it languished and toiled for a while, trying to figure out how to generate revenue and monetize their viewers.  I think they're doing OK now, especially when I hear about YouTube personalities making Million$ a year off their "shows"


It was created by 3 PayPal employees and they sold it to Google in Nov. of 2006 for $1.65 billion dollars!  Not too shabby for a company that was just a little over a year and a half old.  That's why I said I wish I had created it. lol  Then I would be down in Arizona going from training camp to training camp.  LOL


Yes!  PayPal is an interesting partner in this story - wasn't Elon Musk also a PayPal player?  As you said before - it's amazing how much bandwidth they take up among all internet traffic and streamers


Yes. I believe that's where he made all his money as well.  I think he made some money from the 1.5 billion that ebay paid for paypal.  He also had some other businesses that he grew and sold as well.  But, that was where the bulk of his money came from.  Do like horses at all?


I don't dislike horses!  They're pretty cool actually - I had a summer job in HS cleaning out stables at a local ranch, so I've been around them and I do appreciate their power and beauty.


Nice.  I had horses growing up.  I was reading something about Clint Eastwood where it said he developed a mid-life allergy to horses.  Kind of interesting because of all those Westerns he did.  Speaking of Westerns have you ever been down to old Tucson?  Didn't it burn a number of years ago?  I remember going there in the early 80s and they were filming a Little house on the prairie spinoff called Father Murphy.


I've been to Tucson a lot, mainly to see concerts that don't play in Phoenix - but I don't recall the fire?  Westerns are kind of my guilty pleasure and I've also been down to Tombstone to see where it all happened!


Good Morning!  I do enjoy a good football game, but baseball is my favorite sport.


Nice!  It's been fun chatting with you!  Have fun going to those games!  I'm jealous!  Have a good one!


Me too.  Out of the 32 NFL teams though do you have a favorite one?  I like the Browns.


I've been forced to follow the AZ Cardinals, because of my geographical location for years, but they are not my favorite - I suppose I don't have one?  Browns are going to be better, future looks bright which is good because I know it's been a challenge


I actually like the AZ Cardinals too.  My uncle has lived in Scottsdale in the 80s and in the late 90s moved to Chandler where he has lived since then.  So I follow the Cards because of that.  I love the Diamondbacks too!  On another football note....did you know that there's no written rule against female players playing in the NFL?


Awesome AZ connection - Dbacks are my team!  I think there's a HS in Chandler that had a female place kicker - I see no reason why she couldn't play in the NFL if she was good enough and had the desire.


That's pretty neat.  I'll have to ask my cousins and see if they know.  Does Alice Cooper still have Cooperstown out there?  That was a neat place.  There is actually only 11 minutes of live gameplay per NFL game.  Kind of short and they stretch it out to 3 hours.  I would rather spend those 3 hours watching baseball.  lol


Cooperstown recently closed, which is a bummer because we would go there before/after games.  I would totally watch baseball - but I bet there is even less action when boiled down to the same metrics as the 11 min of football action!


Aw man.  That stinks.  I was hoping to go back there one day.  He had one for a very short time in Cleveland around 15 or so years ago.  Do you go to a lot of spring training games or just go to watch practices?  I bet that's awesome!  I do follow the spring training games on youtube when I can find them on there.  I also watch the Arizona Fall League on there.


Being the degenerate seamhead that I am - I watch as much baseball as possible, mostly on MLB.TV, but I am going to a Cubs-Rockies game on Thursday afternoon and then a Dback's game the following weekend.  It's awesome to be in the middle of Cactus League!


I'm happy that Hybrid Theory was so popular. I love Linkin Park and White Stripes and all those other 00s bands -- they were like a holdover from the classic days of grunge.


Yeah, using land more efficiently would make a huge difference.


I thought it was weird that the Hudson Bay region of Canada has less gravity than the rest of the earth.


I wonder why that is? Is the earth less dense there or something?


I don't know, I wonder if you would weigh less there too.


Presumably if the gravity is weaker. I mean, you weight less on the moon, right?


Yeah, that's weird. I also heard that Jupiter's gravity saves us from many asteroids.


That's a good thing. I guess their gravity well vacuums up a lot of income debris.


It's a lot like the Earth's magnetic field protecting us from radiation.


Yeah, apparently the magnetic field reverses every 200,000 - 300,000 years.


I wonder when we're due for another one. Nice chatting with you!


Also happy that Dark Side of the Moon is still popular. You ever try that trick of syncing it up with Wizard of Oz?


No, I've never tried that. What happens when you sync them?


I couldn't get it to work, but apparently a lot of people have -- when you start them both at the same time there are a lot of amazing coincidences between the movie scenes and the songs.


That's funny, I'm gonna try it when I have a chance.


Probably helps if you're stoned, LOL. I'm surprised the earth's day was so short at first. I wonder if the moon's gravity slowed it down.


Yeah I think it did. I heard you can fit all the planets between earth and the moon and still have room left over.


I'm afraid they'd all be one big planet before long though. We really need to reverse deforestation. I recently read where reforestation and rewilding could suck decades worth of CO2 out of the atmosphere.


Yeah, that's pretty scary to think about.  Hopefully something will be done to reverse it.


fox news probably doesnt know much about anything going on in the world except politics. in fact suing the simpsons would have the opposite effect.


And they are both owned by the same corp so bad idea. Did you know kim k was in a musi video?


yeah, she has that look. im not surprised. she doesnt really have talent though, does she?


i think she and kanye are perfect for each other. i ignore them both freely.


Me too! Plus I have no interest in pop culture. None of it makes sense to me. Maybe I am getting too old but man does that stuff suck.


yeah, it starts to seem generic and repetitive. the new stuff is like the old stuff but just a little different. no surprises.


That is a good perspective. I guess I have never been into it. I am even more out of it now. I cannot watch music awards becuase i do not know who any one is.


awards shows always leave me unsatisfied anyway. it seems too political. Anyway, great chat!


I am well, I do watch tv, probably too much. You?


i dont watch much now. i did when i was younger. now i use the internet.


Do you watch on the internet? Netflix or Hulu?


i go to youtube from time to time. i did try netflix at one time. it is very good.


Agreed. Have you ever seen the simpsons or south park?


yeah, i have seen both. i like the old simpsons from the 80s late 90s.


Me too. There's only one simpsons with out bart: Four great ladies and a manicure.


yeah, that doesnt sound like something that would involve bart. I guess he had a role in everything else though.


Yeah. I have seen almost everyone and do not remember that one. I know fox news once tried to sue them for their parodies of the channel.


me too lol I just creep on others, I unadded some friends a little bit ago for a free whopper, it was nice!


I could eat for a while doing that.  LOL


for sure lol, I am sure i could get at least 100 whoppers


I bet myspace is regretting that decision to not buy Facebook now.


for sure, I wonder if anyone still uses it even, last time i heard justin timerblake owned some of it


I dont know.  I remember having a profile on there, but doubt I even remember my login.


for sure lol, That was high school in a nut shell. They could have bought facebook for like 75 million only


Compared to the 104 BILLION it is work now.  Crazy, it really took off.


right! I used to be all about facebook. Good chatting with you!


I do, though I dont do it well.  Lol.  You?


I do it so well when I have had a few drinks lol. I turn into bruce lee or michael jackson


I tend to be more of a Bruce Lee in the dojang then on the dance floor.  LOL


lol, or tupac when he did ballet in high school


Were just adding to the list of people who dance better than I do.  apparently we can add babies to the list too.  LOL


lol me too. My 10 month old can bust a move, it is just natural for babies i think


One thing we have in common is I smile when I hit the beat too.


I do.  I am a bit addicted I think.  How about you?


Hello!  What do you think about the moon?


It probably was.  You know I was thinking about those interns selling stolen moon rocks that you mentioned before.  I've heard that moon dust can cut through kevlar like material and is harmful to us.  I wonder if people got hurt or sick from the rocks.


No kidding? Hopefully they didn't inhale the dust.


Yep, you can get a disease called moon hay fever.  I don't know just exactly how bad it is to us but they say it's harmful.


I wonder what the mineral composition is that causes it? It sounds a lot like asbestos or talc.


That's a good question.  I wonder why they don't research about it's cutting capabilities too.


Sounds like it might have a lot of industrial uses.


That's what I was thinking too.  Do you ever wonder what keeps the flag on the moon from falling down?


I think it's got a wire in it to keep it unfurled?


Does it?  I started wondering after hearing about the dust being able to cut through kevlar. I just wondered how the flag pole isn't being cut.


I guess the dust just lays there and doesn't move, so there wouldn't be any abrasion.


I like seeing it out my bedroom window when it's full. Funny that NASA interns tried to sell stolen rocks. Reminds me of the subplot in Jurassic Park.


Yeah I'm sure that's right. I just watch way too much science fiction lol.  Well, it's time for me to go.  It's been great chatting with you! Have a great day!


NASA interns tried to sell stolen rocks?  I had no idea!


Yeah, that's a premier quality grift. I read that before the fall of the USSR some Soviet soldiers in Czechoslovakia actually sold one of their tanks on the black market to get money for alcohol.


That's interesting.  Did you know there's evidence of life on Titan, a moon of Saturn?  It's methane based life but life nonetheless.


That's fascinating! I never heard about that. I absolutely need to Google and find out more about it. I think Earth life originally evolved in a methane-heavy atmosphere.


Hmm, that's possible.  Have you heard about Mar's moon phobos?


No, I haven't? They were photos of Mars's moons?


Oh no, I meant the name of the moon is Phobos.  It's 1/3 hollow and some believe it to be artificial in origin because of this.


Sorry, I misread. I do remember in KS Robinson's Mars trilogy there was a big orbital colony inside Phobos, so maybe that was based on the idea of it being hollow.


Hi! did you follow the bill cosby trial? it was so sad and shocking.


same! i didn't know that he was a simpsons fan. Seems unlike him.


Now that you say it I kind of remember.  I think fame goes to these peoples heads.  No one ever says no to them, next thing you know that want to bring their llama with them.


That was so interesting, him insisting on bringing a llama to the studio with Freddie Mercury.


I think I'd cancel if someone made that request of me.  I certainly wouldn't want to travel with him.


God no, can you imagine living in a place like Iceland that has no public rail service? As a new yorker, i live on the train


I guess you have to fly everywhere.  they should have plane stations like metro stops.  No trains where I live, but I did used to live in D.C. and used the metro all the time.


Do you drive a lot? thank god we're not spending so much to travel across  Japan... 300!


Just about everywhere I go I have to drive.  If I were in Japan I'd avoid the highway at all costs.  They do have those bullet trains though, I'd bet they are expensive too.


I want to check out the dutch bus that travels at 160 mph! would save so much time.


It's fine going 160mph, but you can only go as fast as the traffic in front of you.  There would be no running after the bus if you just missed it.


I was kind of aware of it, but I didn't follow the details.  He was convicted, right?


Ha that's true!!! but i hate the commute time, although it does let me catch up on reading.,


Just no biographies of Cosby or Jackson!


ha! definitely not. I usually read on my phone. did you know the iphone has more computer power than the entire us nuclear icbm deterrent.


That's amazing.  Think of all the things possible with that much power, and all ost of us do with it is take selfies.


Ha! i must say i'm guilty of that and taking pictures of my dog obsessively


It was very good talking to you, you're very efficient with your replies, have a good day.


Yeah, it's pretty crazy that he was able to get away with drugging girls in their drinks for YEARS. Abusing 19 women is a lot to get away with. It's sad hes only getting in trouble now at 80


I know, it seems it went on for 25 years.  It's hard to be believe when you are talking about a famous person.


I have no sympathy for him, he tried to get out of it because the statute of limitations expired after 12 years. Thats insane.


It would seem that Michael Jackson got away with things too.  I know that he was never convicted but there seems to be too many stories.


He makes me sick. it's too bad because i really liked his music and loved his dance moves. It just sucked to hear such awful things about him.


I can't say that I was a fan, but I didn't dislike him. There are certainly songs that I like.  It doesn't feel right to play them now.


its so crazy that he wanted to build a 50 foot robot of himself to roam the desert.


Sounds like a horror movie to me.  I'd certainly run if I saw a 50 foot Jackson roaming the desert.


Yeah it seems. During the presentation fo the first iPhone Jobs had to keep many identical one as they kept crashing


Yeah because they kept running out of ram


Yeah , Did you hear of that game in those phones called send me to heaven?


Yes it is the game where you are supposed to throw the phone into the air as high as possible


Yes so Apple went ahead and banned it as it was a hazard


Yeah Do you know when the iphone first came out?


Yes that was back in 2007 and it is all history from there


Somewhat. Did you know you burn more calories watching them?


Yes around 180 of them, good if you are on a diet


Yes all the time. Do you know why NY area code is 212?


Haha I know. Danny in the SHining did not know he was in a scary movie for a while


Yes because it was easy to dial on a rotary phone


I have and if they get stuck together there is no separating them


Yeah. the phone cables lay on the bottom of the ocean and are not really that wide


Yes they are only 2.7 inches wide. Do you have an iPhone or an Android?


An iPhone, do you know how much computing power they have?


Yes more than the nuclear icbm deterrent in the US


Yeah. Did you now women are more likely to have one than men?


Well the brad makes clothes in North Korea and the label says made in China


That is pretty messed up. Isn't false labeling illegal?


I guess it is, maybe they corrected this mistake by now, Pilgrim clothes were full of color as well, they only wore black on special occasions


My childhood drawings speak otherwise lol.


I have a problem with the chat window, I cant really see what I am writting sorry about that, I wanted to ask if you like to wear Trousers


Not really, I just wear jeans and tshirts usually.


A DC judge actually filled a lawsuit against a small dry cleaning company because they lost his pants the sue was of $67 million, seems really excesive


I wear them everyday so I guess I am, I like to wear pants and trousers, I hear they originated in east Asia


I hope he didn't win cause that seems excessive. In any case, thanks for chatting.


Did you know Apple had a clothing line back in the year 1986!


Im not sure, they dont have it anymore but I bet the logo was an important part of the design, would you buy an Apple T-shirt?


Sorry I hit the enter button by mistake, I meant do you know the Rip Curl brand?


As someone who watches the news, they didn't seem to cover the camp fire in California as much as they did the hurricanes of 2017.


Perhaps... And Fox is also owned by the corporation that owns IGN, so they have a huge advantage over the competitors.


Yeah I guess that gives them an edge, you know they wanted to create a channel only for The Simpsons, that would have been great I love that show


I agree. The Simpsons are one of the best shows of all time. I couldn't believe Fox threatened to sue them simply for parodying the network. Which goes back to what you said earlier about trusting the reliability of news sources.


The Fox channel and the Simpsons sure have a weird relationship. Do you use the internet much?


I do as much as I can. I enjoy the endless range of information it provides as well as the apps, file sharing and email services. What about you?


I do, what do you think will happen if the internet ever gets hacked of deleted? I guess there would be a lot of riots and problems right away


I know the Alexandria Library has saved a copy of the internet in case it's ever burned, so there's hope everything could one day be restored, I suppose!


That is a relief! I wonder how much time it would take to restore the internet from that backup copy at Alexandria, it must be a difficult job to do.


I can only imagine considering how massive it is. The internet is so popular, there's apparently 3G cell service as well as internet atop Mt. Everest!


I wonder few people use the serice up there lol, most people dont read the service terms of a mobile plan, in fact only 7% do


I guess nothing sells more than state wide panic, news channels care more about ratings than anything else, I remember the importance they gave to hurricanes such as Irma and Maria a few years ago


I can believe that, sadly!  Are you a fan of concerts by chance? I'll never forget the band Creed putting on a show where four people who attended filed a lawsuit against them. Crazy!


I enjoy attending concerts and yeah I did hear that concert was really bad, its a shame because Creed used to be a great band back in the day.


Indeed. They spent so much time anticipating the effects and such before it actually hit landfall while speculating how much damage they would cause.


I agree, the panic people and dont get me wrong a hurricane is something to be worried about but so are wildfires and other news.


Exactly.  Especially considering wildfires hardly offer no forewarning, as experienced by the residents of Paradise.


Yeah I heard about the fire in that time, the fire took over a big area in a matter of hours and without any warning.


I suppose Irma got the crazy amount of coverage it did because it wasn't too far behind Harvey where as no one anticipated any of the wildfires, sadly.


Yeah, it makes you wonder how reliable news channels are, you know Fox News is watched more than CNN and MSNBC combined! those are crazy rating numbers


So true! Hard to believe they are also available in 86 different countries! That's almost unheard of it seems!


It is! maybe thats why the channel is so popular although CNN and MSNBC are also available in other countries


Hello there, do you know much about the sun?


I think I read that it recently did its first full orbit in 2011, and that was since it's discovery back in 1846.


So it took 65 years, what it takes a year to the earth!!


That is pretty wild when you think about.  Did you know the sun itself accounts for 99% of the total mass of our solar system?


that is amazing, you would think it would be less


Right, and again when you think of it like that, you really start to feel small in all the vastness.


Another big number that will makes us feel small is the sun's mass! 330,000 times the mass of the earth


That is crazy!  And to think that, and then think that our sun is no where near as large as some others too.


That is amazing!!  and to think that it has no solid body but a body made of plasma surprises me !


Yeah that is really crazy!  Well it was nice talking with you today, I hope you have a good day!


Hi, I would like to know more! but I learned that the sun is pretty small compared to other stars , it's even i billionth of the biggest star that has been discovered in the milky way!!


Yeah I read that, really makes you feel even smaller when you consider that!


that is so right!!  To us the sun is so big. Imagine it has a diameter that is 109 times the diameter of the earth!


That is just too crazy, did you know the sun produces enough energy in one second to meet all the energy needs of the whole world for 500,000 years?


those are all big numbers! I was amazed also to learn that a lightening bolt is five times hotter than the surface of the sun


That is truly amazing, and what really is, is that people get hit with those things and still survive somehow!


We can, but we can't stare at the sun! Thank god we have the athmosphere to protect us. And this also gives a color effect, makes the sun look yellow!


That is also true, I think most people would say that it's yellow when asked, but yep it really is white!


Did you know how long took for Neptune to complete the most recent orbit around the sun?


Hi, how are you? Do you like to use computers?


Yes, Amazon really has changed the retail game. Sundays? I didn't think postal workers would ever work on Sunday.


Given the drop in letter mail they need this. Remember when amazon only sold books? Now you can get basically everything there. Stuff I never thought I'd even need somehow gets added to my cart..


Yes, it is quite addictive because it is so easy to get things. And the website makes clever suggestions for you, Soon we will never need to leave the house.


I can't wait for that day lol. They just need to start delivering hot food. You can already get some groceries so it won't be long. They have already passed walmart as the most valuable retailer.


That makes sense. If stuff gets delivered same day/next day, there is no reason to go to Walmart.


The buildings are so huge. There is an amazon warehouse near me. Thousands work there and they have about 30 dock doors. I hear there is a lot of walking on that job though.


Yes, they really have to move around the warehouse quite a bit. I bet there is little obesity there. Good for the waistline!


I wonder if they can take orders home with them? Amazon owns all kinds of things you wouldn't think of, like IMDB why would they want that? I had no idea it was amazon owned and they've had it since 1998!


IMDB is older than the Web. It was on the Internet back in the 1980s. I think soon Amazon will own everything and we'll all have to buy from them.


Everyone thinks that will be bad, and it might be but perhaps it will be good. Or they'll just do even weirder things then they do now. They have that clock that will run 10 000 years built into a mountain.


Hi, all the time. I still prefer a desktop machine to a laptop or smartphone.


Why is that necessary? Will Amazon be around for 10,000 years? LOL Thanks for the chat!


Don't forget to complete your amazon order!


Me too. I like to see the screen and type on a proper keyboard. Did you know that in 1936, the Russians made a computer that ran on water? I wonder what OS it used. LOL


Wow. I did not know that, I wonder what happened if it ran dry? Computers certainly have come a long way in a short amount of time.


Boy, they sure have. In 10 years, computers will be astounding. And maybe nobody will have a job.


Won't need one if computers do everything for us. It's amazing that the space shuttles computer only had 1 meg of ram.


I guess they were very efficient about programming that thing. That is not much RAM at all. But at least it didn't run on water. LOL


True. I would like to put my own machine together again like I've done in the past. These days though store bought computers are so cheap and disposable it's hardly worth the effort. Looking into doing it I discovered someone build a working machine with minecraft building blocks!


That is amazing. That is a machine built entirely with simple parts in software. I guess they really know they hardware!


Yeah. Maybe I will build a machine, but with regular parts. I just found some good deals on amazon, and everything comes so fast. They even deliver on Sundays now.


Yeah, conisdering the size of Jupiter! Have you ever been diving? The author states "Just 650 feet down..." That's so far down!!!!


I have never been diving, but I'd really like to try it. I do know that 650 feet is very far down!


Yeah. On my first dive I went like 75 and freaked out! I ran out of oxygen so quickly... I'm a little better now...


Oh wow that's crazy! Did you know that since jellyfish are 98% water they would evaporate in the sun?


That makes sense but it's still a little surprising.I read there is a jelly fish that is immortal. I gotta know more about that...


lol I've read that too. There's a specific species of jellyfish that never dies. It basically keeps regrowing new cells it's entire life.


I could use that for the bags under my eyes! And my face in general!!!!


hahaha! I also saw that there is a fish called the barreleye that has a completely transparent head which is creepy.


HAHAHA. Can you imagine a human with a transparent head? Walking down a busy street in NYC and there's a dude with a transparent head? So weird!


LOL that would be hilarious! Being able to see their brain and stuff.


I am good. I am excited to dive deeper into the ocean, pun intended!


I agree lol. Did you know the alternative name for the planet is tellus and telluris?


I did not know that. I think I will be using thsoe terms more!


I saw that in 1975 the Soviet Union sent a space craft to the planet Venus. Pretty amazing.


I wonder how it is holding up. The Societ Union's technology at that time couldn't have been good...


I agree. Apparently, they captured the very first images of Venus.


Really? That's a little shocking... considering we beat them into space but since got the moon, they probably didn't want to go there again and chose Venus.


I also read that you could fit every other planet between Earth and the moon which is pretty amazing.


Hello, are you interested in rock music at all?


That's interesting, I never really knew about state songs like that. I wonder what Illinois' is, I know a Hanson song was one of the most requested tracks ever on a Chicago alt-rock radio.


Wow, the Ramones did a total of 2,263 concerts.


I can't imagine doing that many wow. Then again a lot of bands do that. I know Linkin Park did 324 concerts just in one year.


Linkin Park's "Hybrid Theory" is the best selling album of the 21st century (so far).


No wonder they had so many shows then if it was that popular. Sometimes even old bands continue to have success, like Dark Side of the Moon was still one of the best selling albums of 2014.


Pink Floyd is great albeit a bit dark period. The once recorded a live concert without an audience.  Does that count for a live concert?


I think it should! That was an ancient roman amphitheater too right? I wonder how the acoustics are, there's one in Croatia too I believe.


I guess if two 100-year old twins from Japan can do a rap album, why not?


That's true! Although now I think it's easier to get hype because of airplay, back then sometimes people didn't have that. Like Straight Outta Compton had to reach platinum status without airplay support at all!


Yeah, touring was required.  Except maybe for Creed who was so bad they got sued by 4 attendees.


Yes, although the alternative variety.  Can you believe Bon Jovi is 56 years old?


Wow I can't imagine having motivation to keep touring after something like that huh. Anyways it was nice chatting with you, have a good day!


That's crazy! Although it makes sense, he's had a very long career when you think about it. It's probably been like 35 years since his first LP, "Bon Jovi".


He still looks good for his age.  Reportedly, he can still move around like he used to.  I never was really a fan of the big hair era in rock.


Oh yeah I know people who have seen him in person and he still is very light on his feet! From video he almost looks like a skateboarder the way he moves.


It's wild that he once threatened to go country! I can't really picture that.


I can't imagine it either! But I think he could have done it, he's supremely talented. I think when he performed "Who Says You Can't Go Home" it went Number 1 on the country charts.


I also can't believe he played shows for Hillary.


Ahah that's fair, I'd hope he did. After all I don't think he made any political comments to insult her, and even if he made political comments I'm sure she'd agree with them, he is pals with Obama after all.


Yeah, I'm having to rethink him.  I guess he's a NJ boy so it kind of makes sense. Wow, OK has a state rock song.  It's "Do You Realize" by the Flaming Lips?!


Apparently hummingbirds steal spiderwebs, do you know why?


Did you know that bird's bones are hallow?


In order for them to be light weight and fly right


This is true, did you know some birds fly from Alaska to Mexico without sleeping?


I'm not sure. Probably a couple of weeks, right?


That is amazing. i wonder how they stay away so long


It is a nice place to browse cute animal videos


Did you know it is the second largest search engine?


I never really thought of youtube as a search engine before, but that makes sense


Me either to be honest. Did you know Police have their own version called bluetube?


There was a joke in there somewhere.  The satellite of the Earth is the Moon.  The Moon is responsible for high and low tides.


That must be important.    How much of the Earth is covered by water?


About 71% of the earth is covered by water.  Mostly oceans.  Guess what is in the Earth?


I know there is a solid iron inner core.


Yes, solid inner core, a liquid outer core, a zone called the mantle then the crust where people are.


Back in the early earth the day was much shorter, right?


4.5 billion years ago, a day was 5.5 hours long.  So, that is very short.


True.     Did you know that if the earth's history were compressed to a single day, humans would only be around for about a minute!


That is amazing to learn.  I, for one, am glad we will be helium -free by the end of the 21st century.


I know he is 114 years old.  Seems like a nice down to earth fellow.


Cool.     I think I am going to go apply for the Ambassador to extraterrestrials job the UN opened up!   Thanks for the chat!


Fredie lives in South Africa, outside Cape Town.  He smokes home made cigarettes made from news paper.  So there is chemicals in the ink?


Yes, Blom is married to a woman thirty years younger.


Cool.    If he were in the States, he would have seen a lot of baseball in that lifespan!


If he lived for millions of years, he could observe the tectonic plates move around the surface of earth.


True!   Do you know how old the Earth is thought to be?


It was formed 4.5 billion years ago.  So, it is a young planet with lots of density.


Wow that would awesome to see, is he popular for this?


I believe so within the deaf community. Do you know that Aerosmith has made more money from the game Guitar Hero than any album made.


I did hear that, I used to love that game lol! Did you hear about the twins from japan who released an album when they turned 100?


I did see an article to that fact and can't imagine how that must have felt for them to do so. I mean what a great way to spend a birthday, making a album as well as setting a record at the same time for age and doing what they set out to do; pretty cool!!


For sure! I wonder if anyone would do that again. Were you into NWA much?


I am sure somewhere, someone has a goal to surpass the twins! I am not really into NWA much but have listened a time or two. I find it a little bit funny that McDonald's has paid rappers five dollars for every time a big mac is referenced in a song.


No way, that can add up lol. I think I should make a song saying big mac like 1000 times. It will help buy a new car


HA HA HA! I totally agree that would be funny as well. Did you know that the rapper in Micheal Jackson's Black and White also did the theme song for Pokemon; Jason Paige?


No way, I never knew! It was so nice chatting with you!


I agree! Thanks for chatting; have a wonderful day!


Good afternoon! Thank you for chatting with me today! I have a great love of most all music, I do not have any one favorite album though.


Nice, I liked linkin parks hybrid theory when it came out, so many great songs on it!


I find I listen to the top charts from time to time to stay current on what it is the youngsters are listening to but find I love the oldies the best. Like Bob Marley; his hit Legend sits currently at 69.


Wow for sure or Pink Floyd, their album Dark side of the moon has been best selling for like 40 years straight!


I find it interesting that wal-mart will not sell an album if it is not clean; meaning wordage must be appropriate for all to listen.


right, I find that crazy too. So much money lost in profits, especially in rap albums.


I personally think they should sell them and let the customer decide if they do so wish to buy it or pass on the album themselves.


Right, as long as they have the parental advisory label they should be safe to sell and leave it up to the parents


I very much agree with you!! Something I find fantastic is that there is a rapper named Signmark that is totally deaf yet rhymes in sign language. I give huge cudo's to his parents for helping him reach his goals.


Yes. Do you have a favorite type of shoes?


Me too. Ballet dancers go through 4 pair s of them in a week


Wow that is a lot of shoes and I imagine a lot of money as well


Yeah. 5000 year old shoes are more durable than the ones today


WOw we need to crack that secret. DO you know how to keep the shoes fresh?


Yeah you can use tea bags which is pretty genius


I love them . DO you know how the polo shirts originated?


Yes that was all thanks to the famous tennis player Rene Lacoste


quite a bit, have you ever been to Japan?


I have not but I hear it can get expensive if you travel there by car


Yeah it can cost you up to $300 in tolls


Yeah that is quite a bit. In Mackinac Island there are no motorized vehicles allowed


Yeah they get around with horses and bikes and stuff like that


Yeah much better. Did tou know the dutch are creating a fast bus?


Yeah it is supposed to go as fast as 160 mph


Yeah pretty awesome do you know who is the first kind to travel the world?


Amazing that with the level of technology we have, the cables carrying our data overseas are less than three inches in diameter


I personally think that it's to highlight that not everyone has access to this technology and that it shows what life would be like if we were in their shoes.


That is an interesting interpretation.  I use my cellphone a lot, but I definitely could donate a lot of minutes for a whole day of clean water.  I'm not sure whether they will follow through with their goal.


I also think that I could donate about a years worth of water easily per day. Even if the goal is over-exaggerated I think it is a worthwhile cause.


It makes me doubt the cause and I wonder if Unicef is actually doing it/will actually do it.


Another surprising thing to learn that I might be doubtful of is the success of Linkin Park's album


I am also kind of doubtful.  It was an incredibly good album, I actually own it.  But I'm not sure if I believe it was the very top one.


I also own that album, I highly enjoyed it but I believe there have been more popular artists who have outsold the band.


Agreed!  I don't really know the other artists or albums the article is talking about.


Reel Big Fish is a ska band known somewhat for popular song covers. NWA is a rap group that was recently featured in the movie Straight Out of Compton, their most famous member is Ice Cube


I have definitely heard of Ice Cube.  I did not watch the Straight Out of Compton movie, did you?


I agree!  It's so crazy how they lay against the ocean floor.  I'm curious as to how they did that.


I did not see it either, I do really like that he was played by his real life son though


Yes you can definitely see the resemblance. I wonder if he will become a well known actor like his father transitioned to now.


I think it's definitely possible.  I do kind of dislike how easy it is for the kids of famous people to become famous too, though.  They don't have to work hard or really have any kind of talent half of the time.


I could only imagine very carefully and slowly! I wonder what the repercussions of one being severed would be?


I would imagine it would disrupt communications completely.


I wonder if there is a redundancy built into the system to stop that. It could be devastating to the world economy to be reliant on a smaller cable.


I feel like a couple years ago I heard a story about a cable actually being severed and it did disrupt communications between countries for a couple days.


A former roommate of mine works in construction and their company almost cut an optic cable. He told me the company would have been charged tens of thousands of dollars per minute for the outage.


That is insane! I know someone who was fired from an electric company because their work crew accidentally messed up a power line and it was a really big deal.


I cannot imagine how people would react without their phones for an extended time. That's why the UNICEF donation campaign is very interesting.


I really don't understand the concept of what Unicef is doing.  Like what is their goal by encouraging people not to be on their phones?  So people can interact more in real life or what?


Wayne Rooney is a legend and I bet he will change things for the MLS


I guess soccer isnt as big as a sport in the US as it is in England, I would recognize him for sure and ask for an autograph


I would definitely not recognize him.  He would be safe around me!


Yes I love to travel!  I went to Japan but took trains everywhere because it was cheaper than paying $300 in tolls


That sounds like an expensive destination, I would like to visit something local first like Mackinac Island, have you heard of the place?


I have heard there are no cars there - just carriages and bikes!


Yeah it must be a really peacefull place so I would definetely like to visit it in a near future,


Absolutely.  Quite different than the Netherlands where they will have a bus that goes 160 mph!


Thats really fast, that must be the fastest commuter bus in the world, I would like to be like the first king of Hawaii, he traveled all around the world, awesome thing to do


Yes that is really cool.  Now there are apps and video games which let you feel like you are traveling.


Yes I was excited for the DC United when he joined their team


Yeah, travel has become easier and you can always use your credit card and pay for your travels later.


I bet his contribution is goint to be great, his being humble about his transfer, the whole team, the fans knows he is the superstart but he thinks himself as one more member of the team


Yeah  he played 16 years in England and then just decided to come over here.,


Yeah and he won five titles with one of the best teams the premier league has, Manchester United, hopefully he can be as good as he was in the Premier league at the MLS


Yes I think he is going to do a great job.  They are paying him 2.7 million so that should be good motivation


That would motivate me for sure lol, I wonder if he has some regrets though, its not the same playing for a club like Mancheter United as coming to play for a team to the MLS


That is true.  And he was shocked by the heat over here as well.


Yeah the envirement must be really different, lets hope he can adapt to live there and hope D.C. United can win a championship with Rooney at its side.


Yes he has more twitter followers than everyone else combined but he likes being able to go out to dinner and no one recognizes him.


Good Morning!  Basketball is my 3rd favorite sport, but at least March Madness and the NBA playoffs are coming up!


Our local NBA team here in Phoenix is a dumpster fire - do you have a favorite team and how are they doing this season?


I like the San Antonio Spurs.  Did you know that Tim Duncan sacrificed money to stay in school instead of going straight to the NBA?


I remember that - it was a promise to him mom/family to finish college right?  Amazing how the Spurs got The Admiral and then Duncan in succession


True.There are some good people that are athletes out there.  In the NFL there is a wide receiver that leaves his cleats on the field after every game to make people away of homeless people with no shoes.


Pretty sure that was Steve Smith - great guy, fierce competitor, and didn't really want any attention for himself, just for his cause.


Yes it was.  With as many ballet shoes as dancers go through in a week, seems like they could do something like that too.


I knew some dancers in school and those ballet shoes, pointers, really messed their feet up!  Painful to see


I never thought about that.  I guess that's why they go through like 4 pair in a week.


That does not surprise me at all - not very durable, maybe there's a correlation there?  Pretty sure construction boots will last years and of course tennis shoes last a while


If shoes were made like they were 5000 years ago they'd all last.  Apparently 5000 year old shoes perform better than modern shoes.


Good morning!  March madness should be good this year.  Did you know that the dunk shot was banned from college basketball for over ten years?


Oh man, I'd hate to get a whiff of a 5,000 y/o pair of sneakers!


They'd definitely need some dry tea bags!


I think the dunk being banned had more to do with the dunker - Kareem, than the shot/technique.  He was so dominate and innovative that it created an unfair advantage/balance


You could be right about that.  Still, to ban it for ten years?  Why not just ban it until he graduates?


Like the NCAA admits it was wrong with anything in a timely manner?!?!?!  Kinda like why the federal government thinks pot is as dangerous as heroin...


good point.  thinking of government, did you know that the supreme court has a basketball court at the top of their building?


The Highest Court in the Land!  (No pot pun intended)  Although, I don't see RBG crossing Clarence Thomas over and dunking on him!


I find it hard to picture them playing at all to be honest!


For sure!  I also find it hard to fathom that Jim Naismith, the inventor of Basketball had a losing record KU - he invented the game!


Oh, I know what you mean there! I can't see how you can invent a game and then not be any good at it!


I bet it was almost comical in how lopsided it was, college is always like that, but not to that extent


Yeah. Did you know that the University of Iowa's locker room is painted pink, on the visiting teams side of course?


I did not know that, that is hilarious, I wonder if their home record shows that it makes any type of difference?


I'm curious to that as well, would pink paint really make a difference in play?


Maybe it actually makes them more upset and angry!


Yes which would be doing the opposite of their intentions, too funny. Alex Smith received his bachelor's degree in only two years, I wish I could do the same.


I do too, he is a very bright person! QBs have to be very smart


I agree with that, the game is centered around the importance of the QBs plays. They are the leaders of the offensive team after all.


They are still sort of underpaid in my opinion. I think that it is crazy that bowlers used to make more than football players!


Wow, that is new to me. Bowling is so much easier to play I would think.


I'm good how about yourself? Do you like football?


I think so too, or at the very least it is certainly safer!


I love football, I am a big Eagles fan, still excited about the superbowl win over the Patriots!


Cool, I'm not a big fan but I do tend to watch sometimes, especially the Superbowl. It is interesting that Baker Mayfield almost quit football to become a competitive gamer.


I have heard that as well, I know he was very good at Halo!


Oh yes, he claimed he could beat anyone at halo 3 at the University of Oklahoma!


I believe that, if he is good enough he could have made a living from it!


Yes I agree. I heard the highest score ever in football was 222-0 in 1916. Wow that is a crazy score.


That was a college game right? I had seen a video about that before


Yes Georgia Tech defeated Cumberland. Interesting game i bet.


I have some friends that say a lot on facebook and some that argue. I sit behind my computer and what the awkwardness unfold and stay quiet, you?


Lol, I'm so quiet that I tend to never post or even react to anyone's comments, but I guess I still want to have a Facebook and see what people have to say. I have a particular friend who always shares news articles, so it's like the only way I get the news anymore.


Right, I like facebook for the news and seeing my family members grow up and such. Did you know myspace could have bought it in 2005


I bet they're kicking themselves for letting that deal go by, huh? Is Myspace even still in existence?


I doubt it lol, last I heard Justin Timberlake part owned it lol.


I agree. I'm actually surprised to learn that Facebook has 2.2 billion active users, I just thought that with 7 billion people in the world, more would be on Facebook. I wonder if the other people use something different in their part of the world. I'm not sure what to do when my kids get old enough for Facebook - I feel like 13 is too young to be responsible with an account. What do you thinK?


13 is too young I think, but it is hard to say no. I wonder out of the 2.2 billion users, how many people have multiple accounts, cat fish accounts, or business accounts.


Oh man, I didn't even consider that. I went off Facebook for 7 months a couple years ago when I realized that of all my friends, none of them lived within a half hour's drive of me. Do you find that Facebook takes the place of real life, face-to-face friendships?


It totally does, that is a good idea. I quit once for like 2 weeks and I needed my fix after that two weeks, quite sad. It was so nice chatting with you, have a great day and weekend!


Yep, I have decreased my use as of late, but still using it. Have you heard of burger kings former promotion?


No! I had no idea, but I'm sure I could've taken advantage of that. I still use it almost daily, but have already decreased my friend list for privacy reasons.


Right, I don't like what they are doing for privacy! I wish i could delete 100 friends to get 10 whoppers!


I've got myself down to 85 friends, and still sometimes feel like that's too much. Did you know about Iceland using Facebook to rewrite their constitution?


Nice I think I am just at 200, I have a big family. Do you know facebook is blue because zuckerberg is color blind


No, I didn't know that - but can totally understand why he did it that way. Also I had no idea the 'like' button is illegal in Schleswig-Holstein in Germany. I'm just glad they have other reactions now besides 'like.'


That needs to be liked lol. I feel that is illegal in general, what do you think.


Having a like button? I don't know about illegal in general, but it certainly makes for a situation where only folks who agree with you tend to make their voice heard. My friends list is extremely divided between liberal and conservative friends, and they don't tend to talk to each other because of how polarized the discussions are. Do your friends tend to have heated discussions on facebook or stay quiet?


I've never seen either season of Westworld, have you?


I'm not sure but apparently there's a ghost in this show?


Yeah and apparently when Family Guy first came on, the Simpsons crew gave the producers a gift.


I do not believe it, haha. Well, this is something fantastic


I think it's cute. But not as crazy as they're saying robots can be controlled using rat brains. The thought of that is amazing.


I didn't know there were no snakes in New Zealand.  That sounds like the place to be.


Nothing, nothing snakes? Wow, that's good


I know. But I think one of the craziest things is that the US military uses an Xbox controller to direct one of their robots. Anyways, have a great night.


I watch a lot of Netflix, I wonder if it's on there. It stars Even Rachel wood though. I liked her in Across the Universe


Well, I also see this a lot, and I enjoy many other things, but I had not heard about this


Oh ok. I think the show is about robots coming to consciousness, sounds like my kind of stuff


Oh I understand. I've seen movies like that, like for example a call chapie. It's excellent, explain what you want to define me


I've heard that was good. They're comparing the faceoff between the two antagonists to the duel between Walter White and Gus Fring in Breaking Bad. That's the best show ever.


Yes? Talk to me a little more about this, excuse me, I'm not very knowledgeable but I'm curious


I don't know much about it but I hear the writing isn't all that great though


They sound pretty cool. I saw the movie Starship Troopers, but never read the book.


Did you know the inventor of braille was 15 when she did it?


Louis Braille. Just imagine how many lives she's helped because of it.


Interesting. That was a great invention. Did you know that the emporer of japan is a scientist?


I had no idea. I heard of a coach in the NFL being a rocket scientist. The first ever.


Yeah, I've heard that too. By the way have you ever read the book Ender's Game?


Well, it is a military book. Apparently they use it in the USMC. Well, nice chatting with you.


I've still got time. Did you know George R. R. Martin began writing by selling monster stories?


It's okay. I wish they would treat their workers better. I like that other companies price match Amazon.


Well, nice chatting with you. Half of that didn't come fully through for some reason.


Me too. I wasn't aware that IMDB was owned by Amazon.


Did you know Amazon holds a patent on 1-click buying? Other companies have to pay them to have that


Interesting. Apparently, the workers walk 7 and 15 miles as each part of their daily shift.


Makes sense given how big Amazon is now. Did you know Amazon started started as an online bookstore?


Yeah, I actually new that. They also get a special deal with USPS>


They're also the largest provider of cloud infrastructure. That's impressive given how big cloud computing is.


Not really. I used to do, but I lost interest as I grew older. I wish I had
one of those reading bicycles that schools have now,


How's it going? Do you watch much tv? Apparently there is only one episode of the simpsons without bart in it


Yea, the Republican party was founded in 1854


Did you know that every US President with a beard was a republican? Hahaha


That's pretty crazy on Republican's have beards, I wonder why no Democrats grow out the facial hair


Hahaha, you are right, I was thinking the same thing. That sound Interesting to me and gave me a laugh at the same time.


I found it funny Harry Truman didn't want to be photographed riding dumbo in order not to be associated with republicans


Do you know I have heard this time after time that the taller candidate has won US President election 75% of the time.


No, that's pretty crazy. Maybe that's why voter turnout hasn't breached 62.8% in the last 100 years


Yes, that's probably true, during 2012 Us international electoral were block from the polls in 9 states.


I wonder which nine states blocked the international electoral observers?


I am not sure, I don't expect a deep answer from you, but do you agree with the wall being built?


I like watching TV, I sometime watch the simpson. I didn't know I though bart play in all the episodes.


Don't really care if Mexico pays for it. Well I got to go, nice talking with you


Well there is like 600 episodes of the Simpsons, I think Pokemon is the only show with more with over 750 episodes


Wow, that a lot, I have never seen the Pokemon, I have played the game with friends. Have you ever used the name telly in place of TV?


Yea I've called it telly, or maybe I called it tele, I don't know it there's a difference


Have you ever seen South Park? if you did what do you think about it, did you like it or it didn't Interest you?


Yea, I remember watching the family guy episode and the controversy it caused, along with the producers getting flowers from the Simpsons


Yes, I just realized about pokemon, 50 episodes for 16 years straight, that's a lot.


Yea, a hell of a lot more than the 10 episodes of 'Days Like These'


Did you know that there was a President that wasn't republican or democrat? I though all Presidents was one or the other.


Nice. Have you hear of the highest court on the land?


Hmm Not sure of where that is. Do you like rap music?


I do I like the guys like Tupac and Eminem and you?


Yes me too.Do you know who the fastest rapper in English is?


Hmm I do not know that but I do know that Tupac's music is in the library of congress, Who is it?


It is noclue and he raps at 14.1 syllables per second. WHy is it in the library?


Wow that is amazing, It is in the library for cultural significance


Nice that makes sense, he has revolutionized music in a way


True. Did you know Eminem wanted to be a comic book artist?


Yes and his favorite character is spiderman


Yes but he did great in music too so that is good


Me too. Do you know who Kareem Jabbar is?


Not sure I know of him, is he famous for a particular thing?


Yes he was the guy that used the dunk shot so much that it got banned eventually for a while


Wow. Did you know Space Jam is the highest grossing basketball movie ever?


Wow that is amazing. Do you know who invented the sport?


Actually I do not? Was it someone we know?


It was James Naismith , he was a coach at U of Kansas and the only coach there to lose


Wow crazy. Along with volleyball, they were invented at the YMCA


Doesn't she make 2x his salary? Power couple


yeah! I would love for my wife to make double what I make. I am not some macho guy, I am a capitalist above all!


Speaking about Brady, I heard he never ate a strawberry. Seems a shame. I wonder if he doesn't eat it to say he never has


He has some crazy diet. He likes avacado ice cream. Yuck!


I actually have never tasted it so I can't really say. Sound healthy in a way tho


it is healthy but when I eat ice cream, I want chocolate and peanut butter and a lot of it. Not avacados...


Personally Green tea is my favorite. By the way, do you like any other QB?


I like Jay Cutler because he makes me laugh.


Really? How so? Personally I respect green ellis since he has never fumbled the ball his entire career


Yeah, he was a really good QB. Jay is married to Kristin Cavalari and she has a show on E which he makes appearances on.


Well thank you for that information. I had an enjoyable chat and I will go check out Jay Cutler after this chat.


I enjoy playing football and have a passing knowledge of the sport


I don't have a particular favorite team, but I prefer specific players like the QB Tom Brady. I tend to like QB since they are the core of any offense


Me too! Did you know tom brady didn't start on his HS team? And he has 6 super bowl championships!


I wonder if the coach hated tom brady to never play his during hs despite having the worst season in the schools history


If he hated him, he would have put him in to get hit over and over. Mabe he liked him...


Perhaps, but to not play him at all the entire season seems a stretch. I mean in 2007, he threw a record 50 touchdown passes


Yeah. He's a really good QB. Probably the best ever. And he's married to a super model!


Morning. How good is the Internet? So good that it can cause real addiction measurable in the brain!


Hi, how you doing tonight? Do you use YouTube?


If YouTube went down, it would be bad. If Netflix went down, civilization would stop.


Yep people would probably riot in the streets haha. Unless they switched over to blue tube, it's like YouTube but only for police, maybe they could get their fix there


The police would need to consult Bluetube to figure out what to do about the riots when YouTube and Netflix went down.


Yep I agree haha I would use it for training for dealing with the crowds LOL. How often do you listen to rap music by the way?


I'm not really into rap. I prefer melody and harmony.


Yeah I don't like rap that much either, I know that Tupac Shakur has music in the Library of Congress, I don't think his music is that good and it doesn't have cultural significance either


He probably appeals to enough people and represents a segment of American society. Not mine, but someone's.


Yep that is probably what it is. Also, Busta Rhymes did a voice in that Rugrats movie, I like Rugrats but I don't like Busta Rhymes LOL


I guess he is good with his voice, perhaps good with voice overs. Anyway, I enjoyed chatting with you!


Yep it's been fun. And watch out for Eminem, his favorite superhero with Spider-Man, very strange I would not have guessed that


Hey there I use you to almost every day. What about you? It's crazy that it's the second largest search engine on the internet


Thanks you too, and I hope if you're ever in legal trouble the judge does not give the ruling as a rap like she did with Eminem!


I'm not surprised. Youtube was bought by google. I guess the search engine technology is great.


Yeah it's crazy that they bought them. I would imagine Google is the number one, and then with YouTube as number two, they are definitely controlling a lot of the internet have you ever seen the music video to Psy's Gangnam Style?


No, but it was crazy popular. I saw a commercial that used it.


Yeah it was definitely popular. YouTube had to upgrade the integer that does view counts on their site to 64-bit just because that video has so many views


Wow. Psy broke the counter! Amazing! I guess I should check out his video.


Yeah you should. You should also check out the music video Baby by Justin Bieber, it's the most disliked music video on YouTube actually


Um, maybe I won't check it out if people hate it. I'm not into Bieber, but I guess people hate him as well.


Yeah some people love him and some people hate him. Did you know that Netflix and YouTube makeup half of all internet traffic? Imagine if one went down, that would be insane


Hi!  I didn't know that there was a type of soccer where three teams play at once.  Wonder how that works?


Can you imagine what that would be like?  Not only messing up in front of millions of people but then having to deal with death threats over it


At least it was presumably the end of the season, and he got paid ... likely a bonus just for the game.  I'd go home and lay low for a while.  As long as the coach had my back, I'd be ok.  What about you?


Yeah, I'd probably get as far away form the spotlight as possible and avoid social media for as long as I could


Do you think such things happen in less popular sports too?  The threats and all?


Maybe.  I'm sure its possible. Probably not as likely since there are less people paying attention.  What do you think?


I think the crowd mentality takes over, even on social media.  If thousands and thousands of people are saying the same thing, you can "get away with" adding just your own small voice.  A good chunk of the world was likely watching that game.  With a smaller game, there's less of that risk.


At least all the threats were being investigated by the police.


What can they do?  Track people down through twitter?  And there is no way to pin anything on a "leader" when its just a mob.  What do you think of the policing coming down hard on just a handful as an example to everyone else?


Well they can track down certain individuals I guess.  How to prosecute a Mob mentality is a big question facing society in general right now.  That crap is all over the internet.  I don't have answer for that one


My tactic is to downplay the mob ... treat it like it doesn't really matter.  Online, it's all pixels.  And over the whole planet, there is no way that whole mob can "come get me." It's just too big to pose a real threat.


Fascinating.  I imagine the better two of the teams would just try to put it past the weakest defense.  Or maybe the scoring is different?


It effects how people think and eliminates empathy from human interaction.  That seems dangerous to me, but I don't really know anything lol


Don't be hard on yourself.  I don't think many experts have workable solutions.  And you have concrete experience, just in seeing it happen and perhaps in feeling it yourself.  We have to talk about these things so they don't weigh us down ... just don't dwell on it, like Liverpool players aren't.


I couldn't agree more!  Have a great day!


Yeah, I was thinking maybe the scoring would be different.  Who knows?  Could be three goals on the field


I had figured that ... like a triangle or hexagon.  I know there is 3-person chess too ... lots of variations.  For real, though group play for soccer and goal differential often decide winners among three or more teams.  I'd think they would do something similar, but just all within the same match.


That must cool to watch.  I wonder if it's played in any leagues in the world?


Not likely.  But we should get a local league to try it out!  It champions league.  People get so serious with the top level of play.


Yeah, that'd be cool.  I know those soccer fans can get crazy!


Can you believe that fans would send death threats over poor performance?


It actually doesn't surprise me.  Some sports fans can take things way too far.


Well, it happened for the recent Champions league losers, Liverpool, and specifically their goalie who made some big mistakes.  People take such things way too far.


I dont doubt it i dont think they have a heart so...


I wonder if scientists have studied their genes.  Some people want to be immortal.


Well, i think the best bet for that will be to look at the zebrafish more closely!


Well they 84 percent of the counterparts for human diseases


I see.  I'm amazed though.   We are so different from the zebrafish.


Thats why alot of secrets lie in the genes


Apparently, the black swallower fish can eat prey twice its own length and ten times its weight.  That is odd.  I do not want to be near that fish.


My son likes it more than I do.  I like movies produced by Marvel Studios.


There are so many interesting facts about fish.  I wish I could chat longer.  However, it is getting late.  I would like to say good night and it was truly nice chatting with you.


That's cool. Did you know that Marvel goes by Marvel Cinematic Universe too?


Yep and the actor who voices jarvis has never seen the movies!


Really?  That was odd.  Apparently, Avengers:  Infinity War is the first film ever to be shot entirely with digital imax cameras.


That's cool and that the original Incredible Hulk actor has been the voice of the Hulk up to this day since the 70's!!


I like the Hulk. Lou Ferrigno deserves it.  When I am angry at work, I want to become the green giant.


Yeah hahaha oh wow, did you know that the Seahorse is the only fish to have  aneck?


I heard about it.  Apparently, there is a breed of jellyfish that is immortal.


Johnny English Strikes Again was a really funny movie, do you agree


He did, did you know he was afraid of bambi that is really funny


He was so traumatized that he went out to make a career out of horror.


He is one of the masters of terror, do you like drama as well?


Drama is great. Michael caine became an actor because all the prettiest girls at his school were in drama class. That's a good reason in my book.


As good as any, I would have done the same thing, seems like that really paid off not only did he made a lot of money but I bet he had a lot of luck with the girls


He was pretty suave and good looking back in the day. Like Jon Hamm.
