He probably has another bastard coming out of one of his secretaries any minute now.

Anyone have a Galaxy light projector? Thought it might help me sleep. Toss on some Witcher 3 Blood & Wine music and sounds with the lighting and was thinking maybe I could sleep really good. Or stay awake staring at the lights all night

Blackhawk · Post by **Blackhawk** » Tue Nov 15, 2022 8:18 pm

No. Generally, less light and white noise are better for sleep than music and flashing lights. I have blackout curtains, I have covered or dimmed my LEDs. It is pitch black at night, and still very dark during the day until I open the curtains. For sound I play white noise (well, rain and crickets) through an old phone hooked up to an old set of computer speakers.

dbt1949 · Post by **dbt1949** » Tue Nov 15, 2022 8:50 pm

I use a big fan in wintertime for the noise and I like the air blowing on me. My CPAP make noise too.
In the summer I got my air conditioner.

1. Why the fuck do some women's athletic outfits expose their abdomens, while traditional men's certainly do not? Do women breathe through their stomachs or something? Has this biological fact been hidden from me all my life? Was I absent the day it was discussed in science class?

2a. Why are the daily soup(s) offered by many diners and lunch spots so boring and basic? Who's ever been excited to order a bowl of beef barley?

2b. Why is the combo pie offered at all the diners in my folks' town always and only coconut cream? Is it especially inexpensive to bake?

3. I'm half a cultural chicken and have never given Thai food a fair try, but we got a fast casual place next door and I'm really loving its pad see ew as well as a beef stir fry I ordered with spicy peanut sauce. I know it's not totally authentic, but whatevs.

I have one of these Sky Lites. We stayed at an Airbnb that had one and I found it soothing, so Wife got me one for my birthday. I keep my office dim, and it's nice to have a colorful night sky overhead. I prefer a blue-green nebula with just a bit of red and only a smattering of faint stars.

Wow that is a big step up in quality.

Which is better -- to be the least of the Hemsworth brothers or the least of the Baldwin brothers?

Sudy · Post by **Sudy** » Wed Nov 16, 2022 11:00 am

My bias may be clear from the other thread, but Hemsworth hands down. Luke Hemsworth is unconventionally handsome and secretly the best-looking of the Hemsworths. And he's ten times as handsome as Stephen Baldwin. In terms of aspects of life beyond physical appearance, I have no idea. At least Luke's brother never shot anybody (that we know of).

Quick: Rosanna, Patricia or David Arquette? Don't think about it....JUST REACT!

Future polls will include Carradines, Bridges and Fondas.

20 years ago Rosanna. Knew a girl in my area that looked just like her.

Its really is a classic. Soon as I hear it Im back there in the 80s and all those memories of the time.

Too bad they didn't get Rosanna for the video. But that IS Cynthia Rhodes & Patrick Swayze in the music video who would again dance together in Dirty Dancing.

Unless you need to grate some cheese. Then it's handy to have Alexander around.

On a serious note regarding the insanely talented Skarsgårds: is it just me, or does Stellan still have an accent in any role he does, while his kids seem able to talk without any sign of one in any movie in which they play an American? You'd think as many years as Stellan has been in films and tv shows that he'd have the same ability.
