if there were no need for 'engineers from the quantum plenum' then we should not have any unanswered scientific questions.

I think about a year ago I went to a big sales training, and for some reason one of the exercises included a yodeling pickle.  And then, lo and behold, I come on to HAF and meet the pickle yodeler himself!  Amazing!

Joe's a voice actor.
I wonder why his screen name is "Joeactor"..? There can't possibly be any connection, no?  ???

I don't have one of those encylopedic memories for things in general, but I do for anything concerning the RMS Titanic, including its blueprints, building, launching, passenger lists/crew lists, and other random and very odd trivia. I suppose you could call it a 'talent', as in my spare time, I'm trying to turn it into a book. A book with a plot that hasn't already been done to death, that is.  :P

Other stuff I can do: crack my knuckles just by moving my fingers, cook decently (especially A.'s favourite 'pasketti'), write essays, and sing happily but sadly off-key in the shower or around the house.

Well, besides my (war) history geekiness, I'm also a Warhammer 40k fluff-nut and spent more money on 28mm scale miniatures then I care to count...and I still need MOAR! :o (That Chapterhouse Land Raider Pre-Heresy conversion kit...*drooool* I need to have two! Seriously, I have two Land Raiders, and I want both of them to look more PH-ish.... and just 25$ a piece, a bargain, if you ask me!)

Also, there are a lot of "You know when you play too much 40k when..."-threads around the forums that us players/hobbyists gather but I think this tops all:

QuoteYou know you play too much 40K when you use your own blood as paint, im a little guilty, cut myself while assembling a wave serpent, ran out of blood red halfway through so i just used my blood, hurt pretty bad too.

And you know when you play too much 40k when the first though you had was "Did it work!?" after reading that...  :o I don't think it would, but I'd be interested to see the results. A whole new meaning to "Blood for the Blood God!" ;D
