The Last Word Becomes the First Word

[Compass]

Taste diet cola before you order a lot of it.

[Gravitas]

Taste diet cola before you order a lot of it. It can be a sentence all by its self.

[gmandret]

Coffee tastes good and smells good too!

:Nsalute:

[Senmut]

Too much coffee can be detrimental.

[Compass]

Detrimental, Yoda's wisdom is not.

[Senmut]

Not that it doesn't often seem that way.

[Compass]

Way over that hill, I see the sunrise.

[Gravitas]

Sunrise comes before Sunset

[Compass]

Sunset Over Chicago sounds like the name of a movie.

[braxiss]

movie scripts have gotten lame over the years

[Compass]

Years ago, I was young and foolish; now I am older, and still foolish sometimes.

[Gravitas]

Sometimes I drink too much Pop.

[Compass]

Pop and Ma are nicknames for parents.

[Newton]

parents suck. when the hell is the new series gonna start up again?

[TopGun]

Again the Imperial Naval will feel the wrath of the Rebel Alliance

[Compass]

"Alliance," said Commander Adama, "is the name of my colony of pet ants."

[BlueSquad2001]

I'm a doctor, not a bricklayer! ;)

[Compass]

BlueSquad, you might want to read the first post before you post in this thread. :salute:

[BlueSquad2001]

:D Ooops...silly lil' ole' me!

[StanKross]

Ants.y thats how i feel waiting for the next season of bsg...Coniferous

[Compass]

Coniferous objects appear on my lawn.

[StanKross]

lawn mowers are a great invention

[Compass]

Invention and engineer go hand in hand.

[TopGun]

Hand me the Hydrospanner

[Compass]

Hydrospanners are located in the storage locker on Deck 10, near the bilge pump.

[TopGun]

Pump the coolant into the Brig, Ensign

[Compass]

Ensign, plot a course to the Deneb system.

[TopGun]

System damage Sir

[Compass]

Sir, your wife is on the phone.

[TopGun]

Phone Pizza Hut and tell they to cancel the order

[Compass]

Order the X-wings to proceed.

[TopGun]

Proceed with the attack commander

[Compass]

Commander, your shoelaces are untied.

[braxiss]

untied shoelaces can be hazardes to ones health

[Compass]

Health care is outrageously expensive.

[TopGun]

Expensive products can be found in expensive shops

[bsg1fan1975]

Shops are very quaint this time of year

[Compass]

Year in and year out, history marches onward.

[TopGun]

Onward to glory

[braxiss]

glory is mine

[Slovman]

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the kittens.

[StanKross]

kittens are vile evil little creatures

[Compass]

Creatures and characters live in our imaginations.

[Tiberius]

and in reality

[Compass]

^ wrong game ;)

Reality is discussed by philosophers and physicists.

[TopGun]

physicists say things that quite often go over my head

[Compass]

Head and shoulders, knees and toes, are all a part of me.

[TopGun]

Me me me me me me me me that's all it ever is. Why not join the Rebel Alliance and fight against the evil Empire

[Compass]

Empire and Kingdom shall fall by his sword.

[TopGun]

Sword what Sword, I thought we were using Riffles

[Compass]

Riffles are like Ruffles; they have Ridges.

[shiningstar]

Ridges are just what is needed.

[Compass]

Needed mufflers are missing from the shop.

[TopGun]

Shop till you drop

[Compass]

Drop the pencil.

[TopGun]

Pencil, why would I need a pencil. I have a pen

[CaptainTux]

Pen this story for you? Do your own work you insipid parasite!

[Compass]

Parasite or no parasite, I will think about something that is more Christmasy.

[Lara]

Christmassy stuff would be turkey and ham, and plum pud with brandy butter, gifts in bright paper and carolling in the park for some, and for others, a church service at midnight ..

[conconcv66]

midnight christmas will be over and i can become myself again, a joker a smoker a midnight toker :D

[CaptainTux]

Toker Labs was the nickname for my dorm room in the University of the whitewashed minds.

[Compass]

Minds are not necessarily correlated with brains.

[Senmut]

Brains do not necessarily indicate intelligence, however.

[TopGun]

However old you are, you can enjoy life

[Senmut]

"Life! Don't talk to me about life!"

[Compass]

Life is temporary.

[TopGun]

Temporary messures must be taken to defeat the Cylon threat once and for all time

[Compass]

Time segments can be measured.

[Damocles]

Measured segments in time form discrete intervals called events.

[Callipygian]

Events have been set in motion.

[Damocles]

Motion is kinesis over the interval.

[TopGun]

Interval what about the movie

[Damocles]

Movie "Interval" bombed at the box office.

[TopGun]

office, that is not an office it's a supply cupboard

[Damocles]

Cupboard that is empty of ideas, I wonder?

[TopGun]

wonder Woman is lovely :D

[Damocles]

Lovely is an inadequate word when you mean beautiful.

[TopGun]

beautiful Is very objective

[Damocles]

Objective beaurty is mathematically quantifiable.

[TopGun]

quantifiable, what is this master mind :D

[Damocles]

Mind turns to math when you bend metal-or men.

[TopGun]

Men are from Mars, women are from the Ice World of Jaklanakith 9 :D

[Damocles]

9 is cute and clever; but you must know that it follows 8, and is the opposite of(auf deutsche) ja :D .

[TopGun]

ja ja ja is funny, but it must be weird to see it when you say hello

[Damocles]

Hello should be the first greeting that you use when you meet a stranger and "How are you?" when you see your friend,

[TopGun]

friend, what is the meaning of the word friend. I know not

[Damocles]

Not a jot more will I pay for a Chevy than i will pay for dirt, since there is a functional equivalence.

[TopGun]

equivalence means that sometimes you have to pick up a PPG and blast Londo

[Damocles]

equivalence means that sometimes you have to pick up a PPG and blast Londo


Londo is the one person you DON'T want to blast.

[TopGun]

Blast it Biggs where are you

[Damocles]

You know where Biggs is?

He should have zigged, when I zagged. As Shannon Foraker would say, "OOPS!"

[Lara]

OOPS! indeed, you should have remembered that to survive in a Starwars fighter squadron you need to emulate Wedge

[TopGun]

Wedge Antilles is a Corellian

[Damocles]

OOPS! indeed, you should have remembered that to survive in a Starwars fighter squadron you need to emulate Wedge

Still here. :thumbsup:

Corellian ships are badly designed,

http://www.chienworks.com/~aramisangel/sw/action/droidshipblow.jpg



as anyone who crews one of these attacking vessels will attest.

http://gamma.nic.fi/~mpetays/b5/warlock_lg.jpg

[Lara]

:D :D

attest they might, as long as they survive, otherwise you need the services of a medium. But it explains why Wedge has the skills to get out of a major battle with his astrum intact..

[Damocles]

:D :D

http://www.piett.org/piett/p-fileswedge.html

Intact Wedge's reputation is not; as his aspidistra has been singed on occasion by the truth ;)

[TopGun]

truth it is not, it seems to be nothing more than imperial propaganda. Wedge is a gorram fine pilot

[Damocles]

truth it is not, it seems to be nothing more than imperial propaganda. Wedge is a gorram fine pilot

Pilot of what, the tall story?

http://alumni.imsa.edu/~matth/doc/fun/w/wedge.html (http://)

[Lara]

Story? Slander! there is a fine line between the two when the facts are open to interpretation..

[Damocles]

Interpretation as to Wedgie's skill;
is best seen when he runs instead of aids when Han covers Luke in the deatrhstar drill.

As always:

[TopGun]

Always faithul in Latin is Semper Fi. Coloinal Warriors are without fear for fear is the enemy

Enemy is the guy shooting at you.

or in my case;

http://www.uncomyngifts.com/Main/Recreation_Room/Babylon-5/Toys/Figures/Exclusive_Premiere/Diamond_Comics/Wave-III/b5_shadow.jpg

[TopGun]

case closed, Wedge Antiles is a Rebel Alliance Pilot and Wing Commander and as such is great

[Damocles]

Great in the boasting but less certain in the proving of his boast is ^Wedge^; who got that ^nickname^ from the his(ahem) school experiences, and not from his flying education......

[TopGun]

education education education that's what it's all about

[Damocles]

About two thirds of the way to the truth, Einstein saw that he misplaced a decimal point.

As always;

[Lara]

Always there are many points of view and even the truth can be a matter for debate

[Damocles]

Debate? Here I am trying to fish for ideas and I forgot the bait?

[Lara]

Bait for ideas would not be the same as bait for fish, so hold off on the sardines if you please..

[Damocles]

Bait for ideas would not be the same as bait for fish, so hold off on the sardines if you please..


Please indeed! :rotf: I prefer ideas when I bait intellects of such delphinish wit!

As always. :salute:

[Lara]

Always Obtuse, the Pythian oracle at Delphini was famed throughout the ancient world as a glimpse at true fate. Influential and powerful, the Pythia utter words that could be debated for days.
Appealing to the Gods didn't help, they were indifferent to the suffering of mankind and rarely gave you what you wanted, though they sometimes gave you what you needed. Larson should have read his Greek Mythology more carefully when he named the Commander's son after the God who was a golden youth and an ancient model for Cassanova.. something much closer to how Starbuck started out..

Out of my class am I shown to be, by such wisdom and analysis, Lara,

Just one little tiny (gentle) correction;
Delphic refers to the Delphi oracle;

Delphinic refers to these guys

Delphinic
This is the definition of the term Delphinic

Delphinic (n.) Pertaining to, or derived from, the dolphin; phocenic.

Delphinic (a.) Pertaining to, or derived from, the larkspur; specifically, relating to the stavesacre (Delphinium staphisagria).

From Webster's Unabridged Dictionary.1983

My professor finally told me; if I was going to insist that Z(tau) inertia was described by the interactions of Biggs Darklighter with a top quark(wrong!), then the least I could do was;

know what the Biggs Hoson looked like! :rotf:

Frank; :salute:

[Lara]

Frank, honest, and such a gentleman with the corrections :D
The name of the Delphic Oracle is related to the use of the word Delphini, as the first priests of Apollo to make landfall there were welcomed by the God in the form of a dolphin jumping over the prow of their boat.!

Not saying I'm wrong, not saying your wrong, just that words have a way of interrelating that keep us all learning. ;)

Learning something new, I can add one more mythstake I made, corrected, due to my mythical ignorance! Blame the mechanic in me, for not paying attention when they covered Campbell.....Thank you for the new look at Apollo, Lara. Dolphins? Hey!

[Gravitas]

Always wear a clean pair of underware.

[Damocles]

Underwear gone is, when unaware of underwear.

As always, :salute:

[Lara]

Always wear a clean pair of knickers, my Grandma said, in case you get run over in traffic!!

[Damocles]

Always wear a clean pair of knickers, my Grandma said, in case you get run over in traffic!!


Traffic is incredibly dangerous;

http://www.always-safe.com/grandma.html

especially for Grandmas in December.

[Lara]

December deceasing grandma.... :D :D :D hope someone got the number of teh reindeer..ho!ho!ho!

[Damocles]

Ho!Ho!Ho! Off to the garden I go.

[Lara]

Go to my garden if you would, I have a lot of annoying weeds that could do with some attention..

[Damocles]

Attention is what I wish these guys would pay.

pay-ment for the damage to the truck and utilities will be substantial.. I'd hate to be them when the boss finds out

[Damocles]

pay-ment for the damage to the truck and utilities will be substantial.. I'd hate to be them when the boss finds out

Out of their pockets it came; after the law found who was to blame.http://www.jica.org.kh/bapep/Photo%20Gallery/images/Farm%20ditch%20digging.jpg

[Lara]

:D :D :D

Blame is a corporate bloodsport..

[Damocles]

Bloodsport is a showcase for a rather famous Belgian martial arts kickboxer.

As always; :salute:

[Lara]

Kickboxer bouts can be clever, vicious or skillful. I don't mind the clever or the skillful, but the vicious makes me turn the channel!

[TopGun]

Channel 4 shows Stargate SG-1 in the UK

[Damocles]

UK, the best place to be if you need a friend, the worst place to be, if you make an enemy(next to the Land of OZ).

As always; :salute:

[Gravitas]

Oz could have easily have been named the land of An.

[Damocles]

An open season on ennui, is hereby declared.

[Lara]

declared open seasons are usually bad for something's health..are those poor little ennuii going to be shot, clubbed or chased :D :D It requires a skilled hunter to make a clean and honourable kill.

[Gravitas]

"Kill Bill" was a crazy trilogy.

[Damocles]

Trilogy of horror fiction; the US national budget, an ENRON stock report, and anything written by the New York Post(TM).

As always; :salute:

[Gravitas]

Post ripped off Kellog's.

[Lara]

kellog's cornflakes are a breakfast staple item in our household..

[Gravitas]

Household faries live inside the walls.

[Lara]

walls of a tent are really no walls at all

[Damocles]

All wormholes lead to tau(zero)

[TopGun]

Tau(zero) makes me wonder

[Gravitas]

Wonder Bread makes good toast.

[Damocles]

"Toast a toaster." recruiting slogan for the Colonial Warriors.

[Lara]

Warriors enlist! the war effort needs you..

[Damocles]

"You" is the first word that defines Human, not "I".

[Lara]

I think, therefore I am

[Gravitas]

Am I, who I think I am?

[TopGun]

Am I a Cylon, now that is a question

[Gravitas]

Question not who you are, question who you will be.

[Lara]

Be strong. Be Pure. Be vigilant. Behave..

[Gravitas]

Behave or you will be punished.

[Lara]

Punished in this life is unpleasant enough, punished in the next is a possibility if you believe in reincarnation. Punished for all eternity is a possibility if you do not repent!

[Gravitas]

Repent, and be Baptized!

[TopGun]

Baptized you will be

[Gravitas]

Be all that you can be in the Army.

[Lara]

Army, Navy, Airforce, we got them all in my home town, especially teh support services and contractors. Wer've even got the option on our car license plates to have the defence state on them. Transport, reconnaissance, and hi tech weaponry, long eyes and skilled hands..

[Gravitas]

Hands is the plural of hand.

[Lara]

Hands is the plural of hand.

Hand is the singular. What is the sound of one hand clapping...

[Gravitas]

Clapping is diferent on different planets like Bajor, and Feriginar.

[TopGun]

Feriginar smells really bad

[Cylon Number 13]

Bad is as bad does. To be a Cylon or not, there is no question. To be it is. I am the 13th model of Cylon. But, I am a good Cylon, not bad.

[Gravitas]

Feriginar smells really badBad gas smells.

[Cylon Number 13]

Smells like Kobolian yak in here! :rotf:

[Gravitas]

Here is where I am.

[Cylon Number 13]

Am I a member in good standing?

[Gravitas]

Standing on the shore, I saw Dolphins.

[Cylon Number 13]

Dolphins are beautiful animals.

[Gravitas]

Animals are not always wild.

[Lara]

wild is a state of being that brings fear to the peace of mind of the so called civilised... Hiya CN13, welcome to the word bending threads, enjoy the twisted vocabulary, marvel at the creative spelling as the english language submits unwillingly to our attention

[TopGun]

Attention on Deck

[Cylon Number 13]

Deck-by-deck. I want a deck-by-deck search!!! And bring the prisoner to me when he is found.

[Gravitas]

Found my mind, but then I lost it again.

[Lara]

again I, too, am adrift amid my thoughts

[Gravitas]

Thoughts come to me in the middle of the night sometimes, and I have to write them down.

[Cylon Number 13]

Down I may be, but don't count me out just yet. The night is still young.

[AJMarks]

Young is a mental state of mind.

[Gravitas]

Mind over matter.

[Cylon Number 13]

Matter to energy to matter conversion is not possible at this time.

[Gravitas]

Time will tell.

[Cylon Number 13]

Tell me who you really are! No more lies. I want the truth.

[Damocles]

Truth is a three-edged sword, that no Vorlon can explain.

[Cylon Number 13]

Explain yourself, mister. I want some answers.

[Gravitas]

Answers I don't have, I can not give.

[Damocles]

Give the person the question and request, politely and respectfully, a solution. In good time time you will have your response. Demand an answer with arrogance and the only result you will get will be----nothing.

As always;

[Cylon Number 13]

Nothing worthwhile ever comes easy. If it did, we would always get whatever we wanted.

[Gravitas]

Wanted dead or alive.

[Damocles]

Alive is hope.

[Gravitas]

Hope & Faith

[Damocles]

Faith yes, but the greatest of these is charity.

[Gravitas]

Charity begins at home.

[Damocles]

"Home is where the hearth is"....is the corrected version of the saying that is often misquoted as being "home is where the heart is".

[Cylon Number 13]

"Home is where the hearth is"....is the corrected version of the saying that is often misquoted as being "home is where the heart is".

Is it now? I didn't know that. I guess you learn something new everyday.

:D

[Damocles]

Everyday you should learn something new, like that the foam that possibly is the irreducible interval of space/time; is 10E-15 of the Planck Constant which is three magnitudes larger over the interval than I thought it might be.

[Gravitas]

Be all that you can be in the Army.

[Damocles]

Army ants average about a centimeter and a half in length and can lift in excess 100x their own weight.

[Gravitas]

Weight Watchers

[Damocles]

Watchers never see kettles boil.

[Lara]

boil the water up and warm the pot well. Don't be stingy with the leave and break out the good shortbread, its a good time for some tea and sympathy

[Damocles]

Sympathy is so important. If you don't have any for anyone or anything, then you are incomplete as a person, and somewhat(shudder) ill. You need to examine yourself closely and adjust your attitudes so that you do no evil by accident or design.

[KamikazeAthena]

Design for me a new spleen!

[Cylon Number 13]

Spleen! You need a new spleen? Well, I will see what I can do. Maybe I can create you one that is synthetic. After all, it works for me.

[Damocles]

Me and my shadow......

http://www.babylon5.hu/galeria/images/SHADOW.JPG

[Cylon Number 13]

shadow of doom

[Gravitas]

Doom Patrol

[KamikazeAthena]

Patrol Master General, quick, get this man a new spleen.

[Damocles]

Spleens are a spare part you can't do without.

[Cylon Number 13]

Without tylium, the ships in the fleet go nowhere. Find me some tylium. Now!

[Damocles]

Now where is the tact in tactics? It's called gentle courtesy.

[Gravitas]

Coutesy wake up calls are sometimes offered at Hotels.

[KamikazeAthena]

Hotel swimming pools are sometimes shapped like spleens.

[Gravitas]

Spleens are filters.

[Cylon Number 13]

Filters on cigarettes when disposed of are called butts. :LOL:

[Gravitas]

Butts of Riffles are made from hard woods.

[Cylon Number 13]

Woods, Tiger Woods! Agent 007-iron. :LOL:

[Gravitas]

Iron is a big part of blood.

[Cylon Number 13]

Blood-- I need a blood sample to tell whether he is human or not.

[KamikazeAthena]

Not his spleen!

[Lara]

Spleen is an organ you can do without of you have to, but it was my gall bladder that had to be sacrificed after a recent infection took hold. All better now, with just four little holes to show for it. Now I'm missing it, my tonsils and my adenoids I'm no longer constructed to original specification... :D :D

[Gravitas]

specification of a spleen is long.

[Cylon Number 13]

Long time no see, old friend.

[Nighthawk]

Friend or foe. Which are you?

[KamikazeAthena]

You took my spleen!

[Lara]

Spleen! Again! What is this sudden fascination with offal?

:D :D

[Nighthawk]

Offal?! What were the entrails of animals doing on my ship? Were they going to be on the menu this evening?

[Cylon Number 13]

Evening is a time to reflect on the events that happened during the day.

[Gravitas]

Day of remembrance.

[Senmut]

Remembrance via nemonics.

[Cylon Number 13]

Nemonics (or rather mnemonics) is the art of assisting the memory.

[Lara]

memory is storage for later retrieval. Selective memory is a survival tool

[Kronus]

Too many petaQ Ferengi makes a cranky Klingon!

[Cylon Number 13]

Klingon Generals are seasoned warriors.

[Kronus]

Warriors, true warriors fight with honor!

[Gravitas]

Honor is for the strong.

[Kronus]

Strong foes makes stronger warriors.

[Gravitas]

Warriors are people who habitually engage in war and/or are skilled in the waging of war.

[Kronus]

War is a time of glory and conquest, a time of great sorrow and joy, a time of ones weakness and a time of great stength

[Cylon Number 13]

Strength, true strength comes from within.

[Senmut]

Within lies honor, but what do others behold?

[Cylon Number 13]

Behold.... the power of cheese!!!! :LOL: :D

[Gravitas]

Cheese and Crackers

[TopGun]

Crackers Gromit, we forgot the Crackers. Arrrgh

[Gravitas]

Arrgh! I forgot the wensleydale!

[CaptainTux]

wensleydale cheese is overpriced.

[Lara]

overpriced is not a term applicable to pure bliss.. a good wensleydale and a crisp green apple is better than truffles

[CaptainTux]

Truffles by themselves are not as good as say....Truffled Eggs or truffle Pâté.

[GDafi]

Pate is enjoyed by the nouve rich

[CaptainTux]

Rich people reminds me of rich cuisine, they both give me the runs.

[Gravitas]

Runs away from the thread.

[CaptainTux]

Thread a needle sounds weird, I am not sure thread is a verb.

[Lara]

verb is doing word, so when you pass the cotton through the eye of the needle you thread it

[CaptainTux]

It is a confusing thing, grammar.
