Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Re: Canadian Temperature Conversion Chart
Based on anecdotal evidence when the temp hits -600° Fahrenheit the Canadians head to Maui.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

I've always heard that at -500, hell freezes over, and the Lions win the super bowl ... Detroit is north of Canada, they count, right?

Detroit IS north of Windsor, Ontario. However, Windsor is the armpit of Ontario, so being near them is nothing to brag about !hhsrat wrote:I've always heard that at -500, hell freezes over, and the Lions win the super bowl ... Detroit is north of Canada, they count, right?

"A little swordplay, now and then, keeps my mind off sheep!"
"You're messing with my Zen thing, man."
"Dreams are as portals,
flat visions of misty places,
fragments bound below my surface,
but I can write dreams,
they flow from me,
inscribed but now unbound,
I touch them,
and they are real,
and they are real."
