Todays Thought
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.

Trigger fish.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Re: Todays Thought
It's actually a kind of fish. Worth googling.
My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

Re: Todays Thought
There's a restaurant in Pensacola called Trigger's that specializes in triggerfish and other seafood dishes. Yummy!

Re: Todays Thought
One time many years ago, my youngest sister went to Hawaii. She asked me what I wanted her to bring back, and I said a Hawaiian dictionary. I'd seen one in the library and it looked interesting. But after she bought it, she lost it somehow, so she bought me a Hawaiian phrase book instead. I don't think she had enough to buy another dictionary. I still have it, it's in storage. But I remember in the introduction that the author asks you to breeze through the name of this little fish, and it was the triggerfish. Then they tell you that an aid to saying/remembering/learning it is to make it into some kind of verse by seperating the word into parts. But thanks to you, Hobie, I finally know what that word refers to--it wasn't translated in the book! :D:
