A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
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.

That is really adorable, but I suspect it has large fangs underneath those big eyes.....
I admit the only thing I know about Venezuela is that they seem to have a bunch of Skinny Models. Probably from the Poodle Moth sucking out their blood......

Reminds me of a classic line from a movie- (said in a British accent) "What's he going to do, nibble your bum?"

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

I can't wait to see what prosthetics will be in the next decade. The fact that the technology exists to help a dog like this is nothing short of incredible. What a fantastic story.
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?

When I first got my cat Tripod back in 1991, I thought of getting or making some kind of prothesis for her congenital missing left foreleg. But then I thought, I don't have money for it, I really don't know how to go about making one, I'd have to make new ones for her as she grew anyway, and since I figured she was 6 weeks old when I got her, and she'd been doing fine for that time with only 3 legs, I thought why bother? She was the most determined, smartest cat and a wonderful companion to me for 19 years; she's been gone for 4 1/2 years now, and I still miss her, even though her ashes are on my nightstand.

And here I thought all this time that the cat got her name because of her love of photography. :-)

I was asked that a couple of times, actually! There used to be her picture on here, but the last system crash erased it. I would love to be able to post her best picture, which shows her true colors--dilute torbie--but when I tried to get someone at Target to scan it, they tried to remove the protective cover on the photo, which would've ruined it and I can't find the negative of that picture anymore. I have photocopied it, and it comes out fine. I don't have a scanner, and I had been trying to get the photo scanned so I could have a negative made.
