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.

Yes. Chocolate chip cookies made with Hershey's Kisses instead of chips. :D:
Randy
Never heard of Off Road Segways? do they have tougher wheels?
Now that would sound good if I had the ingredients for those cookies, Randy. I don't however, due to the hubby being a diabetic, and he still has a sweet tooth too. Sigh.
Oh look...It's... a night shift for me YAY!

We were looking for to by a Segway, and they have an off-road model, with knobby tires and cargo containers, and you can even get an upgraded battery pack (for more money of course) that will extend the range!

My neighbor sells them and does guided tours in Lahaina. He's also a member of the Segway syncronized demo team that participates in parades. Pretty cool to watch.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.
