Official SGT ADD thread

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.

I found a place online and got one exactly like hers for $149 but was not sure of the seat size so I paid a bit more for the 20 inch one. I am deeper in debt but hopefully will catch up enough to fix my bed.

Note to self: A large handsome man and two really nice women weigh enough to break a bed frame. Must remember it is two to a bed maximum unless you are dwarves, lol.
Churchy, said large man and his really nice wife have a spare bedframe, but not sure it'd work, as it's a Queen size, not a Twin


For Randy, For Bonny, For Chris...

The venerable 17th-century astronomer Galileo Galilei was honored at a gallery in Florence, Italy, in February to mark the 400th anniversary of his transformative work, which was widely discredited at the time (as contradicting the Bible) and which subjected him to vicious slanders. The exhibit includes Galileo's only preserved body part: one of his middle fingers.


HARRISBURG, Pa. (March 28) - A retired police chief said he was robbed by "probably the dumbest criminal in Pennsylvania," at a police officers' convention on Friday morning.
John Comparetto said as he came out of a stall in the men's room, a man pointed a gun in his face and demanded money. There were 300 narcotics officers from Pennsylvania and Ohio at the gathering.

Comparetto gave up his money and cell phone. But when the man, identified as Jerome Marquis Blanchet, fled, Comparetto and some colleagues chased him. They arrested a 19-year-old man as he was trying to leave in a taxi.
Blanchet is also awaiting trial on four previous robbery charges.

Blanchet was arraigned and taken to Dauphin County Prison. When a reporter asked the suspect for comment as he was led out of court, he said, "I'm smooth."


BITHLO, Fla. -Authorities said a man threw a Molotov cocktail at his neighbor's trailer, but the wind shifted and set fire to two cars, a pickup and a travel trailer in the man's own yard. The Florida Highway Patrol reported that a 51-year-old man got into a fight with his neighbor on Tuesday night and threw the makeshift gasoline bomb.

Authorities believe alcohol was involved. (Ya think?!?!)
hehehehe

The robbing of the police chief at a police officers convention reminds me of a chuck Norris picture. It was a "side story" from the main story of the movie. two "rocket scientests" decide to rob a bar, its a cop bar!

They walk in, and everyone is watching them, as the pull their guns and announce its a robbery, EVERYONE in the bar, including the waitress, pulls a gun on them!!!

Cut to a scene a few minutes later, they are ducktaped to chairs, and the bartender says the station will not send a car, as they think its a joke that somebody would be dumb enough to try and rob the bar!

hehehehehehe

the box spring was done sprung but if I could get about a dozen handsome big men to help me then I could move the spare hospital bed to the office. I could make it fit. I just will never open the closet again but then again I do not go in there anyways as it is leaking and yucky.

Purpura are you hiding from me?

Note to self: Brisket is the best thing for getting hugs and always order the criss cross fries at Taste Pilot. Also never again let a man in your bed unless you have some jacks under the bed.

Anyone up for Yamabuki on the 3rd, dutch treat and my AP discount.

That reminds me of a story from my town a few years back....
Shoplifter at local mall being chased by Security-
He runs out to street, hops in a random driver's car waiting at stop light......
Turns out it was one of our local Sheriff's! :p:
There are a LOT of cops where I live ;)

You're welcome. You said fix. You didn't mention parts acquisition. The wheels can be found cheaper on line. The chair stores charge way too much.

And topic change...

So, today is March 30th and April 1st is just a couple of days away, so, does anyone have any fun jokes they are planning to play on people this year? I may stick POST-IT notes on the bottom of people's optical mice so that when they go to use their computer it doesn't work and they will spend a lot of time trying to figure out why, but won't look under the mouse. If anyone leaves their desk and computer unlocked and I know they are going to be gone for a few minutes, I may take a screenshot of the desktop, set that as the background and hide all of their icons on the desktop.
