Just Because...
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.

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

Re: Just Because...
STOP!!!! The weekend is here and no lock on the baby animal videos button!
Hubby and I were just at the Monterey Bay Aquarium in October and took a behind-the-scenes tour where they mentioned we couldn't go look at the sea otters because of "a baby they had back there". I thought it was just policy, but did you warn them?
Absolutely Fabulous Aquarium, we spent about 4 hours there. I was also thrilled to see several Sea Otters in the ocean nearby

I raced on Monterey Bay for years. We'd always see otters on the course. That was good because, if they were gone. it meant a shark was in the neighborhood.DisneyMom wrote:I was also thrilled to see several Sea Otters in the ocean nearby

Time for another Christmas kitty video!
RIP Colonel Meow, the angry looking big gray cat; apparent heart problems at age 2 1/2. Guinness Record holder for longest fur (9").
Also, Grumpy Cat, aka Tarder Sauce, will have a new movie out soon.
