No, silly, not as in fingers and toes, I’ve got the normal 20 of those. I’m talking post count! OK, so my last attempt at a post count party didn’t work too well, but hey, you’ve just got to respect this! I don’t keep much alcohol around, but feel free to bring your own-- just don’t puke on the carpet if you do. Clothing is optional, especially for flirtacious women. Snacks are in the fridge, help yourself. The baby oil is in the medicine cabinet, and the Twister is in the hall closet. Yes, I know that’s not the standard spinner that came with the game, but why should we restrict ourselves to “hands” and “feet”? Have fun, and do your darndest to keep me from accomplishing anything at work today!
WOO HOO!! I brought my stereo and CDs!
What kind of music is appropriate for Slippery Twister anyway? 
Wow, that was fast. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer old fart, Chronos.
I’ll just sit over here with the video camera trained on the Twister board…
hey Chronos, congrats & welcome to the “club” <gives secret handshake>. Ok, where’s the babes?
Hmm, this still isn’t working well… UncleBeer or Euty, could you maybe edit the words “Party” or “Post count” or “Clothing optional” into the subject line? That seems to be how all the other post count parties manage it.
Oh, and AudreyK, anything other than rap or pop country is fine with me. It’s not like anyone’ll be paying attention to the music once the Twister gets underway, anyway 
Chronos, for your post parties to be successful, maybe you need to spend more time (snicker) in MPSIMS so people recognize your username!
Rest assured that your contributions in Comments on Cecil’s Columns and General Questions are highly valued.
Perhaps, since the alcohol and twister aren’t bringing in the crowds, a discussion of general vs. special relativity will put the asses in the seats.
I’ll start with a question. Instead of a hydrogen bomb, why don’t people make a helium bomb? I would think that the extra proton would make it twice as deadly, with the added benefit that people in the fallout zone would be talking funny, so one could immediately recognize and shun those poor souls suffering from radiation poisoning.

I’m just going to set this up on the back deck. The garden hose is hooked up, right?
Did’nt see me making a big fuss when I hit four digits or even 2^10 Well actually I forgot to make a big fuss so I’m going to post like a maniac so I can make my 2^11th post at the Vegas Dopefest in September.
I think I found the problem, Chronos.
Who the hell wants to go to a party where the host discourages vomiting.
I’m not discouraging vomitting, just vomitting on the carpet. I’ve got a perfectly good wastebasket, a bathtub, a toilet, two sinks, and four windows, and they’re all fair game.
And if you really want to play that game, Arnold, helium is exactly what’s produced by a hydrogen bomb. You don’t start with helium as the raw material because it’s higher on the binding energy curve, and so only releases about a tenth of the energy of hydrogen in fusion. 
OK, so I admit that this is a shameless bump. I’m trying to party, demmit!
Pssst, Chronos… Ya know what this party needs? This party needs strippers.
I volunteer Uncle Beer!
::runs::
So…you had 237 posts on May 22nd (which happens to be about the time I registered), and 1022 now?
Must have been my influence, huh? I told you in the signature thread (the one with the Shakespearean felching quote) that you WEREN’T spending too much time at the boards!
Notice how Audrey’s the only female to post to this thread, and yet she thinks we need a MALE stripper.
Congratulations again, Chronos!
::blinks::
I am?
No wonder y’all was waiting for me to start the Twister game!!
I knew that. :o
Strippers? Okay, I’ll strip down. I think I better because I just vomited down the front of my shirt; the carpet’s fine though.
Arnold, I knew you knew that. How many times have I told you that modesty of yours will get you nowhere?
Ha! Fooled you all! I had no idea of the internal workings of the hydrogen bomb.
I’m torn between saying “Thank you for your (misplaced) confidence in me” or shouting out “Sucker!!” at the top of my lungs.
So Chronos, you’re telling me that if I have Bussard ramjet generational starship, (even if my plasma chamber could handle the temp./pressure) I’d be better off (energy wise) to throw the helium out as exhaust instead of fuse up the line into Beryllium?
Got to do something until the chicks get here (that jello is damned cold with no… uhm… company. 
)
Well, if you’ve got a Bussard, you’re probably only using it on deceleration, anyway, so you might as well stock up on whatever material you can. Whether the further fusion is worthwhile depends on the construction of your reactor.
DRY, that just means that I caused you to register by getting off school:)
And demmit, I get enough physics on here over in GQ! Bring on the (female) strippers, already! (although if males want to peel, too, that’s OK)
'Grats, TimeMaster.
Damn! Guess physics geeks really can’t get laid, even in virtual. Maybe you should become an Evil Time Manipulator. Chicks dig bad boys.
