The wild geese from Strathbeg are getting ready to migrate for the winter, but why?
are they making so much noise. Also they seem to be flying from one field to another in a frantic hurray. Is this the sign of bad weather?
Fudgie are you Big John Campbell? Greetings from the Bloo Toon.


no, its just a sign of winter approaching

No… there’s just more hassle checking in this year because of the security measures
GLH (male 48 UK) | Oct 16, 2006


No they are not sure where they wanna go.
they are probably illegal immigrants I reckon
pilatustopontus | Oct 16, 2006


ryanair are doing cheap flights so they are just excited and trying to book their tickets its nature
budgeeeuk | Oct 16, 2006


No, that’s just what geese do.

They tend to fly around in small groups until they have established a leader for each flight of about 30 birds. If there isn’t an obvious candidate they argue about it – just like humans.
old-know-all | Oct 16, 2006


They are making the noise to gather everyone up. flying fromn field to field to get as many supplies as possible for the flight. also they get all the stragglers!!
Ross Macdonald | Oct 16, 2006


they are excited but also a little angry because strathberg smells in the winter and so they can’t get away fast enough. they’re also testing the fields (hence hopping from one to another) because they’re waiting for news on where osama’s going to strike next…and they dont want to collide with one of his target planes…but the news is so slow in coming and they’re now cold and impatient?

Skull Heads
Skull Heads (2009)

IMDB rating: 1.80

Plot: Skull Heads opens with 18-year-old Naomi being tied to a medieval rack by her father for committing the grievous sin of bringing a cellular phone into her family’s home. And you thought your parents were strict.

Directors: Band Charles

Actors: Jameson Rane,Horror

What kind of doctor do I need to see to remove this knot from my forehead?
I have a knot on my forehead that I’ve had since I was 4 years old. I’m currently 18 and in college. I’ve been wanting to get it removed my entire life but my mom wouldn’t let me. Thing is, it’s very self esteem lowering and it’s about Half-dollar sized over my right eye. Since I’m in college, I figure I can use the money from my refund check to have the surgery. I actually have 2 of them but the one over my left eye is pretty small. They both came from when I bumped my head. Anyway I was trying to figure out what kind of doctor I need to see (like a plastic surgeon or something), what the procedure is called, and possibly the cost of the operation, and how long it would take to heal. Also, the knots are pure bone I’ve read some people say that theirs are moveable, but mine is not. It basically two immobile lumps on my skull. A small one one the left and a huger, noticeable one on the right side.


I’d suggest a plastic surgeon. Also, make sure you don’t choose one based strictly on price – but make sure the person has satisfied patients. Look the doctor up at your state’s medical board to make sure the doctor has no complaints lodged against him. This may be costly depending on how it’s performed and if you need an anesthesiologist or not , and outpatient at a free-standing clinic vs. requiring a hospital.

I’m happy for you you’ve made a decision to help yourself. I wish your mom had been understanding about the self-esteem issue. Perhaps financially it was an impossibility.

I don’t know anything about the procedure required, but I wish you luck and a swift satisfying recovery.
LisaC | Feb 05, 2010


If they were caused by being hit by something then these things have to be knotted muscles there. Before you run off to have someone cut press hard on them and hold the pressure there for one minute. If they don’t release then I guess it would be off to a plastic surgeon. I just don’t know why they wouldn’t release though for I have have done that same thing for calcium deposits on my foot and the pressure made them release and go away. You have to admit it would be nicer than being cut on and a lot cheaper as well.

How can i get back in basketball shape?
ok so i was a basketball player for over 15 years and i had a scholarship to play for a d-1 school but i got hurt and coulden’t play. So that went down the drain its been three or four years since Ive put on a jersey and played competivly. I know this sounds far fetched but im lookin to get back in basketball shape and tryout for the d-league i know a crazy dream of mine. But i wanna do it. My trainer died so Does anyone know any good ways to get back in baseketball shape?

Thanks


running. lots and lots of running to get your stamina up. also work on getting your legs, arms, and core strong. also just start working out on the court. do some drills for dribbling, shooting, passing, etc. also see if you can join a saturday league or play pick-up ball so you can get used to running on the court and playing.

| Oct 05, 2009


Wow im sorry bro dats like a nightmare im a hooper 2 i go to etiwanda high school in so cal and im getting looks already and im only a sophmore but i start at shooting guard my advice coming from what i would dowould be run ur ass off till ur in a conditioned state to play ball hit the pushups don’t hit the weights it’ll only strain ur muscle and it’ll take a longer time to heal. but my couch has our whole team on this airalert workout spreadsheet it really helps it boosts ur hops and ur quickness and u do it for 16 weeks i almost 100% positive u can find it online…hope this helps………And ur dream is not crazy i would be doin the same thing u are except i might try to play oversees then u might gets some looks

My Saltwater fish are dying! 1 is dead and the rest are really sick?
Okay, I have a Royal Gramma, Clownfish, Sand Sifter, and 2 pyjama cardinals…

Royal gramma hasnt been doing well, for the past few days he’s been lying on the sand breathing regularly, but his coat hasnt been as shiny and he has brown stuff on his scales….

Sand sifter- He’s Dead… Alive last night but now dead

Clownfish- Used to swim around alot, now just stays in 1 place…

Pyjama Cardinals… Used to just "hang out" but now there really hyper…

I just recently killed a glass anemone with a syringe and lemon juice, and thats when all this started happening.

But before i killed the anemone my clownfish had white spots and he looked like he was trying to scratch himself.

Can someone help me before my Rg, pyjama cardnals, and clownfish die?!

I love my little swimmy (rg) He was my first Saltwater fish i have ever had and he is my favorite.

These fish arnt very old, maybe a year…


That white stuff you are referring to is a fish disease called ick but it can be treated it is usually caused by the water being too cold.Check the temperature as well as the ph in the water
muttlee | Feb 05, 2010


You need to do about a 50% water change. The lemon juice has dropped the pH and it also sounds like there are other water quality issues. The fish should be doing much better after the water change.

Never use lemon juice on aiptasia. Use a product like Joes Juice or the Red Sea Aiptasia-X. If you do not want to use them, use boiling water, or kalkwasser. Any acid like lemon juice is no good.

Because of the water quality problem, expect to get some illness like ich to really bloom since the fish was already fighting it off. You might want to have some Paraguard by Seachem ready to go just in case you start having issues.

Should I Get A Haircut Or Not?

Its kinda hard to tell but last time I got my haircut they sorta messed up one of the sides and granted that its so long, I think i should get a short cut, and i like the buzz look but i think its still too cold out, so maybe just a shorter style, like this but with pomade instead of gel

The point of this is, i want to know if I should just keep growing it out for winter and buzz it another month or two or just get it short now, whatever looks best….

I was also wondering if maybe a faux hawk would look good, but i dont know what the ladies think…


your hairstlye is fine, but your hair is a bit too long. try trimming it down a few centimetres not too mcuh though

Please read very important?
ok so it’s not that important but would you read this any ways and tell me what ya think?

i found her on the goblin lines. i saw her laying on the ground, barely breathing, eyes closed, and beside her the body of a man with horrendous gash wounds, quite obviously dead. i heard a rustling in the bushes my first impulse was to high tail it, being the prince it would be devastating if i were to die, had i not seen the woman try to get up and fail, then look at me my life may have been a whole lot easier but i couldn’t stand the urge to run to her and try to save her and so my life changing decision was made. i ran to her my sword already out of it’s scabbard. fortunately i had been in my armor waiting for my dueling class to begin, my helmet was a cast iron mold of a horse skull with horns atop. my armor was quite heavy but enough training with it and i became fast in it. my cape was black and fairly long with cuts to give it a zigzag look. i was almost there as i saw the goblins emerge out of the bushes that made the goblin lines. as they were about to deliver the killing blow to her they saw me and knew i was a bigger threat. they ran toward me as i ran to them. one of these black skinned fiends were considerably fast but left a huge hole in his defense as he was about to bear on me i cut right through him and went for the others as i ran to them i began thinking " five minus one equals four……. the odds are stacked highly in my favor" we stopped for a moment then out of nowhere the big ugly one delivered a horizontal slash to my legs to late i was already in the air bearing down on him. his head flew off his shoulder his black, greasy, ponytail flared in the wind. along with the big one the rest of the goblins lost some of the courage with him the pause that they gave me represented the perfect opportunity i had to kill them both.

the goblin lines are the territory that belongs to the goblin races, horrible creatures, usually black skinned but very few are green skinned, yellow, red, or black, irises, crooked nose with a point at the end. their weaons are very strong almost better than ours, they can live for many centuries giving them time to master any weapon they choose, and very dangerous altogether ; said to have been made by the devil himself, in legend at least, the goblins are part of the marachi in our language it means "devil heirs". the marachi include giants, trolls, dwarfs, dark elves, wood elves, dragons and many other races we have in our world. goblins are unlike anything else in our world they believe that the only way that they could accomplish meaning in their lives were to kill any in their path although they are known to be willing to kill anything a code they live by makes them to where they can not kill each other. any ways back to my story.

the ground around me was soaking yellow from the goblin blood, which isn’t that great to smell, this woman looked at the dead man then at me. the supposed dead man opened his eyes, and looked at me. and mouthed "thank-you" he fell down again. at the time he reminded me of a drunk man i met he looked very much dead but as i walked past him he shot up and said "cooooouuuuuld sumbodey git me a bite o’ monrey" he grinned then obviously not yet out of his stupor slammed down on the stones that made the street. the young women was able to walk herself towards my castle. i was about to leave the body there but just in case he got up again and finally died, i brought him with us just in case. the walk was silent she didn’t ask me anything i didn’t ask her anything. however i couldn’t help to look at her she had the clothes of a farmer, but her face was just, how could i put this, amazing. the only thing that doesn’t flee my mind is that her eyes were a red color a pure red color.

at the grand hall of destiny my dueling teacher was waiting for me i knew that, eventually, i would have to face one of his lectures about ditching his private class. my teacher, Calder, stood up and started yelling at me oblivious to the fact that my armor was beginning to turn red from the body leaking blood on me " if you do not stop trying to ditch my class i shall have to fail you and we know how your father will…" he finally noticed the body. his eyes were wide with his long face extra long chin and sage moustache he looked pretty funny. he turned around and ran for the hospital wing for probably to reasons. one, he was going to report to the hospital wing about the body , still on my shoulder or two, to let go of his lunch. turns out all he did was, after a checkup from one of our doctors, he went home. Calder is a renowned war hero in our world, he fought in many but his most famous was his battle of blood-bath, you could probably guess why it was called so
Calder was twenty-four at the time.he is the only surviving, survivor of the war, that is why he was chosen to be my teacher because my father wants me to slightly increase to-where i am as good
sry for that but i couldn,t get it done fast enough i had to do something so i skipped that plus it cut the rest of my story off how rude


It was relaly good until you skipped away from the main focus (obviously the girl on the goblin lines) and went into a huge spiel about his armor and something in the bushes. It just seemed kind of sudden it’s like "here look at this girl – no wait! something in the bushes – look at his armor! – they’re fighting! – goblins are gross, you know – now we can talk about duelling class!"

Too jumpy. Pick one subject and stick to it for a while. Care to explain in a bit more detail the girl on the ground? And drop of bit of description for his armor? Those kinds of things can be brought in more gradually.

| Sep 11, 2009


The beginning was okay. I was interested in this girl on the boarder of two lands, but then your writing got confusing and I lost interest. Random details tossed in (to explain backstory I guess) were annoying. Why another prince come to save the day? Overused. Plus you need to show not tell. Amateur writing but keep trying.

why do people doubt me when i say im half black?
okay so i happen to be both black and afghan. and if youve seen most afghans they have dark features,and lightish skin. i have dark skin and lots of tight ringlet curles(nappy + straight =ringlets!yay!). and my nose dosnt stick out far at al(but unfortuantly the bridge is tall=/ but who cares !) so those are the only characteristics of my black half and when i tell people(specially other african americans!)they give me a look lik sure or yeah right stop bein a wanna be black. and it just makes me so mad!and when they see my BLACK father there like….oh.i guess you really werent lying!
i know it dosnt matter where people come from or race. but when people want to know and i tell them, its like whos really going to lie about race! i take pride in my race even though both races have faced ridicule and the past and im proud of what i am and that what really irks me when people are like that.
how come theyre like that?
thanks for any answers!:)


Its human nature to not trust anyone for some reason. Its so dumb how people won’t believe you and make you feel bad over something like race. Don’t let others get to you. You knowing who you are is all that matters.

Why are people like that? You will come to find out people are straight assholes and idiots. Sometimes you wanna hit the hell out of them for little foul comments people make. But you have to learn to ignore them, because fighting is not the way to go.

idk why people are like that. why would people think you’re lying?! me myself am made up of african american, native american, and french (i’m creole!!) you can clearly see the african american and indian but the french usually throws people off. I also have a lil cousin thats mixed with black and white but she looks fully white. really white skin, blue eyes, red curly hair. when she grows up and tells people that she’s half black i’m pretty sure she’s gonna be going through the same thing you’re gowing through

Any recommendations for some brilliant non-pornographic anime/animated series/movies for adults?
I have watched Blue Gender, Elfen Lied, Ergo Proxy, Paprika, Persepolis, Waking Life, Waltz With Bashir and many others but now I am looking for something new. The genre does not matter as long as it’s aimed at adult audience and is well made, especially the script. Does not matter what year it has been produced. Philosophical and horror elements are a bonus but not necessity. Nudity in scenes is ok but I’m not looking for hentai or any other form of porn. Any recommendations?


Try Legend of Galactic Heroes or Monster. If you’re feeling rather romantic, no hurt in trying out Rose of Versailles too.

Other series you may want to try out are Jigoku Shoujo, xxxHolic, Antique Bakery, Cowboy Bebop just to name a few.

For the shows you listed and what you’re looking for, I highly recommend Kaiji. It’s a gambling show about an unemployed, idle young man who cosigned on a loan for a friend. The friend vanished and Kaiji finds himself up to his neck in debts and in serious trouble with the local yakuza. The gangsters offer him a way out–go on a gambling cruise and see if he can’t win the money back in the games. This isn’t some lame shounen game-playing show, though. There’s a lot of deep commentary on the human condition, and Kaiji is an incredible anti-hero–lazy, idle, bitter, weak-willed, etc, but amazingly strong deep down. It’s also got horror elements. The gambles that the yakuza come up with are pretty monstrous and often fatal, (this isn’t some lame mahjong or poker show) and Kaiji who is flat broke often is forced to wager his organs in order to play.

SUMMARY from anidb
Itou Kaiji is a bum who steals car emblems and slashes tires on what seems to be a regular basis. This routine changes one day when he is paid a visit by a man in a trench-coat. Once the two get talking, it seems that the visitor (Calling himself Endou) is a debt collector. The reason for his visit is an unpaid loan which kaiji had previously co-signed for a work-mate (Furuhata Takeshi). The original loan was 300,000 yen and once Takeshi had disappeared, the loan then fell on Kaiji.

Kaiji is then told of a way to clear the interest compounded debt (which stood at 3,850,000 yen), which involved getting on a boat with others in his position. Once on the boat the debtors would then have to gamble with loaned money, which would end with a few winning, and others getting into deeper debt and having to work to pay of their debts. After some coercing kaiji accepts a position on the boat, in order to clear himself and make a bit of money as well…

(if you do watch it, let me know what you think!)

If you’ve watched Paprika, I highly recommend the director’s Millenium Actress: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_ Actress Trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpGrD5wUz KE

Makoto Shinkai is also a great director. Of his works, the most "adult" would be 5 Centimeters Per Second. Don’t be put off by the high-schooler characters, the mentality here is adult. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5_Centimete rs_Per_Second Trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDBH4xCE9 ys

Grave of the Fireflies has been called the anime "Schindler’s List" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grave_of_th e_fireflies Trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSPwdBIbx _U

Also from the same director, the brilliant Only Yesterday http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Only_Yester day_(film) Trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9WNAcPcI GY
