Random Musings pt. I: First Blood

[chiwarriorcelesti]

Draft pick night! I can't deny my spike tendencies anymore. (but it could just be that I haven't played any CCGs in almost 6 months either.)

Fuki: I'm finding we have more in common with each post. Those RIGs eat my gold like no other...I'm currently attempting to resist the urge to sell the rest of the fish I just collected to blow on super prizes in the hopes to nab more gold that I know won't happen.

Fuki and others-

I decided to go with some cheapies for now: alpha grams, walkers, lightning bugs, and I did break down and buy a mini monsters third strike so I also have a lone outlaw wolf and a kokeshi.

So now hopefully my glows will be a little better! I'm working on the glow thread as we speak. And I liked the suggestion of a Booty grab thread so I'll make one ^_^

Now here's something you don't see everyday. Massive head of pharaoh unearthed in Egypt . eek 3nodding Yeah, this is just another geeky part of me that heart ancient Egypt. wink

Hey hey, all. Question. I was in Pennsylvania today and I noticed a lot of the houses I drove past had these huge five-pointed stars on them (many of them painted in American flag patterns). The internet has failed me in providing a satisfactory answer as to what this is about. Does anyone here know?

Not to bad. It was entertaining to have a chance for some friendly competition.

There are a few houses around here that have that, too. I remember my mom telling me she thought it was because someone in that house (or the previous owner, etc.) had served in the armed services. I don't think she's 100% sure herself as she heard or read some place a long while back, but she sounds fairly confident.

Painted or flag hung, red border with white field and blue stars, they're most definitely a military awareness thing.

Each star is a member of the family serving away. Gold star is a death in war ((And thus 'never coming home')).

Other than that, I have no idea.  

[Headhunter]

Huh. If it's a military thing, I wonder why this is the first time I'm seeing it.

Does anyone know where I go to report if I see something being sold on eBay for real money and not on the Gaia marketplace?

If you're curious to know what I found it's right here .

Take a peek in the site feedback section. I think that's the best place to look for the right thread. I haven't seen a thread just for this type of report though.
