We have them here as well.

[Silentgypsy]

Terrific! They tell me I’m argumentative when I imbibe in Poblach Soarza (sp?).

Change of venue noted.

Poblachd Saorsa, don’t ask me how to pronounce it though!

[Darksheare]

Pssst, hey.
Undead Thread is over here...

I'm recommending throwing rocks as a way of moving asteroids.

Trebuchets, I think, are out of contention. I'd go with an articulated throwing arm, like a pitcher's arm, but bigger.

Maybe one on each side of the asteroid, to operated in synchrony.

For real balance, a tetrahedral arrangement.

I wonder what happens to all the thrown rocks?

Note to self: Have really good meteor shields on space ship.

Break out the Poblachd Saorsa!

I'd rather have Caol Ila, if you don't mind. Just happen to have a bottle here.

You're welcome to too much of it so we can laugh at with you!

“facebood” is more than likely a verb than a noun. Can’t tell exactly.

Trebuchets, I think, are out of contention.

I'm pretty sure the larger version is still standing unused, but I did build a smaller version for launching rocks into the Bonsai pot.

Hey Face! :) Nice digs we got here.

How are things with you?

[NicknamedBob]

Keep in mind I was speaking of moving asteroids.

Even if you build a trebuchet on an asteroid, the gravity that powers it will be minimal.

Rotational energy, on the other hand, depends on the power source, (preferably nuclear).

Pick up a rock, throw it in the direction opposite to the preferred direction of travel, and then repeat.

“facebood” is more than likely a verb than a noun. Can’t tell exactly.

I'd guess it's a typo by an actual typist, drunk or not.

When as a typist, you place your hands on the keyboard, the "D" key is under the index finger of your left hand.

The "K" key is under the index finger of your right hand.

Left/right confusion? I don't know, but I know it sometimes happens to me. Crosstalk in the neural channels, maybe. But it's an explaqnation, of sorts.

My paternal gramma taught me to do the sword dance, the Highland Fling and assorted other exercises like the Hopscotch Polka—however, nobody taught me how to spell or drink that stuff, so I have to be classified as a rank amateur. (I’m asking Sionnsar to forgive my ignorance and to facilitate my education lol!)

[Silentgypsy]

I had a workout partner in the ‘80’s who looked very similar.

[Silentgypsy]

Sorry, darlin’. Still catching up. “Facebood?” “Moving Buddy?” Am so clueless, am lucky to be here.

[Silentgypsy]

I think I dated that cat in post 178 in the ‘80’s. He didn’t drink poblachd soarza in my presence, though.

[Silentgypsy]

Nuclear-powered trebuchets? Gracious!

[abigailsmybaby]

Facebood?! Damn, looks like I missed another good one. :(
