Thank goodness it was only a machine gun. Imagine if it was one of the bigger guns...

"The coconut crab, Birgus latro, is the largest land-living arthropod in the world, and is probably at the upper limit of how big terrestrial animals with exoskeletons can become in today’s atmosphere. The species inhabits the coastal forest regions of many Indo-Pacific islands, although localized extinction has occurred where the crab is sympatric with man. Generally nocturnal, they remain hidden during the day and emerge only on some nights to forage. Their body is divided into four regions; the cephalic lobe, forepart, trunk, and opisthosoma. It is a highly apomorphic hermit crab and is known for its ability to crack coconuts with its strong pincers to eat the contents. It is the only species of the genus Birgus."

You have to wonder at the first few people to look at that and say to one another "lets eat it"
- J. Abdul-Qahhar
They are VERY good to eat, one of my favorite foods from our sailing trip. The only problem is I'm a lobster fan myself so I went straight for the tail. It is filled with a brown goo I called butt butter.. it tastes like smokey peanut butter mixed with saltwater. The claws are fantastic.. better than lobster!! You have to be VERY careful they can snap your fingers off . You better be careful not to overfeed those cure little hermit crabs you all have.. cause that is what you will get!!
- Chris Myles
reminds me of the heads crabs in Half-Life. :)
- Bryan Lee
Heck yeah, I'd eat that :] That's the capybara of the arthropod world.

I wonder how much coconut flavour the meat has.
- Andrew C
Not much but it does soften the meat. It's the best darn arthropod meat I have ever tasted. hmm first time I've ever used arthropod and meat in the same sentence. When you kill them (machete into the soft under belly) nothing but coconut liquid comes out (the clear stuff not the milk). Anyone ever tried a coconut apple (the foam that forms inside after a coconut starts to sprout)? yumm!

"One of my favorite food memories from my trip to Paris a few months ago was going out late at night near the Eiffel Tower and queuing up with a bunch of other people to get freshly made crepes, then sitting in the park enjoying the lights of the tower while eating. The crepes were so good that the first night I had one, I ate it just after crossing the street away from the crepe stand, then turned back around and ordered another. They were that good. At home, I usually make crepes for breakfast and fill them with jam. The street crepes, while sweet options were available, were most popular in their savory incarnations. I liked the ham, cheese and egg crepes best."

If you're ever in Saratoga Springs, NY, try a place called Ravenous. It's on a side street off the main drag, but their crepes - both savory and sweet - rock the house. Also make sure to get the pommes frites with aioli. 2 DIE 4

'Ravenous' has to be one of the best names for a restaurant!

Well I made it to 27 years old before needing my first stitches. I was bartending alone for a busy crowd and busted a glass that cut my finger deep. Oh so much blood. Hard to type with a novacaine index finger.
I was luckier; I made it to 37 before I needed my first stitches after having my gallbladder out. Still, feel better soon.

Back at work. It's the biggest weekend of the year in Yankton. We're a town of 15,000 people, but this festival brings 100,000 to town.

Wow, you must have cat like agility and wear pads all the time. I made it to 1 week old before I needed stitches.

The big parade came by the bar's front door, so we had a bunch of people drinking Bloody Mary's on the patio about 9:30am. I figure you can't have Bloody Mary's without blood.

Looking for a new Laptop bag. Need to tote around two laptops. (work 15" Dell & personal Lenovo X61t) Anyone got any good suggestions? I'm looking for comfort in carrying and decent look for when I go into executive offices.
Not sure if they sell them anymore, but I'll got a great 15" Mac laptop bag from 2005. It's black, and has a handle on top so you can carry it like a briefcase. Looks a lot more professional than your average laptop bag.

**HELP** Ok peeps . . . I've got enough supplies to make another cheesecake. I want suggestions for flavors or kinds! Something cool or exotic would be nice.
Peanut butter & white chocolate are tame but my favorite. Pineapple (ala upside down cake) might be unusual.
- Alix Whitmire
I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter. I saw the pineapple upside down cake on the Cheesecake Factory website and thought it looked good. Plum Sake sounds amazing and I always like creamy mango desserts
- Lindsey is Fierce!
Cheesecake Factory sadly only makes pumpkin when it's cold.... :(
- Liana Shanes
I'd never heard of pineapple, guess it's not that unusual. :D I saw a grilled cheesecake recipe the other day. People will grill anything. I'm surprised no one has suggested bacon. :P
- Alix Whitmire
Damn joey . . . now you tell me. Well I'm going to do it tonight and my Dad is the genius with the best suggestion. I'm going to make a Cherry Coke Cheesecake!!!! I'll do lavender next time ;)

I get that, and you get that, but obviously, there are people out there who don't. Posting this wasn't meant to demean one side or the other; I believe in God, but don't find this offensive because I know there are people out there who don't.

Will anybody admit to buying and playing the godawful E.T?!

@Abby that was Adventure in all its blocky castle glory, yup.

Used to love Adventure with the keys and dragons. I never had Asteroids but my friends did. Never quite got the hang of it. I would accelerate too much and end up zooming diagonally across the screen out of control.

I loved Pitfall Harry. And even broke the score where you can send in a picture of the screen and they'll give you a patch. but dang my mom, she wouldn't take a pic of the screen so no patch for me. It was devestating!

When did you get your first grey hair (that's on your head ladies and gentlemen ;-))? When did it all go grey, when did you first get the lovely bald patch? :-)
Thankfully, no baldness to report, I've had a dash of grey since I was a teenager but no more at the age of 32. My Dad had the horrible bald patch and comb over but my uncle still has a full flock of hair. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
Grey first in early 50's - still only grey around the edges. No baldness -- Dad is 82 and still has a full head of hair so that is likely my fate as well.
- Brian Sullivan
None so far. I know some friends who started getting grays in their 20's
- Rodfather
My first gray was at 15. I've got a few more since turning 30 than I did previously.... or I'm noticing them more.
- Alix Whitmire
Grey hair since late teens but no bald patch! At the first hint of that I shave off the lot.
- Ade
20-21 first noticeable gray. Going bald at 23. Completely salt and pepper except for partial beard that is still brown around 30.
- CW™
If I did go grey, I wouldn't know because I dye my hair every two months.
- Shevonne
Found my first few grey hairs when I was 11, still have a head full, and no more greys that I can find at 19.
- Jimminy
I got my first grey hair in my early thirties. My father and grandmother both went prematureally grey at an early age. It's sometimes sexy as in Anderson Cooper. He's went grey in his 20s I believe and he's damn sexy. :)
- Mol, Time Warping
I've always had the odd white hair here and there, but not all gray or gone yet.
- Morton Fox
I started noticing gray hairs around 18 or 20. Right now (a decade later) my hair is still mostly brown, with just a few gray hairs here and there.
- John (a.k.a. dendroica)
Ade, depends where you live. In the UK its grey. In the US I believe its gray.
- Kol Tregaskes
I have no grey in my hair that I know of, but my beard is grey when I grow it out. That started last year.
- Alan Simpson
17 years old. Somewhere on my head. No bald spots (on my head).
- MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
Gray is a color. Grey is a colour. ;) I swap the two depending on my mood
- Rodfather
I wish I had bald patches on my back. (all together now: Ewwwww! Gross!)
- Morgan Haley
Oh no, not a nice image, Morgan. ;-)
- Kol Tregaskes
Grey hair at 23, Still only in patches. Have had the McDonald's hairline since 13 :-P
- Rasmus Lauridsen
not grey, but started getting some white hairs in my beard when i was 26 so i shaved it all off and haven't regrown it since then. my hair suddenly thinned a bit on top when i was 19 and then halted, hasn't gotten any thinner since. my father didn't go grey until he was over 50 and no one in my family has ever gone bald.
- Joe Silence is not dead
Finally got my first grey hair a few months ago. I'm 36. I think I see a 2nd, but it may be too much to hope.

Got my first one at 24. Still only have a few, the the rest is still thick and luxurious.

The day I got married. :) ( I expect to get whapped for that one)

GrEy is in UK English, GrAy is in US English! For me Grey is the correct one. As regards the question, I have a few silverish hairs on the sides, which started coming out at 28. They haven't increased drastically...yet!
- Rowena Scicluna
Started going bald at 16. No gray up there because they've mostly emigrated.
- Great Scott!
34 and got my first grey hair in the beard this year. Doesn´t matter because I´m blonde with red beard anyway;) No bald spot (although I´m sure a bit higher in the front) or grey hair on the head yet. (Which is strange since my younger brother and almost every other male relative are bald). Not at all freaked out about losing it or going grey though.
- Thomas Bøhm
I think when I was 13 or something. Pretty young! My mom was cutting my hair and said "Wow, you've got a couple gray hairs over here. I'd pull them out, but seven more would come to its funeral."
- Jordan Hofker
Age 17-18. One of my college classmates was almost completely white by senior year. At age 25-30, he looked a distinguished 40-50. And at 45, he now looks 60s. Probably helped his career.
- Mitchell Tsai
I got my first grey hair when I was 40 - still only have a few more than ten years later :) Lucky I guess
- martha
First grey hair when I was 27. I stopped dying my hair when I saw it, because it was bright white (the kind I'd hoped I'd get).
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Got my first grey hair a couple months ago. It was twice as thick as my normal hair, too. My beard looks gray in my profile pic, but really it's blonde. Honest!
- Slippy "Threadsbane" Lane
I have some silver in the hairs just above my ears. :-)
- Ladybug Heather
I actually don't have grey hair, mine are white. I started out with two, about 15 years ago, at 25, I proceeded to pluck them, mount them on black matte, frame them and gave them to my Mother. I prefer to call my white hair, wisdom.... lol
- The Catz Meow
Early twenties, if that late. It may be all grey, now; I dye it too often to be certain. I'm quite offended, as I haven't yet reached my 40th birthday.
- MiniMage, sheeple of FF
Crap I just found one on my chin. Boo!
- Rodfather
Still don't have any, which is sort of disappointing

I read long ago that grey is just as appropriate as gray. I still read that when I look it up. I'm in the US. I happily use either one, unless I'm referring to my favorite tea. Like a certain android's name, that's pretty well fixed.
- MiniMage, sheeple of FF
i am 15 at this pesent moment and goin grey , i hav bein goin grey since last year but no other patch's hav shown up thankfully =D .... its hard sometimes but i try and hide it =D

Having severely overestimated the need for hotdogs (and cakes and ice cream) for my daughter´s 1st birthday (actually today but) party on sunday, my wife and I are eating hotdogs every day this week. Which is fine by me although my wife the doctor is concerned about the healthiness. Still it feels to good to be true to me:)
Thanks. She says "bblbblBBL!" back (which strangely actually is baby language for "Let me clubber the macbook keyboard too").
- Thomas Bøhm
Just don't get gout. :) Happy b-day little one! And congrats to the parents for surviving the first year!

Thanks! Had to ask my wife about "goat". It´s called "gikt" here apparently, and I now got a little lecture again about the unhealthiness of hotdogs thankyouverymuch! ;) I´ll mix it with some salads from now on (as I´m a bit of a hypochondriac..) :)
