The Friday Thread

It was pointed out, a few weeks ago, that sooner or later we'd run out of things to write about here. Well, I beg to differ. The world we live in can be seen in many different ways, and there is so much to be seen that even in a full lifetime, I don't believe one can run out of wonders to experience. Perhaps if one were immortal and lived for a few hundred years, then yeah sure, however - in human terms? Not really a possibility.

With such a unique and vast world to explore, and only Fridays to do so, we would like to invite you all to take a different view of the world, a view from above: http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2008/10/earth_from_above_comes_to_nyc

From the arctic landscapes that is Resolute Bay in Canada to the "Tree of Life" in Tsavo national Park, Kenya, the wonders of the world never cease to inspire awe. Gadget inventions, pictures from other planets as well as dolphins saving surfers from sharks; these are all things that we have shown you thus far. Next up is something a little "different".....

Extremities can be found in all walks of life, even on these forums. Sports, as it may, is no exception. At some point you might stop and ask yourself where the line goes between madness and sanity. What to some people can be a "healthy" weekend activity can to others be utter insanity. Perhaps some of you are the types that enjoy the adrenaline rush that is free fall, in which case it is quite likely that you will find the following links a real mood setter for the weekend:

While not a plan for this weekend in particular, yours truly will most certainly spend a weekend in the future jumping out of airplanes. This, finally, brings us to the point of this thread. What will you spend your weekend doing this week? Whether you are going to play video games at home or if you are going for a nice get-away in the mountains with your significant other, we invite you to share your plans with us as we count the minutes towards the end of the workday.

With that; The Friday Thread is now open, serving all your time-passing needs in a collective manifestation of weekend spirit!

Now nothing seems as strange as when the leaves began to change
Or how we thought those days would never end
Sometimes I'll hear that song and I'll start to sing along!

You're not going to catch me jumping out of a plane any time soon... ;-)

Q u o t e:
Edit2: Both druids deleted their angry post :( which makes me FIRST!

Well no, but it's kinda ludicrous trolling in a thread we just posted! ;-)
