gustheduckie That sounds very urban legend-y, but it's still a freaky story. This is kind of random, but it sort of reminds me of the episode of I Love Lucy where Lucy was trying to sneak the huge cheese on the plane by pretending it was a baby. . .LOL.

gustheduckie Is it possible that it wasn't an actual telemarketer, but just a prank phone call? I've had some crazy prank calls before, and I can't picture an actual telemarketer doing something so stupid as to call a potential customer an "idiot." Unless they were trying...

gustheduckie There's a movie called Idiocracy that came out last year. It's about a guy who is cryogenically frozen and wakes up 500 years in the future and discovers that mankind has become incredibly stupid. The logic is that since very intelligent people usually don't...

reliability of wikipedia

How reliable and updated is the articles on wikipedia?

10 responses

gustheduckie Because wikipedia is self-checking, it's usually pretty reliable, but remember to tkae everything with a grain of salt. And NEVER cite it for anything. I know profs who will automatically fail a paper if the citations are from wikipedia. What you can do,...

gustheduckie Always wash off your makeup before you go to bed. (I use Cetaphil to wash my face). Keep track of how old your makeup is, and throw away anything too old. Exfoliate regularly. Use moisturizer. Use sunscreen. Invest in facials.

Beginner knitter ready to move on to the next stage!

ctinabina @ctinabina (386) • United States 13 Feb 07

I just started knitting about a month ago, and I really like it. So far I've only made scarves in garter, purl, and seed stitches. I'm looking for something else to make that is easy, but is not a scarf. Any suggestions?

gustheduckie If you feel confident with both knit and purl, you could probalby move on to hats. A stockinette rolled-brim beanie is super easy, and the only new skill you'd need to learn would be knit 2 together (k2tog). If you feel especially adventurous, you could do a...

gustheduckie I'm thinking about making the SnB alien illusion scarf for my boyfriend. I know he'd get a kick out of it. How hard is illusion knitting compared to other techniques? What about it is tricky, exactly?

gustheduckie Cute! I knit, so I love looking at hand-knit/crotched things, and I know that they can be cherished gifts, since it was hand-made and not just bought at a store. What kind of yarn are you going to use?

gustheduckie I've been with my "boy next door" boyfriend for 4.5 years. We sort of met by accident, so it wasn't like either of us was actively seeking the other when we started dating. In general, though, I think I would be more sttracted to the boy next door. The bad...
