Macky's annoyingly cheery cheer suggested to me, visually, that this one might be more representative of Dr. LL's accomplishments:
Yum
Poor Hanne! How annoying she has to work! Hugs for Hanne... phew. Thought it was me being stoopid. Goesta will enlighten us!

My favorite movie of all time is Endless Summer. Celebrate, go surf!

Looks a bit like a pumpkin. Can anyone else see a horse's face in that guy's body? Nope? Just me then {embarrassed onion head}
How 
I am cheekily wondering which Geek legend it is. :-))

I'm flumbergasted to discover that it's all over for men, apparently…http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/news/sc...

No, really, he has an avatar to do all the thinking,
I would like to belatedly give my grumpy congratulations to Lucas Ph.D. on the completion of his degree. Go have some fun now!

Fine! I'm so done with trying to visually compliment Mr. Dr. Jock. Even though I've seen only his glowing verbal self-depiction, he must truly be a nonpareil specie of men. Neither Caravaggio nor the Colossus of Rhodos, nor yet some superfit type from a military fitness site can do him justice... whom I chose for the yellow ball/pun, not the equine tors(i)o(n), harrumph.
So I tried to research the perfect male physique. But I couldn't get past the hilarity of this unhelpful illustration. The priceless vacuity of the expression doesn't quite read at this size, either:
Big belated congrats, Lucas! I'm grumbling that I'm having to do so belatedly. :(

OH MY MIFFINGLY GOODNESS I have to say I can see a Horsey, Zebra, Minotaur thingy too..... Anyone remember Mr Ed the talking horse.... Neighhhh !
And of course its an exercise ball! Why did we all think it was a melon?! Big mental head slap......

Oh dear, now is the time for me to admit that vacuity of expression is something I find really attractive in men.
Danni wrote: "Oh dear, now is the time for me to admit that vacuity of expression is something I find really attractive in men."I must teeth-grittingly concur that there are certain moments when a total lack of cranial occupation can be most stimulating.
How annoying to have to point out that vacuity of male expression is taken as a huge advantage among actors, since it allows the viewer to invent one in their imagination. As a stage-type person, Goesta will surely know this?

I am sanctimoniously nettled that my friend Elorie joined and hasn't posted a complaint.
Congrats. Now you can take off your cap and gown
and slip back into your jockstrap.

Grumpily isn't that to do with shoe size? If so I want a man with a small brain and big feet ... Or is it the other way round? Hmmm
Macky wrote: "Grumpily isn't that to do with shoe size? If so I want a man with a small brain and big feet ... Or is it the other way round? Hmmm " You don't want it the other way round, cos a great big brain balanced way above tiny little feet is a recipe for disaster balance wise.
Unless, of course, he has a third leg (or something big and long enough to act as such) to form a more stable tripod shape.
Tsk tsk! I actually meant the feet, but I'm very interested in the long third leg balancing tripod thingy you know what! Would that make him like an olde worldy kitchen stool? Would he be able to do the three legged race by himself? would his third leg bend or just rigidly stick out if he sat down? I like to ponder these things, I find it very good for brain training... Better than maths because I'm pants at that!
Now that that school thing is over I guess you go back to the
gym and put that brain of yours to work doing squat thrusts.
Enjoy! Preston
To anyone blithely naive enough to believe in it: I was most sorely let down once by the myth associated with big hands and feet. In truth, apparently there wasn't enough material left over for that other bit. Somewhat compensated for by a fair skill at employing what there was.

I hasten to add, lest I be misconstrued, that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes.
Dr. Lucas Lyons, what a great sounding name, but to follow the rules, I have to complain we all didn't get an engraved announcement. It is an immense achievement and I congratulate you, and your husband to be for putting up with all you had to go thru to achieve it,I understand about wanting to miss ceremonies of thousands. When my husband got his Doctor of Musical Arts, there was the entire class of USC outdoors on some lawn in 90 plus hot sun, then they broke down into the smaller colleges and that was kind of bearable. But it took him 7.5 years for him to be conferred this honor and damn if we were not going to go thru the while thing wether we liked it or not.
Now enjoy your Doctorhood and add the honorific to your credit cards and wherever else you want....it can really help in some situations when you want people to think of you as other than a dumb jock.
Hugs and kisses.
Looking forward to pictures of your upcoming nuptials!
Wonderfully said Jerry!!! Well done again Lucas xxx
Fight On! (That's for the Trojans).I went to have blood sucked out this morning so I installed the GR app on my phone. In addition to his comely photo, I saw that the good doctor whinge on people multiple posting on different topics, as if comment boxes were at premium.
And I really perturbed that posting pictures seems to be beyond me, so I'll post a link for a picture of what I saw in the parking lot this weekend between Best Buy and Ross. fisker
Actually, I really wanted to post a photo of the darling Robbie Rogers, I have two where he's bare chested in too tiny soccer shorts.
Hi, I'm Elorie and thanks to Averin, I just figured out how to post. Piece of info one: I am an almost total compufile. That is computers hate me and I don't like them too much. But I made it here. Question: can we complain about anything or just books etc?
I am kerfuffled to welcome Elorie to the best Complaint Department on and off the interwebbs. You may complain about just anything real or imaginary (though for more specific things please see the directory). Mostly we just like to complain about everything.
Danni wrote: "What, like this? Not tiny enough to my mind."
Yes. My Tumblr has one with a trophy and this one. No thank you.
Okay now I will stop complaining that Elorie has posted but I will beef that Eric hasn't.
Averin wrote: "Fisker"Well, if that doesn't beat all. So now I'm supposed to buy this amazing hybrid luxury automobile with Stealth Mode just so I can finally realize the old joke about my Karma running over your dogma? I think I'd rather bury my face in Robbie Rogers' yellow jollies while whining about my inferior (and terminal) degree - Master of efF All.
I'd like a seat on the sideline for that.

( * whispers* as long as you read the rules on the group home page, I have to whisper because everyone hates being reminded of the rules! )
You can complain about my reminding you of the rules or the weather or if you hate peanuts or anything you want. Check out the discussions, there's a place to complain about computers. Just let of steam we are a motley gang of whiners and whingers but everyone is annoyingly great fun! Harrumph!
@Goesta: Having you and Danni on the same page reminds me, did you find a fix for the comments running together? [This is an Open Office to Wordquestion if anyone else wants to chime in].
Averin wrote: "@Goesta: Having you and Danni on the same page reminds me, did you find a fix for the comments running together? [This is an Open Office to Wordquestion if anyone else wants to chime in]."Nope, but then in all honesty, I didn't look for one, so...
Bejiggered that i felt the need to post a picture of Robbie and his tongue!
Averin wrote: "@Goesta: Having you and Danni on the same page reminds me, did you find a fix for the comments running together? [This is an Open Office to Wordquestion if anyone else wants to chime in]."I grump gripe and groan that somehow, I did manage to look at the last thing I was sent (revision of my LHNB submission) with the comments properly spaced, but I don't remember how. I might have converted it using Pages, or updated Open Office, or maybe it was the xdoc (docx?) files that were the problem, not the docs. It's all so fuzzy... oh, Doctor!! (sorry, swooned there, imagining a glow-in-the-dark tongue stud on a stud's tongue)
