The "What's on your mind?" thread

[BaerGriggs]

Such a weird topic and I can't understand it but...I used to despise the Big Bang Theory, but lately I've been limited to just a few TV channels, one of which is TBS. And I've found myself watching Big Bang most every night even though I'm not sure I actually even like the show lol. I think my mind was conditioned to watch TBS most nights after 7 because that was when Family Guy was on, and I'm subconsciously drawn to watch that channel now.

The Big Bang Theory is awesome. Like you, I started watching it on TBS everyday. I just flipped through channels and this show was shown a lot on reruns and I just decided to watch it. It took a while for me to get used to the type of humor, but now, I like it a lot!!

Stephen Sutton who passed away recently in the UK after battling with cancer,he has raised millions for the charity.

His parents have asked for people to remember him today(his funeral)by "doing something nice for someone today"......nice thought.

Some famous people that wondered:
Steve Jobs
Albert Einstein
Martian Luther King Jr.
Mahatma Gabdhi

To be someone that wonders, puts me in the same position of those that thought different, those that didn't listen to the statue quo, those that changed the world.

pls do.

Does anyone else think the word "thesis" is weird? It has a huge range. Anywhere from the first paragraph of a 5-10 page paper that takes less than an hour to write (definition 1), to a 100 page paper that takes 5 years to write (definition 2). Maybe there should be two separate words to mean the two different things, rather than one word that belongs to both definitions?

I hear a lot of stadiums aren't even ready yet, so I guess there are issues. To what extend I don't know.

Like you Nef, I don't mean to provoke, but the choices by FIFA on Host Nations is bordering more on the political decisions then who can actually run it properly.

I'm not personally concerned but there are many Brazilians who are.
Yes millions are being spent but it will generate more millions but that government has no interest in providing for the ones that need it,World Cup or no World Cup.

Michael Jackson made his "They Don't Care About Us" video there amongst the favela's and the government tried to ban it as it showed the "real" Brazil.

MJ replied by saying "I'm glad to see you have your priorities sorted out"

Brazil had placed a bid to host the WC or Olympics at the time and they said that the MJ video would harm that,that's why he replied with what he said.

A bit is an understatement.
There's not much I don't know about the king of pop,rock and soul.
He was a game changer,a legend that only comes round once in a life time and I am delighted I got to see him live(twice)and stand at the gates of Neverland(twice)

R.I.P. MJ..... Your legacy will never die!
