The Official KQIX Asylum

Zero-G, you obviously have been under a rock.

"Space Pens," developed by Fisher in the United States, which combine a more viscous than normal ballpoint pen ink with a gas pressurized piston which forces the ink toward the point. This design allows the pen to write even upside down or in zero gravity environments. It was developed at the request of NASA, and has been used in spaceflight. Fisher has capitalized on the design, developing a line of "Space Pens" for consumer use.

I used to own one of those, actually... they were pretty neat.

But do those do 'clickety-click'?

[Jeysie]

Heh. It's been a while since I owned one, but there are a few varieties that look clicky.

... and all the while Zero-G keeps using his trusty ol' pencil.

[Jeysie]

Unfortunately, pencils are useless for some purposes. Plus mechanical pencils aren't as satisfying with their clicky, and too much clicky with them makes a mess, too.

*Zero-G, being indifferent to pens, neither welcomes nor destests the pen producing building. Although he does realize the seeming value other people put ito them so he finally decides to appreciate the addition.*

You sure you don't want even just one clicky pen? How do you know they won't work in zero-G? Have you tried it yet?
BTW, I seem to have forgotten to put you into solitary confiment too, for causing such a disturbance in the Asylum.

You can't do that, he's not even a patient yet!

*looks at zero-g pen posts*

Random Thought
The Americans spent over 1million dollars to invent/make them. The Russians just used a pencil.

*wonders what the reason was, for pointing out the US government's need to spend money pointlessly*

I love the Urban Legends Reference Pages.

Thanks for clarifying that, Jeysie!

But I like having reasons to justify my mad research skillz.

Don't worry, I'll still post Random Thoughts. I just won't be posting anymore US Random Thoughts for awhile(I got that information, from a source I considered trustworthy).

AFAIK, none of the spacepens was clicky.

You can't do that, he's not even a patient yet!

He's not? I suppose that's what you get when your assistant is absent. Strange, considering the way he (Zero-G)'s been behaving lately.
Anyway, that can soon be fixed....

* copycat writes zero-G's name on the patient list.

There, happy now?

As soon as my Haven Pet is finished(I'm not trying to rush anyone), may I put it on my site?

[Kimmie]

im assuming say has alot on her plate at the mo LN   the pets may hav to wait a while.

actually my real pet jake has been really quiet today...i think its the thunder...aaaaaaaw

[koko_99_2001]

Poor Jake.

Oh oh!  Funny story (in retrospect) about Koko.  Do you guys know of those sticky bug traps that are put in houses?  It's like a small piece of cardboard with glue on top of it--and they're really strong (the one in our garage caught a small lizard).  Anyway, these but traps are in every room of the house.  Well, Koko got behind an old wooden toybox upstairs and all of a sudden, he's meowing like there's no tomorrow.  I get worried and go over and check on him.  I'm pulling him out from behind the toybox and find the trap stuck on his belly fur.  Poor baby.  So I pull it off and let him go.  He starts walking across the carpet...and you can hear the carpet sticking to his front paw!!  It was so funny!

(We did call the bug exterminator and found out that it was just glue--no poison--just to make sure it was ok for Koko to lick it off.  See, we take care of our animals as we're laughing at them )

Nice site so far, LN!

Interesting...

Oh no, now I've done it.  

[Louisiana Night]

What has happend to all the patients!? Did they escape?

Maybe they left, to join this one.

Lunatix Online

P.S. This is the part I like. " If you are unable to behave maturely and respecfully of the other patients here, your ability to chat, post news, and send mail may be suspended for 24 hours."

[koko_99_2001]

I was noticing that it looks like a majority of our people have either disappeared or not posting as much.  I can't say much, since I'm doing the same...

[Louisiana Night]

If the patients don't come back soon, I'm going to have to join the Asylum(what's an asylum, without patients?).
