It's a known fact that men and women are distracted by different types of shiny things. This can be summed up as "Women shop at Tiffany's, Men shop at Home Depot"


Women are distracted by Diamonds, Gold, etc...

Shopper: "How does it look."
Sales Associate: "This expensive piece really brings out the sparkle in your eyes."


Men are distracted by Chrome, Brushed Stainless Steel, Flashing LED's ...

Shopper: "How many BTUssssse does it got?"
Hope Depot Guy: It's got more than enough to make up for your lack of manliness.

That's funny because most of the women I know who have Tiffany's anything had said jewelry given to them as a gift by a man. Which meant that a man had to go in and buy it.

Likewise, most of the people I know who work at Home Depot deal with women more frequently than men. Yes, that's right, women more than men. Mind boggling, isn't it?

Very true... I know a confused young fool who went into Tiffany's without a plan...

Let me tell you he got taken.

This, I believe. Not just any shmuck can navigate that hallowed establishment.

Poor, poor shmuck.

I saw Breakfast at Tiffany's a long time ago...is it more upmarket compared to the five-and-dime aspect when George Peppard and Audrey Hepburn ventured into Tiffany's to pilfer a couple of animal masks?

Plausible deniability, plausible deniability.


Yes LAM, it's quite an upscale retailer of jewelery and giftware, where women conspire with the sales staff to extract extreme displays of affection from their men.

That said if any of you would see fit to buy me a nice set of Tiffany cufflinks for my next special occasion I'll not object. *hint* *hint*

I used to watch Saved By The Bell which had Tiffani Amber Thiessen in it.

Hey remember that ep when Jessie got hooked on "Pep-pills" and she broke down crying in Zack's arms singing "I'm So Excited"?

Hahaha.

No, I think I've blocked it.

I remember the episode where Kelly liked Screech, though.

And the one where Jessie tried to help Zack learn to dance to impress Kelly for the dance competition but Zack picked Jessie instead.

And the early ones with the other girl and guy who got replaced by Jessie and Slater. Heather and Max in Miss Bliss's class. wink

Yeah, those other kids weren't really that well developed. Miss Bliss was cool though. Remember how a pre-90210 Tori Spelling played Screech's girlfriend Violet for awhile?

Hahaha. I dooo. It was funny. I laughed. That sort of role suits her much better IMHO~ wink *is mean*

How ironic that Tiffany Thiessen joined her later, huh? (Or did I image that?? I can never remember. So wasn't my show.)

Heh, I agree.

IMDB says your right, (it wasn't my show either I only watched the 1st ep).

I found it kind of depressing that that actress that played Jessie went from "Saved By The Bell" to "Showgirls".

No thanks I don't enjoy being whipped (well maybe by Caliente) but I surprise, surpise I have an anecdote about whipping.

Back in the middle ages, pious church-goers looking to escape the black death started a cult of self-flagellation. It was believed that God would spare those who inflicted pain on themselves.

Course, I have another anecdote about whipping too. It involves discipline in the Royal Navy. I believe it was the Chief Petty Officer's duty to administer the lashes using the cat o'nine tails.

Man that Royal Navy had some cool disciplinary procedures. I really can appreciate the keelhauling (being bound and dragged under the ship across the keel from one side of the ship to the opposite side. I also like the one where they tie the offender to the bow of the ship (I forget what that's called).

Now as to why it's called the Royal Navy, it's because the British Constitution allowed for the Monarch to levy taxes in order to build a navy without the consent of the Parliament. The Stuart Monarchy's use of this power to collect general revenues without the consent of Parliament precipitated a constitutional crisis which led to the English Civil War.

Too much whipping it and your cream will curdle, TL wink

The curdling seen during the agitation of milk/cream is due to complex reaction within the cream/milk.

Milk solids consisting of protein and lipids are in fact very hydrophobic. This is the case despite the fact that milk is made up mostly of water. Amazingly the glycoproteins and liproteins in the milk manage to keep milk solids solvated in the watery part of the milk (know as the whey).

When agitated, the conformation of the proteins is altered exposing the hydrophobic chains of the lipids and proteins. This denaturation of the proteins causes a cascade effect as the solids clump together forming curds.
