Installing an SSL Certificate
Does anybody know how to install an SSL certificate? I have a pretty simple website for my business (domain is on Go Daddy and I edit the site on WordPress) and I've been told it's bad for google search purposes to not have the security. If anybody knows how to do this and can walk me through it, I would really appreciate…

World's fastest ant, faster than Bolt (relatively speaking)!
In the interest of inclusion of the animal kingdom in all things running, we now move from the marvelous feet of Eliud Kipchoge's amazing sub two hour marathon to the marvels of the world's fasted ant. I present to you, The Saharan Silver Ant, capable of covering a distance of one meter (about 108 times it's body length)…

Misattributed quotations (for gits and shiggles)
The idea is this: Take a quote from pop culture and attribute it to the wrong author, philosopher, artist, historical figure, you get the idea. If you've done your job well, the end result should give you and perhaps a few others here a mild chuckle. Sorry, no guffawing. This isn't really that type of exercise. I'll start.…

Does anyone do any side jobs online?
Quick backstory, I’m on a full disability because of a brain disease that is very similar to MS. Like most diseases, I have good days and bad days. On good days, I’d like to make some extra money because, well, making it on disability alone is very difficult. I’ve been working on licensing music, but that takes time. So…

Last Week Tonight With John Oliver
I haven't seen a thread on this show so I figured I'd start one. If any of you daily show fans haven't seen it, it's great. It's on HBO, but they post them on youtube as well.

Alphabet Roulette
We used to play this as kids, and it can be rather silly, if not hilarious. Really simple game, and perfect for here, because it just keeps going.. sort of.. eventually we may run out of 'x' & 'z' words! Lol, but here's how it goes. I'll start with a word that begins with 'A'.. the next person presents a word that the…

What is Your Favorite 90's Western Film?
If you would like to make a more informed decision, here is a list from IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls029017434/ I struggled with whether or not to make Wild, Wild, West one of the poll options, as opposed to a lesser known film with better ratings-such as, The Jack Bull. I have a feeling it doesn't really matter…

Star Trek: Discovery (new series)
Just stumbled across this article about the upcoming new series. I was intrigued because of Bryan Fuller (after watching his breathtaking Hannibal series), but this (test?) footage has me even more interested. Is it just me, or does the U.S.S. Discovery look like a cross between Federation and Romulan or Klingon design?…
