GENERAL, GENERAL THREAD

It's for topics which aren't worthy of their own threads.

Did you find General General Yet?

I hear he slipped over the border into Niger with a certain Colonel who shall remain nameless

So when is this mystical New Facebook starting? I thought it was supposed to be yesterday...

Bill Bryson explains what makes a trillion . .

Imagine, if you will, you are in a colossal safe in which there is $1 Trillion in clean crisp dollar bills. Imagine further that someone tells you you can keep each dollar bill you sign and you manage to sign one dollar bill every second. How long do you think it will take you to sign each and every dollar bill in that safe? A few weeks? A year?

Allow me to explain.

Signing one dollar bill each second will make you $1000 richer after 17 minutes. After 12 full days of furious dollar bill signing without any interruption, you will be a millionaire. That obviously means you will have $10 million after 120 days and $100 million after 1200 days (just over 3 full years of dollar bill signing). Here's the great part. You will have signed enough dollar bills after 31,7 years to call yourself a billionaire and after almost 1000 years you will have signed enough dollar bills to be in Bill Gates' league. Fact of the matter is, only after 31,709.8 years, without any interruption, will you have signed enough dollar bills to own the trillion dollars in the safe.

They need a new story now. Fed up of fighting dragons and water.

Have you tried this? http://doodle.no.de/

Does it end? I'm doing it now and it just goes on and on.

A chain ends when nobody bothers to add to it. But you can play for as long as you want.

I once had a chain with about 50 pictures in it. The first one featured something to do with American football, evolved into pictures of cupcakes and eventually ended with American football again. I bet that doesn't happen often.

Oh my God - I'm hooked.

I've drawn about 15 chains now... this is so bad!

You should draw a tiny symbol somewhere on the pictures so we know it's your drawing. I dunno what though?

Here are mine if you see them.
