You must have said it before.

Entrance of the Gladiators. Or Yakkety Sax. But that quotes Entrance of the Gladiators so that doesn't count.

Quick, RandomGeekNamedBrent. Find a personal detail that you've never told anyone and then keep it a secret!

why would I do that? I'm an open book.

also, I think it's called sampling in reference to music, not quoting.

Post by **Sleet** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 3:39 pm

Sampling is when you directly copy the sound. Quoting is when you play a melody or something.

Mon Jul 04, 2011 3:43 pm

it may not be sampling, but I'm pretty sure it's not quoting. I don't think there is a word for it.

I stand corrected. still sounds weird to me, though.

I was talking with my Dad earlier about how I didn't really like to go anywhere on July 4th because it was always busy. He pointed out how it tends to rain as well.

A thunderstorm just started, not 30 minutes after they all left. I found that incredibly amusing.

Ooh, you lucky kittywolf. I love the beach! ^_^

Mon Jul 04, 2011 6:19 pm

I like the boardwalk. I don't like swimming or heat or sand, so I don't like the actual beach much.

Swimming and heat I like. Sand, not so much.

Post by **Sleet** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 6:31 pm

Heat is fine when there's water. Swimming isn't the best. But sand! I love making sand castles! <3

Daggy · Post by **Daggy** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 6:37 pm

I absolutely love swimming. If I had an indoor pool I could keep open all year, I would.

Blue Braixen · Post by **Blue Braixen** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 6:39 pm

I love swimming AND sand! <3

CaptainPea · Post by **CaptainPea** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 6:39 pm

I love swimming in sand

Daggy · Post by **Daggy** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 6:39 pm

You should try swimming through sand!

Pea always beating me. :<

Yep, Pea's quick on the draw. *giggles*

I like sitting in sand when its hot out.

You. Swimming in sand.

I don't know why, I'm legitimately terrified of that right now.

Mon Jul 04, 2011 6:58 pm

but it sounds so fun.

Vespier Leo · Post by **Vespier Leo** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:00 pm

Swimming in SAND? I would think that would hurt mildly...

Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:01 pm

pool filled with sand? not as fun as chocolate filled with... wait, that wouldn't be fun either,

Psykeout · Post by **Psykeout** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:02 pm

In quicksand, you are advised to float.

last time i was at the beach, we planned on making a really deep hole right by the water, but not very big around. So it would basically look like a puddle. As a bonus, when the water level rose over it, someone might have fell in it. However, we only got it about three feet deep.

How so? So long as it is an appropriate temperature and you don't go very far below the water, swimming in sand is delightful

Daggy wrote:You should try swimming through sand!

You can dig up water

Post by **Sleet** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:04 pm

That's a great idea in theory, but considering the nature of sand it's likely to cave in, meaning the only way to make it deeper is to make it wider.

Psykeout · Post by **Psykeout** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:06 pm

It was working really well. I think the fact that it was filled with water helped a lot.

Vespier Leo · Post by **Vespier Leo** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:15 pm

Wouldn't that make it Quicksand?

Psykeout · Post by **Psykeout** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:17 pm

no.

by that logic, the entire ocean is quicksand. just a big hole of water with sand at the bottom and surrounding it.

Vespier Leo · Post by **Vespier Leo** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:21 pm

True. Humm but to swimm in SAND wouldn't you need a very high sand to water ratio?

Daggy · Post by **Daggy** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:21 pm

The world is a giant quicksand pit. The horror.

no. Desert animals do it all the time.

well you can't swim in real quicksand very easily.

Vespier Leo · Post by **Vespier Leo** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:25 pm

True so I would think that swimming in sand would be both difficult and hazardous to one's health.

You can still swim in it though. It's exaggerated in Hollywood.

Post by **Sleet** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:28 pm

It's dangerous but it's not automatic death unless you pull some fancy maneuver like in movies.

Vespier Leo · Post by **Vespier Leo** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:30 pm

Still It isn't something I would think I would like to swim in.

Psykeout · Post by **Psykeout** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 7:33 pm

It's basically mud.
