  • The Time has come. If i was on a more interesting level than 7 I'd be saying one more but is booooring.. nightly night all. .sweet dreams happy flinging. .
    *places flashlight in @kimmiecv special safe* night Pahtnah hope all is well. .♡♡♡♡
  • @Kathyprincesspagechanger strikes again! LOL

    How is everyone tonight?

    ACK! I have been trying today's challenge and can't even figure out how you get 60k+! I'm probably the lamest flinger out there. Oh well back to the flinging...
  • @Kathy, I used the free tax software TaxAct. The link is on the IRS.gov page. Simple to use and follow, electronically filed, and we got our refund within a couple of weeks thru direct deposit to our checking account. For state taxes there's a fee, but I paid it because all the info was already input, and automatically gets transferred from the federal return.
    You could still get the booklet and send it in. Good luck with it!
  • Thanks @Sweetp for the info;) I'll give it a shot this weekend after car shopping; )
    And your not a lame finger Your Ferocious! ! Dont you forget it!!
    OB I'll have the usual. .another dull day i see:( oh well offf to fling ferociously ;)grrrr...
  • 69 degrees yesterday, 36 today, and the forecast for tomorrow is 58. What is wrong with the weather this week?
  • @blahalb09 -- Same as is wrong with the weather everywhere, all this year (hint: global warming). Parts of LA are supposed to get to the high 80's this weekend, and it's still winter!
  • *press L2 on jukebox*
    @mvnla2 the earth has warmed on averages 0.6º in the last 100 years. .
  • Night night everyone Have a wonderful Friday! !*places flashlight in @kimmiecv special safe*
    Happy Flinging all! !
  • Night Ma
  • Night Pa..
  • @blahalb09, IKR! As @mvnla2 mentioned, it's supposed to be in the high 80's here in Southern Calif, but Wed it only got up to 73°F, and yesterday didn't get any warmer than 70°! Hopefully it'll be nice this weekend, as hubby and I are planning to go for a long motorcycle ride with some friends.

    How're you feeling today @Rat9? Hope you're getting better, so you can go back to flinging with us!

    All's quiet now, so I guess I'll head back to my favorite flinging chair. OB, I'd like a double espresso please and a homemade cinnamon roll.

    Good night or Good Morning @everyone. It's FRIDAAAAAAYYYYY, YAY!
    Happy Flinging!
  • Good Morning everyone/hmm err @Sweetp; )
    Happy Friday! ! Have Great day all and happy flinging! !
  • Happy π Day everyone!

    From the resident nerd :) https://twitter.com/amslimfordy/status/444463606860890112
  • Thanks Slim; ) guess we should put some on the menu lol;)
  • @AMslimfordy @TomPuss -- Looks like there's more than one nerd in the nest.
    So Slim -- Just where in the expansion of Pi do those numbers appear? What are you doing to celebrate?
    The celebration next year must real spectacular!
  • I've never seen TT displayed that way before @AMslimfordy. But the math works, at least as far as I was willing to take it. It gets kind of nasty by the time you get to the reciprocal of 11095. Who's the idiot that had the time and dedication to figure that one out?
  • BTW @Slim, how far have they taken it out to now? They were in the billons the last time I looked, but that was a long time ago.
  • If you say so @Slim. Calculus and I were not great friends in college. I only made it through two semesters. And I didn't have A's. My GPA was 3.74. Can you guess what pulled me down?
  • @AMSlimfordy -- Thanks! Always enjoy learning something new. Don't remember ever being taught them. I hope you're not working on the next million coefficients.
  • Night-night @all you brainiacs :)
  • Hey @sweetp hmm for some strange reason i am not getting notification when you comment here lol..I get comment notification from here whenever anyone comments. .but lately i come here and There you are..and i got no notification hmmm strange. .
    But hi !! Nice Pi symbol ;)
    Thanks @TomPuss for the absolutely scrumptios looking pi pie;)
    And ermm no freaking idea what all the numbers mean or do or add to not to mention WHY it matter? OB I'll have a PigKiller please and apiece of pi;)
  • It's the most important number in geometry @Kathy. It's probably the most important number in the world period. We couldn't do much without Pi.
  • Good Morning everyone! ! Happy Saturday:)
    @sweetp Pa ty for trying to explain but my brain doesn't calculate math beyond the basics.
    Im sure my daughter appreciates the numbers though:)
    Have a great day all! !
  • Hi everyone, just a pop on!! Ask @ABSM about pi. I think he has about 63 or something memorized off the top of his head. I am so sad I missed that it was Pi Day!!
    In 2015 pi day will be on 3-14-15!!! :D lol Get it...?
  • It only happens every once hundred years @BubblesLover, but next year on March fifteen at 9:26.53am and pm, 10 digits of Pi will line up. Twice in one day. There's going to be a Pi party that day.
    Tell @ABS(?) that if he memorizes a few more digits he can hold the world record for reciting Pi from memory. He only needs to memorize about 83,000 more. He's so close.
  • Hey !!! I got no notifications! !
    I missed @bubbleslover:( and Pa..
    OB ya gotta tell me when peeps pop in !! Anyway i've had a crap day..I need Yes Neeed a PigKiller please. .*sigh* nooo new car in my future :( I cried all the way home. .they lie..and i was so excited. Guess i should go back to not getting my hope up only lead to disappointment:(
  • Ummm .. @SweetP Hate to tell you, but you have a typo in the numbers of Pi. Think you copied two extra when you added on to those you knew!
    Back in the ancient day of computers, I think I knew Pi to 10 decimal places, because the computer didn't know it! That day is long gone, but they do look sort of familiar.
    @Rat @AngryBirdsSpaceMaster -- If ABSM is going to go for an unbeatable record, he should memorize all of them! : D (Nerd joke).
    @Kathy -- Sounds like a miserable day. I hate shopping for cars!
    BTW -- I had to google continued fraction to figure out what Slim's equations meant. Wikipedia has a pretty good explanation.
    @BubblesLover -- Good to see you and great that you know something about Pi. Try the continued fractions (from Slim, above) if you're interested.
  • Thanks @mvnla2 yep tough day. .
  • Sorry to hear about the car @Ma. I know you were looking forward to that new car smell.
  • Hi @all from sunny Florida ! Bedtime now but went to the beach today after taking hubby to the airport - I've got one more week here with rain only forecast for Monday - hoping I've missed pi day as I'm with @Kathy - I know it's really important but I don't have to understand why! OB a large hot chocolate for me to sink whilst trying today's challenge!
  • Hey @mvnla2 I didn't realize there are only 3 boss hogs! ! Congrats on being the high:)
  • Wow! Three weeks @Mumsie? I always say if you're going to jump over the pond, make it worth the trip. May you have nothing but blue skies, long drives, fast greens, and extremely large cups for the rest of your visit.
  • I missed pi day! NOOOOOOO! What if I created a temporal pair of socks in the space time calliapy? Heck, with all these advanced equations in play, my chances of figuring out how to solve this dilemma just dropped down the feeding pit! Darn you fraction expansions!
  • 5 days til Divergent!
  • LOL @theanonymoussomeone! You didn't miss too much around here, ashttp://www.biggsh-d.com/ quite a few of the regular patrons have no idea what it's all about. Anyway, good to see you stopped in.

    What a wonderful vacation you're having @mumsie, and hope the rest of your stay is filled with nothing but blue skies and sunny days of golfing bliss!

    So sorry you didn't get your car @Kathy. I guess it just wasn't meant to be this time, but you'll find the perfect one soon!

    Oops @mvnla2 you're right! I should've finished it 3.14159 26535! It was around 2:30am when I typed that, falling asleep at my keyboard.

    Speaking of sleep, it's 2:00am and my bed is calling me. Good night @all!
  • @Mumsie -- Good to see you. Did you get to play at Hilton Head? How was it? Hope you have good weather for the rest of your visit.
    @Kathy -- I forgot I was a Boss Hog. : D Pretty rarified air up here. How can I possibly have more points than Sal?
    @SweetP @theanonymoussomeone -- Had to google Divergent. But what does Harley Davidson have to do with Divergent? SweetP -- Have you read Divergent?
    Oops! Sorry about the confusion TAS, et al.
  • @mvnla2 yep your higher than sal you'll reach the top first out of the three of us!
    And i think you have @theanonymoussomone mixed up with @AngryBirdsSpaceMaster who is @bubbleslover brother:)
    Hi @tas sorry i missed ya.
    Have a great Sunday everyone; )
  • @Kathy -- Thanks! One thing about a slow day is that not many people will see my mistake!
  • We all saw it @Mvnla2. We just didn't say anything.
  • So the closer we get to the magical 100,000 comments, the fewer posts are entered. It's as if we are all afraid of getting there.
    Where's @Kimmiecv? Hope she is well. Gaah! She hasn't posted since 3/9! Are you OK Kimmie?
    Any lurkers out there? @ABCrazy @Burpie??
  • No!! I just looked at my only highscore and I'm bumped down to second :( oh well! @mumsie Florida must be nice!! Meanwhile another 5inches expected tonight into tomorrow :( it's so depressing! At least next month we are going to Disney World :D :D Have a nice day everyone!!
    @kathy Oh good luck with your car!! ;)
    Too bad I missed @pa
  • Hey @mvnla2 ikr it seems likethat! !
    Kimmie is o.k just under the weather a bit. She be around soon
