y'all might not know this about me but when I was like 3 I had a plastic velociraptor that was my best friend. his name was Velocie and I made a giant painting of him, I no longer know where Velocie is but the painting is framed on the wall. I can show it if you'd like

I'd like to see the picture of vloce!

ahh good old "WHY THE HECK DID I POST THAT WHAT WAS I THINKING AAAAAAAAAAAH -". truly a fun feeling. Sleepless night guaranteed or your money back! 10/10 reccomend.

Random fodder for creating ocs that you all might find intresting: Don't mess with people who use swords and wear cloaks at the same time! (At least in middle ages.) This is not because that they'll look really cool after beating you up...This is because you might get a potentially lethal dent in the head and lose the fight. Cloaks were made out of very thick cloth that even sharp swords would have trouble pentrating and could thus prove very useful in a swordfight. By taking off the cloak and whirling it in one's offhand like a net/shield, one could entangle the opponent's sword and essentialy disarm them. Additionally, cloaks were weighted down at the ends with stones or dense pieces of metal to prevent them from flapping around in strong wind, so a cloak was essentially a weapon in itself, comparable to a mace. There was even a type of fighting techniuqe called 'Cloak and sword', just think of that.

On the other hand, I'm rehearsing my role for a play our grade is putting on for the drama festival this friday. We're going to be in front of the entire school in five days time and I still have no idea how I'm supposed to lie lifeless on the stage without any facial expressions for the entirety of Act II while my friends lament over my dead body...

Guys... This was my comment

H'mmm, 54 years ago? That's 1970 . . . about three years before the founding of Cricket magazine!

I was at Target and there was a half-eaten chocolate bunny on a shelf, with the wrapper ripped apart and scattered everywhere. what's wrong with people?? why didn't they eat the whole thing??

I'm not going to be as active at all on the CB (whether it be on random thoughts, my ski lodge (( *cough* which was already super inactive *cough*)), Kyndgom, anything) this week. It is tech week for the school musical all week and we have our performance on the weekend, so I will be quite busy! I'll pop in when I can, but if I'm less active don't worry, I'm okay!

Can't wait for the solar eclipse tomorrow! Our school is providing special viewing glasses to see it. (Remember to wear them if you want to see the eclipse!) 

I was thinking of revamping my Question of the Two Days thread from ~a year ago because it was fun :) What do y'all think? I know most of the people who frequented it have left the CB, but some of you probably remember it.

for those who don't, check it out and tell me if it looks interesting? https://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/downtoearth/node/536074
