suggestions for a bird lover

by sowhatnow in

i want to know id anyone has an inexpensive easy way for me to install some sort of sound system so i can hear the outside birds in my house in winter.

i have to doors closed its like 30 degrees outside, i stepped out to toss some bread crumbs and heard so many birds outside, and i would love to hear those birds in my kitchen while i eat.

would a cheap baby monitor work ?

Shop for:

outdoor microphone for listening to birds

Have the wireless or wired microphone fed to your indoor sound system.

Brian Williams should interview Ben Carson

by Simon in

just imagine the crazy stories they could invent together !.

ben carson has to be finished as a candidate doesn't he?

can you imagine him being the republican nominee?

glenster

My main concern is to not have harm whether you believe in God or not. I'd
recommend liberal stances if you go Abrahamic as with social issues generally.
Carson's pyramid idea is a sort of conservative innovation. what's he supposed
to tell ISIL--"you're too conservative"?

PS: he's a Seventh-day Adventist which is what the JWs partly branched from.

Jeb Bush would kill a baby !

by Simon in

ok, specifically he was talking about hitler.

apparently he was asked whether, if he could go back in time, he would kill him when he was a baby.. and he said "hell yeah !".

but still wtf?

Your thoughts on the new Star Wars?

by Coded Logic in

so i've thought for a while now that jj has the lowest bar to clear in cinema history.

all he has to do is make a movie that's not as bad as the prequels.

but upon viewing the recent trailers, it looks like he's actually got the "feel" of the originals down.

glenster

I hope this doesn't cause more than a minor detour from the topic but an even
greater science fiction memory lapse is indicated at the end of my last post on
Movies--"Supersonic Saucer," 1956, is where "ET" came from. At one point the
antagonist with a big tricycle is even implied as trying to kidnap the alien in
a basket on his handlebars.

Its Halloween today... and they're here! UFO/spooky/creepypasta thread

by Saintbertholdt in

ok i'll start.. one of the best and most credible cases of a ufo sighting is the 1976 tehran ufo incident.. at approximately 0030 hours local time (2100z), 19 september 1976, the imperial iranian air force command post at tehran received four reports by telephone, from civilians in the shemiran city district, of unusual activity in the night sky.

the callers reported seeing an object similar to a star, but much brighter...at 0140 hours, a ...f-4 was scrambled, piloted by lieutenant parviz jafari and lieutenant jalal damirian.

jafari would eventually retire as a general and participate on 12 november 2007, at a national press club conference demanding a worldwide investigation into ufo phenomena...while the object and the f-4 continued on a southerly path, a smaller second object detached itself from the first and advanced on the f-4 at high speed.

Have you heard the one about "Back to the Future" Predicting 911??

by EndofMysteries in

when somebody posted this on fb, i was anxious to see how ridiculous it would be, probably worse then the gb prophecies, etc.

after watching the clip, i honestly don't know what to believe.

at the very least it's very entertaining and interesting.

glenster

In the 2000 game "Deus Ex," about 2052, the Twin Towers were left out of the
NYC skyline. It was just conservation of graphics (no prophecy was claimed)
but the official reason given was it was due to terrorism.
