Would work better if it was bigger

You are correct. Plenty of usefull info!
This is the biggest i could find:
Edit: Ahh, it's not the same one, but it's still blue!
Conclusion: Do not **** with a whale.

I probably should have specified that there wasn't a clearer/bigger picture available. I also googled for one for 5 minutes or so. The lack of a better image available kind of supports my point further, but it's just not as funny.
Looks like someone realized that the Triceratops wasn't a very relatable point of reference for most people and did some tweaking XD

They should have just said "no animal is as big as a blue whale" lol
or "whales are big".

actually, it looks like the original image was from an educational app/website that compared the blue whale to other large things, selectable at the bottom bar. The second image is from the same thing.
Joke ruined. Oh well =P

Massive respect to Massa, he behaved like a true sportsman after the race.
EDIT:
This surfaced fast...

The best thing is that we won't have those **** heads from ITV forcing crappy ads onto us during the races next year, c'mon bbc!
Well done Hammy!
Haha yeah the race was great, I thought it was really funny seeing the celebration by Ferrari until they realized it was for naught. I couldn't believe Hamilton made that final pass, it almost seemed like the other driver wanted it to happen.
I love the ITV coverage, but the ads are slightly annoying. I really believe it will not be as good on the BBC.
But was amazing to see Lews win.
I went mad
I've no nails left on either habd after the last two laps of the race! Would be great if all championships were decided on the result of the last race.
Well dome to Lewis and Massa for giving us a season to remember.

most likely a photoshop...apple would go mad about patents about it looking like a giant iphone...and the lack of a larger bezel is just bad design for a tablet

[Q] Scaffold Builders

I was wondering how many members happen to be scaffold builders. So I decided to start a thread about it. Who's a builder on this here XDA?
I know a cple here in north louisiana but im not sure who they work for
Sparky builds scaffolds so he can build rides. Does that count?
Pipsqueak approved this message
No scaffold, but five years as a Landscape Gardener. Plenty of building, walls/patios etc. Huge amount of physical labour, five minutes of which would probably kill me right now!
The most rewarding work ever though. Hang on, i'll dig out a before and after shot or two...

Very nice work Dirk (hey that rhymed )

Thanks! Pics were always taken on completion of the job, before the shrubs had grown. The Horticulturist i worked with was visionary, and a year or two after once the shrubs had grown a bit, you'd see what he had pictured in his head.
I wish i had a picture or two with the shrubs grown up. They always looked amazing.
@stuffinthesky: Please check your PM!
here's an amazing video of what a small team of mural painters in NYC do when they're on scaffolds...

I was supposed to take my scaffold certification last month. Didn't go. Lol

If only that were true - I got a Nexus 5X earlier today, which was totally unexpected (I had a faulty G2 which I sent off to repair, the shop lost it and gave me a store credit to replace it) and I don't yet have a USB A-C cable, so I can't!
That's definitely a first world problem but I've never owned any Android device, let alone a Nexus which wasn't rooted/running a custom ROM by the end of the first day I owned it :crying:
Clearly, I'm a rootophile!
Wow, well i have rootophobia, or maybe are brickphobia.
I've got a binary disorder, Rootophobia. Causes massive RAM consumption and migraines.
And here I thought rooting was instinctual.
