Really? I didn't know that. I saw huge poppy fields when I travelled in Morocco. They are beautiful flowers.
Like in the Wizard of Oz. :sleep:

I agree. That is one of the many reasons why I love that movie so much! :woot: :dancing: Some people don't even realize that the actor who plays the wizard in the Wizard of Oz also plays the the fortune teller, the driver of horse and buggy in Oz and, the wizard's doorman in Oz.

Back on Topic: Since tonight starts the Vernal Equinox. We can all try standing an egg on its' end and it should stay put.

From Wikipedia:

The term fangirl can be used to describe a female member of a fandom community (counterpart to the masculine "fanboy"). Fangirls tend to be more devoted to emotional and romantic aspects of their fandom, especially shipping. However, it is commonly used in a derogatory sense to describe a girl's obsession with something, most commonly a male teen idol or an aspect of Japanese pop culture.

Fangirl behavior can vary in intensity. On one end of the scale are those that, while harboring a crush on a particular actor or character, are perfectly capable of understanding that the fulfilment of the crush is never going to happen. On the other end are the girls who are said to be obsessive in their claims on a fictional character, even fighting with other fangirls over who 'owns' the character in question. Fangirl behavior can fall anywhere in this spectrum, but the closer someone is believed to be towards the obsessive end, the more derogatory the use of the term 'fangirl' to describe them is perceived to be.

On topic: And to do with The Wizard Of Oz -

There's a website somewhere that details how to sync The Wizard Of Oz movie and Pink Floyd's "Dark Side Of The Moon" album, and all the things that sync up when you do.
