There is a game in Thailand called Sepak Takraw, which you can see played a lot in parks and in villages. Kind of like volleyball but can only use your feet. I tried once, and only once!! LOL Quite difficult.

I've never tried it. I guess I'll never know whether I have a latent talent for it, which might have propelled me to international stardom. The road not taken.

The comparison of Earth vs Jupiter is worse. Should we no longer call Earth a planet?

True! But yeah, Earth is a planet.

IMO, Earth is a planet.

Maybe we should stop calling Jupiter a planet. It doesn't matter, anyway, as it can't hear us.

Fucking Jupiter, what an asshole. We should just stop calling it at all.

Planets, all planets in the universe, not just the local 9) should be ranked by size and smaller planets should have DEI protection.

@kluurs That was interesting, but it sounded like a computer voice doing the commentary. Wish they would have used a real person,

I don't know if it's true, but it is mildly interesting.

Seems like sometimes pop/rock stars needs 25 drums or so in their set. He seems to make just as good a sound with just a few drums.
