My rubber band ball

I've formed this over the course of about a year. I took about 4 months off but now I'm starting back into it. I only get a few rubber bands a day. And yes, the core is made of rubber bands

Just think...maybe one day the ball will grow enough that you can take it with you on vacation...

honestly at the size it is right now, it's very heavy. That picture doesn't surpise me at all.

Honestly LUconn I feel like you work at Dunder Mifflin sometimes with the amount of boredom that you portray at times!

It's Thursday! YES!!!!

I'm not sure if they can top last weeks episode, but I am looking forward to an attempt, none the less. (I want a "Shrutes Farms Beets" T-shirt)

It's a little known fact that, after watching his young daughter play with one of the original dark blue Super Balls, Lamar Hunt came up with the now famous title of the NFL-AFL Championship Game...THE SUPER BOWL!

That sounds like a very serious and extremely painful medical condition. I understand there is a remedy....... :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

True, and as I recall, it was sort of an accident. Hunt was referring to the game in a meeting and, thinking of his daughter's toy, he offhandedly called it the Super Bowl, and the name just kind of stuck.

Wow...I go to Wiki to fact check this really hoping nobody finds out b/c I thought for sure it couldnt be and sure enough you're correct...man, I was going to feel really really dumb


Kinda like the Seinfeld where Jerry told Elaine that War and peace was originally called "war what is it good for"

LUConn has one of two sites up on his computer at all times, either flamefans or ebay, and always minimized like he's hiding it or something.
