Not 4 dahlahz, but free food, travel, and some extra cash that I wouldn't have made sitting in my studio writing winterguard shows. I'm no professional, but I enjoy food.bloke wrote:Sleighride-4-dahlahz this afternoon and tomorrow noon.

No snow here but the roofers are finally back after a weeks of mid-west monsoons. Hope they finish up before the next wave of precipitation. I'm tired of putting buckets around the place!bloke wrote:2" of snow so far in bloketon (and a heavy fall continues).

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

New Zealand won't let US warships dock in their country because those ships might have nuclear weapons; but, because of the sheep, New Zealand's per capita contribution to air pollution is very high.

Re: Update Update
I kind of care about definitions of such things.
But it doesn't really matter where the note is or what it is called... chances are I do not sound good on it.

I am trying to convince my wife that using the tools of modern technology can indeed make life easier. The tool of modern technology I advised her to use: Facebook.

Beginning again to be a tuba player.

A guy at work brought in Ghost Peppers that he grew in his backyard. I put an entire one in my mouth and ate the whole thing at once. I figured it would be like a banana pepper, maybe a little stronger. Not exactly. I probably won't eat a ghost pepper whole again.

The Bhut Jolokia, as it is commonly known—also known variously by other names in its native region, sometimes Naga Jolokia—is a chili pepper previously recognized by Guinness World Records as the hottest pepper in the world.
