lol yeah, the age I have here is correct. It's only that it's been over a year since I've posted, and before that is was sparse; I'd rather not just start posting normally again without a formal "how're you doin?". And thanks for the welcome-back :smile:

It's been a while, hasn't it. Life rolls about, priorities alter, sometimes I feel as though I'm accomplishing something aside from absolute decadence, and as a byproduct of all this, I stray from some truly formative sources like PF. I miss a lot of you, and what I remember this forum as --...

I originally typed up a few paragraphs on the nature of dating being conducive towards the discrediting of all manners and groupings of humanity, many based upon mere whimsy. Then I thought, "who cares." Essentially, I say I'll only go for a blonde, and I'll get a playful "you're crazy...

I've actually been lucky enough to have been given a tour of Fermilab. It's a very neat facility, and while I forget the name of the project manager of its construction, I do remember that he was exceptionally environmentally sound, and with the excess of land, wanted the prairies to rise again...

For a different angle on a similar concept, Neil Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death argues that only certain types of media are effective at truthfully conveying complex messages. Television, according to him, is a device solely meant to entertain, and even programs with the greatest of...

How's the prairie looking? And Feynman's van?

Seems Iowa wouldn't exactly fit your stipulations. Nice people, though. I can attest to Minneapolis being a great city, I thoroughly enjoyed what little time I did spend there. I don't mind redneck or Southern culture--enough of my friends spew neocon ideology through a dip-swaddled mouth often...

Two thoughts: 1.) I briefly was confused by the notion of Johnny Cash being black and crispy smooth, instead of white and gravelly smooth. 2.) If you're ever in need of a sciatica-free land-sculpter, I'm your guy. Being two weeks into my reign of employment--working for a landscaping and...

Boy, have I been away awhile. Thanks college. Great collection of stories, and I see that your writing, like mine (and everyone's, to an extent) is malleable by whomever it is you've just been reading. I dare say, however, that his collection of stories is the singularly most intriguing set...

I know which one you chose. Were you contemplating a woman's deck as well? ;)

Have you two had to spend the summer apart, yet? Three months away from a person you love is no simple matter, and I think could be indicative of how a more prolonged long-distance relationship might go. Try to use that as a gauge for how well you two could get along when the time comes.

Ah, the hate watcher. Hugh Gomptin, self-ascribed cynic and misanthrope, made his watches devoid of any emotion sans hatred. This meant that 95% of his product wound up broken, and those watches that could be loosely described as functional were rumored, in lieu of sea shells, to whisper...

Ah, Nero. Most typically a reference to the matricidal Roman Emperor who burned down most of Rome to build his own palace, but in this case it obviously refers to the acronym N.E.R.O, meaning North Eastern Ribs Organization. Their story is a tragic one. Founded by James Whogimmy, a distant...

Which brings forth the stupid quetion, What is 'it'?

In my hometown, whenever I go running, I typically follow the schematic of doing half my run and stopping at a local park, whereat I'll walk around until I'm ready to finish the second half of my run and return home. One day, I was walking in the park, enjoying the scenery, when I see a ~50...
