Participants express relief at the continuation of the conversation and share light-hearted banter about past threads.

At my house, we're very casual. The only time you'll see us put on airs is when we turn on a fan.

There is a girl who threatens to chop her husband's girlfriend's head on the Internet. I really don't know what's wrong with these people ?

You can say "Thank you" :) That's the most they expect in return.

There is plenty of advertisement for Whole Foods supermarket...inside of the store. Feels like I imagine North Korea feels like, with
plenty of indoctrination. Helping the farmers...we sell healthier food...food for a better world... Seems like ad money would be better
spent outside of the store.

Trying not to get to excited about the recent warmer weather after the pretty brutal winter. Went out with just a t-shirt and one jacket and paid the price. I will just wait, at least until the 22nd.

I have some prints up at a coffeehouse for sale. In three months I've had seven different prints on display and sold four. Of the four, three were of the same model. Two separate drawings, but the same model. I think that's statistically improbable.

How would you reconcile the loss of 22 years of your life?

I am part of the way to satisfying PFs' values: I do have an honest recognition of other people's deficiencies.

Hopefully he will receive a nice chunk of change to help make up for it --and hopefully he will have someone to orient him
to the world he is going out to, which is very different than that of 22 years ago.

I know the feeling. It is almost as if they are trying to ensure their future by giving a present,
which is often with both ribbons and strings attached.

:nb) But he is owed to the present giver.

So, who is the right person to talk to when you want to make a deal with America?

Good question. Too many cooks in the kitchen, methinks.

Ask the guy we should go to to make a deal with Poland. He'll know.

I am afraid he might be as baffled as I am.

Took this crappy photo of the Moon a while ago:

I guess the "artifact" at the bottom is either a bird, an airplane, Superman or a newly built base. AFAIK, Superman does not exist, so it could be a base. Or an airplane. Or a bird.

But if Borek knows, why would he be asking?

Still looking for a viable solution to the problem of being hungry when I stay up late: what to eat that will fill me up but will not be too heavy/fatty/rich.

Vegetables and fruits...

  • #870
For me apple works as an appetizer.
