Well done!

This was actually making me happy on Tuesday evening, but the falconry centre won the Best Attraction award :p it's amazing when you look at the size of some of the other attractions we beat. We had a lovely evening, all got very emotional and I could not be more proud to work with these people and be a part of it all :p

Well done! Now have fun applying, lol


That's for 2019 when I actually graduate! I just wanted to be sure I could get into law school before setting my sights on it.

Also, FUCK YEAH I DID IT! (Yes I've been hyperventilating all day)

I'm looking at Mars, Saturn, & Venus all lined up in the southwestern sky. Nifty site.

Stepped outside after reading this but it was cloudy in the SW. I'll try again tonight but right now it's completely overcast.


Looked at Saturn through a crappy telescope one time. It was about the size of a pinhead but still it was a glorious sight.

I've never spotted Mercury but mostly through lack of effort on my part. One of these days...

The only person that hates lawyers more than your typical client is most likely a lawyer.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

It's not for everyone. And a lot of people that practice shouldn't be.

I wouldn't go as far as to call myself a terrible person, though. Although it may be buyer's remorse.

The only planets are Earth, Mars, and Jupiter. The rest are fakes/hoaxes.

Mercury can be very surprising and really bright depending on season(heat haze), our distance from each other, & spotting it at evening or dawn time. Dawn is 100% better.

It's brighter when further away though, isn't it? I mean, the sunlit crescent is larger when it is closer to the sun and on the opposite side of its orbit from us. When it's on the Earth side of its orbit the crescent is a sliver rather than gibbous as seen from Earth.

I was at a seminar for the last week, and during one late night drinking whisky with my boss at the hotel bar he told me he's requested that I receive a substantial raise at the end of my 6 month trial period. Today my old boss called me to ask if I might consider coming back to my old job. Feeling appreciated is pretty great :unsure:

I think i am going for Nursing.. I am somewhat terrified going back to school and the amount of steps...this means..i have been reading the materials and wonder if I am intelligent enough...I love talking to people!!...that's my skill-set... how to explain that to others....

but it's still a positive focus..and today that feels good. I have done sales forever..i'm good at it and it's easy..but totally not satisfying. It doesn't make me happy.

time to break my comfort zone.

Quite honestly the concept of Nurse Nico brings tears of joy to my eyes.

Go for it!

What exactly is this dish BK? Looks like shredded fish and shrimp with some type of herbs made into a broth over rice.

That is exactly what it is! The fish were caught by the old man. The only thing that went that went wrong was that the fish indeed became shredded this time. Usually it's nice big hunks of them. It's one of the simplest things thrown together that wind up tasting like it was a gift from the Cajun gods.

Onions, bel peppers, garlic


Mmm that would be delicious. I have a feeling I would like Cajun cuisine.

I am interested by the use of rice. How common an ingredient is it in the US? Its basically a staple over here.

Well it is down here for sure. Almost every dish roast, gumbo, etouffee, chillie & many more consist of it. Funny enough our neighbors who moved down here from Montana where baffled by our use of it but have been 100% converted.


Well given your position in the delta I suspect you have similar environmental conditions to ours, so I bet rice is easier to grow and thus more common.

It goes really well with brothy dishes, especially spicy ones. I mean we rarely have nay dish by itself you know. We always combine it with rice.
