23228. judithathome - 12/20/2007 4:24:41 PM Yes, it always helps to hear what others have done in similar situations...most of us here have had relationship-career-relocation problems and we could help you sort things out.
And I'm not so sure anyone who knows you would read our posts here...this is a fairly protected part of the internet. You really have to be looking for it to run across it. 23229. judithathome - 12/20/2007 4:29:57 PM Keoni's son and his wife sent us the most gorgeous live wreath yesterday...the aroma of it is spectacular. It has balsam cedar and eucalyptus and beautiful red berries of some sort. I put it up on the front porch, right above the mailbox. It looks fabulous!
And it's the first live greenery we've had like that because Keoni is allergic to all pine, cedar, fir trees...when I opened the box (which was shipped from CostCo) I knew instantly it was "live" and told Keoni "Don't touch it!!" He said "How do you know it's real?" so I guess his sense of smell is going (ha!)...it filled the room with scent! 23230. jexster - 12/21/2007 12:51:49 AM AC AC AC or Mago or any other alien type
A dispute has arisen for you to decide
The wine review terms such as "hint of blackberries with vanilla undertones" crap like that....are they unique to the Land of the Free and HOme of the Brave or are they used in the Jungle of Surrender Monkeys as well? 23231. judithathome - 12/21/2007 1:03:57 AM You mean do the French use such flowery terms? I want to say "Mais oui" but will leave to Mago to answer. 23232. alistairconnor - 12/21/2007 1:26:45 AM Certainly they are. They are, after all, technical terms founded in actual chemistry and stuff. Your semi-literate palate may not get the vanilla or the garrigue or the black truffle with a hint of fox piss, but the guys are not making shit up... 23233. jexster - 12/21/2007 1:57:55 AM I win
AGAIN 23234. judithathome - 12/21/2007 2:45:01 AM How so? 23235. jexster - 12/21/2007 2:58:11 AM I've an asshole republican friend who grew up in Suisse came to America 30 years ago and never tires of putting down Americans, this time it was wine and spirit ads...Never say that in France
Of course, I knew otherwise and it is now authoritatively confirmed by a REAL FRENCH PERSON

At lunch I solved a 'medium' sudoku and after work a 'difficult' sudoku puzzle while I was having a couple of drinks, and then I practiced on the drums. It seems the Sudoku kept some mental facilities online while the alcohol was freeing up some inhibitions and I had the best drum practice session that I can remember. It wasn't a real lot of fun doing a 'difficult' Sudoku while I was 'under the influence', but the required concentration seems to have significantly aided my ability to create while syncopating. 23239. concerned - 12/22/2007 8:43:53 AM Btw, any suggestions where I can score some good marijuana online? I really miss the stuff. 23240. concerned - 12/22/2007 8:57:26 AM I can buy marijuana seeds (to grow outdoors) and may do so. For a few years, I grew marijuana indoors (for personal use only), and the weird thing was when I planted the seeds that my plants created, each generation was less robust than the generation before, until after about four generations, the damn things would hardly grow, let alone mature. I never saw a discussion of this online, and of course, I wasn't about to solicit viewpoints among acquaintances about this.... 23241. concerned - 12/22/2007 9:14:28 AM I remember several years back when I brought this kind of stuff up that some of you Lefties thought I was trying to set you up for some kind of weird bust.
Ha ha ha. 23242. concerned - 12/22/2007 9:16:56 AM If I have enough smarts left at almost 53 to design competitive electronics, why shouldn't I get high if I want to? 23243. concerned - 12/22/2007 9:18:32 AM Btw, they're getting images through that camera circuit I designed & posted a while back now. 23244. concerned - 12/22/2007 9:20:29 AM My second design where I work, which I haven't posted here, the gigabit ethernet and USB 2.0 is proven working already less than a month after the boards arrived. 23245. wonkers2 - 12/22/2007 2:04:38 PM Congrats! 23246. arkymalarky - 12/22/2007 5:41:30 PM I see I missed a party. No fair. 23247. Wombat - 12/22/2007 7:17:25 PM Goodness, a Bush sycophant and a stoner at the same time. I guess they were right about marijuana warping one's judgement after all...
