. (Or not pass!

Oh, I got a new teacher. Now, for the rest of the year, I have standup comedy--I mean, Geography.

And guess what! I have a Minolta Maxxum 7000! YAY! I did a star trail exposure last night. I love it! I ended up leaving my Grandpa's with three camera bags full of photography stuff. I even (finally) have a telephoto!

The sugar at least, being composed of glucose and therefore a key ingridient to the body's energy manufacturing process, would consider being consumed as its sole purpose. However, as sugar lacks a cerebral cortex it cannot consider anything unless we consider for it and such considering would be undoubtably biased and I should really be studying my latin instead of rambling on like this...

Farewell, I go to memorize the pronouns!

Okay. Have fun... (I guess?)

It's latin class, of course it's fun! Now I wish I could say the same for my classes.

Well, how am I supposed to know that.

...Telepathy?

Lady Marion Magdalena · 02-09-2006, 10:44 PM

Or simply words will do...

I just know that my sister, who is really into tea, likes it and gave me some, and I liked it, so I bought some. It's from S. Africa, as Lotesse's link showed. The kettle's just boiling now, I'm getting another cup!

Oh, me! pick me! I love Rooibos. I just discovered a tea shop in my area that sells wonderful blends of loose leaf.

trolls' bane · 02-09-2006, 10:51 PM

And at Christmas, I had my first cup of looseleaf...Needless to say, I drank more tea than I had for dinner.

You know, Eddy Burrough's books? Never read em, but I'm sure they're telepathic because that's how everyone thought Martians were.

OK, I can buy that ... perhaps the cream, tho (hi, Nurv

) has some left-over sensibilities from once being part of a sentient being and doesn't like being consumed...

TOUGH COOKIES, CREAM!!!

Rian, you are just strange.

***RÃan*** · 02-10-2006, 01:12 AM

thanks

The last sane person · 02-10-2006, 01:18 AM

oh! I have a good website for you. Its my friend, where I get my bows now that my old one is history. www.sevenmeadowsarchery.com Toth bows rule!

I know both Kim and have talked with Toth, good people. Though I was hoping they would make a better scythian bow, so I could replace my broken one. Thus far I still use a hungarian.

Ode to Spot

Felis catus, is your taxonomic nomenclature,
an endothermic quadruped, carnivorous by nature?
Your visual, olfactory, and auditory senses
contribute to your hunting skills, and natural defenses.

I find myself intrigued by your subvocal oscillations,
a singular development of cat communications
that obviates your basic hedonistic predilection
for a rhythmic stroking of your fur, to demonstrate affection.

A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents;
you would not be so agile if you lacked its counterbalance.
And when not being utilized to aide in locomotion,
it often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion.

O Spot, the complex levels of behaviour you display
connote a fairly well-developed cognitive array.
And though you are not sentient, Spot, and do not comprehend,
I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend.

Even though I don't practice either, I've always been fascinated by archery and swordplay (there being quite a few movies containing these.) And there was this documentary on Discovery The Ways of the Bow.

*jaws drop*

I've never been into archery... but the name SevenMeadows intrigued me, because its Hungarian meaning sounded very familiar, but in connection with... music. So I looked at that link - wonderful bows

- and found out that I was right, they are in connection with the band HÃ©trÃ©t. I've heard them play, when they were in my town, twice, IIRC. I really like their music.

And now for something to wake me up... *heads towards the espresso machine*
