i hope this works - first time i've done it.. i took this picture of the transit in my back garden 5 minutes ago.. the sun doesn't look perfectly round because it's a picture of a projection and i was standing to the side a little bit, but i think you can clearly see the black dot of venus.. duncan
Happy you explained that I thought it was an egg with a dirty spot on it.
I'm glad you are getting to see it Duncan. The sun won't be up here for another 2 hours. I was going to try the hole in cardboard to see it. ENJOY. I see a little boy with the excitment of Christmas morning.
if anyone hear gets a chance ,check out the $$$ it costs to do the bethel bull tour!.
just type bethel tours and get the jolt!talk about being taken ,not even free meals(just personal advice on low cost diners etc, nearby!]..
it's sad there a still suckers that buy[$$} the bethel bull emotionally,spititually and financially!
I thought it was interesting that they said that the tour guide would help them have fun and enjoy some of the sites around New York, such as the United Nations and the Twin Towers complex. I think they need to do some updating of their web site. They are no longer in cahootes with the U.N. (no need to advertise for them any more) and thanks to a few crazy terrorists we no longer have a Twin Tower complex. Do ya think someone should tell them?
kls, I was laughing so hard just reading about your little joke it brought tears to my eyes. I can soooo picture it. Thanks for the laugh I needed that.
I forgot to say my worst qualities. I'm too cynical, judgemental on myself and others and take things way too seriously.
a few weeks ago, a brother called me out of the blue and asked me if i was interested in working for him.
he told me he had his own business and was looking to "expand.
" he told me i "was a special person" with "good qualities" and "capable of going places.
I have had Primerica life Insurance for over 10 years and never hear from anyone, they just take my premiums out every month from my account.
So do I have Insurance or not?
how sorry i was to hear from dansk-he is going through a very difficult time.. i would like all prayers, thoughts, please keep this in mind ____ for me!!!!.
the sad news he has cancer.it is lymphoma!!!
they are waiting on the results of the biopsy before determining treatment..... he didnt want me to say anything at first- as he feels you all have your own problems & he didnt want to upset anyone-because he says "they are dear friends".
Best wishes and prayers go out to you and all who love you Ian.
Take care and stay positive.
well, the day started okay.. sigh.
any one have a remedy for a twisted ankle?
it is swollen on the top and the arch is tender, as well as a few toes.
Poor Xandria.......They are so painful. Rest Ice C? Elevate. Keep it elevated so the fluids don't puddle as much and cause more swelling. Keep well medicated the first couple days. Don't worry about your pride. I'm sure no one thought anything but how to help you.
Hubby sprained his ankle several times, I have never. Once you do it, it seems to stay weak or proned to recur. The best thing he has found is the air cast the doctor gave him. It supports very well and keeps the swelling down alot. It stablizes the ankle so you can function much more and less painfully then with out it. It is hard plastic with a pillow of air between it and the skin. He keeps one with him in the truck so he can get it on right away reducing the damage if it goes out again.
i've just been sorting out various paperwork and going through the filing cabinet.
as well as every pay advice i've ever had (20+ years worth back to '83) i also have every bank statement, every cheque stub and, erm ... a big wad of atm receipts going back at least 10 years !
i just can't stand to throw things away for fear that i may need them one day!!.
I also am plagued with the disease of hoarding. You are not alone Simon. Paperwork is my biggest downfall. I keep everything.
I did some thinking about it, and came to the conclusion that it validates my existence. I WAS HERE! or THERE! depending how long ago it was. I have utility bills from 30 years ago, are they antique yet? I also save nuts and bolts. It is very frustrating to know I have "One of those somewhere" but can't find it when I need it. I buy another and when I clean up I find 8 of them.
Last summer I was in purge mode and did very well getting rid of alot of junk. Plan to do the same this year. Wish me luck.
good morning, and what a wonderfull morning it is too!!!
i thought the heating was on full whack but i guess summer is here!!
!
Good Morning back at ya! It's pouring down rain here, hotter in the house then it is out side. Hope everyone has a great weekend.
a horrible, horrible day..... i hope you don't mind me venting a little...... to start out, i've been sick for two weeks now with bronchitis that i can't seem to get rid of......so i've been feeling really bad.
today is my second visit to the dr. and i found out that i'm asthmatic so i haven't been able to get over this...the dr. told me the wheezing and coughing spells that i've had are making it hard for me to get rid of all the congestion.. at lunch one of our cars breaks down and we have to have it towed to get fixed.
then it ends up costing a lot to get it fixed..... to top all of this off, since i was sick today i worked from home on a day that i would normally travel and hour and go into the office.
(((((((Desi)))))))
(well, the kids pinch my badges .
anyway, i passed my windows xp exam yesterday so can now add mcsa (win 2003) to mcsd (.net), mcad (.net), mcdba (sql 2000) and mcp.
next stop mcse (win 2003) .
Congratulations Simon. You've worked hard.
