Stick and bubblegum, oh yeah. Fascinating. I tend to agree with Schopenhauer.

i'd love to hear your suggestions for good sites featuring popular science (esp' astronomy and evolutionary biology), natural history, poetry and english literature.
and anything fun and surprising you might like to spring on me would be welcome too!

I know why you are here.
by compound complex ini was expecting you, but not so early in the day.. i saw you walk up to my neighbor fred's house last week while i was out getting the newspaper, once again tossed into the bushes by a careless newspaper boy.
today, it's the usual routine of rising at dawn, fetching the paper from the bushes -- where else?
-- and settling into my comfy, tattered wing back with the first of several cups of coffee.

I've always loved that quote from Hamlet, CoCo. Isn't Hamlet speaking to Horatio though? Or are you taking poetic licence ?
Your prose reminds me of my late husband's favourite film, Meet Joe Black. Have you seen it?

OrphanCrow, yes my garden is very dark with very little light pollution. When I first saw the ISS I couldn't believe how bright it is and how fast it moves. -

Yes there are some JWs on here but there are many people who used to be JWs but who have left the religion after researching it. -

I'm very sorry you lost your grandpa. JWs can be very strange about death because they believe that the dead will be resurrected to the earth. Almost as if they shouldn't grieve at all as if that is showing a lack of faith. It's not healthy is it? Loss is always painful and should be acknowledged, no matter what we believe. Take care at this difficult time. -

I love watching the space station move across the sky. Here's when and where to spot it. Let's hope it's mobile friendly enough for you. It's fine on my iPad.

Depends what you mean by literature but this site has listings of everything from Joanna Trollope to Anthony Trollope to Dickens. To find out what they all wrote plus anthologies and series of fiction it is invaluable.

RubaDub are you being naughty? You are very cheeky sometimes. I found this book selling site and recently new posters have said they have had problems finding Crisis of Conscience and when they do it is very expensive.
You are not serious about Demunz are you, surely? Just messing with me, right?
