Thank Gods this week is better than the last two. My ISP is being a pain but hey...whatever right?
I want to build an altar I'm starting to get farther into the Roman paganism as well as...well I'm a bit of a mix really. I worship both Celtic and Roman Gods to a degree...(I used to have an altar...but that was a long time ago)...I'm just thinking about where to get supplies for it lol...too much planning, not enough doing. I guess I'll eventually have to kick myself in the butt instead of w
And what would you do, thrown into the world with a large family name, the over-reaching demands of a brilliant intellect, and the restless energy of a robust body? If life was as fleeting and uncertain as it was in the first century BC, if the body so easily destroyed by casual disease and violence, or perhaps the whim of an uncaring neighboring nation or near unimpeachable gods, would you not live a life of risk?
I think men were made for that. The unnatural extension of life by progress w
I recently finished reading this book, and I have to say that at first I was almost disappointed with the ending and that something really bothered me about it. In fact, I kept thinking about it for a couple of days and realized that when the method of narration and the nature of the main character is taken into consideration, the story becomes something that is opposite of what the words in the book describe. This is the first time I've noticed that the physical method of delivery of a book can
Just when I thought my last two weeks had gone *completely* down the hole, I get this call from my dad "Go to Circuit City and pick up your new computer" (or something to that effect). He ordered me a computer that I could pick up at the nearest Circuit City. And he got me 512 Megs of RAM!!!!

I'm not English-speaking but I felt a chill. LOL
Let send any thread to Graveyard really! I don't like to see this Welcome...
Danke sehr, Viggen!
My computer crashed, and I had to restore my hard drive. Read: lost EVERYTHING! That program I used to paint digital pictures? GONE! Some of my poetry and writing? GONE! Everything. GONE! I've been expecting this for a while, all I can say is thank the gods for restore cd's. I guess it's about time my computer got a good cleaning...but I've lost my instant messengers, and I'm not entirely sure when I'll have them back, so I may not be online for a while. And man, IE is slow. I'm gonna download F
Well, eventually a usefull invention!
A beer mat that knows when a glass is nearly empty and automatically asks for a refill has been created by thirsty researchers in Germany.
Andreas Butz at the University of Munich and Michael Schmitz from Saarland University came up with the idea while out drinking with their students.

Hehe got 2 or 3 more inches of draw length on my bow...my arrows (the ones made for my compound) are almost too short now I don't think I'll be pulling it back any further than this though...I'm surprised how fast my arms are getting stronger (and also that I have absolutely no stiffness from it...which IMO is really amazing). Arrows still keep going to the left most of the time though...can't figure out why they are always going to the left.
Fall is here. You can see it in the trees, feel it in the air. You can smell it in the morning dew. It rained today, it was the kind of rain that smells like snow. The wind is blowing through the trees. I love days like this. It isn't stormy, but there's a certain energy in the air that isn't there at any other time. Only in the fall and occasionally in winter. It's beautiful. I feel so alive when the weather is like this...
This week promises to be much better than last week.
I am now finally able to draw my bow back far enough to aim the arrow AFTER I draw it *lol*. It's working pretty well, but I have a big "arrow going to the left always" problem. Hit the center a few times though
Hm...interesting new blog layout. Confused me for a min there. It's all good I kind of like it now that I figured it out. It's actually easier.
Scared-stiff astronomers have detected a mysterious mass they've dubbed a "chaos cloud" that dissolves everything in its path, including comets, asteroids, planets and entire stars -- and it's headed directly toward Earth!
Discovered April 6 by NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, the swirling, 10 million-mile- wide cosmic dust cloud has been likened to an "acid nebula" and is hurtling toward us at close to the speed of light -- making its estimated time of arrival 9:15 a.m. EDT on June 1, 201
I began to study American history in university. Advise me please some good sites about this theme. I found several sites but they are very briefly and establish a facts basically whereas need more informations about history and policy to middle of 19AD. Thanks!
The more I look into Referendum C, the more it blows my mind. I can't understand how someone would want to support this, and if they do... there's nothing keeping them from donating more of their own money to taxes.http://www.taxfoundation.org/publications/show/316.htmlhttp://www.freedomworks.org/informed/issue...p?issue_id=2264
I seen today an American airline pilot landing his aircraft with the front wheels locked at ninety degrees.WoW,that took a lot of skill for the pilot to get that plane down without anyone getting hurt,top bloke
This has been the worst week like, ever. One of my pet chickens is very sick, I have her in a cage in the basement hoping she'll get better but it seems highly unlikely. She is so covered in mites I can *not* believe it. Come within 5 feet of her cage and you're likely to have them.She won't eat and its gotten to the point that I kind of wish she would just die, she wouldn't feel sick anymore and there's only so long I can handle taking care of her. And I've never seen so many mites in one place
Yesterday we seen two SAS troopers on the news who had been captured by the Iraqi police,god knows how that happened but it did.The police were going to hand the soldiers over to the Insurgents or whoever they are (the ones doing the fighting) so they could be exchanged for some Clerics who had been arrested.The Iraqi government were negotiating to get the Soldiers released when the British army said Screw that,they sent the tanks into the area to bust the boys out,one tank drove through the pol
Hehe well, I was shooting my bow again today and I seem to have developed muscles faster than I could have hoped. My fourth day shooting it and since yesterday I have managed to get two more inches of draw. (and shooting this bow is stopping the "clicking" that my shoulder had been doing when I moved it. The compound bow seemed to make it worse, but its drastically improving now...I guess because of the strengthened muscles. Somehow I don't even get stiff arms )I don't know how this happened,
I got an armguard from my mom, and my gram gave me a shooting glove, so I was shooting my longbow again today. I CAN HIT THE TARGET!! YAY!!! I figured something out-if I aim *first* and then draw the bow, it works alot better. I just have to be able to keep the bow still as I draw it, that's the challenge. ::happy dance::
I went to the festival with my grandparents (it didn't rain) and got all the stuff I needed for my bow. I met Tom Jennings (inventor of the compound bow!) and he signed my ticket. That same ticket won a door prize worth $725! That NEVER happens to me! I'll never win anything again in my life now! :PMy host has assured me that the company changing hands will not affect service. I can't be sure, but I'll take his word for it for now.
