@LZ, sadly the sauce didn't make it yet. I'm hoping to have a nice surprise when I get home... I had to use a different hot sauce, Bull Shooter, a habenero hot sauce... Well there's always next year!
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T10:58:58-05:00
@Geist, Oct. 29, 2016. Plan on it!
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T11:02:59-05:00
@GM, did you get to work before the snow started? Man, its really coming down over here (S.E.)
@BaKhan: It was lightly snowing when I left for work, and got heavier the closer to downtown I got. Now it's big fluffy flakes.
Also, I've been looking at different condos from what I originally had checked out. These ones are cheaper(since they are further out from the core). Like, 2 bedrooms +2 bath(both full) + a den for a little under 321k(around 320,900)
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-02T11:09:49-05:00
You're getting snow now? It's a balmy 66 degrees and will be in the 70's tomorrow. We won't start to get snow in this region until January. Maybe. It might snow in December but that rarely happens anymore.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T11:10:52-05:00
@GM, thats a good price! It would definetely be good to have the 2 full baths! Where abouts are they located?
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T11:11:35-05:00
@Geist, this is CANADA! lol! I'm surprised we haven't had snow already!
@BaKhan: They are in Saddletowne. My dad actually knows the builder(my dad used to draw up house plans for him). There is also 3 bedroom +2 bath, but that building isn't up yet, and I think I would probably get in on that one. So that I can rent out one room, and have the other for a games room(table for board/card games, couch(pull out) and TV with consoles, mini fridge). Check out Raven Ridge Condos. They are practically right off the train line.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T11:41:45-05:00
@GM, wow! Thats way in the N.E., you might need to learn a new language to live there! lol! But, if the price is right, and it sounds like it is, then you should go for it!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T11:45:07-05:00
I mean, I didn't ace that exam, but it felt easier than the last ones. Which means everyone else did amazing and I still end up sucking it up.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T11:45:28-05:00
@GM, the only issue I have with the two bedroom + den layout is that each bath is like an ensuite, meaning if you had company over, they would have to walk through someones bedroom to go to the bathroom. I don't think I'd like that personally.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T11:50:07-05:00
Wow, you guys are talkative.
Give me some snow! Greedy canadians, hogging up all the fun stuff! ;)
`
All I did for Halloween was dress up as a bored college kid who didn't go partying and stayed on the computer. My little brother, dressed up as an annoying gremlin of a brother as he does the entire year round, and my dad, dressed up ironically as himself, came in to go to buffalo wild wings. After that we toured campus with cigar buddies catcalling some hot squirrels (it's funnier when spoken because it does sound like girls). All in all, a pretty good halloween. Yesterday was all about avoiding studying for that exam I talked about.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T11:51:18-05:00
LZ, any new updates on whether some new bottles arrived with our names on them? ;)
`
Oh great, and here I thought I kicked that ;) habit! Twice in 3 comments!
Lord Zombitten 2015-11-02T12:00:49-05:00
Zem, I just need to get packing materials for yours.
@BaKhan: I have the same issue with the 2bdrm + den. I'm looking more at the 3bdrm, since one of the bathrooms is right off the entrance. And then I've got the games room(the one at the bottom of the floor plan). Personally, that one would be best I think. Plus, I already live in the NE, right off Stoney and McKnight.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T12:16:06-05:00
@GM, yeah, the three bedroom is a way better layout. The games room would be a decent size as well. Oh and I was just joking about the N.E. comment... ;) its all good!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T12:23:37-05:00
Huzzah, LZ! Sauce for days!
`
Can't wait to see all the pics going to be uploaded from this weekend. I still check the litter box regularly (someone has to or else it'll stink), and it's been boring over there for some time now.
@Zem: I can't remember my password for that, and the email that it's registered to is my KC one, which I forgot the password to. I had it linked on my computer...that died on me.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T12:45:08-05:00
Wow, that's incredibly unlucky. Maybe you could create a new account? Or try to reason with the site? Nah, that's never gonna happen. Try telling the email site you forgot your password (always wondered where they'll send the option to), and then work from there, sacrificing many goats and first-borns to the gods of the forum to wrest the minutest form of control back to your grasp. I wish thee luck! Farewell wherever you fare until your eyries receive you at the journey's end.
I think the recovery email is my normal one...will have to try later when I get home.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T14:33:08-05:00
My wing of the dorm is stupid. We only have AC or heat, and they switched last week to heat because it was cold. Understandable, but now it's 80 here with no wind coming in through the window and my fan broke. I shouldn't have to be sweating in my own room. I'm already acclimated to 50-60 degrees, so this to me feels like 90-95 in summer.
It's also stupid since we're like the only dorms not to have a sink in each room because it's one of the older buildings here. I heard they're going to remodel it, but that'll be too late. Oh look, a breeze!
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T15:01:58-05:00
@Zem, thats the problem with older buildings, its one way or the other. Personally, I'd rather be hot, you can always cool down. Being too cold... takes me forever to warm up again. Seeing the snow falling today made we wonder when I can afford to take another vacation... hopefully by Feb. Oh well, I'll be putting my new furnaces through their paces this year!
@BaKhan: I prefer the cold. You can always add more, rather than only able to take off so much before the police get involved.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-02T15:09:02-05:00
My feet are the last things to warm up in winter time. That is why I have to hop in the shower as soon as I get home or else I can be under an electric blanket with cold feet for another 30 minutes or so.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T15:09:08-05:00
@GM, I think my problem stems from the time I lived in Ontario. We lived there for 5 years, and I can't remember ever feeling cold. Since we came back to Alberta, I've been freezing ever since! All that bs about humidity making the cold worse, blah blah. Trust me, it doesn't. Oh well, griping doesn't make it any better... good thing I bought some insulated jeans for this year!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T15:27:37-05:00
I'm starting to think these ants are sentient. They're using guerilla tactics, coming at random times without warning in droves and are exploiting the environment and even the barriers themselves to attack us in their mission to be the supremely annoying species in this room. I wish the poison was affecting them more. I wonder if it's still even there. At least they're only coming through one side now.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T15:29:55-05:00
BaKhan, if you're cold, you can put on a sweater, but if you're hot, nobody wants to see me take off clothes and be sweaty. And humidity does affect cold, but not nearly as much as heat. Come here in the summer to see what I mean!
@BaKhan: I've been trying...but trying to find one out of a million(rough population of Calgary) is tough. And trying to find one that did show interest....even harder.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T17:26:24-05:00
If you find one for me along the way, BaKhan, don't hesitate to give me a shout.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-02T17:27:39-05:00
@GM: What BaKhan said. Stat!
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T17:28:21-05:00
@GM/Zem, seriously guys if I could find my dream girl, you guys can too! GM's seen me, I'm no catch, trust me!
@Geist/BaKhan: I've tried dating sites(Match and eHarmony) no luck. Sending out messages, and never getting responses...either I'm not acting fast enough, or they don't see anything...who knows.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-02T17:32:42-05:00
@GM: Have you had a friend critique your profile? There may be something that might be making the ladies stir clear.
Not that I'm an expert or anything like that.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-02T17:33:26-05:00
Ok, I'm heading home. The Vice Prez of the company got on my last damn nerves and I need to head out. See you guys tomorrow.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T17:35:28-05:00
@GM, I don't really believe in those internet dating sites. I think when the time is right you'll know, and be compelled to act. I totally get being shy, who wants to be rejected right? But when you see/meet the right one, you'll know, and suddenly its not awkward at all. That being said, I didn't get married until I was 38, so yeah, my method can take a while, but I know I'll be married for the rest of my life, so theres that too.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T17:36:36-05:00
@Geist: No, I haven't had a friend critique it. Might not be a bad idea.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T19:18:18-05:00
Ladies & gentlemen! The eagle has landed! We have hot sauce in Calgary! LZ, you packed it like a champ! Every bottle is intact! Can't wait to try some out!
Definitely can't wait to try some of the sauce. Now to meet up with BaKhan and get my bottles.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T19:40:06-05:00
HUZZAH! Congrats, BaKhan and GM, it's a sauce!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T19:47:38-05:00
I'm watching a livestream where one of them is having serious rage issues. They're playing Yoshi's Woolly World. It's made exactly so you don't rage. The only two modes are basically easy and easier. And so many bad quotes are coming from it. I have no idea what's going on. He literally left the stream for awhile because he was so stressed. From Yoshi's Woolly World.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-02T20:11:11-05:00
I expect to hear hot sauce reviews in the near future
Lord Zombitten 2015-11-02T21:57:37-05:00
Woot! Yaaaay! Huzzah! Woohoo!
Super glad to hear that they all made it! I can't wait to hear what you think of it.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T22:24:48-05:00
@LZ, so where is the best place to start this road to madness? ;)
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T22:26:34-05:00
Also, does calling it Brimstone, mean that you're making a career of evil?
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T22:31:41-05:00
BaKhan, his name implies he's the lord of a horde of cat zombies, so I think his career is kicked off already.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T22:36:28-05:00
@Zem, yes but I mean like (eventually) paying taxes and such. ;P
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T22:43:50-05:00
Oh! Also wanted to mention, no brokerage was charged! Nice surprise. :)
Ok...i think i have recovered from my celebrating. Had to work today with an immense hangover.
Lord Zombitten 2015-11-03T00:11:01-05:00
Yes, I'm planning a career of evil ;-)
Glad there were no brokerage charges.
Lord Zombitten 2015-11-03T00:11:39-05:00
Working with hangover =/= fun
Lord Zombitten 2015-11-03T00:13:32-05:00
Of course, it's probably more Fin than having a migraine, which I did last night. I find I always sleep best after one of those. I'm not sure if it's because I wear myself out with all the writhing, or if it's because of the hydrocodone....
Lord Zombitten 2015-11-03T00:13:43-05:00
Probably both
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-03T00:45:40-05:00
Alcohol, hot sauce, hydrocodone, and sleep. Some of those go together. We should run tests to find out which. I choose hot sauce and hydrocodone.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-03T00:46:43-05:00
No brokerage because his zombittens came to the rescue and either beat up the delivery service people or smuggled it past the border and left it at your doorstep.

2 good ones:
“For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.”
― Douglas Adams
and
“The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.”
― Douglas Adams
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-03T09:28:49-05:00
And my favorite quote of all of his:
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.
Douglas Adams
Good story behind that one in the book.

LOL! I like yours better Bakhan.
How is the juicing going?
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-03T10:17:49-05:00
@Geist, I'm off it for right now. You need to recharge for a while after. My total weight loss for the year so far is 93.2lbs. So I'm well on my way. If I can be down over 100lbs this year, I will be a very happy kitten indeed!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-03T10:29:57-05:00
I'm still sticking with the smoothies. I find that the spinach from the farmers market taste better in them than the stuff from the store.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-03T11:14:22-05:00
@Geist, any fruit or vegetable is better when its fresh, also when its ripened in the field rather than in a truck... ;) Good for you for doing the smoothies!
Lord Zombitten 2015-11-03T11:18:42-05:00
Don't you hate it when you feel like you need to sneeze, but the sneeze won't come?
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-03T11:19:46-05:00
At this rate we can have a KC pin up calendar. That would make an interesting KS campaign.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-03T11:20:14-05:00
@LZ, stare into the light! The light of all lights, and the sneeze will come!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-03T11:20:27-05:00
Seldom ever happens to me but I'm usually glad when it doesn't happen. I get afraid that a nose nugget will fly out.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-03T11:36:05-05:00
The worst is when you're eating and you have to sneeze! Can you grab a napkin in time? Hope so... ;)
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-03T11:50:09-05:00
I've been known to sneeze 10 times in a row. One sneeze irritates my nostrils and I sneeze again.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-03T11:58:12-05:00
We had a lady in our office like that, if she sneezed once she sneezed at least 10 times. Funniest part was it was a super high pitched sneeze, we used to call it chihuahua sneezes! ;) Ahhh-chi!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-03T12:27:50-05:00
She must be my sister because that is how I sneeze.
Now one guy I worked with years ago use to sneeze loud enough that the whole office could hear him. I always thought he was exaggerating just to get noticed. He was also the same person would would slather on Ben-gay and have half of the office stinking.
Lord Zombitten 2015-11-03T12:40:10-05:00
I have a friend who always sneezes a bunch when he has to alrede. It's funny because he sounds like Donald Duck when he sneezes.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-03T12:45:48-05:00
@Geist, lol! That sounds like a guy who used to work in our warehouse, except instead of ben-gay it was vics vapo-rub. He would just slather it on. It was a strange funk mix of vapo-rub, b.o., and some other unidentifiable stench, maybe road kill? The manager had to talk to him about it a few times because of staff complaints. Eventually he was fired over it...
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-03T13:57:46-05:00
My brother literally shouts when he sneezes. To be fair, he had a nasal problem for years and still has it a little so that it was always clogged and he couldn't breathe through his nose, so when he sneezed, he had to shout. My mom, though, refuses to sneeze daintily like a french chihuahua. She makes sure you all pay for her having to sneeze. I usually cover my ears because it's really loud and high pitched.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-03T15:10:02-05:00
Kinda quiet in here. Maybe this will bring everyone back here. http://9gag.com/gag/a2qAOwE `
If that doesn't work, I'll try my milkshakes. They either bring everyone to the yard or screaming away in terror, in which case at least I know you're there.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-03T16:42:12-05:00
The only thing about Daylight Savings Time in the fall that I don't like is how dark it gets so early. It's almost time for me to go and 80% of the daylight is gone. I enjoy going home with the sun still in the sky.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-03T17:20:07-05:00
That's why we get rid of it during the winter, though it has little to no effect in the summer. If that guy wanted more daylight to catch butterflies, why couldn't he have just woken up one freaking hour earlier rather than making the rest of the world screwed up and have to switch twice a year, or not, depending on where you live. The complications from it cost the world hundreds of millions of dollars every year.
Geist, I know you will help me. Bring me a bottle of scotch. I'm going to need it to get through the rest of this day...which SHOULD only be ~1hour....but will be more likely 3 hours.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-03T17:30:32-05:00
@GM, you're alive! I was beginning to wonder... ;)
I'm about ready to jump in front of a bus...so alive isn't what I am right now unfortunately.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-03T17:47:44-05:00
Hey man, don't go there! You've got hot sauce coming! Hot sauce makes everything better! Well not really, but I don't have much other positive type stuff to say... ;)
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-03T17:56:32-05:00
Well at any rate, sorry you're having a shite day, hope it gets better for you soon!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-03T18:02:41-05:00
With a bad day, it can only get better, so look forward to that. Unless it gets worse. In which case be happy you're still better off than you will be.

Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-04T09:51:20-05:00
Ahoy, everyone.
It is nice out there. Too bad my dorm only has heating or air conditioning because it's old and they haven't remodeled and it's on heat now because for 3 days it was cold and now for 6 it's been hot. It's been about 80 if not more in my room constantly, even with a window open. I have trouble sleeping in anything over 70, really. Can't wait till it cools down again tomorrow.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-04T09:55:49-05:00
Hello PoT! How are things in your neck of the woods?
@LZ, sadly the sauce didn't make it yet. I'm hoping to have a nice surprise when I get home... I had to use a different hot sauce, Bull Shooter, a habenero hot sauce... Well there's always next year!
@Geist, Oct. 29, 2016. Plan on it!
@GM, did you get to work before the snow started? Man, its really coming down over here (S.E.)

Try telling the email site you forgot your password (always wondered where they'll send the option to), and then work from there, sacrificing many goats and first-borns to the gods of the forum to wrest the minutest form of control back to your grasp. I wish thee luck! Farewell wherever you fare until your eyries receive you at the journey's end.
I think the recovery email is my normal one...will have to try later when I get home.
My wing of the dorm is stupid. We only have AC or heat, and they switched last week to heat because it was cold. Understandable, but now it's 80 here with no wind coming in through the window and my fan broke. I shouldn't have to be sweating in my own room. I'm already acclimated to 50-60 degrees, so this to me feels like 90-95 in summer.
It's also stupid since we're like the only dorms not to have a sink in each room because it's one of the older buildings here. I heard they're going to remodel it, but that'll be too late. Oh look, a breeze!
@Zem, thats the problem with older buildings, its one way or the other. Personally, I'd rather be hot, you can always cool down. Being too cold... takes me forever to warm up again. Seeing the snow falling today made we wonder when I can afford to take another vacation... hopefully by Feb. Oh well, I'll be putting my new furnaces through their paces this year!
@BaKhan: I prefer the cold. You can always add more, rather than only able to take off so much before the police get involved.
My feet are the last things to warm up in winter time. That is why I have to hop in the shower as soon as I get home or else I can be under an electric blanket with cold feet for another 30 minutes or so.
@GM, I think my problem stems from the time I lived in Ontario. We lived there for 5 years, and I can't remember ever feeling cold. Since we came back to Alberta, I've been freezing ever since! All that bs about humidity making the cold worse, blah blah. Trust me, it doesn't. Oh well, griping doesn't make it any better... good thing I bought some insulated jeans for this year!
I'm starting to think these ants are sentient. They're using guerilla tactics, coming at random times without warning in droves and are exploiting the environment and even the barriers themselves to attack us in their mission to be the supremely annoying species in this room. I wish the poison was affecting them more. I wonder if it's still even there. At least they're only coming through one side now.
BaKhan, if you're cold, you can put on a sweater, but if you're hot, nobody wants to see me take off clothes and be sweaty. And humidity does affect cold, but not nearly as much as heat. Come here in the summer to see what I mean!
@BaKhan: My bank account doesn't like you for getting me into Folklore!
I love folklore, but the book and fairy-tale kind is much cheaper.
Mmmm....nothing like a licorice cigar that is rock hard and you need to suck on it to soften it up.
@GM, sorry bro! If it makes you feel any better mine feels the same way!
@GM, we NEED to find you a woman... ;)
@BaKhan: I've been trying...but trying to find one out of a million(rough population of Calgary) is tough. And trying to find one that did show interest....even harder.
If you find one for me along the way, BaKhan, don't hesitate to give me a shout.
@GM: What BaKhan said. Stat!
@GM/Zem, seriously guys if I could find my dream girl, you guys can too! GM's seen me, I'm no catch, trust me!
@Geist/BaKhan: I've tried dating sites(Match and eHarmony) no luck. Sending out messages, and never getting responses...either I'm not acting fast enough, or they don't see anything...who knows.
@GM: Have you had a friend critique your profile? There may be something that might be making the ladies stir clear.
Not that I'm an expert or anything like that.
Ok, I'm heading home. The Vice Prez of the company got on my last damn nerves and I need to head out. See you guys tomorrow.
@GM, I don't really believe in those internet dating sites. I think when the time is right you'll know, and be compelled to act. I totally get being shy, who wants to be rejected right? But when you see/meet the right one, you'll know, and suddenly its not awkward at all. That being said, I didn't get married until I was 38, so yeah, my method can take a while, but I know I'll be married for the rest of my life, so theres that too.
See ya, Geist.
`
I'm a banana, and you can too!
@Geist: No, I haven't had a friend critique it. Might not be a bad idea.
Ladies & gentlemen! The eagle has landed! We have hot sauce in Calgary! LZ, you packed it like a champ! Every bottle is intact! Can't wait to try some out!
Definitely can't wait to try some of the sauce. Now to meet up with BaKhan and get my bottles.
HUZZAH! Congrats, BaKhan and GM, it's a sauce!
I'm watching a livestream where one of them is having serious rage issues. They're playing Yoshi's Woolly World. It's made exactly so you don't rage. The only two modes are basically easy and easier. And so many bad quotes are coming from it. I have no idea what's going on. He literally left the stream for awhile because he was so stressed. From Yoshi's Woolly World.
I expect to hear hot sauce reviews in the near future
Woot! Yaaaay! Huzzah! Woohoo!
Super glad to hear that they all made it! I can't wait to hear what you think of it.
@LZ, so where is the best place to start this road to madness? ;)
Also, does calling it Brimstone, mean that you're making a career of evil?
BaKhan, his name implies he's the lord of a horde of cat zombies, so I think his career is kicked off already.
@Zem, yes but I mean like (eventually) paying taxes and such. ;P
Oh! Also wanted to mention, no brokerage was charged! Nice surprise. :)
Ok...i think i have recovered from my celebrating. Had to work today with an immense hangover.
Yes, I'm planning a career of evil ;-)
Glad there were no brokerage charges.
Working with hangover =/= fun
Of course, it's probably more Fin than having a migraine, which I did last night. I find I always sleep best after one of those. I'm not sure if it's because I wear myself out with all the writhing, or if it's because of the hydrocodone....
Probably both
Alcohol, hot sauce, hydrocodone, and sleep. Some of those go together. We should run tests to find out which. I choose hot sauce and hydrocodone.
No brokerage because his zombittens came to the rescue and either beat up the delivery service people or smuggled it past the border and left it at your doorstep.
Morning kittens! And remember:
“Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?” - Abraham Lincoln
Good Morning Corps!
@Geist, thought this might be appropriate: “Alcohol may be man's worst enemy, but the bible says love your enemy.”
― Frank Sinatra
2 good ones:
“For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.”
― Douglas Adams
and
“The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.”
― Douglas Adams
And my favorite quote of all of his:
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.
Douglas Adams
Good story behind that one in the book.
LOL! I like yours better Bakhan.
How is the juicing going?
@Geist, I'm off it for right now. You need to recharge for a while after. My total weight loss for the year so far is 93.2lbs. So I'm well on my way. If I can be down over 100lbs this year, I will be a very happy kitten indeed!
I'm still sticking with the smoothies. I find that the spinach from the farmers market taste better in them than the stuff from the store.
@Geist, any fruit or vegetable is better when its fresh, also when its ripened in the field rather than in a truck... ;) Good for you for doing the smoothies!
Don't you hate it when you feel like you need to sneeze, but the sneeze won't come?
At this rate we can have a KC pin up calendar. That would make an interesting KS campaign.
@LZ, stare into the light! The light of all lights, and the sneeze will come!
Seldom ever happens to me but I'm usually glad when it doesn't happen. I get afraid that a nose nugget will fly out.
The worst is when you're eating and you have to sneeze! Can you grab a napkin in time? Hope so... ;)
I've been known to sneeze 10 times in a row. One sneeze irritates my nostrils and I sneeze again.
We had a lady in our office like that, if she sneezed once she sneezed at least 10 times. Funniest part was it was a super high pitched sneeze, we used to call it chihuahua sneezes! ;) Ahhh-chi!
She must be my sister because that is how I sneeze.
Now one guy I worked with years ago use to sneeze loud enough that the whole office could hear him. I always thought he was exaggerating just to get noticed. He was also the same person would would slather on Ben-gay and have half of the office stinking.
I have a friend who always sneezes a bunch when he has to alrede. It's funny because he sounds like Donald Duck when he sneezes.
@Geist, lol! That sounds like a guy who used to work in our warehouse, except instead of ben-gay it was vics vapo-rub. He would just slather it on. It was a strange funk mix of vapo-rub, b.o., and some other unidentifiable stench, maybe road kill? The manager had to talk to him about it a few times because of staff complaints. Eventually he was fired over it...
My brother literally shouts when he sneezes. To be fair, he had a nasal problem for years and still has it a little so that it was always clogged and he couldn't breathe through his nose, so when he sneezed, he had to shout. My mom, though, refuses to sneeze daintily like a french chihuahua. She makes sure you all pay for her having to sneeze. I usually cover my ears because it's really loud and high pitched.
Kinda quiet in here. Maybe this will bring everyone back here. http://9gag.com/gag/a2qAOwE

If that doesn't work, I'll try my milkshakes. They either bring everyone to the yard or screaming away in terror, in which case at least I know you're there.
The only thing about Daylight Savings Time in the fall that I don't like is how dark it gets so early. It's almost time for me to go and 80% of the daylight is gone. I enjoy going home with the sun still in the sky.
That's why we get rid of it during the winter, though it has little to no effect in the summer. If that guy wanted more daylight to catch butterflies, why couldn't he have just woken up one freaking hour earlier rather than making the rest of the world screwed up and have to switch twice a year, or not, depending on where you live. The complications from it cost the world hundreds of millions of dollars every year.
Geist, I know you will help me. Bring me a bottle of scotch. I'm going to need it to get through the rest of this day...which SHOULD only be ~1hour....but will be more likely 3 hours.
@GM, you're alive! I was beginning to wonder... ;)
I'm about ready to jump in front of a bus...so alive isn't what I am right now unfortunately.
Hey man, don't go there! You've got hot sauce coming! Hot sauce makes everything better! Well not really, but I don't have much other positive type stuff to say... ;)
Well at any rate, sorry you're having a shite day, hope it gets better for you soon!
With a bad day, it can only get better, so look forward to that. Unless it gets worse. In which case be happy you're still better off than you will be.
Since I'm not allowed to jump in front of a bus, can I throw others?
Yeah, that's fine.
Remind me NEVER to have to pay child support...or work a job that relies on actually being paid hourly when there is potential for shortage of work.
Hey, GM, never have to pay child support or work a job that relies on actually being paid hourly when there is potential for shortage of work.
`
Well, my job is done here. Someone want to remind him tomorrow? We can take turns.
Beverly hills... That's where I kinda want to be. It's just that it's hot there, so I'll live in Canada or something like that.
Morning! It's so wonderful out there right now. I have no choice but to go for a walk this afternoon. Probably to the pub and hope none of the co-workers pop in for lunch.
Morning Kittens!
Good morning all.
@PoT, good morning sir!
Ahoy, everyone.
It is nice out there. Too bad my dorm only has heating or air conditioning because it's old and they haven't remodeled and it's on heat now because for 3 days it was cold and now for 6 it's been hot. It's been about 80 if not more in my room constantly, even with a window open. I have trouble sleeping in anything over 70, really. Can't wait till it cools down again tomorrow.
Hello PoT! How are things in your neck of the woods?
