cran...that doll....it is downright disturbing............. The Pope was a man of true integrity. He died as a Christian of faith, going to a better place. He was brave. I respect him. My father was a man of true integrity. He died an Atheist, knowing that there was no afterlife yet bravely dying. H...

Is a Llama a welsh animal then?

bombard... :o ...might as well take a 1/4 inch drill and attack your head! Yes, Celtoid is A-OK! One thing about getting cancer is that life becomes very much more fun all of a sudden. I'm putting in a huge heirloom garden this spring...nothing hybrid...just all openly polinated plants. Over twenty ...

Then after a few years moved to what I am doing now - promoting the Welsh language - and the History and Politics have been pretty useful here, too :) Geraint. Thanks for fighting what in the end may be a lost cause. But 'lost causes' are some of the best and worthwile to fight! back you damnable S...

Tried to answer all kinds of ways to get Russian Wolfhound (Borzoi) which is truly my favorite dog, but the first time I answered as best I could I was an Afghan Hound and then a series of dogs I had never heard of. I can't be an Afghan Hound for the simple reason that if I had a tail, I would not l...

I think teaching credentials are in many cases foolish when someone who is an expert on a subject is kept from teaching for the lack of them. I think that a prospective teacher should ideally have credentials, but also be boarded by the school board and a committee of teachers, with the district sup...

My kids like how each week thr bread is different than the week before. Zymurgically-...

Hi Cran. Hope that you are doing well. Thanks for the good wishes.

Hey peoples! today is my 53d birthday and thought I would pop into the pub for the first time and have a brew with you all. I am a refugee from a PhD program from hell. Was to do an Asian Studies PhD and had passed most of the testing phases and all the course work, only to be told that my Chinese w...

Curiously, I enjoy playing my high whistles more and my low whistle less. After the flute it IS like blowing into an organ pipe

Since I don't even know anyone else who plays Irish flute, this problem of not being comfortable finding the holes on another flute is not going to keep me awake at night. Love my CB with the offset holes! Don't need another flute!

("want" is a whole different thing...I want them all)

Jesus freaks give me creeps, and having one as President just creeps me out completely.

I think Kerry is a putz. There are no words in the English language to convey my feelings about B**h.

I just came back afer not visiting for a long time and now I'm offended too.

You folks are to blame!! Evil-doers all of you. I was whistling away, quite happy, and collecting more whistles looking for that right sound. But I made the mistake of lurking on this site and I was reminded of how much I really love the sound of the flute. Then I got the Hall and actually got it wo...

Lance Armstong is truly a miracle, a Texan who speaks fluent French and can also ride a bicycle.
