*ahem*
My dad was “wrong-handed” and made his living by painting. He was one of the most intelligent men I have ever known.
Had he been around for these days of computers, I’m sure he would have been ambidexterous. Or ambivalent...
We almost always have Constant Comment and Earl Grey around, and we have Green Tea with Peach, currently, although it might be decaffeinated.
I’ve read about Red Bush Tea, but I have no idea what it might taste like. In the “No.1 Ladies Detective Agency” series, Precious Ramotswe drinks it all the time.
I love that character, (I wish I had all of the books about her!) and I can assure you that rooiboos is tasty. Rather citrusy and aromatic. Decaf is ok, since I drink so much tea (uaually 3-5 cups a day) and I’m not fussy about green, black or white.
On some of the sites (Teavana.com especially) they have pots made of a clay that should be used for only one type of tea, since it apsorbs the flavors and the tannins. I should live so long as to afford one, even a small one...
However, I have decided to persue teas and tea histories/usages, etc., to appease my hunger for info. it would seem ALL tea is beneficial when it is properly brewed.
And I need to go to bed. I am so tired, and I need to be up early in the AM to head to the ATM and Walmart. Tomorrow evening, I’m having company, and I don’t relish it, but whathehey?
The Stig is still crouching in the corner...:o[
G’night ‘Face. :)
Ta, Moose...
Good luck - give poor Stig a kiss.
It is Gary Larson therefore it must be funny.
His books told me everything i know about US wildlife and domestic Animals.
That may be, but I have a cunning plan...
I still have a Z80-based CP/M system in my garage.
It even booted up, last time I tried it.
Lots of fun ideas for it if time were no object; getting it online, for one. Maybe cobble together a primitive text-only browser...
Whoa.
Z80?
Zilog Z80 CPU.
Does this cunning plan involve a Turnip?
OK, perhaps Mr. Snake was of the “Make Love Not War” variety. I’m happy that you survived the encounter and am certain that he and his descendants probably don’t have the genetic makeup to survive in this world. However, it would be fun if we could all be happy together. (This is a family thread, so I won’t include the exclusions.)
Yeah.
That’s from awhile ago.
Still have a Commodore 128 laying around somewhere.
It works, doubt the disks do though.
“whap-whap-whap sound Im hearing?
“
My thought, exactly.
To be perfectly honest, I respect all creatures. Creator:creatures.
The guy wants £450,000 for it! Says it's a most treasured replacement for his formerly-treasured £400,000 Dream Turnip, which met a tragic end as a failed hat.
Piffle, Mr. Snake was probably just confused or not even really paying attention to what I was.
I probably would have had that nice dual option venom they have for my efforts if he had been alert.
[They have heamotoxic and neurotoxic venom.]
