Reinforces, though, having been looking for roman number tables... that the Romans never bothered to really count very large numbers of things.
Nope, they pretty figured a thousand of anything was more than anybody would want to count.
Maybe they were right.
Neat - so we'll only have to deal with 5000 Super Bowls?
We have the organization picnic today. Everyone's bringing their families - so there'll be urchins running all over our 'secure' environment today. Forcast is for upper 80s, humidity, and a chance for a thunderstorm. And then I gotta go be social on top of all of that.
Social? That sucks!
Shucks.
We have "Kids Day on the Farm" sometime next month. They bus kids in and show 'em the test plots and stuff. The kids don't make it into the labs. We had to stuff a bunch of gift bags for 'em yesterday.
Well you done kilt it good. I'm wondering where all the hobbitses are ... the dwarves must be having a corrupting influence.
Lots to do today. The service for my grandfather is tonight. *sigh* It's exhausting, but we're all relieved that he's at peace and resting.
I'm tired of being sad, so I wanted to pop in and say...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAM CREE!
Oh.....had to get to work, put the samples on the instrument, get some coffee...
Hi, I heard about your organization through a friend and I had to check it out. I'm currently serving in an infantry unit in central baghdad. I can't even begin the tell you how wonderfull your idea is. Everyone here gets care packages with a bunch of stuff that we already have or won't use. But the idea of giving away a knife, something that EVERYONE will instantly love and appreciate is so awesome. I would like to request some knives if I may. The BK3 tactool, BK3 companion, and CRKT 5700 would be great. I know a few guys in my company that aren't doing to great on money and can't afford a good knife that would love some of these. Whatever you could send would be much appreciated. Thanks for your time and keep up the good work!
(((HUGS))) You're cherished!
Good morning, sis. You've been in my heart.
Good morning, everyone else!
Gonna post some pictures of thenuggets here in a while...heretofor known as "Chunk-Style 1 and 2".
They look like white basketballs. Dinner is served in about 3 weeks.
mmm making me hungry
Mmm... fresh chicken...
Gotta get some caffeine into me so I can ride my bike straight. Today we add the backpack. Ooh.
Izzit Friday yet?
Heh!
I just put them in their tractor, out under the shade tree. At night they come in to the porch and get back into their big rubbermaid tote. It's dim, but they can still find the food. A lot of meat chicken raisers keep them in blaring light 24 hours a day so they eat more, but I prefer the dim light...they do seem to sleep a bit and that's gotta be good for 'em.
I must say, and it may not be much to anyone else, but my venta-hood looks fantastic underneath where the lights are. Spotless.
Happy birthday, my FRiend!
