I highly disagree with you view on our bug selection Jack. It's not a competition, it's a matter of preference. Some people would prefer to be able to fly, some able to eat things whole. Not better, just different.
Woohoo our first follower! Oldfillmnoir, I don't know who you are, but I have an idea of who you may be. Anyways - you rock my socks.
Alright Jack, here's the deal. I like the idea of different fonts (I seem to be leaning towards Georgia so far). However, to be honest, I don't particularly like the tagging our posts with our names thing. I like the idea of readers having to differentiate between our writing styles, and if there's a mix up - who cares? They'll figure it out eventually. And labels are so...eurgh.
Anways, it says 'posted by ____' at the end of each post.
That's just my opinion though. If you would really like to do labels, I'm ok with it.
My fingers are swollen and clumsy from being outside in subzero temperatures without gloves for an extended period of time. It's creating a prickling, numb yet not unpleasant sensation. The muscles of my core are still shivering, at random and unexpected moments. Oh! There it goes again. I think I like it. My mind is in a comfortably buzzed state, for various reasons which I will not go into here, which also probably explain the hour of this post.
The shivering has spread to my thighs. Oh dear.
Alright, I've got a blanket on now. All is good. It's more of a rug than a blanket really, a term I appreciate thanks to the copious amounts of British literature I read while growing up. Enid Blyton anyone?
OK, I'll cut to the chase.
"What do you think of religious schools receiving public funding?"
Hmmm. Well I'm definitely biased, as I attend religious school. And by religious I'm assuming you mean Catholic? Anyways, you asked for my opinion, so here it is.
Our country - Canada, our whole government's origins are deeply rooted in religion, since it was such a big part of everything in those days. And religious schools are probably pretty beneficial to kids, as they are actually required to promote an atmosphere of love, acceptance and strong morals, something public schools don't really need to do. I want to say that since immigrants to Canada (which is basically everyone) are choosing to come and be a part of this country, it's fair for them to be required to contribute to what is considered by the country to be a good and beneficial education for Canadian children. On the other hand, it's not really fair for non-catholic people to have to pay for catholic-children's education, since Canada is supposed to be such an open and diverse country. So I guess...it's more fair for religious schools to to take care of their own funding.
But what do I know.
When people say they're joking, 99.9 % of the time they are most definitely not. It's just a way of saying what immediately pops into your head, and then having a backup plan in case it was inadvertently, or advertently I suppose, offensive. I have no problem with people saying what they think, but you don't need to make apologies/excuses for it if you meant it, or it was true, you know?
It's now 1:26, and we're halfway through Tarzan. Disney is so brilliant, or their old stuff, at least. Jane is actually my idol. Along with Dory from finding Nemo, Pocahontas, Lisa Hannigan (this one actually exists), Clint Eastwood, and ultimately - Chris Martin of Coldplay.
OMHGG Jane's father's name is Archimedes. My day has just been made.
Tarzan has a really nice voice. It's so calm, relaxed, deep and reassuring. Mhhhhm. Him and Jane are absolutely adorable. I love their hand to hand thing - Disney manages to be sensual and PG rated at the same time. Genius. Although Tarzan does peek under her skirt at one point...
I've wanted to live in a treehouse for the past 2 years of my life. Last year I realized that the logistics probably wouldn't work out. But this year, I decided...screw logistics. It's gonna happen, one way or another. I'll start working on blueprints now, if need be. Any suggestion for suitable tree types? You would be pretty helpful there Jack. And any readers of course, input is warmly welcomed.
My fingers are still tingly.
Oldfilmnoir was me completely failing at following you guys using my Blogger profile. :)
