    Beauty

    A while ago, the eastern sky was dark with heavy clouds and the western sky was burning in sunset. A hawk, or maybe an eagle, was circling a couple hundred feet up, searching for small furry critters. The golden sunlight illuminated him against the dark background; it was like a halo or aura or just pure glowing life radiating away up there. A camera wouldn't ever be able to capture the moment. What have you seen recently that was beautiful? Matt
  2. Guano as define by Webster's: A substance composed chiefly of the excement of seafowl and used as fertilizer; also : a similar substance (as bat excrement when used as fertilizer. In skydiving terms: A BADASS Freefly team As in: "Only bird shit and idiots fall out of the sky." This team is both!
  3. I like onion rings, as long as they're not overcooked. When they're still soft in the middle, that's perfect.
  4. I gotta admit, I'm a little bit puzzled why anybody who's never met me would want to stalk me. Hell, who am I trying to kid? Anybody I've actually met certainly wouldn't do it! Matt

    Snake ID

    snake pictures Found this site. From the photos, I'm thinking maybe that's a small bull snake. Worth a look, anyway. Matt
  6. Non-behavior mandatory, got it. Should I expose myself to the neighborhood again? Matt
  7. (Trying to fight it, 'cause that joke was far too lame to admit I laughed.) Matt
  8. You know what's humbling? When doing the damn laundry is enough to make your back seriously ache, that's humbling. Might even be a little humiliating. Matt
  9. Difficult question to answer, since I haven't been a stalkee before. Not sure what the qualifications are. Oh, am I supposed to keep out of this thread? See, screwed that up too. Matt
  10. You and me both. Might actually be a good match then! Matt

    Don't know, but that head looks kinda triangular to me. I'd keep my distance until somebody who knows what they're talking about identifies the critter. Matt
  12. Wow. If Karma was chasing a ball, I bet she wasn't exactly traveling at a "safe and reasonable speed" either, and that's a big dog. Border Collies are some of my favorite people too. I'll definitely send some prayers/vibes/chi/whatever. Glad Karma is ok. Matt

    Shee-it! Riggah please! Matt
  14. Who's "going" number one on what?! Matt
  15. A few years ago I lost a roof to a tornado. Very scary experience. For quite some time after that, if the wind picked up a little bit my heart started beating faster. Took a while to get over it. Matt

    I think the best I've seen recently were: "all" used as "I'll" Example: I think all do that. "common people" used as "come on, people" What are some of your favorites? Matt
  18. That's crazy! When I had all four wisdom teeth pulled, they gave me some memory-blocking drug that worked great, but I was only missing about two hours. Not twelve! Matt
  19. No. (i'm playing hard to get, is it working?) It would probably work better if you didn't tell me that's what you're doing! Matt
  20. Never had either, but I was thinking that VFR is the only way I'd accept it. Too easy to lose control getting distracted in IMC, methinks. Matt
