Orion can kiss my butt! On Thursday and Friday nights the hunter dropped 6-12 inches of snow on us. Now he's pelting us with freezing rain. OY VE!

Many a Canadian, especially Manitobans, would laugh mightily at your complaint.  

Of course they would! :laugh: We don't get snow storms like this but once every 5-7 years, and it's been 10 years since we've had an ice storm like tonight's. Imagine Phoenix, Arizona, getting 4 inches of rained dumped on them in one day. It's kinda like that.

and I suspect they are no better there with the 'how to plow roads' then they are up here...


oh if it makes you feel better, it finally started snowing up here....

So I atteneded an English liturgy today. It felt a bit weird to hear English in a liturgical context.

Let's see someone else get it right! We only have so many fingers and toes to work with you know!

It was fun up to a certain point. Pretty much like solving a jigsaw puzzle. Too bad that I wasn't anyhow talented and have lost most of what I learnt.

 

[Asteriktos]

It still boggles my mind that I was learning division and multiplication and such fairly early in elementary school... and yet never got further than algebra in the rest of school. Seriously? What was I doing all that time?  ???

When (if) you figure that out, please let me know.  I was probably doing pretty much the same thing. 8)

I'm having a job interview tomorrow afternoon. A bit anxious over it despite the fact that I shouldn't have anything to worry about. Hopefully I get to sleep tonight instead of just rolling in my bed as I've had some minor troubles with getting to sleep lately.

I hate seeing my two African Dwarf Frogs mating in their tank virtually all-day every day. It's very frustrating knowing that they're getting more action than I am (which is nothing).

You and your unsatisfied hormones. :

I suppose it's better than putting two bullfrogs in the same tank and watching one eat the other.

I can sign up for a program to go to Washington D.C. for a while to work on some manuscripts. Should I do it and come over to the New World?

Go west, young man! 



(what kind of manuscripts?)

(what kind of manuscripts?)

Greek manuscripts. Manuscripts of the Iliad.

Sounds like it'd be a great opportunity...?  Good luck either way!

My grandmother's brother to the far right making me proud...the coolest guy in the family to me who I hope to be just like when I grow up. Amidst a family of uneducated, broke Mexicans, he acquired a PhD and became a nuclear scientist, inspiring me to believe that I can be whatever I want to be when I grow up. He's also a convert to Greek Orthodoxy, having converted against the wishes of his family, kinda foreshadowing what I would go on to do.

I'm very bummed that he's going to be dying in a few months

Lord have mercy.
Did he come into contact with radioactivity in his experiments?

I don't know, possibly; he has stage 4 cancer and had to have his stomach removed. I wouldn't be surprised if he did. He's only like 62 years old.

Lord have mercy. 62 is quite young.

We have a Greek Orthodox shrine to St. Nectarios here in West Covina, California. They can send oil. Many miracles involving cancer have occurred. I also venerated the rib of St. Nectarios. I had cancer and I have been in remission since 2000.

 

[Severian]

I'm terribly sorry James, may God grant you and your family comfort.

@Maria May God grant you good health, many years to you.

 

[orthonorm]

62 is quite young.

I always chuckle when I see such comments.

It's not.
