Are you being serious, do you know the person who made the video? I know you're tied in to the deaf community... Sorry if I offended.

shit. I spoke very poorly, ambiguously. I'm sorry. I meant, "Yeah, I know! Computer voice?! What a dumb choice."

then, a separate thought, but mashedrightthehellinthere

"Wait, maaaaybe the video poster was deaf, and used the computer text to speech to narrate his video."


really poor articulation of my thoughts. No offense meant, none taken, but I'm a little embarrassed by my poor communication.

A birthday cake, d'uh.

RE V's link

Lajos Kassai is my hero. I'd love to move to Hungary and live there and study. I think I posted a link of him in super slow motion.

The red headed Russian gal is equally astounding. I showed her video to the older home school girls who were taking a bow making class with me.

Not today, but last Tuesday and Wednesday and, by Christmas, on eight other occasions in this increasingly festive time ....
In the Bleak Midwinter
We wish you a Merry Christmas
and so on.
I'm playing tuba . Mr Limey is playing cornet, and we are ably assisted by two chums (another cornet and a trombone player).

Don't forget the mulled wine/wassail/glog!

Just click on the links, or are you reading this on your iphone while you are at a concert or something?

No such luck ... lying around drifting in and out of naps and not firing on all cylinders, is all ...

Sounds beautiful, Limey!

Naps are the best, I love that feeling of drifting in and out of dreams and sleep.

seconded.

I've only gotten up recently, and the other three kids in the house are still sleeping or quietly alone in their rooms. It's 1:45. In fact I've only gotten my own damn self up to reply to another thread I read on my phone (from bed). Where is that thread, or was that a dream too?

...

there was a dream about a cellar thread... footfootfoot had posted a lovely picture of some well forested hills, somewhere country. I playfully replied that I wished he'd said something about being there because I was in the same area at the same time, or so I thought. footfootfoot had taken and posted the picture a long time ago, years, from a trip where he'd been helping a friend survey some land. He was in an elevated location, and the picture was the result. *my* picture was very similar, but was from a recent trip. I, too, had been out in the woods and at a high elevation but because I had been repairing some high tension lines that had failed. I had a whole diy repair photojournal of the repair/replace process (in my dream) and also took a scenic shot from on top of the tower.

When I realized I'd replied to a years old thread, I was embarrassed.

They're helping this afternoon. It's such a luxury, drifting. And drinking gunpowder green tea, and not having any more essays to write right now!

I referenced this in Jim's apartment thread so I figured I'd best post a pic. Our leather couch turned out to be really poorly made so I took the refund money and built this. I was afraid it would look terrible, but decided that would be bending to other people's opinions and this is my house done my way so I give you, Moose Couch.

I LOVE it! I love the entire look, the beamed wood ceiling, the wooden floor, beam over the windows, and what you built - I want to sit in the sunbeam on the top level and do my work there today!

That is far better than anything you could buy.
