The problem is my arms look like strawberries when I'm done with them!
Found a photo of the concert online that has me recognizable on it. It's now my wallpaper!

Dad's just whipped up the first bunch of home-made icecream from home-grown strawberries...

If you have a large enough freezer, you could get an ice-cream maker. That's a sort of thermos that you can put in a machine with a mixer on top. The
thermos has to have been deep-frozen beforehand (you'll have to leave it in at -18 C for at least 24 hours: Dad leaves them in fulltime) and it's not
easy to clean it once you're done mixing it; but even simple vanilla icecream is SO good... you have the advantage of being able to make it with
fruits instead of syrup, you can use actual vanilla (most store-bought ice creams contain castoreum, which is made of beaver reproductive gland fluid,
yes for real) and you can try out exotic flavours.

I might buy that thing in the future, home made ice cream must be so good, I already think about some flavours i'd like to taste, like passion fruit,
pinapple, etc...

Pineapple's great, we tried that too! Some fruit is better structured for icecream, like avocado or banana: pineapple's a bit wet but it's very good!
We've also made a lot of melon icecream. And chocolate, mmm!

knowing is better than wondering. Still tragic.
OTOH, ice cream is an old summer favorite for me.
Lately I make smoothies with strawberries and bananas and vanilla yoghurt. Just takes a blender! I use whole frozen strawberries makes it cool... yum!

I'm not going to say anything about it zappa.com Bonny, but you have my support. I really can't stand JP and I've always thought Galoot was a bit of a
dick.

I feel the same way. G-C is from NY. That's just how they are. You could say they can't help it. People who serve you like waiters and bartenders act
the same way. Life is hard, strength is necessary. But they think that being an asshole improves your chances. The fact that being a jerk also
improves your chances for getting beat up, mugged and shot, merely proves for them this simplistic view that life is hard.
It's a viscious circle that they follow toward the drain. It's not that they can't see another way. They don't even believe there can be another way.
Jpfnk doesn't even realize he's doing it. He got all the kindness beat out of him a long time ago. Thinks it's for suckers. Can't see past his own
tender nose.
and Geoff, like I told Caputh, trying to play chess with a pigeon may seem funny at first until you try it. Intelligence has nothing to do with it.
He'll cajole and wheedle and complain 'why won't anyone talk to me or play with me?' Then when you try to put him in his place he'll knock the pieces
off the board and crap all over it while aiming to pick out your eyes. Playing the game, having a debate, abiding by rules is not what he aims to
do.
I got a job yesterday, on my birthday. I start today. I'll be a monitor at a homeless shelter. We'll see how it goes.

Happy birthday Punky! Great news about the job too, so a double congratulations!
Aqua: There's this one user calling himself Galoot Co-Log-Nuh, you may remember him from when his wife was expecting twins and he asked everybody for
name suggestions? He's gone most of the time, but occasionally he pops back up. Whenever he pops back up, he tends to bump the old threads where he
was fighting with Isaac. I pointed it out to him and called him a bully, and things went down a slippery slope with the forum bullies JayPFunk (come
on, you HAVE to remember that guy!) and a new one you don't know yet. What didn't help was some... let's use the adjective disturbing, remarks he made
in a thread about the Ferguson riots and that he needed to tell about his masturbating habits in what was otherwise a perfectly nice topic. So he's
fresh on my ignore list.

Yeah, I remember JayP and Galoot, didn't really like them, I stopped going there a long time ago cause every thread was becoming an open war, this
plus the Moderation issue.

It's been very calm there now for the past two days. Hmm. Could use the quiet since I'm pretty fully booked with Primus in 3 days and Patatje Metal in
7 (managed to get a date for that, wonder how that's gonna go) and I'll be blind-guiding soon.
