Anyone who doesn't think cunt is offensive...

...hasn't learned to use it properly...

Seriously: Overuse in the UK has watered down its delivery impact. Earlier comment regarding the mystifcation is dead on. Perfect example in Euro progressive reverse: in Germany you can wave your hands at someone which means "Fuck You Dumbass!" but give them the finger and they will write down your license plate and call the cops...for a 1500 Euro ticket which I seem to have slippery shoulders enough to avoid. But you know something, I don't do it often but there is nothing like giving someone the middle finger and then the sight of them freaking and gesticulating in their car when I flip them off for being a total dick in traffic.

Mission accomplished.

Trace Minerals, Marrow, and the Opposing Thumb

The rise of the human has been documented as being due to the fact that we co-ordinated in groups to run the big cats off of the carcasses of their kills, then bashed the bones with stone tools for the nutrient rich marrow inside.

As with anything in the ecosystem or even in middle school sport. It only takes a small initial advantage in competitive ability to rapidly excel in any system. This was one of our first big steps.

Perhaps the Grub Diggers, Bean Twaddlers, and Ant Slurpers were mildly successful, but the Bone Smashers kicked ass! They quickly gained body mass and strength...and an odd side effect occured: they were able to better protect their young and each other.

Agitarians are lucky that we meaties did all the hard work that allows them to finally realize that after a few stridently vociforous years of shunning meat, fish, eggs, and dairy that they start looking like a sick animal. Minerals. Minerals. My those dark rings under your eyes are certainly a sight!

Certifications prove one thing for sure

They prove that you have the determination set an additional non-requisite goal, go about preparing for that goal, and to finish what you start. Many of the folks out there bemoaning how worthless they are likely have never completed an arbitrary and tricksy MCSE course load of 6 or 7 exams. They are not devilishly hard, but they do require that you study, and if you do not take them seriously you will fail. You want to get a lackluster score or fail, go to a braindump. The wrong answers there will confuse you if you are just aping without technical foundation. Go poke around, it will shock you what kind of garbage (used to be at least) posted.

I retain an MCSE from days when they were not so common, but I now have years and years of experience behind me to boot. I still have a bit of fraternity with other cert people, and my MCSE buddies are achievers.

I also have helped to write certification exams...which is an interesting process.

So those of you can poo poo this if you want to. Bravo young man. You set a goal for yourself, and you did it!

Punxsutawney Phil predicts six more weeks of winter

Snakes!

Snakes come out in the winter to sun themselves, good time to catch them...if one is so inclined.

I was in Ost Tirol hiking about a bit late in the season, and came across a little snake at around 1800m with snow all around. It was on the path. I nudged it out of the way with it hissing aggressively at me with my hiking stick when my German partner pointed out that this was a Kreuz Adder. Poisonous.

Well I am more used to the rattlesnakes back home, so I was not too worried...but point be made if there is a touch of sun, then some snakes come out...and that is just the type of event that makes the prediction. Sunshine as opposed to heavy clouds.

EU to ban the patio heaters that ate the planet. Not.

Ventilation and where did that girl go!?

Ventilation? Ha. Long ago I worked in a bar where we had a massive electrostatic smoke eater and two industrial size belt driven ventilation fans that literally dumped the inside air contents outside - wholesale. Guess what? Doesn't work.

Smoke is dust.

Sorry to you smokers, but the choice of 30% results in the lack of choice for 70%, and you all do not even notice the way you smell since you participate. Dump an ashtray from the night before but don't wipe it clean. Smell it up close. Voilla.

I vote for keeping the heaters since they are for comfort and if we do not stop the mal-informed greenie weenies somewhere they will seek ever higher plateaus of efficiency at the expense of the human element that makes living just that. Unless there is cutting wind without a windstop the heaters work sufficiently well to turn a quick fix into a less onerous experience. Anyway you smokers will skim more than a few birds outside...trust me. So quit your whining. You will meet and have conversations with like minded and likely interesting people even if you are not on the make chasing girls or guys. Adversity creates fraternity, and smoking is already a social link.

If scamming inside a bar you should meet a girl, go outside with her while she lights up, and you will win points. Or she might stay outside or leave...

Nicely done!
