'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
would preclude me from dressing up and playing soldier, which is half of what's sucking me into this
Nope. Rev War and Civil War both had female soldiers. Some who cross-dressed and pretended to be men, some who didn't (at least in Civil War, don't know about Rev).
Because my dark side is fun and full of light sticks and fruity drinks.
The dark side is very enticing. Particularly when it comes in such close proximity to ChiKat's bosom.
The cruel war is waging/Johnny has to go......
LONDON, England (CNN) -- An eco-car that can travel the world using a fraction of the electricity it takes to power a light bulb has been unveiled by its British creators.
The hydrogen-powered Ech2o needs just 25 Watts -- the equivalent of less than two gallons of petrol -- to complete the 25,000-mile global trip, while emitting nothing more hazardous than water, the UK's Press Association reported.
But with a top speed of 30mph, the journey would take more than a month to complete, even if the car was driven flat out with no pit-stops.
I have a new monitor, and everything is oddly stretched out. Idon't know the correct configuration for a flat screen and it makes MY EYEBALLS HURT.
FIREWORKS!!!!
Ah, right where we left off, Jesse.
We need an ironing board and a mattress pad. I don't want to go to Target today, so, chapeau. ^.
At least one of the redcoats yesterday was a woman, which I was happy to see, because I was afraid the two-X chromosome thing would preclude me from dressing up and playing soldier, which is half of what's sucking me into this.
You could be Deborah Samson, aka Robert Shirtcliffe!! Make up a head wound bandage, as well as one for your thigh (she dug the musket ball out of her leg herself, to keep her secret--she ended up discovered due to a case of "brain fever"). Just remember that your uniform'll have to be circa 1782-3, from one of the Massachusetts regiments.
I swear to god, I would watch fireworks every day. I'm excited to go see the Philharmonic in Central Park mostly because of the fireworks at the end. The one thing I miss about my old job is the fireworks at the big summer benefit.
I totally had a book about Deborah Samson as a kid -- I remember the digging-out-the-musket-ball part vividly.
Green jacket and a Baker rifle for Susan, I think.
Oh, indubitably. But since there don't seem to be many re-enactors from that era in this neck of the woulds, I'd probably need a 1770's persona too.
I begin to see the point about the dark side....
