Fred ,'A Hole in the World'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
You're a non-native speaker from a culture that doesn't even use an "s" for plurals
That's only because we're using "im" for the masculine plural form and "ot" for the feminine plural form. For explanation about construct state, however, you'll need half a bottle of vicodin and something to remind you of what sanity looked like before you decided to ask. We only use apostrophe in the following cases. (And hell, I speak most of all 3 languages there and reading it is still very confusing).
One of the advantages of being at war in a country as small as mine?
Media can't hide things for long.
The planes noise I despise, because hearing it probably mean they came back from another bombing? Other people hear the aircrafts too, and thank God, posting about it.
So I now know there are probably more wounded/dead soldiers, thanks for someone lives in the flight direction of the main hospital next to the Strip. Just like in the late 90s/early 00s, when I lived in the north, and every time I heard an army helicopter I knew something in Southern Lebanon went wrong. Usually 1-3 hours before they said anything about it on the news.
The silver lining? You can prepare. And they can't hide information for too long. And somehow, you feel more connected with that.
I confess, lasy week I looked up the areas of Israel and Gaza Strip. According to the CIA factbook, Israel is roughly the size of New Jersey. And Gaza Strip is roughly equivalent to (2) Washington DCs side by side. I can't imagine trying to hide military air flights. Fixed wing or not.

You know you are in a room of brainiacs when grammar causes some of the most heated discussions.
So if you hear a clogging sound coming from Dallas, it's probably my arteries. In a yummy but not so smart move, I cooked the whole package of bacon, and what didn't fit on the pizza went directly in my belly. Nom nom nom.
Cooked bacon keeps very well for a day or so for BLTs and such.
that would require restraint.
Publix makes some nummy spicy fried wings.
I just got a bunch of oyster mushrooms at the farmer's market -- I think I see risotto in my future
I finished making my slides. Finished making my handouts. Presenting tomorrow.
I have clothes to wear -- new red shirt, old black slacks. I have a clippy thing to keep my hair off my face. I have shoes and knee-highs. I have makeup. I have a watch and earrings. I do not have a necklace, because I tend to fidget with necklaces while talking.
I also have a whole lot of nervousness. And a cold sore. And my hair decided to take this weekend to develop a huge knot that I've got to comb through now.
You're going to rock this thing, Hil!
...I cooked the whole package of bacon....
You saved the bacon grease for making cornbread and biscuits and other yummy things later, right? Bacon grease keeps very well in a can in the refrigerator.
