Well, hardly. Canada is a very big place. London and Paris are closer than Calgary and the Sunshine Coast. And in travel time, probably more like Edinburgh and Nice. But yes, certainly, in the same half of Canada.

With weather at least as different as Edinburgh and Nice! (We don't believe in snow here on the Coast. Even while we're shoveling it, which does happen sometimes.)

2. I clicked on your signature...
Is it true? Are you the writer/co-writer of many of MS Press books?

Yes, I've written some 30+ books over the last 20 years, many of the recent ones for Microsoft Press.

I wonder if we should not change the topics title

the actual might be misunderstood as a request to female forum members to post their measurements

After 1100 pages of this thread I think we can safely say that is not a problem LOL(either way)

Cuppa #8

Ti Kuan Yin

In my best 2/3s cup - Milk Oolong, the genuine one.
Both of us like it more than steamed over milk.
Its aroma is not sickly sweet but subtle. The same goes for the flavour.

Guayusa
Anybody heard about it or tried?

aceflor · 11-12-2011, 05:26 PM

B, forget the pics.

(obviously not answering you astra

)

I am so high right now... A Myolastan (muscle relaxant) combined to a Feldene (anti inflammatory, the strong 2mg one) will do that to you. I pulled the muscle of my right calf, very stupidly, pulling off my right runner with my left one. Every time I do this, I pull my muscle, and would you believe it, I keep doing that because I am too lazy to actually sit down and undo my shoe properly, and because I hate streching. 43, going on 44, with lots of blonde moments...

Anyway, had to automedicate and I can safely say that I am stoned

@ beppe: Congrats! Finally got rid of him, did ya ?!!!!

Rainy afternoon, sitting around, reading March to the Sea and on my second steeping of Lung Ching Dragonwell with a couple of Hobnobs and a fire going.
