    I threw it all out before the power came back on. I was starting to smell it.

    You couldn't have stored it in a cooler out in the cold? Or did it start getting warm outside even before the power came back on?


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I was sleeping with the oven on (and the door opened) to keep warm. When I woke up this morning it was 80 in here.

    Personally, I would have thrown the food outside into the snowy ice. That's honestly the only advantage of losing power in the winter. Keep it out of the sun and if the temperature stays below 40°F (4.4C), you're good.

    I guess there's always the chance of animals eating it though. Doesn't matter if you're an urbanite either, raccoons and opossums are everywhere.

    A mixed sauna and couples were all busy touching their partners? I guess that must have been depressing after a while if you went in alone.

    What kind of Sauna is that? The ones I use to go to work at 80º - 90º and at those conditions to do any kind of "exercise" equals fainting or heart attack.

    It was recently turned on when it happened, wasn`t that hot. Plus we didn`t have sex sex, we fooled around for a bit (so I guess it wasn`t EXACTLY like the porno, but close enough)

    Being gay presents so many opportunities that just don't happen when you're straight.

    Whaaaat? You guys spent all this time trying to convince us it's biology not a personal choice. Colbert was right.

    I just recently moved to a new location and unpacked a whole load of stuff. Once I got my computer system going I wondered why my setup sounded different (PC -> DAC -> Amp -> Headphone and/or speakers). It weirded me out at first and I thought something broke, but there was seemingly increased detail, clarity and overall volume as well.

    After some thinking, I settled on the fact that I forgot my power surge protector at my old place and that in fact the power here is now "better" than in the previous setting. That's the only real explanation I can come up with. It's not all flowers and roses though. The increased clarity/volume boost means there's also slightly increased sibilance. Still, overall it's a rather pleasant surprise.

    I've got more realistic explanation - "snake oil" placebo effect caused by happiness to moving to new location. :P

    Hah, I knew someone would say that.

    Thing is, placebo only works when someone expects a result from some form of intervention, right? You give someone a pill that they think would have an action, and it does (even though it doesn't physically do anything). It's the power of belief.

    Now if someone thinks they're getting results without believing beforehand that something should change their current state,.. it's not placebo is it?

    There's no "happiness" involved Xel in moving here Xel. :P

    Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.

    You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.

    That's awesome man. We need more intelligent people becoming doctors and fewer politicians and financiers.
