Its so prevalent for a Canadian to say Sorry, that we had to produce federal laws that made the act of saying Sorry mean that it can not in any way be considered an admission of guilt on its own.

I work as costruction plumber for the last decade. I dont get death threats, but I still get a lot of derogatory remarks. Usually only once. They tend to back off when I curse them and there parentage out creatively. Its a weird Industy.

Friends. Jesus i hated that show, yet it was everywhere. Buddies had viewing parties, and discussed how everyone was one of the characters. Absolutely terrible.

Started my next reed screen project. It a narrow door screen for a weird variation on an Alchiga tent. (Think of a yurt with no lattice walls just curved roof struts from the ring to the ground. Fun. #antir #tirrigh #sca #mysca ##reedscreen #wool #roving
A reed screen with patterns made out of red, blue, brown, and Grey wool wrapped around the reeds before being tied together.

There were a group of women athletes that went to the WH (forget which sport). The official picture had all middle age to elderly men standing infront of the women. You could barely see them through douchebag politicians.

Whatever sparks the habit of reading is good. If a kid wants to read something well above the normal level of kids their age let them. Reading is a gift, always encourage it. Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy was my spark of a lifetime of reading.

Periodically my local grocery farmer market chain will have a few cabbages cut in half. I feel like getting three out of 6 numbers on a lottery ticket. It's a good feeling... not great just good.

If I was a franchisee of Bricks and Minifigs, I'd be spitting bullets at corporate for devaluation of brand. Gawd knows if a franchisee caused a ruckus a tenth as bad, corporate would be on them like white on rice. #bricksandminifigs #recklessben

Your astrological sign is meaningless to me. What i really want to know is what school of Philosophy best fits your existence. Despite having a bit of a Stoic nature I think I fall into Epicurean school the most. It closely matches my philosophy of Adequacy. #epicurus #philosophy

It's portfolio day. I paint portraits of carpet and flooring from TV and movies, make tents, and weave reed screens, amongst a dozen other things like wood working, upholstering and bonsai gardening. #Portfolioday #twinpeaks #biglebowski #tents #Timurid #reedscreen.

Last of my weird object shaped pots has been bisque fired. I decided not to attempt to duplicate the design on the museum original, but no idea what's going on it instead. This will not fully tip over. Just lurches to the side. Drunk pot. #pottery
Bisque fired pot. Rounded belly with a flared lip, and a ridiculously tall and narrow foot.Pot will not fully tip over. Due to the tall yet narrow foot, and a round belly, it's only really capable of a sideways lurch.The original white mug from the met museum. Rounded belly and tall but narrow foot. Decorated with people on small horses riding around the belly.

Does the studio she goes to sell clay? Using their clay means its compatible with what they are putting in their kilns. Different clays have different firing ranges. Also do they offer firing services from stuff made outside studio? Go to the studio and ask them if you want to keep it a surprise.
