TROPHY CASE


  • Three-Year Club

This little guy was left on our porch...does anyone know what it is? by TheAlmightyMooin gardening

[–]hermana 1 point2 points ago

It's a pelargonium. They are in the same family as geraniums however.

If you're growing it indoors give it bright light and don't let it get bone dry. It's a nice color. The ones I usually see are either white or fire-engine red.

Tom! by actonesceneonein Music

[–]hermana 0 points1 point ago

I must apologize to you. I think that you're absolutely correct. The song was composed and played so in the style of Tom Waits that I'm afraid I assumed it was one of the (better) instrumental covers I'd heard. Now I'm even more impressed by it.

Thanks

86 Percent of E-Reader Owners Still Read Books in Print by 1500pushupsin books

[–]hermana 0 points1 point ago

When it comes down to it, I suppose I agree with you. But e-books and printed books are not mutually exclusive. There are some books (Bored of the Rings, The Oxford Book of English Poetry...) where I not only insist on a printed book, but must have a particular edition of that book to fully enjoy it. Yet, I do have a Kindle App on my Blackberry and use it frequently when I'm traveling or delayed by circumstances. It's nice to be able to carry ten or twenty books in my pocket.

Angie's List recently became the first major company to resume advertising on Rush Limbaugh's show after Limbaugh called Sandra Fluke a "slut" and a "prostitute." by cosin politics

[–]hermana 0 points1 point ago

We don't all think that. My husband has been a conservative Republican for all his adult years and he thinks that Limbaugh is a monumental horse's ass.

(I'm the idiot liberal and even I don't think that Limbaugh is representative of Republican party.)

There are a few (or more) instrumental covers of Waits' songs. I think this is fine. I may rip the audio, though I wish the quality was a bit better.

I loved Tom's keyboard years. Especially the intro to 'Christmas Card from a Hooker...'

Tom Waits makes you feel like you're related to him. I lean against his voice like it warm pillar of granite!

Ladies, quell or confirm my fears- I've found a tiny bump. by quit_it_crispyin TwoXChromosomes

I know. I read that. A diagnosis of HPV is improbable. But people can indulge in all sorts of sexual activity while technically remaining virgins.

23 y/o with moderate abdominal pain 2 days running, and other noticeable symptoms, help me reddit! by SonnyAndersonin Health

[–]hermana 1 point2 points ago

Is the pain on the right side? If you press firmly on the area and then suddenly release does the pain increase? If so, you may have appendicitis. Also, it could be some kind of bowel obstruction. In any case, see a Doc. Abdominal pain should be taken seriously.

I certainly would. I've already given up cod. And I'm Portuguese!

Why is it that when you put batteries in something, like a remote, do you put the batteries in alternating fashion? by MrTizzoin AskReddit

"T", on the assumption that a lot of songs start with the word 'The'. ('The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down', 'The Weight', "The Ghost of Saturday Night', 'The Girl from Ipanema'...

So do I. It's not very different from hearing other mobs of people chanting 'Allahu Akbar' or 'Death to the Infidels'.

I'm feeling kind of sorry for that cat. Was it a stray?

Reddit, what was your most unfairly downvoted (not trolling) comment? by [deleted]in AskReddit

[–]hermana -2 points-1 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I've never intentionally made a trolling-type comment, but I've gotten my share of downvotes. I imagine that was because my comment or opinion was unpopular.

I don't know why it's such a big, damned deal. So we get a few downvotes,; is that the end of the world? Are our egos so fragile that they can be popped by a couple of downvotes?
