Good Morning CoffeeHouse! Looks like I am gonna spend my dad shopping for a new tractor. The one I have is worn out and either needs to be rebuilt or replaced! I dont have time to rebuild it so a new is my best bet! Hope everyone slept well and are having a good morning! Check out the pic I attached I found this flower yesteday mowing. I have no Idea where it came form or what it is but it is beautiful! Does anyone know what it is?
So, yeah, I'm going to Washington D.C. tonight! Before that, however, I have an appointment to set up my VideoPhone at work, (using my brand-new snazzy TV.. I'm excited!!) then a conference call (via VP, whee!) then focusing on work most of the day... Oh, and I'm planning on making sandwiches during my lunch break today so that I will have food for the trip.......................................and crap. I forgot ziploc bags. Dammit. I KNEW I was forgetting something! Lol... Don't you hate it when that happens? You have just about EVERYTHING... then you get out the door and realize... "Oh. Crap."
So anyway, workin' hard today until about 4ish, my boss will take me to the bank on the way home, then go to an arts and crafts fair thingie with my boss to get some ideas for marketing my mom's new business, as well as scoping out another group of potential clients.. should be fun After that, around 5pm, my boss will take me to the airport, where I'll check in, then wait until 6:15, fly to Baltimore, MD where I will, either meet Starr or have her tell me where to go Then tomorrow morning, prerelease!! Then somehow getting from College Park, MD to downtown D.C. to Gallaudet University at some point in the afternoon, hanging around, spending time until I figure out somehow to get BACK to Baltimore Maryland.. depending on the metro schedule and whatnot... then Sunday, most likely either hanging around with Snoop, playing Magic (and maybe fishing?) or just sightseeing around D.C. before about 5:45 or so when I have to be at the bus station (6:40 is departure so about an hour ahead?) when it leaves at 6:40 and I will hopefully sleep until 3am, when I have to switch buses in Syracuse.. finally arriving to Rochester at 5am, when I will take a cab to work. The all-night bus thing isn't going to be too fun but it was cheaper, and soo yeah.
Anyway, I should go, check up on other threads here, and actually poke my head into the IRC chat and see if anybody is still there this time of morning (or evening for some of you.... *raises eyebrows at Stuff *
Anyway.... Have a good day folks, I'll try to poke my head in and say hi before I leave tonight... I'll probably call Alacar or James on the anniversary of the CoffeeHouse to relay a message
Wow sounds like a well planned...busy trip! I hope everything goes smoothly!:D FISHING? now you are talking my hillbilly language!;) If you get to go fishing take some pictures if you can. I would love to see some of my CoffeeHouse pals fishing!
I am so jealous..... I want to go to the prerelease so bad! Looks like I am not gonna get to go again. Doesnt look like my son is gonna be going either. He said he has spent all his money except 10 bucks in his pocket and his savings acount. I told him hes not allowed to pull money out of savings cause that is for his car and insurance and stuff. He has blown his allowance for 3 weeks running on Air-Soft equipment! I had told him I would match what he planned to spend but ya cant play anything at our prerelease for $20.00. My brother just had surgery 10 days ago and he is gonna head out at 5 in the morning to get to Nashville on time! Thats dedication now!!
@Charm Master
I heard about that this morning. Glad ya made it thru OK. They said on the news people said they could feel it all the way down here in TN. Must have been a big one!
@CM: 5.4? Thats pretty hardcore. I'm surprised you didn't feel it. We had a 3.9 here about a month ago and everyone had a massive freak out about it. Granted I am in New York so earthquakes are pretty uncommon.
@Hippy: That is a really beautiful flower. I have no idea what it is either, as I'm not a botanist, but I'm sure you could find out easy enough.
In class, as usual. But only really poking in today. I actually have to work on some animating this lovely spring morning. Wish I wasn't in class.
@Hippy: That is a really beautiful flower. I have no idea what it is either, as I'm not a botanist, but I'm sure you could find out easy enough.
I sure thought it was. I have been looking for a little bit this morning but aint had no luck yet. Found several that look like it but they arent suppose to be growing in my region! I will keep looking though . Thanks.

You should take it to your local flower shop if there is one nearby. I'm sure they could point you in the right direction.
Well everybody I reckon I need to get something accomplished today. Go look at some tractors and maybe try to finish that floor up. Cant let a beautiful day like today go unenjoyed! Hope everyone has a productive day. Good day CoffeeHouse!

yeah, I've got to mow the lawn and get other things taken care of...
about the earthquake, I do remember hearing my door rattle in its hinges quite a bit during the night...that's probably as much as I got.
here's hoping I finally get my magic rewards cards pretty soon. looking forward to trading the foil damnation (it's of little use to me and I've got much bigger wants in mind).
also, for the store's may legacy tournament, I'm thinking of a deck looking something like this. It'll be janky as all get-out, but I've got nothing better and I'm not planning on spending much money on it.
since I'm betting most of the people are just going to be running teched out extended decks, I'm preparing for mostly TEPS and dredge.
any cheap ideas? the plan is pinging for a ton while countering lots of stuff. spell burst is the big card for the deck, even if it's late to come online. (memory lapse and cancel are for the early game, spell burst once I've got tron out.)

Hello everyone I just got up not too long ago. I am probably going to go study for a little while then go get ready for work. I will talk to you all later though. Have a good day everyone and looks like today is a nice day for me too.

Its Chinese wisteria, and it's considered a Pest plant where you find it in the wild in the US. It chokes out underbrush and can pull down a 2-inch sapling over a single summer's growth. It's also poisonous to birds and even fish in streams where its leaves and dead vines fall in the water.
Make sure it's not Appalacian wisteria before deciding to rip it out or do something about it. Wisteria frutescens is native to the region and lookalike plant but if you have any questions you can call the Great Smoky Mountains National Park folks and they'll tell you what to do about it, if anything.
IIRC, the American wisteria's blossom clusters are tighter and rounder, not droopy and tapering like your pic.
Also another point about solidarity and that is I don't really see it being on par with the other combo decks in the format like iggy pop and fetchland tendrils. Mainly because solidarity can not abuse the utility advantage from Lion's eye diamond while iggy pop and fetchland tendrils can. Also ichorid is a much more viable deck then solidarity as well considering it can be alot less vulnerable to hate in the metagame especially played by an experienced ichorid player.
It is my opinion that I think Ichorid is the best combo deck in the format and not just because of how fast it can be but rather it has an pretty high resilient value towards hate and it's probably the most consistent.
Anyway I think thats it for my gibberish legacy talk. I have to get ready for work in like 2 hours from now. I wish you all a good day and probably wish you all an productive day as well. See you all soon.
I'm leaving to go to an arts fair thingie in about half an hour to an hour, then its OFF to Washington D.C., so I need to focus on my work.. I'm gonna pop my head into the IRC chat before I leave, but I do want to say, HAPPY EARLY ANNIVERSARY COFFEEHOUSE!!!!
I just found out I have lung cancer (second hand smoke), and its a pretty advanced state of it too. I will pull through though, I'm to stubbern to lose to a disease.

That is not dead which can eternal lie. And with strange eons even death may die.
Wow.. just.. wow. I'd hate to do it, but I am seriously giving the evil eye to all the smokers in the Coffeehouse. That habit gave VSA freaking lung cancer!
That being said, take care VSA; I know you can overcome it!
ouch...not good. I really hope you get through it.
IIRC lung cancer caused by second hand smoke has a much lower fatality rate than firsthand (I think the fatality rate is a quarter what the firsthand smoke-induced cancer, which IIRC isn't that high to begin with.)

In what universe? If you build a deck like that, and ever draw that hand, I will personally come to wherever you live, perform complicated acts of awestruck ********, then disembowel myself to escape the world that allowed something like to to occur and validate you.
VSA, I'm sorry to hear about that. You are young and it is from 2nd hand smoke, so you have a good shot of pulling through and/or getting a transplant should it become necessary. I wish you the best.
Goodevening CoffeeHouse! Been a busy but unproductive day here. Ran all over town looking at tractors. Only to decide to bite the bullet and just go into debt for a new one. I am a pretty good gasoline engine mechanic, however I know nothing about diesels and I want a diesel tractor as all I have heard is how they are stronger and last longer. So now I reckon I am gonn have to take a day and go to some of the local tractor shops and find a new one! I just dread spending that kinda money. Spending $3,000.00 on a used one is bad enuff but spending upward of $6,000.00 on a new send chills up my spine. ANyway hope everyone has had a productive day! Gonna poot around the forums for a while. Holler back later!

Wow that is cool thank you so much. I had been told there was wisteria here but it didnt bloom last year so I just assumed I had cut it down by mistake! I had never seen anything like it before. I sure do appreciate you taking the time to find it. I spent some time on it this morning to no avail. Thanks a bunch!

OMG!:o
<---Crushes out his cigarette!
Damn VSA I am so sorry to hear that! As a smoker I feel twice as bad! I truly hope ya pull thru ok, and as others have said any time ya need someone to talk to, Feel free! I would be glad to be of any support I can.

Are you going to do something to treat your lung cancer VSA? I imagine itll cost quite a bit of money though. But yes I too hope you get through this and best wishes to you VSA as well.
Anyway I just wanted to stop by just got back from an 8 hour shift actually. Probably going to take a shower and get ready for bed here in a bit. See you all soon though. Have a goodnight everyone.
Love,
Cecilia

Morning coffeehouse. Today's already a good day. I woke up to the news that we're having barbecued ribs on the grill today. MMmm, barbecue...
I'm starting to work on a new avatar now, but it'll take time to finish. Inspiration and all that :-D
That is a beautiful flower, Hippy, too bad I don't have a flippin' clue what it is...
