    My first ever Cookies!

    Each of the 'shapes' were cooked seperately, but the thickness of the dough within each batch was hard to get the same - I tried! I hope to do better next time XD It was also a fan-asist oven, so I had to learn where to place the tray in it to keep things even - I ended up turning the tray every...

    In my previous post, I shared the cookies I made for the reunion/party - in this post, I share the Sunflower oil-painting I painted for my aunt for her birthday ^^ 7"x7" in oil-paint, took roughly two days (and a lot of getting paint everywhere!)

    My first ever Cookies!

    I made sugar cookies! I made a couple of trial runs first, as the finished product, were planned for a huge family reunion/birthday party, so I needed to make sure I could actually make the damn things... My first evar batch - Tuesday morning - went a little wrong, as I was not only making...

    'Laugh at religion?' Facebook discussion

    I have a habit of linking my atheist related news and blog articles on my facebook page, and this is a discussion that resulted from sharing the Pharyngula article: The Joke (Unrelated aside) The person I was discussing with is an ex and the whole thing served to make me remember why I find him...

    The Last Book You've read

    Hrm. I think I'll stick it out for as long as I can! If I end up getting as lost with it as you're suggesting I might, I'll let y'all know :)

    The Last Book You've read

    My brother and his fiance got me into the series, they're both up to date on the books, and they've said even with the new author (writing using Jordan's extensive notes) it's still going to be a damn good read. I don't think I'll give up on this series, like I did the George RR Martin series...

    The Last Book You've read

    I am currently reading: 'The Wheel of Time: The Eye of the World' book one of the series (which is about 12 books long so far!) by Robert Jordan. This is so far a fantastic epic along the same lines as Lord of the Rings, but without the throw-away, curly prose that can make LOTR laborious to...

His dad was also in the army, and both my mother's parent's were in the forces. One of my cousin's has gone into the army, as well. *'til...

    Evidence for acupuncture?

    The article is 3 years old, ish, but it is still relevant: Acupuncture and back pain: some interesting background references I find Ben Goldacre and 'Bad Science' to be one of the best and most accessible pseudoscience debunking resources. He speaks about Acupuncture in his book 'Bad...

    Sodahead - breeding ground of stoopid - Homophobic idiot

    As far as I can tell, in these sorts of instances at least, the whole belief is rooted in irrational fears or hatred, with absolutely no logic to them whatsoever. And you're right, they absolutely abhor having that pointed out to them. I'm guessing from his 'liberal' attack that he's a...

    Sodahead - breeding ground of stoopid - Homophobic idiot

    That's pretty much the level of argument on that website - I've had many, many, discussions that end up in the other person resorting to foul language, 'nanananana' and/or simply telling me they will no longer participate in the discussion. Sometime's I just have to laugh - but sometime's it...

    Sodahead - breeding ground of stoopid - Homophobic idiot

    Yeah, so I hang out on SodaHead from time to time (I tend to stick around for a couple weeks, arguing with the stoopids, until I get completely disheartened by them and begin to fear that the human race is made up of nothing but stoopids, so I leave for a month or so, before getting pulled back...
