exhausted after past 5 inhumane days at work
2. What are 3 things/news everyone should be told about today?

1. It's Friday! At last!
2. Producing 1 ton of paper from a freshly cut trees causes decapitation of 10 to 18 trees, consumption of 7600 KW of energy, and pollution of 440000,00 liters of fresh water! So be careful what you print :)
3. In a minute I'm going to have a cup of nice green jasmine tea (CNN live broadcast of my sipping starts in 15 minutes)
:)

Today? Ella Fitzgerald, tomorrow maybe Led Zeppelin or RHCP
4. Whats your flavour? Be it how you taste or your favourite mix of tastes

In cuisine my favorite mix of tastes is mediterranean or oriental.

Besides cuisine I don't have any favorites tastes (i usualy don't like having favorites of any kind. It narrows the horizon,I guess). I just have some I really dislike
5. Why did the duck cross the road?
Because it was a kamikaze duck

May the Lord (of any religion) bless you all with a great weekend!

Hmm...impromptu: Don't smoke. Be generous (not necessarily about money when you can't). Ask for help if you don't know what to do.

I forgot her name. The maid who worked in the home of some childhood friends. The kitchen looks like ground zero. I remember she used to sing a lot.
4. Whats your flavour? Be it how you taste or your favourite mix
I probably taste like olive oil. It's presently being stored on my stomach.
5. Why did the duck cross the road?
She's meeting Tiffany and Amber at a club. They're hard-living, bad-ass hip-hop credit card girls from the suburbs. But when she's knocked down in the street by a cab. "Mommy!" "Call my mommy!"

Just looking forward to the Spring.

2. What are 3 things/news everyone should be told about today?
- The most successful propaganda ever in the world is the anti-smoking campaign.
- Most of what we have been led to believe about smoking is exaggerated or just plain false!
- Anyone who genuinely wants to get to the truth of the matter should start by reading this Article by Joe Jackson http://www.joejackson.com/pdf/5smokingpdf_jj_smoke_lie...

3. If you could choose anyone alive or dead, what band or artist would you like to perform at your place?
It could be a number of friends who work as DJs – some of whom have already performed at private parties at my place.

4. What’s your flavour? Be it how you taste or your favourite mix of tastes
Liquorice

5. Why did the duck cross the road?
To chase the drake for goodness sake,
Beyond the road they found a toad.
The chicken was there by mistake

Kevin D'Arcy:
should start by reading this Article by Joe Jackson http://www.joejackson.com/pdf/5smokingpdf_jj_smoke_lie...
I don't think it's conducive to the fun spirit of F4F to be ferocious against points we write in it.

So: That's a more intelligent paper than I thought it would be (if I can say so while not being the sharpest knife in the drawer myslef). :)

Still, smoking, in general, is probably hard on a brutha, and secondarily so on others sharing confined spaces with a smoker.Joj Y. edytował(a) ten post dnia 22.02.10 o godzinie 20:14

Temat: FFF 19.02.2010

Dear Joj,

Although I remember reading and very much enjoying your comments about the bad-ass, hip-hop credit card girls, somehow I completely missed your comment about smoking. So please don’t take my different position personally.

Anyway, I’m glad you took the time to read and enjoy Jackson’s article – personally, I don’t think he takes the issue far enough and there is a lot of other literature available, which I hope to contribute to. Feel free to contact me personally if you would like to discuss it further.
Either way I look forward to your responses to other questions on the forum.

Cheers,

Kevin, I would commend your stance on smoking.

Of course it is dangerous, but the passive smoking issue is greatly exaggerated.warren whitmore edytował(a) ten post dnia 23.02.10 o godzinie 23:31
