That causes "white eye." :AH-HA_wink: Thanks for sharing.

Yes. It ruined a trip to Vancouver. Generally, one eye is worse. But, since we are restless, we will itch one eye and transmit it to the other. It could be viral or bacterial. (Dont' ask me how they could diagnose which is which). I took a risk and it went away in about 3 days. Still, it didn't look particularly good and it felt weird looking at the world through watery eyes. Still, I would NOT take the risk and you should get seen. I am not allergic to sulfa drugs; however, I experience hives if I take them and get sun. I'll never forget that one!

It was MY idea, K.C. "Trin"

Well, name your spot, PB. Even Chargerino did!

Speak for yourself, you perpetual horndog.

It could, but I'd be more willing to bet it means "from God" or "from the Lord." The O.C., you're such a HAM! Cute dog!

There is a little town in North Central California that I find really quaint. That would be Chico. About 3x a year, I'll grab a rental car and go there to do...well...nothing. I'll go to B&N, Starbucks, a movie, to eat (they've got some good little restaurants)....and sleep. Any towns, lonely beaches or rural places you retreat to?

What do you do for a living? My response to thread: English countryside

I knew SOMEONE would bring that up...you beat Balthy to it !

There are a lot of characters here (I'm excluding myself, of course...ehm...ehm). Seriously, there are a lot of interesting people here.

Have you read about the "denial" aspect of the whole thing. Some newspapers or news services report one thing and the Cuban government or his relatives say he is on the mend. Absurd. I'm hoping Cuba will be a democracy or some facsimile thereof within the next 5 to 20 years. I grew up in a predominately white neighborhood but the Hispanic faction that was there was largely Cuban as opposed to Mexican (and this is in LA, so that's kind of weird). So, I went to a Catholic school that had a lot of Cuban kids and a lot of my friends were Cuban. I would have to say my best childhood friend was Cuban. I would love to someday go over there and walk through the streets their parents walked, savoring the sights, sounds and smells. Cuban people are wonderfully theatrical and mercurial and I find them similar to Italians in this regard. They've also great a great spirit. Many had to flee Cuba in a hurry, leaving behind their properties and wealth, only to prosper again in the U.S. (I would venture to say Cubans have the highest educational attainment of the Hispanic peoples and are more apt to vote Republican). At any rate, the vacuum part Carbiz speaks of is tough. Being that it is essentially in the Americas and predominately Christian, I doubt that the upheval will look anything like we see in the Middle East. In the end, it will be a better place and, who knows, we might be able to vacation there someday.

Belfry e uma coisa como a Torre dos Clerigos no Porto, ou tamben as torres das campanhas numa igreja. My response to thread: noose

I take it the latter is Monteleone. On the other hand.... Some bad Italian names: Figarotta (broken vagina), Malatesta (headache or bad head), Finocchiaro (either fennel or something having to do with homosexuality), Storto (crooked - slang), Delle Femmine (of the women)...and on and on...

Was she attractive? Italian girls can look like their brothers minus the body hair...or watch out... Did most people know what that meant?

Happy birthday, Croc!
