An Introduction

Welcome to the world of Free Thinking and Contributive Debate! Here, you will be able to contribute to the articles and conversations that will take place.  I will cover topics that I feel need to be covered, as well as topics that have been contributed. Regular contributors may be granted Author status at a later point in time and be allowed to post their own articles here.

Have a topic you want covered?  Message me!  Let me know what you want me to cover!

Update on comments

Okay, so I was wrong... Apparently being a member does not automatically allow you to post comments without review. Spidermonkey made a comment earlier and I still  had to approve it, so weather or not you are a member, it still requires me to accept the new comment. At least we should be able to keep the spammers off this way. I am generally able to tell who the spammers are, too... Multiple names, from the same ip address, and the same trackback link are *usuall* spammers, and will be deleted. If I am not sure... I may hold the comment in limbo until I know for certain.

Knives are Sharp!

So, Saturday evening after I finished some major progress with pre-spring cleaning I went to make myself some dinner. Some nice veggies and talapia! Apparently it was just not to be. While opening the package of Talapia (Individual package from store) I slipped and managed to cut a flap of my left index finger. about .4cm deep and .8cm or so in diameter. Luckily someone was able to take me to the emergency room a few miles away.

I waited there for almost 2 hrs between waiting for pain killers and such to kick in so they could glue the flap of skin back together. I love the glue that they used.. it made like a little shell around the area.

Well, after a while the pain killer wore off and I started to feel the throbbing. Ouch! Based on what I have read, it will take about 2 months for this to heal with any degree of normality. Bleh!

Typing is slow, so for my readers, I will try to get updates to you on regular basis, but literally I am only able to type with my pinkie and ring finger on my left hand right now.

This is a good reminder to everyone to have respect for Knives and take the necessary precautions when using them.

Dealing with Coffee Spills

Coffee Spill Cleanup

A coffee spill is one of those things that generally spur a similar reaction. Absorb as much of it as possible before it has time to settle in. This is a completely rational reaction. Some scour the Internet looking for home remedies while others react by pouring on the first product they can think of that might work. Sometimes a home remedy will work and other times it will only compound it, making it worse.
