    Morning. Songbirds out in force for the first time this week scratching for breakfast, squabbling when they find it and calling out the sun from behind leaden grey clouds :)

    is an apocalypse different from an armageddon?

    An apocalypse is more general (literally un-covering or revelation), while armageddon more specifically means the site of the battle between good and evil. So armageddon might be part of an apocalypse.

    Didn't realise before that the murky grey sky before was actually an apartment block on fire a kilometre or so away, we got messages telling us to stay indoors cos there is asbestos in the smoke gah too late :lol:

    Oh, no! I hope you didn't breath any in.

    I think I read that there is a certain amount of that in the ground naturally, at such a low level that it's nothing to be concerned about. Same for arsenic and anthrax. What a dangerous world, even if you do nothing and keep to yourself!

    Nah, 200-300 years ago you would only have had chilli (gosh! exotic herb!) once or twice a year, when the travelling peddlars came around... and then if you felt awful afterwards, drowned it in small beer, or wore something red, or threw salt over your shoulder, or went to the priest to be exorcised, or something equally soothing ;-).

    Or a barber surgeon could put leeches on you or open a vein to make you all better.

    ...late Wotan's Day complaints.

    --Spent 5$ in bus fare and the time to go out and pick up my cheque only to be told it woldn't be ready until Friday even though HR told me I could pick it up today.
    --Rained on me several times, icy cold rain as well.

    Non Complaints:

    --Got everything squared away with the bank and all the overdraft charges have now been credited back to my account.
    --Royals swept the Orioles 4 - 0 to advance to the World Series.
    --Giant's came back to beat the Cardinals 6 - 4 to go up 3 - 1 in the series. One more win to make it to the "big game"


    Secondary complaint:

    --Tired of fixing typos caused by misfiring characters from the keyboard.

    Hmmm I ask for a trenta water but got a venti water. I did get a frap so I ain't cheap but I want water to off set my trap. Probably should have gotten ice coffee instead of a trap because the scale at the doctor's office was not my friend Tuesday. The number it said was too high for my taste.
    Darn it I cannot post this.

    Really! That stuff's been there for at least a week! There were a few other things added, then they went away. But these remained.
