@Homer Potvin - do you know how to get videos from our phone uploaded here?

The site doesn't support video uploads. The best thing to do is upload it on YouTube as an unlisted video (so its only viewable by a link) and then share the link here.

I will always be amazed by YouTube's business model. They just let you upload anything you want, even if it will never make them a cent.

YouTube as an unlisted video

Thank you! It was easy. let's see if it works

 

[Louanne Learning]

It works! Good thing to know.

Is that deer in the background pregnant?

I thought recently how I might want to pursue psychology as a formal course of study. Did that informally for years and years, and there are reasons maybe why I wouldn't. On the fence.

pursue psychology

What questions especially tickle your fancy?

What questions especially tickle your fancy?

mental disorders
cognitive theory
broader societal mechanisms (Arguably sociology).

Though it's more of an all encompassing interest so doesn't really apply to a specific domain.

Spent most of the afternoon sorting through the results of not throwing out old research notes and story drafts often enough. Appears I have a problem with fabric scraps, too. Who knows when I might need a 3" x 18" strip of red cotton?

Chopin liked to write in weird keys (including several pieces in F#) because it made the keys conform more closely to the shape of the hand, unlike (e.g.) C major where the notes are all in a straight line even though your fingers... aren't.

That would make sense in his case, if something made it comfortable for him. Makes me want to ralph but I'm prob destined to be a middling piano player at best.

Ah, flamenco. My first concert was seeing Carlos Montoya when I was about sixteen. I had a record of his that I played incessantly, and wondered why the two guys that were playing with him weren't credited. The concert was where I found out that the other two guys didn't exist.

That's awesome.

The thread got me again. Last time I cheated and didn't post *smacks hand* I couldn't do it twice.

It's 17F/-8C outside and I'm eating ice cream.

Went to visit some family in New Haven today (my wife grew up there). It's often considered to be the best pizza city in the country and the origin story for everyone else's good pizza. The coal fired "apizza" migrated to NYC from there. We were talking about pizza in another thread and it made me think of that.

And, no, we didn't get any. You need to camp out before the sun rises to get near Pepe's or Modern on a Sunday.

Lots to catch up on, but nothing to post..

I guess the good news over the past couple of days is that I sold an ebook and paperback copy to some random people in the US.

Oh, and unforch I've been spending a lot of time clicking between CNN, BBC, Guardian, etc.

Progress was made on returning my studio to order. Yay, me.

I clicked upon this thread,
and so I now must post here --
though I've nothing to add
except, perhaps, a roast deer.

That rhyme was somewhat forced,
so I'll bid you a good night
before I am unhorsed--
unlike a rather lewd knight.

(Apologies for that double-alternating hexa/heptasyllabic quatrain. Just something I came up on the spur of the moment ... after sitting on something sharp). *G*

Gonna have a day in pajamas, writing...

 

[Schism]

Watching the Shrink Next Door. It's actually good. Plus, I'm a Paul Rudd fan.

 

[Louanne Learning]

I'm starting a new story, and I have some ideas for it, so that's always a good thing to at least have some notion of what you want to write

 

[CatrionaGrace]

Concentrating on bullsnakes and rattlesnakes today. Gotta interview a herpetologist or two.

 

[Louanne Learning]

I'm doing some time traveling in my story

 

[CatrionaGrace]

Just be back in time for dinner.
