Winter - I like the cold - No mosquito's and I can sleep a lot better! Although I have to add that South African winters are not that cold - average winter temperature here is about 17 or 18 degrees C...

8th grade ... 'that time' started unbeknownst to me, and when I got up (wearing a light blue skirt) there was blood everywhere!
I was mortified!! 8th grade, in front of all the BOYS in the class, as well as the girls!! I wanted to just crawl away and never come back! Never forgot it (obviously) and it still makes me shudder to think of it......

Will you immigrate?
CaptainQuark
May 17 2007, 06:30 AM
More than likely. My parents have been on at me for years to move to Australia, but I still have a dream to return to a peaceful, stable, prosperous country in Southern Africa. That rules out Zimbabwe, then!

Maybe Botswana or SA.
Do you use iTunes?

Are you happy with the situation in your country right now?
CaptainQuark
May 17 2007, 02:21 PM
No. Economic growth is the benchmark by which successive British government measure their performance, but not hought is given to the happiness of the people! Whereas we may be one of the most affluent countries in the world, a recent survey suggested that British kids are among the most miserable on the planet!

How old were you when you got your first bird?
jobo2mi
May 17 2007, 07:11 PM
Not till I was about 40 (I think) Got a little budgie from the local grocery and he just stole my heart........from there I went to a tiel from a breeder, then two tiels, then NO birds for awhile, but found I really NEEDED to have birds in my life......so back to a tiel, then two, then a budgie and tiels, then the QPs and other 'throwaway' birds came my way

.........now I have 8 fids, most are ok, one BITES and plucks, and I am looking for #9 (a caique) but don't really have the room.....will MAKE room for a nice little caique, tho

newly unattached, and VERY nice

, problem was I have KIDS older than him ... Darn

But believe me, I thought about asking him for dinner ... lol
What is the worst job you have ever had?
CaptainQuark
May 18 2007, 05:56 AM
When I was 18, Rhodesia had just become Zimbabwe, but they hadn't quite got round to abolishing National Service. My father refused to let me join the 'enemy army', so he shipped me off to the UK. Some friends of ours that we had known from some years before when we lived in Zambia ran a plastic recycling business in Bradford, so I got a job with them. I started at 11pm and spent the next 8 hours scraping sheep sh1t and tufts of old smelly wool off the plastic sheeting that had wrapped newly shorn fleeces to send them off for processing, and shove it all into a baler. It kept the wolf from the door...
What's the best job you ever had?
Dark Angel
May 18 2007, 09:29 AM
It probably wasnt the best paying job but the most fun job I ever had was working as a photographer and photofinisher at a photo studio during my college years. The hours were flexable and it wasnt hard work and it was alot better than what everyone else was doing ie flipping burgers.
If you could change something about yourself what would it be?
jobo2mi
May 18 2007, 04:44 PM
Besides the obvious weight issue that most women have ... it would be my procrastination habit ... I usually run late to everything (usually only 5 or 10 minutes) because I am always putting off till the last minute the things that HAVE to get done ... and yet when I went on vacation, I planned almost everything over a 6 month period .... go figure
