Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

The first Earth Day that I remember was 1970. We had a newspaper drive. we collected tons of newspaper to recycle. I remember when computers became very popular. We were told that we would soon go to a paperless society. I don't think that has happened. In fact, I read somewhere that we have more paper being used. We are printing out a lot of paper. There is a fear of losing info. if we have a computer crash, so we print out stuff to save.

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

I don't think we'll ever go to a paperless society. We use paper as backup, plus some people print out every little thing they see.

We need to reduse our use of paper and reuse and recycle the paper we do use. Use both sides of the paper. It bugs me when I see people taking notes on only one side of the notebook paper. Would it really kill them to use the other side? Don't use a fresh sheet for each day. Start at the first blank spot after yesterday's notes. You'll save paper and it all be more compact. Think about it. The less paper you use, the less paper you buy, the less money you spend.

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

I have done that for ages, writing on both sides of paper for note taking. My problem is I print a lot of stuff when I don't need to.

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

Everyone spent Easter with family, then?

Good. However, belatedly:

HE IS RISEN!

I only don't do that (the printing stuff) because my ink's usually low and I rarely go buy more.

I went to church for both services since I am in the orchestra, had Easter dinner with my mom, dad, and sister, then went back to church for our evening service which was an Easter presentation. Then I came home and watched some reality television (I did catch an inning or two of baseball, but it started at 4PM and I had to be at the church at 4:45, so I missed most of it, darn it).

Wait, you didn't ask how we spent our Easter holiday. Oh, well, I told you anyway.

The bad part was my sister scheduled a private at 6PM claiming that she didn't know we were putting on an Easter presentation at church. First off, I've been telling her for the past few weeks. Second off, it's Easter! Don't schedule a private on Easter! (a private is private lessons--she's a dance coach).

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

With springtime, flowers blooming, birds flocking back, it is fitting that today is Audubon's 100something birthday.

Let's have a party outdoors to enjoy bird watching and hear them singing!!

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

Bird watching. Here's some pics of some birds I watched the other day. I was home alone and saw the most beautiful blue outside my window.

The pictures do not do the birds justice.

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

She hangs about in the Bookery rather a lot, now that most of the students there have her as one of our favorites instead of one we like to prank by hiding her left shoes.

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

Shall we have our own party to celebrate the Royal Wedding? Even Google got a special logo for today!


Let's sing, dance, eat and drink (the latter in moderation) to wish them a happier marriage than William's parents was.

Oh, and we have to have a photo of the kiss, don't we?


What do you all think of her dress? I thought it was beautiful. A lot better than some royal (or non-royal) wedding dresses that I've seen lately.

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

I just watched the d.v.d. of Harry Potter, Part one and I think Fleur looked pretty as a bride. I wish they showed Bill and Fleur kissing.

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

I love Kate's dress. It's plain yet not, you know what I mean? It's not too revealing. I'm not too much into the sleeveless dresses that have been in style.

Happy Mother's Day for those of you celebrating it in the US! In France we celebrate it in June.

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0

My mom saw the new Google logo. She likes it, but she thought it was because she'd used Google for a set amount of time or something. I told her Google changes their logo all the time for holidays and other special days.
