Why Are Androgynes of Such a Mild Temperament?

[Seshatneferw]

Ah, but 12 has more factors: 2,3,4 and 6.
10 has just 2 and 5.

True, in some senses 12 is a better base than 10. So why do you keep switching all the time? I mean, all right, 12 inches to a foot makes sense, but why then 3 feet to a yard, 220 yards to a furlong, 8 furlongs to a mile and 3 miles to a league? And that's only length... >

Or 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0011 1110 1000 for you all you binary people.

But there aren't any binary people around here, are there? <_< 

LOL

This androgyne isn't great at math, so I'll just zone out from this thread for a while

Oy vey. My eyes just went all cross-eyed after that. I so like my metric!!!

Hmmmmm what are we calculating here anyway, the new coordinates for launching a starship? Or the reconstruction of the Quantum Level Puddle Jumper.

not sure at all cindy iam just left feeling very very blond and very lost  after reading all this tho 

[Jaimey]

I'm gonna cry.  Stop with all that math nonsense!  I'm not in school anymore!!!!!   


I would just like to say that something like 95% of the world's bourbon is made here in KY.  So you all need to come down here and visit me so you can get some (bourbon, that is, you dirty minded w****s...heh.  at least I didn't say that word that rhymes with 'keeps').

On St. Patty's Day, I tried some bourbon beer.  Yeah.  There you go.


*leaves bourbon on the porch to attract androgynes*

[Pica Pica]

So you live in a place you refer to as KY an you don't want me thinking dirty thoughts?

Bourbon beer? Where, in the names of the gods, did you get that stuff? Are there any brews you'd recommend?

some bourbon and KY will take care of those thoughts for you.

Oddly enough, a lot of it is made in dry counties, so you can make it, but not drink it.

[Pica Pica]

maybe i was too subtle...

WHERE IS KY? WHAT DOES IT STAND FOR? I DON'T LIVE IN SODDING LN DO I? ELUCIDATE BABY ELUCIDATE.

[Constance]

KY = Kentucky

[Pica Pica]

cheers, where the chicken comes from. I just thought I'd be unmild for a bit... I'm not even starting with Cindy's BC.

isn't BC British Columbia?


Since you associate Kentucky with chickens, you probably won't be receiving any friendly visits from Daniel Boone

[cindybc]

Yep BC=British Columbia and I associate with anyone who wants to associate. I'll indulge anyone in a chin wag. I'll even engage in a conversation with a fence post if there is no one else to talk to. Only one thing wrong the don't answer my questions to well, maybe I'll try the utility pole.

Boone is here in Missouri, (yes, he was in other places too).

That name is all over the damn place. You cannot go anywhere around here without seeing it. The house is pretty cool though.
Actually, I think my house is on former Boone land, or very close to it. It used to be a tobacco farm up until the Civil War. The neighbors across the street live in the former slaves quarters.  There is even an old family graveyard in the back corner of the property from back then.

[RebeccaFog]

yeah, I remember reading that Boone was everywhere.


Must have been nice.  Just pick up and move.  No driver's license or birth certificate and crap like that.


wait a minute.  I thought you were in Mass, not Missouri.

You got me mixed with someone else, but it is really not that hard to pick up and go Rebis (If I remember right you have thought about it).

I would argue it is easier to move these days than back then. It is safer and faster to travel, and you can find work and housing before you leave. Heck you can do all of it in mere days before you leave, or take a vacation to arrange things before hand. Sure there are more laws to navigate, but they are fewer than and not as difficult as you may think. I have changed states 4 times on my own, and an handful of times in the military. None were difficult.

Don't let the little things hold you down. Paperwork like licenses and birth certificates are not an issue. Only your mind is, I am far from a world traveler and I did it.

D'nal Boone (closer to the way they pronounced it) just didn't like it when anyone got to live within a few miles of his house, so he kept moving.  One of the people who pioneered the way through the Cumberland Gap so the people from the East Coast could move to KY, he ended up cross the Mississippi, in Boone's Lick I think.

And, the number one maker of bourbon, Jack Daniel's Distillery, (Which has the #1 U.S Government permit to distill whiskey, in 1866) is located in Lynchburg, a place where it can't be sold.  Odd.  But Lynchburg is in Tennessee, not Kentucky, given that, I doubt that KY makes 95% as I bet the market share of all JD products is above 5%.

Psst, tekla.. read the label on the bottle before you drink it! 
Jack Daniel's makes whiskey, but not bourbon. Jack Daniel's produces Tennessee Whiskey, a sour mash whiskey similar to but more refined than bourbon whiskey. Tennessee Whiskey was officially recognized as a unique style of whiskey by the US government in 1941. Jack Daniel's is the larger of the two currently existing Tennessee Whiskey distillers (George Dickel is the other one). The Jack Daniel's Distillery is located near the small town of Lynchburg Tennessee in Moore County... a county which does prohibit the sale of liquor, as do several other counties within the state. However in 1995, Tennessee law provided an exception to country law... a distillery within a 'dry' county is permitted to sell a commemorative alcohol product within the county, regardless of county statutes. Jack Daniel's can be legally purchased where it is manufactured.
