Good morning! Well, my computer is holding at the moment, so I'm venturing a few replies while I can.... Borrowed from Wiki - I googled "sinister handed" and Google's first suggestion was Left-handedness - Wikipedia. ;) "There are many colloquial terms used to refer to a left-handed person, e.g. "southpaw" or "goofy". Some are just slang or jargon words, while other references may be offensive or demeaning, either in context or in origin (e.g. the British "cack-handed"). In more technical contexts, 'sinistral' may be used in place of 'left-handed' and 'sinistrality' in place of 'left-handedness'. Both of these technical terms derive from sinestra, a Latin word meaning 'left'.[6]" "Meanwhile, the English word sinister comes from the Latin word sinestra, which originally meant "left" but took on meanings of "evil" or "unlucky" by the Classical Latin era. Alternatively, sinister comes from the Latin word sinus meaning "pocket": a traditional Roman toga had only one pocket, located on the left side for the convenience of a right-handed wearer.[citation needed] The contemporary Italian word sinistra has both meanings of sinister and left (the masculine adjective for sinister being sinistro). The Spanish siniestra has both, too, although the 'left' meaning is less common and is usually expressed by izquierda,[11] a Basque word that made its way into Portuguese too. In Portuguese, the most common word for left-handed person, canhoto, was once used to identify the devil, and canhestro, a related word, means "clumsy" (sinistro means only "sinister"). Furthermore, in English, the expression "To have two left feet" refers to clumsiness in the domains of football or dancing." See ya'll elsewhere....! Josh

happycamper, Of course it is always easy to spend other peoples money, but I would just encourage you to thoroughly consider the models one step up (BX-23/24, JD 2305). The reason I say this, is that it would be awful for you to have gone to this expense, and then to have you wishing two years down the road you had gone a few more thousand for more capabilities. While I'm not familar enough with the BX18s power on slopes, I would want to at least test drive it on your property. I would also want you to be sure you are comfortable with the ergonomics; afterall, you will want to live with your decision for conceivably some time. If you are set on the Kubotas, at least pay attention to the 3PH (Cat-1 pins but really Cat-0 arms), this means you will probably have to reverse the pins inward on standard sized implements (not a show stopper by any means, but at least be sure you understand what this means). Happy hunting! Cheers JDFANATIC

Arid, I don't have a clue what that red one is! Did you notice the same one sitting on the chair.It was a piece that broke off and i laid it on that chair and next thing i know it's in bud as well,so i left it there.There is no soil or anything with it,but i'm about to change that.The big one is in some sphagum moss and a little soil. PG,i've had that tillie for several years,it outgrew the original container i had it in,so i put it in that coconut basket,and it just took off.I put our banana peels on all my tillies and staghorn ferns.I like the way it formed around the basket.I must take time to google them and see what their names are. Microthrix,that kalanchoe is called fang something,i think,or maybe it's something fang.I just remember fang is in the name. My brain is old and i can't remember the names of a lot of things i have.LOL,LOL Planto,that fern i inherited about 10 or so years ago from a friend,they had bought this house that belonged to an old lady and her GK's were going to throw all the plants away,so my friend told them to just leave them and they would take care or dispose of them.Then they decided they didn't want them,so since we were friends and they knew both dh and i loved plants they let us take whatever we wanted.So i got that fern,and some cymbidium orchids and a few other plants.Someone offered me 300.00 for that staghorn(the big one)I politely said,thanks,but no thanks. Glad you all enjoyed my plants. Kathi

ya know sometimes i think where i live has a lot to do with my plants and flowers.I live along the coast in S.calif,and we always get the ocean breeze coming off the ocean,across the canyon etc.I say that because i really don't do anything special to any of them,don't use special soils,but i do add some perlite to what ever i do use especially with the cactus and succulents.I don't spend a lot of time worrying about bugs and critters,if i see them i take action at the time,mostly with a blast from the hose, soapy water or alcohol,don't use a lot of harsh chemicals etc. I generally walk around the yard everyday checking things out, as i grow a lot of annuals,perinnials etc,and somethings need deadheading most days. During the past few weeks i havn't been able to go out until late afternoons/evening as it's been unbearably hot and humid here, If any of you are interested in seeing my other plants and gardens,you can go to the cottage garden forum,lots of pictures there,also have some in Calif gardening,however that site is not as active as it should be.My name is the same all over this G.W. forums site.So feel free to go look and see what i have and what i grow,which is a little of everything. Thank you all for stopping by,and i'm so glad you enjoy the views. Stush,i'll send you another piece of that plant when it goes dormant.It has another bloom open today and still more to come.Stay tuned!!! Kathi

Todays forecast for New Orleans:
STORM WARNING IN EFFECT TODAY
Purple Reign expected to flood New Orleans late this afternoon and into the evening. Insignificant Brees should have no impact on tailgating enjoyment.

I think it's really dumb they are playing in the Pro Bowl BEFORE the Superbowl this year.

I would really like to see the Vikings and the Colts in the Superbowl. What a game that would be. Manning Vs. Favre. On the other hand the Jets have a really talented (young) QB out of USC that is hard not to root for. The Saints have had such an amazing season, it's tough to not want them to go all the way.

Doesn't look like the Colts defense have shown up today...

I'm surprised that the Pro Bowl is before the SB. There won't be any players from the SB teams so they won't get hurt. What a lame idea.
cynic
14 years ago
LOL jamie_la, sad to say it but I do think you're right. I'm just hoping it'll be a good game. If both teams are playing like they should it should be a great match-up. Two good teams. Let's get it on.

I won't say much more... for now. The Dullas Cobwebs, er, Dallas Cowboys found out what can happen when you spend the week with your mouths writing checks your butts can't cash!

Of course I'm rooting for the Vikes. But if this is the end of the road this year, they did well (and the crap over a new stadium should end). I'm still warm all over after the spanking they gave the "boys", though I'd have been happier if they had rubbed their noses in it a little more. I still haven't forgiven that franchise for Drew Pearson pushing off on Nate Wright. About the only grudge I hold! :D

And who IS the drunken buffoon that decided to put the Pro-Bowl before the Super Bowl? Probably thought they'd get more viewers, for more revenue. There you go. In theory, you keep many of the best players out of it. It's always a boring game anyway.

And I'm still moping over Seattle not doing any better.... Well, the cliche is there's always next year!

Hey Ron, if the Vikes should lose, and yeah, it could happen... it COULD happen... and a southerner COULD put together a coherent sentence too! Like "Who dat?". But if the Ain'ts beat the Vikes, I'll go half with you and we'll send them a case of microwave Lutefisk, OK? :)

Better yet, an English tutor??? :D

I can't take credit for the above post, it was a copy and paste from a Facebook friend.
Those southeners wouldn't know what to do with an English tutor. I'll never forget my first visit to my cousins in Texas. (I was 18) My cousins looked at me and said, "Y'all talk just like the man on the radio."

I like the lutefisk idea. But, they would probably flush it down the toilet, it would show up in some waste treatment plant, and then the EPA would get called in for a toxic waste cleanup. I'm liking the idea better all the time!
