Raithe Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Doing the final run through of luggage and checking its weight, along with all the updates and last minute tweaks to the aging and creaking laptop before I leave manana for the airport.

Rosbjerg Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 That sucks, sorry to hear man.

Rosbjerg Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 What type of company is it? It's an event bureau of sorts. We want to do tours for costumers coming in to Copenhagen showing entrepreneurial companies and start up environments. An alternative to the standard sight etc that get boring if you've been here on business before and is ready to see and meet some of the locals. Interestingly it's completely different from what I had envisioned myself doing, but I got hijacked into it by the producer of that "kissing for charity" video I shared with you guys earlier this year.. and well, life often goes in strange directions 2 Fortune favors the bald.

Labadal Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 It's that part of the year when finding any sort of joy is hard to find. I hate rain and snow so much. Tough times at work. Stock market is shaky and I declined to try out the whole real estate thing I was talking about some time ago. I have also felt rusty the last few days. I need a vacation.

AGX-17 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) It's that part of the year when finding any sort of joy is hard to find. I hate rain and snow so much. Tough times at work. Stock market is shaky and I declined to try out the whole real estate thing I was talking about some time ago. I have also felt rusty the last few days. I need a vacation. I'd recommend Zion, personally. Unless you're afraid of heights or not sure-footed. I confirmed that I am close to Bighorner-status in footwork when scrambling up the Canyon Overlook and Angels' Landing trails. Incidentally, there is nothing legally disclosable between Vegas and St. George, UT, so fill up that gas tank. My aunt died two days ago and I'm swamped at school... Not much else to report. I have a lot of aunts and there is a specific one whose death I would not mourn. And I have Al-Jebr homework to do.

That's true, when was the last time some guy bought you a shooter at a bar just because he is being friendly ?

BruceVC Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 That's true, when was the last time some guy bought you a shooter at a bar just because he is being friendly Never. That's the normal experience , but I really am different in that respect and I have met some really interesting guys just from offering them a drink. And there is no risk of them thinking "I'm actually hitting on them " because I normally do this in places like Hooters We know guys buy ladies drinks but for me lets say I meet a lady at a bar and she has a guy friend. I make sure I offer him a drink and include him in the conversation, because I ask myself "how would I like to feel if the roles were reversed " In other words being cut out the conversation just because someone likes my lady friend is not nice. Also the lady you are talking to realizes that you aren't threatened by her guy friends and I see it as a way of showing respect "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

I have a lot of aunts and there is a specific one whose death I would not mourn. There are aunts and there are aunts. Got a few I care a lot about and would give my left kidney for. Got 1 where i promised myself 40 years ago, when she's dead I'll go and pee on her grave. I should probably check if she's still alive, never liked empty promises if I can help it. “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.
