When I joined last semester, I had a teacher who could be described as eccentric. The class was computational chemistry, and the only way to succeed was to "Be like Bob."

FSU fan here . . . gotta love the one-liners that Bobby puts out. You think he's heading in one direction and before the sentence is over, he simplifies for it for you. :D
I really like your signature ld. I ran across mine and it hit home, because I think hanging involves a level of "primal simplicity" and at the same time, this group has demonstrated the ability to be virtuous. There has been an incredible sense of community here more than any other forum or virtual group I have been a part of. I thought it was descriptive and it fit.
My signature used to be:
I used it because I would always write "Warbonnet ON!" as a signing line in the journals while I was on the AT. Mine was the first Warbonnet (the mighty ElDorado) on the AT and the phrase always motivated me; like warpaint I guess. :DQuote:
Warbonnet ON! :sneaky:
When I became a mod here, I thought it best to dial down my enthusiasm for one particular vendor (publicly :)). As I thought about a replacement, my mind turned to a fella who has spent a lifetime studying central and south American art. As a byproduct, he discovered and embraced the life of hammocking. In one of his papers, there was a line that said "If you don't love your hammock, you just don't know how to love." I thought it was the perfect line for me; summed-up my feelings very well.
Mine's a Dr Seuss quote, I've always found his insights into life and how to live better then almost all of the most influential people that have ever been apart of our human civilization. I see more insight now then I did when I was younger when I read his books to my nephews.
As for me I've always had the mindset that I need to live life, that nothing can stop me from making myself and the people around me happy, not my career, nor the choices I make, and while I sometimes wish I had made better or different choices, I never regret the ones I have made, because in reality, I would not be where I am now, or have the relationships I do with the people I do, and be as happy as I am. And anytime I hear people complaining that they're tired, they need to go home because they have work or something else to do the following day, my first reaction to them is that they can sleep when they're dead, and that's the way I feel. And maybe that's not what you read into my quote, it's what i see...sorry for getting so philosophical, haha.
This is a predominately USA based forum, I am from Canada, I kept using metric in my posts and so I included a nice little conversion table.
My dad is a shade on the nutty side and my wife and friends think I follow in those footsteps. I personally think I has nothing to do with my pop and all to do with ADHD and skittles (especially those tasty red ones).
