Heavy Metal quite literally killed Beethoven.

People were exposed to lead and mercury as well as other heavy metals and toxins a lot over the years.   These were used in clothing manufacture, dining materials (plates, cups) and lots of manufacturing.  Its amazing we've survived this far.

All that's left here is a bed, tv, and a folding chair. 5/31 i pack the car with a few odds and ends and head south. Tomorrow i host a cigar tasting at the 31 club here as a goodbye party. I will bring the Caldwell eastern standard sun grown. I find them very enjoyable.

We take turns hosting and bring some un-banded cigars for a group of about 10. We smoke the cigar and try to guess the wrapper, binder, filler, origin etc. Its a fun evening.

Being in IT, I've never been worried about taking a digital exam. But now that I'm having my follow-up with the urologist, all bets are off.

That does sound very cool. I'm going to try to set sometime like that up.

Impressive. I knew you were going to swing and miss on the first try. But you turned that around quite nicely.

A fortuitous second guess helped, as I got 3 of the letters that I doubt are commonly combined in 5-letter words.

Day started off great on the course and ended up shit at the end, because the dishwasher appears to have crapped out. Sigh.

That sucks. Even worst, doing the dishes by hand.
