I live on a corner and both my neighbours are away on holidays.
Even though I live alone with plenty of privacy, it feels like an extra nice feeling to know that there are no other human beings in my vicinity.
I have a friend who lives in the city in a massive boarding house where, even though you can't see or hear them, you know that there are people within metres of you. Lots of them.
It's sickening.
I don't believe that big cities have anything to offer that's worth living like that.

Violence may not solve anything, but it can be fun if done properly.

Where in the heck are Anastasiia and Viktoriia on So You Think? I had thought they rocked the auditions.

Never mind. Seeing that it's apparently a visa issue. Too bad. I liked them (maybe it's time for the SYTYCD thread, but I'm out for the night).

IMO, it is not wise to do math late at night: I was working on a proof late last night and hit a dead end; however, after a taking a second look at the proof this morning (after some rest), I realized that I missed an easy contradiction.

My brain has gone into Weird Multitasking Mode. I thought I was reading AF and sipping Glenmorangie Original Scotch, but just became aware that in the back of my brain a few neurons are rehearsing a concert band arrangement of Super Mario Brothers.
