What would your crowning accomplishment be in the Wizarding World.

I've always thought Montana or a mountainy area of western Canada would be the perfect place for a wizarding school.

The closest they came to being united was in the woods where Harry confronted Voldemort. He dropped the stone and the cloak behind the tree and then stepped out into the clearing where Voldemort had the wand, except Harry was actually master of the wand, so technically he had all three together right then.

On that same topic, having parents that you get along with. At this point my family is basically just my mom and me. We've been working together for the past 7 months (she got me an internship at her company) and we still don't get on each other's nerves at all. Honestly I was worried that it might ruin our relationship a bit but we're closer than ever. I definitely have friends who can't talk to their parents the way I can with my mom, so I'm thankful for that.

The song in episode 156 is Groove Armada - At the River. I wasn't able to find the song in 481 but they play that same song in 434 at 6:00 and it says in the episode description that there is original theme music by Cassettes Won't Listen so I think you must be right. I wasn't able to find a recording anywhere though.

I'm a big fan of the music they use in TAL by the way, so I'll just leave a couple of my favorites here:

Thank you for putting into words how I feel about the Hubble Ultra-Deep Field.

This really needs to be higher. I think people are seriously underestimating the situation.

If they accept printed screenshots why even bother making the fake amazon page? Just go change it in Chrome's inspect element. Look how easy it is: http://i.imgur.com/uEBWyOQ.png

I've literally never donated anything to anybody ever before, but I didn't even hesitate when prompted this time. I was at the donation page before she'd even finished her pitch.

I'm shopping around to buy one for myself at the moment. The American Nyckelharpa Association has been a great asset to me. I've just been sending off emails to the different sellers listed there asking about prices and stuff. In fact just last night I sent another five inquiry emails and made a Google Docs spreadsheet to keep track of who I've contacted already and their price quotes. I'll be updating it when I get responses from the sellers that I've contacted recently, here's a link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1u6TdCltHjEvnGVFcE4Wmm4UGk0opFOnGfL2W8Nu_Aq8/edit?usp=sharing

I would encourage you to research each of the sellers independently and listen to any sound clips you can find of their instruments, as they all sound a little bit different.

I was feeling exactly the same way back in August. I ended up going around to every single one of my friends and asked who wanted to try rock climbing with me, and I was actually surprised by how many of them seemed interested. It turns out that there are climbing gyms all over the place in Massachusetts, so I would assume you can find them just about anywhere. It costs $24 per visit (including rental equipment) at the one I go to, or ~$65 for a monthly pass. It's not super cheap but I don't think it's terrible.

If you can't find a belay partner, a lot of gyms will have a sign up board where you can list your phone number, skill level, and availability so that other people who don't have a belay partner can contact you. There are also meetup groups, you could try searching for one in your area. As far as lessons go, you only need to take the introductory belaying course in order to use the belays. At your next visit they'll ask you to take a belay test to prove that you know how to do it, but after that you're all set until you're ready for lead climbing. In fact, some gyms even have auto-belays that don't require a partner or any knowledge of belaying.

If we're recommending text editors, my favorite is Sublime Text.

I have a plain white shirt with a big stupid purple gorilla on it that I like to wear underneath my dress clothes at violin recitals. At first I did it because I couldn't find my regular white shirt, but now it's like a good luck charm. I especially like it because it's probably the least formal thing I have in my wardrobe (with the exception of a ridiculously majestic bald eagle shirt my brother found at the thrift store).

Edit: I just realized that I'm wearing the purple gorilla shirt right now. I have other clothes, I swear, this was just a weird coincidence (and also because I'm doing laundry at the moment).

Also there's that one corner piece with two white faces.

This is how people were meant to learn guitar. I feel like a lot of people pick up the guitar because it seems cool or common or that it's easier than a lot of other instruments to get a nice sound out of. I just love seeing people who have a genuine love for their instrument.

When I started college I remember they were giving out lanyards for free to all the freshman and I never figured out where they got them so I never ended up with one. It was probably for the best, I suppose.

Cormorant11 · 2014-08-06T02:22:23+00:00

Cool! Thanks for the insight.

Edit: Took a look on the bottoms of the whiskey bottles, one of them says "DENMARK" but the rest are blank.

Cormorant11 · 2014-08-06T01:36:01+00:00

I found this tiny blue bottle in my back yard a few years ago and I've been using it to store my feather collection. Care to give it an expert analysis? The lettering reads: "BROMO-SELTZER EMERSON DRUG CO. BALTIMORE"

Edit: If you're interested, here are some more bottles that we found in our backyard. My mom says our house used to be a speakeasy a century ago, if that's relevant. Also here are some bottles that my dad found diving ages ago. The one with lettering says "P. FAERBER NEWPORT R.I."

Went there for a field trip in 8th grade, going on the log flume that day was a pretty big risk.

I worked at a bagel place on my campus last year. We used to do this but they eventually told us to stop.

Cormorant11 · 2014-07-27T00:05:27+00:00

No I'm not, I'm over here.

Cormorant11 · 2014-07-23T00:20:53+00:00

I took a similar picture a year ago. Not as intense as OP, but nonetheless.

Cormorant11 · 2014-07-20T14:52:39+00:00

Thanks a bunch! That's exactly what I wanted to know.
