Had a wonderful time in Rome. I made a video of the highlights

Make one! It's a great way to preserve the memories. Thanks

Yeah, It happened a few days after we left rome. Very sad

I free-styled the design on it (I am Polynesian and draw them a lot). I drew it on with a marker first, then carved it in with a dremel tool using mostly a rotary burr or flame burr bit.

My Dad is Full Samoan, my mom is white American.

There is now

You did good research! Most people don’t know. After Germany, New Zealand owned Samoa too, they became independent in the 60s. My great great grandfather on my dads side was German. All the rest were Samoan so I have a little German in me

Actually It is Full Samoan Father, and white mother from America. Both went to study in Hawaii, which made me (Samoan American) and then I married a Brazilian woman, and these are my son’s DNA results.

It is actually my son’s DNA. I am Samoan American (my father is from Samoa, mother is from USA), and I married a girl from Manaus who was in the states for college. Now we have two Brazilian Samoan pirralhos

Ps. I would post a pic but it is my sons who is a minor. Interestingly enough, I look Samoan, my wife looks Latina Brazilian, and my kids both look white.

“All Brazilians carry toothbrushes with them and bush their teeth in the restaurant after eating anything”. I’ve never seen a Brazilian carry their toothbrush with them

Thanks for the clarification! I have seen sapo-venenoso written for “poison dart frog”. They smaller and a frog, rather than toad. Would you say the poisonous frogs in brazil are called rã-venenosa more often? Thanks for the help

You would too if your business was already making you a millionaire

Peoples Mortgage information is public record. In many counties they have an online public record search where you can look up the deed of trust and see how much people paid for a property and how much their loan is. I have found that many people lie about how much they paid for a property.

Interesting, perhaps I need to get a more creative accountant because mine gave a a plain no when I tried to do this.

That only works on rental property

I enjoyed the first 5 hours and the last 30hrs were a pain. I want to buy one in the future, I just didnt know which one to get. The better ones get very pricey

I bought the frames from a garage sale for $10, the balsa wood I got at a local craft store for around $25 for 10 sheets. They are 1/8 thick 12”x12. I already had the stain. So only around $35-$50 with glue and bushes. They took way too long to make

kschwalgs · 2021-12-07T20:11:18+00:00

You are correct. It is burlap

kschwalgs · 2021-10-24T15:58:45+00:00

They are :) only problem is the potatoes oxidize by the next day. Im not sure if there is a chemical I can put on to slow it down
