Oh absolutely. I started with 3rd grade, doing that for three years. Then I jumped to 5th, did that for three more. One in 7th/8th science before moving out of the classroom to a technical instructor which was awesome until the horrible admin came in. I loved those earlier years, but the school I left has gone downhill drastically.
Yes I could see this. There's little intrinsic motivation displayed in the students I've seen/taught/worked with. After 10 years in education, I left due to revolving door administration. Shelf life of a principal seems to be 3 years max, before they're on to the next rung of their career ladder.
Actually making it to level -1 in SMB after finding out how to do it from the TV show Video Game Power. I needed my NES Advantage to do it reliably, but it blew my mind to learn it was legit.
Personally: to live in nice midrise in a walkable European city with a remote job I enjoy and two friends to hang out with.
Globally: for people to stop actively seeking ways to harm each other and just be cool already.
I'm a big fan. Have rewatched the series a few times in recent years after only catching it randomly as a kid in the 80s. Highly recommend Shooting Columbo if you're interested. Great website too pointing out interesting aspects. https://bonaventurepress.com/SHOOTING-COLUMBO/
Dope! I've got the original one which is too small for the minifigs. This one looks so sharp, love the details.
I always assumed it was due to gluttony being typically visible. Reading 1 Corinthians 6:9 and following, for example, you see several sins many sins which are more internal, or at least easier to hide. Sitting in church and looking around at the crowd, you can get an idea on any gluttonous individuals just by their look. Not always, and clearly you can be overweight without being a glutton. This though was why I reasoned we never hear sermons on this particular sin.
I used to go to the gym, but now workout at home. Mostly body weight exercises and cardio. I workout after work, as I hate working up early. Mine are older now but even when younger they didn't mine. The gym had babysitters and eventually I used the YMCA which had awesome childcare options.
A variety of neat activities and educational pages.
Great song. Video is certainly a snapshot of the era. BTW if you've never heard the demo, check it out. I think it's great on its own. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t88P4SsSV58
Kind of. I'm 45, and met my best friend years ago here in Houston. He divorced his wife and moved home to Scotland, where I've been fortunate to visit him twice. He's the ideal friend, though being across the ocean makes it incredibly hard to really maintain. We keep in contact, but that's all. So now I'm either with my three teen daughters or alone with the dog. EDIT: Separated from my wife.
