    Well, that is fantastic about you going to the US. If you happen to be in New York, let me know.

    Ok, here's my boast. I gave my sixth blood donation of the year todaay. i think that is the most anyone can give in any one year. You are allowed to donate every 56 days here and I basically donated every other month. I do hope my blood helps some needy person.

    Your boas is much too kind, Virgil! It shouldn't count as one ... Maybe it counts as the opposite of a boasting! haha!

    congrats Thespian, Remarkable and Virgil

    I finally got my exam results (for my graduation exams, similar to MA)
    I've got an 1.68 overall. 1 is the best mark, like A and 2 corresponds to a B. So I'm somewhere around an A-.
    I've got an A on my thesis and the dreaded C in Linguistics like I expected .

    Congratulations, Weisinheimer - I hope you will be happy and successful in your new job.

    Congratulations, Sleepywitch - what's next?

    Congratulations, Virgil - does that mean you have an empty arm now? (Whoops, that dates me... and I shouldn't make jokes about such a worthy cause, so - apologies. They don't want my blood - too many allergies floating round in it, they said.)

    Great Kilt. That's discipline. You reminded me. I used to switch over to club sodas with a lime at some point. Everyone used to think I was still drinking something sophisticated and were shocked when they asked. One person was shocked at how much he thought I was drinking without getting the least bit drunk.
