Living Life to the Fullest: My Forum Adventure

[pattylou]

Hi! Hi!

One of my New Year's resolutions was to cut down to a single set of forums. I succeeded!

I participate on a fairly active set of forums that is hosted out of Europe. Most participants are British, and for whatever reason I enjoy the "ambience" there. Maybe it's because they say things like "loo" and "lift" and they spell things wrong.

I thought I'd post the link here.

There's not much physics per se (there's some) but lots of other boards that are geared towards general science topics. Have a look.

I hope you all are doing great. I miss most of you terribly. But it's great to be doing other things in my life as well. Can you believe I only post about 4 times per day *anywhere* on the internet anymore? Oh my god. The laundry gets done, the kitchen gets cleaned, the toilets get scrubbed... Not that I'm saying this is more fun, but it's good.

OK then. Later, dudes and dudettes.

You left PF for a forum with not much physics?! WHY pattylou?

Welcome back, Pattylou!

Happy Valentine's Day.

The laundry gets done, the kitchen gets cleaned, the toilets get scrubbed . . .

Housework can be a spiritual experience. So can gardening, but it's not time yet.

LOL. Curse you, Z component. Now I'm posting on the internet again today and I already hit my quota of 4.

Why? Because ...they have a "human body" forum.

No no no, they don't talk about Heather Locklear (or whoever), but they *do* talk about tapeworms, diabetes, drug-resistant bacteria, etc.

You can talk about physics, I promise. Either in Space, or Current Science, or Science Q&A... You could even petition for a physics board and I bet you'd get it.

I divided my rhubarb today and thought of you.

Happy Valentine's Day.

You're a sweetheart. (kiss smiley)

Hey, thanks for the reminder. I did one rhubarb plant last fall. The next one is bigger, but perhaps now is the time.

And I am axiously waiting to see if I was successful propagating the blackberries and strawberries. The raspberries and blueberries seem to be taking care of themselves.

You're a sweetheart. (kiss smiley)

Back at you, as long as your husband doesn't object.

I see, well whatever interests you! Nice to have you back!

Hi Pattylou.

 

[Evo]

Wellcome back Pattylou! We've missed you, I was afraid we'd scared you off.

tapeworms, diabetes, drug-resistant bacteria, etc.

Sounds like my kind of place. :!)

 

[tribdog]

do they have a section for me? you know, no real science, lots of fluff.

welcome back, Pattylou!
