Summer is my least favorite season. I usually spend most of it in front of the air conditioner.
Post a Random Fact About Yourself
- Thread starter Sibyl
- Start date
I've seen people catch a cold in the middle of summer with an AC too intense.
Yes Disco, but I've actually become immune. 
I'm demisexual (look it up)
So it has nothing to do with people aroused by people wearing a demibra then...
Lol. But, would he qualify as the musician or the actor?Frakes?
Is there an opposite label to demisexual? Before I got married, I generally had to want to screw a dude before wanting to date him.
Both, I guess.
You still read a physical newspaper?
Yup, everyday. Make myself a cup of tea and unfold the paper.
I think I do, as well. The only real benefit to electronic books is when I'm reading a VERY long and heavy book, like the hardback edition I bought of "Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell." It was about 1000 pages with all the footnotes, and I had to lug that thing around with me everywhere, because I loved it so much. However, when I'm reading at night, I find the e-book experience less enjoyable--not quite sure why. Maybe it's the lighting or the way I have to hold the tablet. It's just not as pleasant an experience as holding a paperback in my hands.
I always try to turn the page when I read an e-book. 52 years of reading paper books creates habits that are hard to overcome.
e-books are rather handy when on a vacation or in hospital, though. You can take the contents of a whole bookcase with you =)

I actually feel more comfortable posting on this more informal part of the website
Many many years ago when I worked in hospital pharmacies, I used to sing the drug names as I filled the floor carts. Zovirax was sung in place of "Elvira" by the Oak Ridge Boys. Hydrochlorothiazide was sung to The William Tell Overture. Those are the only two that I remember now. No loss...
the formal part is, I presume, those sub-fora that deal with everything Trek-ish.
Great minds, Delta Vega - I post almost exclusively at Misc and in the Lounges as they are the friendliest parts of the board. And occasionally I can't resist to give my opinion in the Science forum if there's a biological topic (or maths, physics, IT or astronomy).
Random fact: I had to repeat one year at school due to bad results in maths and Latin. Later, I took Latin as one of my 4 required A-levels and I'm now doing maths for fun =)
