I give most of them away and only keep a few. I think atm I have about 20.
Surely something good happened to you today

After 2 days I finally detected the source of the disagreeable smell in my kitchen: a few wilted leaves had fallen off the basil and of all places they had to drop right into the container for the condensated moisture on the backside of my fridge where they started to rot in the water. Amazing that something as fragrant as basil can reek so badly as it decomposes.

I started a blog and, with a little help
, I’m sheepishly putting it out there.Until very recently I’ve been the online equivalent of a wall flower, but as part of my recovery I decided to sod it and signed up with Facebook and twitter, I’ve got 5 twitter followers now, but I don’t really know what to do with it.
I’ve got a couple of followers here but I don’t understand how it works. I followed a few users but nothing seemed to happen.
I am impressed. I don't think I've ever seen one, for real, not on a picture, that is.
I finally found a couple of my old music files! The mp3 versions. I'd found the Cubase files a while ago but they do me no good now that I don't have most of the VST plugins associated with them anymore.
Ugh. I love aspects of one piece I found, but Imma need to lift the parts I like and create a whole new piece. The production values on that mp3 are horrible!

Tried the jalapeño M&Ms today. They’re pretty good!
Yes! I don't know if you have them in the US, but up here they're a limited-time flavour in one of those "vote for your favourite" contests. The other two are English Toffee and Thai Coconut.
Because chocolate and spicy go great together!
(Granted, I may be biased, because I love chocolate, and I love spicy. Of course, I also love pickles, and I would never say chocolate and pickles go great together. 
)You've probably seen those spicy chocolate bars in the store? I've made chipotle brownies before, too, and they're quite good! (Just don't accidentally give them to people without telling them what they are, when they're expecting regular brownies...
)
Yeah, I've seen spicy chocolate bars and wondered "who eats these?"- now I know.Yes! I don't know if you have them in the US, but up here they're a limited-time flavour in one of those "vote for your favourite" contests. The other two are English Toffee and Thai Coconut.

That can easily be remedied =) If you PM me your address I'll send you this one. It's been a bit nibbled at by some beetle, though. It has several tiny holes.
I was able to offload some kind of ancient MIDI controllers yesterday at Guitar Center for some quick cash. I guess they were not worth quite as much as I thought they were. I thought their scarcity meant they were worth more, but it turns out they're about half the price I was hoping, so I got about half as much or so.
Still, when you need quick cash, it's not to have something that can get it for you.
I have found Guitar Center to be more than fair on what they'll give you for used music gear. Far more than Pawn America!
Oh, and I saw my old 88-key MIDI controller when I was there, still on reserve until the local law allows it to be released after selling it.

I thank you for your offer but I am more of a "teach a man to fish" kind of a guy.
Do have a particular technique when you look at a patch of clovers? Like at what time of the day is it more efficient to look for them?
no, I find them at all tiumes. But it's indeed harder at noon when the sun is high and there are few shades. In the morning or evening it's a bit easier as the shades between the clover leaves outline them. The contrast is stronger.
Other than that there really isn't much to it. A normal clover has a triangular outline and I simply look for aberrations from that pattern.
Imagine you have a patchwork blanket and one square was assembled the wrong way. It'd immediately stand out, wouldn't it? That's the same sort of pattern recognition I do with the clovers.

A rough estimate: How long does it take you on average to find one four-leave clover? One hour? Ten hours? more? less?
(If I try it I just want to know how much I suck at it.
)
I got to sleep in this morning!
My boss -- the boss of my boss-- actually listened to my suggestion and agreed.
