ODDBALLDOM

2 days ago by Twilight

This edited post from a couple of years ago is up for re-airing now, during the Sun's current annual transit through Aquarius. It relates to one trait most Aquarius Sun people seem to have in common - and actually, they don't have that many in common! : A tendency to attract, or be attracted by, "od ...

2 days ago by admin

If you could travel back in time, and ran into yourself as a kid, would it influence your life to come? What if you witnessed – as a kid – the death of someone, and that person turned out to be you as an adult? Would it affect you differently? There are some of us that just looooove that conundrum. ...

Given the amount of money that is generated annually by the food industry, it is surprising that Chef Jamie Oliver has not been the subject of some corporation’s Hit List. You can add an S to the front of that and find a list on which his name can already be found. He campaigned around the US on a c ...

Eyeball Calibration & Nuisance Printing

16 days ago by Heavenly Monkey

Last April we started printing the text pages for Oddballs. After a few weeks, when we were about a quarter of the way through, we looked at the six completed sheets and decided the printing was consistently too light (impression good, ink weak). Friends said they thought we were being fanatical aga ...

Time to re-research.

23 days ago by admin

If you have an advanced college degree and are passing yourself off as a scientific researcher, you need something to look into; consequently, someone is underwriting the expense of a project that involves babies and learning the fundamentals of speech.

Me and my goofy geldings...

87 days ago by Heidi the Hick
