Twin Lakes
For anyone who wants to come please let me know, via phone (437-2076), email, or the messageboard (probably best). We'll be heading out on Saturday around 6ish depending on when myself and Andy are done work. It's an hour south of here (directions to follow) so we should get there around 7ish and set up camp. Stay there Saturday night, Sunday night, and come back monday afternoon/evening.
What to Bring
1. Tent (if you have one)
2. Sleeping Bag
3. Change of Clothes (or 2)
4. Swimming Stuff
5. Campfire cookable food
6. Alcohol
7. Camera
8, Slackline
9. A towel
10. Something fun to do
If I think of anything else I'll add it.
Costs
$12 per night per site (which can accomodate a few tents)
Foodstuffs
Miscellaneous stuffs
(should be pretty cheap)
How to get there
1. Drive South on Highway 2
2. Turn West onto Highway 13 (Ma-Me-O Beach exit)
3. Keep Driving
4. Turn left at the "Twin Lakes" sign
5. If you get to Winfield you've missed the sign, turn around and go back 4km.
If we all go together we shouldn't get lost because I can navigate, I've been there many times.
I don't know who's going for sure other than myself, Jere, and Dana, if you are coming please let me know. Also if we have a large enough group we may need one more vehicle. I can't see us needing any more than 2 as yet.

Hey Jere I hope you check this sometime in the next two days.
I have in my possession 6 steel 72's and 2 aluminum 100's. Also I have a dry suit that seems to fit well, and all the necessities of diving. That's 4 dives each, if you want more you're gonna have to grab more tanks because Mike was wary of giving me 8. (I managed to convince him that I should only pay $50 for a dry suit, gloves, and 8 tanks for 5 days).
Thus... diving is a go.
You need to supply big dive-lights.

That seems odd how we can manipulate language around like such. You basically tried to justify how you say something by making a definition in some internet source. However you originally claimed that the source was discreditable (Remeber: "Fuck urbandictionary"). So if I made a definition of "checkmate" and it is confirmed then your definition is just as valid as my definition. In other words you didn't really have to justify how you used the phrase, you should of just used it and not care what people think.

So you basically made up the phrase "checkmate" and are using it as how you see fit. I just don't get why we can't talk normally. I don't try to use phrases I wouldn't use in real life. Then again this is the internet and we don't really exist in a physical sense. Anyway I try to keep this personality close to my real self as possible. No weird phrases from me, lest I start "talking" in Klingon or something.

So what's with the ketchup then?
My horse finally managed to kick me. I guess that was inevitable as he's been trying really hard for the last year and a half to do so, but I wasn't paying enough attention today and he finally nailed me. Jerk.
Pam & Paras - do you want to do hostel stuff sometime? I'm busy this weekend, but mostly free next week and weekend.

Cows have a tendency to eat things that do not belong in their systems. IE. nails, part of barb wire fences, cans- anything that may be found in a feild- and they have a particular liking for metal. If a cow has eaten a nail or piece of fence or something - it goes through their system, cutting up the numerous stomachs. So if you feed a cow a magnet- it will attract the metal - and sit in one of their four stomachs so it does not continue through the body- damaging the rest of it.
However- there is a slight problem- if the cow eats a lot of metal and there is a magnet holding it all - you will eventually have to do surgery to remove the collection.
I hope that answers your question.

I'm confused as to why you feed cows magnets?
That question mark doesn't really belong there does it.
