@valtmy Oh, Singapore! We have kapeefers all over the world! (it’s an awesome thought) 😀

@ariel-ashira

Bye then 😀

(Yes, I do sometimes read books on Gutenberg :D)

@ariel-ashira Is that a good interesting or bad?

Nothing right now, but I will be soon.

@ariel-ashira

No worries! How’s your research going?

whoops, messed up your tag @valtmy

@jenwriter17 @valtmy

I’ll probably be on later, but I want to get some writing done today, so I might not be on as much.

@vatlmy whoah what? lunch time?! Are you in Australia too? 😉

@ariel-ashira @seekjustice Will both of you be on later tonight? about in like 2 1/2 – 3 hours? I might be on then…

@ariel-ashira

Hello! I’ll be around for a bit 🙂

@dekreel Praying for you, my friend!

@dekreel It’s been amazing knowing you, friend-who-is-not-a-wolf! 😉 (See how nice I’m being?  I didn’t call you a wolf.  Aren’t you happy with me? 😛 I must admit that your tail is quite free of hair, unlike a wolf’s, but you must admit that your old profile picture didn’t include a tail, so you can see where the confusion began.)

I’m glad you s…[Read more]

@valtmy @Rochellaine

I must leave now. Bye!

That would be Ned Kelly, probably the most famous Australian ever, even though he was Irish. he thought he was Don Quixote and made himself a helmet and breastplate, though this unfortunately did not deter the police, who simply shot him in the legs to prevent his escape.

In case you don’t believe what I said about a tin can…

@valtmy 🙂

@seekjustice And who, may I ask, was that man?

Our Johnny Appleseed wore a tin hat.  It’s usually depicted as a pot or frying pan, but apparently it was just a tin hat which he ate out of.

We also tell of a giant with a blue ox…but unfortunately he isn’t real. 😉

@rochellaine

You say to the Australians, who glorify a man with a tin can on his head.

@valtmy

Hello!

@seekjustice

Yes, you mustn’t think our history is anything but dignified.  Ignore the fact that a crowd of Boston men dressed up in rags and painted their faces with “Indian war paint” so they could dump a lot of tea in Boston Harbor.  Yup, we’re very dignified.

@valtmy Hello!  So far SE is fine.  I’m kind of indifferent.  It feels a lot like…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I was just thinking that. He makes such detailed notes on the illustrations but we’re just left to imagine them 🙁

Very good advice. I might end up with slightly odd ideas.

Imagine if he was alive today and making satirical comments on modern society 😛

@seekjustice I wish the Gutenberg copy included the original illustrations instead of just mentions of them.  I’m sure they’re quite hilarious.  Maybe I should get a hard copy sometime.

I’d advise you not to read the Comic History of America until you know a little more about our history… 😛  Just like with his history of England, there are a…[Read more]

Well, it wasn’t easy to find “with a quick search of his name”, because that man wrote a lot but I did eventually find it and I’m up to Chapter 3 and quite enjoying it.

I’m at a stage in life where I have no motivation to do anything. Work, chores, even common-sense actions like brushing my teeth. Please pray that I snap out of it and that I rely on God for self-confidence and diligence.
