Anatomic Snuffbox
Anatomic Snuffbox, to me, that is a great name for a band, it strikes out as such. And what an anatomic snuffbox is:
The triangular area of the dorsum of the thumb overlying the scaphoid bone. A depression is formed when the thumb is extended. The tendons of the extensor pollicis longus muscle bound the ulnar side of the depression, and the abductor brevis tendons form the radial border. When snuff was used, a small pinch could be placed in this 'box' and snuffed up into the nose from that site. Tenderness in this area may be present when the scaphoid bone is fractured.

Taxi Service...in the living room?!
Last night, about half past two, there was a crash, which sounded like a trash can being knocked over by the wind. Then there was the sound of a car alarm. After rushing to the window and then rushing downstairs I realised it was not a trash can. Across the way from our house, on the main road, number 71 had a taxi sticking out of it's living room wall. The house next to it, was lucky in the fact that the Ford belonging to number 71, missed hitting it.
It as snowy last night and the street was covered in it, about 2 inches, I'd say. The taxi must have skitted, hit the Ford that was parked on the street in front of number 71, spun around and then went straight for the living room. Their door was totally 'wrecked' and part of the wall underneath the front window was gone. When we were curtain twitching and door peeking, we noticed that a structual engineer had been called out. It was quite cold and they didn't board up the front window till later on in the morning, when it was light, which was when the cars were removed.
I was very thankful that our house is not on the main road. And no, no pictures were taken, because I don't want to 'gain' anything off of someone else's misery.
...seeing as it is after the fact, then I'll get some pictures and post them.

Never.. have I
In recent days, I have heard two sayings of which I have never heard before.
The first one is:
In true love one seeks good in a person. In romantic love, one seeks the person.
The second one... it's too memorable to put here.

I'm sorry x 1000
Do you know what irks me about people and this happens most often in SL. It's the fact that when they... utterly piss me off, they continue to say 'Sorry... oh I am so sorry.. I'll make it up to you' about a thousand times over and over.
If you are going to say sorry, say it once; otherwise, it will only annoy me further and not do you any favours.
