Jennka

To expound on my plight of remembering everything but names, I'm looking for an artist who is famous for children's book art. I know that he's famous for his illustrations of towns of animals and a worm with a green hat and I even know June 5th is his birthday, but I don't know his name . I hope something in there rung a bell for you .

I´m sorry Joe, no ringing this time I think I can´t name a single illustrator

Jennka, just like the others I miss you and your infectious, energetic spirit.. It's evident now, more than ever... that you were essential in bringing a lot of forum color.

I thought you might find this interesting since you are interested in Game theory.:...:

This is a popularized version of this Yale professor's course on Game Theory:

Why hi there, long time no see :D

No I don't use Facebook, but I've had the same thoughts, wanting to post stuff here in your thread

 

Hope you work it out and we get to see you more.

 

I´m trying Mahi, how are you? Haven´t heard from you for a long time!

 

Hey,sweety  I'm fine,thank you.I haven't been  alot on BZ  for more than 2 months now,from time to time I come here.I'm doing so fine.

Is everything going well?work?FL?family?I want to know that everything is ok.

Yay, peaches!! lookin really nice there, Dave. I have accidentally grown tomatoes on my balcony, lol. In a flower pot with rock roses - it just appeared one day, so I took care about it and it had like 5 or six tomatoes, lol.

WOOT, you're back Jennka!

And oh those peaches were good but not a lot of them this past season compared to previous So it was a free for all rush as to who got the ripe ones first Ha, oh my, that sneaky tomatoe plant! I guess that is a sign from above or from someone around that you need more lycopene in your diet

So how are things going J?

Joe!! That poem is so beautiful! Love it you are really creative!

 

I remember when we used to exchange poems with eNe, do you remember him?

Hey! Welcome back, Jennka!

Hey Michael   any news on that Daria movie?

No I don't use Facebook, but I've had the same thoughts, wanting to post stuff here in your thread

Please feel free to do so or you can make a facebook account

I need to save them and post them in your thread, but I´m always so lazy to do that.

Btw I´ve seen this UP movie recently and was smitten by it, however the first part was so painful that I cried

Oh, dogs

I think it is, there´s always just the regular mess you need to deal with when having family Fl still works for the same company, we still do the reconstruction works on the cottage and also we started to plan our own house, we just need at first to deal with all the byroucracy and family stuff. I will write more when I´m certain of the details.

How are you dealing with your marriage now, has it gotten better?

WOOT, you're back Jennka!

So how are things going J?

Oh, I bet that no one eats as much tomatoes as I do, lol I´m really addicted to them. Anything tomatoe-like makes me go bonkers

Things are great, just a little bit slow on the house thing I wrote you about. I mean sometimes it´s impossible to meet with my father who I need to solve some things with, because we´re all very busy so maybe next week, I hope so.

How about you and Jenny? Enjoying everything?

Of course as he's one of the three other basketball fans here .

Good luck with the Russian . I find that motivation plays a large role in learning languages and thus I gave up on Russian as a result of not having anyone to speak to with it on a regular basis or ever having any Russian shows or movies to watch. Actually, the only famous Russian people most people over here care about in general seem to be blonde tennis players . Ironically, Nina plays recreational basketball too although I found in strange that in her SI interview, she said that she was terrified at how tall Lebron (only 6'9) was . I would think that a basketball fan would have seen some much taller than that. Actually, there are some female players and even everyday women taller.

Do you know what happened to eNe?

And thank you. I have the problem with Spanish - I have no one to talk to and only one Spanish movie so at least I try to read a lot and do exercise. Now I´m in the half of the second Harry Potter book in Spanish I´m slow because I read three books in three different languages at once, but  just can´t give up any of them. So I just go one and tell my brain "Get used to it and stop complaining" lol.

Well, as for Nina, I played recreational basketball as well and never met such tall person all of my companions were mostly of regular height. Lebron would be a giant in my eyes

Sounds like tomato gazpacho is right up your alley then, wouldn’t last more than a day or two it sounds like too

Oh I completely understand where you are coming from in terms of the house situation and having everyone and thing lined up for you to move forward. But as long as you set it as your goal with persistence in mind you shall be there in no time at all

As far as us goes, all is going fairly well here. Other then a slight sprain to my right ankle everything is very peachy so far We actually saw a house here not long ago but after a bit of digging on the house info we came to realize it had heavy termite damage and asbestos issues I swear, new construction is ideal but can't say the same on the price

He generally posts more during the NBA season. If you're looking for more books in Spanish, there are some good ones in the 'magical realism' genre. It is good that you read multiple books at once. That's great brain exercise . This is surprising to hear about the height thing since you all have a taller average height for both males and females. I guess it is just that then, the average whereas we have a lot of extremes. There are a lot of men under 5'5 and women well under that and a lot of men over 6'7 and women over 6'4 on the other hand. Actually, the average Chinese man is like 5'5 whereas the tallest basketball player is like 7'9 and is Chinese on the other hand. The NBA is somewhat strange in that they have so many that are so tall and so athletic at the same time though. Most people that tall in regular life aren't particularly athletic.

Speaking of countries, strangely enough, your country played a part in my initial quest to learn geography (independent of where animals are from). When I was a kid, I would hear people say, 'Chekaslovakia' and I was like 'what the heck is that?' One woman said, 'yeah, that's that pretty little wife of his from Checkdaslovakia somewhere.' It was after reading that I found out what they were trying to say. Strangely enough, some still say that even though its been gone for 20 some odd years now .

That Bredje has really grown on me as a side note. I can't believe she's Dutch though. I just knew she was Belarusian. There's something about her that makes it hard to stop looking at her . Its somewhat like the feeling I get from looking at a really weird looking model but with attraction mixed in at the same time.

Btw I´ve seen this UP movie recently and was smitten by it, however the first part was so painful that I cried

 

Oh, dogs

Up is a wonderful movie.

The opening 10 minutes or so is equally beautiful and heartbreaking.. gets me every time

I love how most of that sequence, like much of Wall-E, was done without any dialogue.

Can't remember if I've posted any of Pogo's videos in here before, but you might like this one

 

Hey! Welcome back, Jennka!

Hey Michael   any news on that Daria movie?

Sadly not. Somebody get Hollywood on the phone and make it happen!

I trust you're keeping well?
