The Town of Odyssey

Well hello from South Africa, everyone \:D/ I haven't logged on here in forever, it seems like. I'm currently taking a gap year before starting college next fall. I spent this week in London, before continuing on to Cape Town, South Africa yesterday. I'll be here for the next few months living with ...

We saw it in theaters on opening weekend. Technically speaking, everything was right on. The set design, costumes etc. were really great (better than Courageous, definitely). The acting was pretty good too. No cheesy lines stood out to me or anything :P Story-wise it was good, but I felt like the sc...

Congratulations Laura! That was a perfect way to announce your engagement

What is life :crazy:

Crazy, Gracy! It seems like life is moving so fast these days Did you have to move far away for school, or stay close to home?

Congratulations Gracy!

Ooooooooooh. That does make sense. :yes: (sorry, I'm not the best at interpreting books. :P Plus, it was the last book I had to read for the school year, so I may have skimmed. :- ) Thanks for changing my interpretation of it. ;) Heh, it happened to be the last book I had to read for the school yea...

Right, as I said the wording is misleading. This would be more correctly described as a body transplant. It’s for someone who has a functioning head, but needs a new body to put it on. So you, the head, are still your consciousness, just on the former body of someone else. So are we (as in, whoever...

I finished my college courses My last math lesson is today, and my last Physics lesson is Thursday. Graduation is in sight

So, if you had a head transplant, who are you? The person who's head was given a different body, or the person who's body was given a different head?

If this catches on there will definitely be some ethical questions raised..

Alas, Babylon. Aside from some rather disappointing typos it's an interesting read. Oooh, Alas, Babylon! That was an interesting book...it took me a while to understand what was happening, but it was a great book nonetheless. ;) I don't remember any typos though... :/ What did you think of the endi...

Co-champs again! I was thrilled when Vanya went all the way

There are also two younger brothers of past champions in the semi's this year: Jairam Hathwar, younger brother of 2014 co-champion Sriram, and Srinath Mahankali, younger brother of 2013 champion Arvind. There could be a first-ever Spelling Bee dynasty family this year. Personally, I'm pulling for Va...

Well... I did receive a few suggestions, and the winner was....


I realized that the only name that fits me is Jesus' Princess. Bookworm, technically you won. Which prize would you like to claim?

Whoo!! Congratulations guys

I know I didn't comment during the election threads and stuff, but I was behind your team all the way

Voted y'all

*Is behind snubs and Moontide all the way*

My two real fears are failure and needles (which makes for an interesting paradox when I have to get a shot- do I face the needle, or chicken out and "fail" :P ) Now, to join the above conversation: I would probably try a (fully cooked) bug if I were in a place/culture where it was a norma...

So, married then?

Yes, we're married.

Wait - y'all are joking, right?

The Lord of the Rings trilogy *gasp* The Princess Bride *gasp again* I've also never watched any of the Marvel/avenger type movies, any of the Harry Potter movies, or any of the Indiana Jones movies. The first few are because I just haven't gotten around to watching them yet (I know, I know, I'm a b...
