2 Guys I know went on holiday, back in the day, disposable cameras etc. Had a great time with two ladies, all sorts happened. Came home, developed pictures, found one with the girls and their toothbrushes up their asses. They say it was a sick prank, knowing one of them well to I'm not so sure....

Use zip not tar.gz. I just lost 2GBs of data because the archive was corrupted out of nowhere :')

Only then do I find out that if a zip file id corrupted the damage is only done to one compressed file unlike tar where the damage affects everything after it.

I lost my kitty a couple weeks ago and I'm really sad and miss him so much, but I got 2 new kitties from the shelter and I'm so happy to have them.

Most countries have at least a few dozen countries they can travel to without a visa and visas are easy to obtain anyway, so if you ever want to take a break from the rat race, all you need is a plane ticket to a destination with a favorable exchange rate, and with a thousand dollars of savings you can take a hiatus from working or work on a creative project you're interested in for months or years, depending on your lifestyle.

The problem with the rat race is that even if you win you’re still a rat.

If you score the two "veins" at the base of the tip, of a banana, with your thumbnail and pinch as you open it will peel open every time and you don't have to do the upside down thing and don't get that hard black bit.

Its true that in life you need some luck. But luck can be made. You can carve the path and work hard for luck to come.
