- In Amsterdam at least, the Dutch take pride that they start learning English in Primary school, then much of the TV is imported shows in English that they don’t bother even subtitling, so there’s no excuse for not learning it. Even the homeless druggie who hit me up for cash last night heard me talking and switched to fluent English. Since none of us speak Dutch, it makes Amsterdam even MORE welcoming. Great city so far!
"Everone is so nice here and you speak English!"
"Welcome to Netherlands"
The scariest thing is, “Yes.”
Is that a well-known stereotype?

A minor imp? Do we kill it? With fire?
Good luck with that. Hi's been training him.

And yes, Woran is alive. About to do drinks and possibly dinner with her and Mr. T.
That whole, “Work tomorrow” thing and all that.

Also, if you fight him, make sure you're well armored, because he is a demon with a good bow in his hands. Does like 300d80 damage, never misses, makes Clint Barton look like a little girl. You want Impus Minor on your good side.

Imps are devils. They're immune to fire.

So, for the record, Woran is an awesome tour guide! She walked us all over central Amsterdam, giving really cool history lessons about various buildings and monuments, took us to get GothBard a cool hat, book stored with us, and lost the imps in the canals (though they eventually managed to find their way back). Great day!
We had dinner at “The Five Flies”, a fantastic, quirky little restaurant right next to our hotel, and of course Mr. T insisted that we had to “go Dutch”.
And only Lisamarlene can imagine the amazing expressions that contorted Shiro’s face as he realized that he really couldn’t argue with that, since they had invented the term and all. Another good day! Woo hoo!

Day one of PD workshops. My skeletal plan for a persuasion unit has morphed into a full-blown collaboration with the ag teacher, complete with the possibility of bringing in local businesses.

Hello, I’m on this forum nowImpus major and I have just returned from being lost on a pedal boat in the canals of Amsterdam for almost 2 hoursOMG! Hi, Impus Minor!
And just a few weeks ago (or was that months already?) NobodysHome said neither of you Impuses (Imps? Impii?) looks her so he can say things he doesn't want you to know...
And now I don't remember what was that...

No idea. That was a quote from a recent, quite popular movie.
I wonder if Woran liked that scene if she already saw it.

"This session is for collaboration and implementation."
"So if we're implementing the defensive driving course, we can leave?"
"Hahahahaha no."
Worth a shot.

For the record, telling my kids, “You can’t possibly get lost,” is more of a statement of challenge than anything else.
But after the fifth time the kids said, “Yep, we paddled past this one,” we broke out the map and they’d done nearly 4 “1-hour tours” in about 90 minutes. All over the place. Kids have some legs!

Sorry Woran, you don't get xp for defeating Impuses if they managed to find you again.

You know, I wonder if the grey-haired smiling guy whose Facebook is suggesting me as a possibly friend of mine just because we share single friend is Shiro or not...
His only possible photos I saw were from much higher distance and I don't think they ever shown his face up close (i.e. Eclipse hunt photos). And I think that Hi might have been on those photos too to confuse things.

Good but surprising. I like doing cross-curricular projects, but it's a nightmare to coordinate. But apparently, there's an entire FFA competition based around persuasion: sales. And this dovetails wonderfully with the advertising analysis I was going to have them do anyway for real-world application. I just wasn't expecting an offhand comment of "Yeah, I want to do a more intensive persuasion unit this year" to turn into "Let's buddy up on this."

Long ponytail, more white than grey, both first and last name have five letters, I would be a friend in common?

Not sure about the ponytail because of the way he looks in the camera while smiling during a concert. Glasses. Photos of shooting zombies where he looks sort of like bearded Mark Harmon.

Yes, profile pic is at a concert, wearing black shirt. Red seats behind him.
(Can you tell I'm bored today? We took the kids to the park for the morning, then brought them home and made them lunch, then sat and waited while it took kids forever to eat lunch. Now Grandma has my niece down for a nap, Eve is studying, and I'm going to throw my two hellions into the pool.)

He seems to be the type that gets grey and white rather early. Like in his fifties or even late forties.

Whelp, Homunculus #1 just walked in on Mrs Sunrise and I and is now hiding. Dying of embarrassment, I'm sure.all part of growing up.
A really good conversation came of it, in which Mrs Sunrise proved herself the best mother ever. My favorite part of that conversation:
H1: I thought I was hiding it so well, how did you know I've been watching porn in my room?!
Mrs Sunrise: Because you're a 13 year old boy.
Seems the forums are back to working semi-properly, for the time being at least.

Yeah, Shiro started going grey at 15, and was fully grey in college. He’s in his 50s.
