No...actually I don't.....

When someone focuses a lot of attention on something, that something becomes more present. That's why there are disciplines of meditation. Negative meditation is still meditation.

Another way to look at it relates to sex. If someone is sex obsessed they focus on sex and more sex. If they then flip over to the other side, they seek to push sexual desires far away but only drive them underground when sooner or later they will emerge on the wheel of life.

I don't focus a lot of attention on cats.... only when on RF and you poor misguided RF folk try to say they are cute and cuddly and justify their evil ways of scratching and biting as just another cute and cuddly cat activity.... I mean for crying out loud @Revoltingest likes cats...that right there should tell you something....cats are EVIL!!!!!

 

[ChristineM]

which is exactly what I'd expect an evil cat minion to say.....and not scared....jealous......if a bear scratched you or bit you...you'd screen, cry and complain and then call the police/rangers/game warden.... cat does it...you think its cute....

The bear doth protest too much, methinks

Never wrap cheese (or truffle) in cling film/cellophane etc. It needs to breathe.

And gutter brain. Best compliment you have ever given me, in fact I think the only compliment you have ever given me

What's the best way to keep it?

 

[ChristineM]

What's the best way to keep it?

Wrap it in baking parchment or greaseproof paper. Keep it in the fresher compartment of the fridge.

It keeps longer and reduced the white mold that can grow on cheese.

BTW. The mold is edible but alters thae taste of the cheese

The international tourists are fine, I was talking to 3 German girls at the river when I was walking the dog this morning, they were nice. It's the rude Sydney yuppies I hate, they think the locals are here as their personal slaves.
