    90 as a low? I'm guessing you were on the other side of the mountains then? Eastern WA gets a lot warmer than we do over here in the western half.

    In Washington we call 75 a heatwave. You know what we call 90? The apocalypse.

    My best friend, my dog Amigo passed away today.

    I'm so sorry. :( You did the right thing. God allows us to kill healthy animals for food, so I don't see how anyone could make an argument that it's wrong to put a suffering animal out of its misery. A few years ago I used to have an incredibly sweet dog named Fezzik, who loved everyone and...

    It doesn't seem possible (seriously, where did the time go?), but the weather is insisting that it is. Not that long ago I had to wear shoes when I walked to my mailbox because the asphalt would burn my feet otherwise. Today I felt like I needed a heavy jacket.

    To Fat To Kill

    I'm not saying I agree with the time it takes for the sentence to actually be carried out, but after sentencing comes the appeals. Capital punishment is already a touchy subject (even more so in light of all the people who's convictions have been overturned), and a lot of people wouldn't stand...

    movie quotes

    Prince: I was raised to be charming, not sincere. ~Into the Woods Dave: Not only am I incredibly good looking, I'm also incredibly rich, and incredibly nice. Sam: And incredibly married. Diane: Well, I am sorry to hear that. Dave: You are? Diane: Yes. I was hoping to reject you based solely...

    To Fat To Kill

    It can take quite a long time to go through the all the steps that must be completed before carrying out capital punishment. No, that's because we're better than that. We should never rejoice in anyone's death, and I don't believe that we should intentionally make it more painful that it has...

    So my brothers leaving for college today.

    I believe that's fairly common among eighteen year olds, especially before they go off to college. It's no excuse for being rude, but I do think it's fairly common and that he will grow out of it quickly. Also, I've been in a couple classes with some disrespectful students, and consequences...

    True enough. :) It can be rather difficult, but it's really helpful. It's the only reason I've finished stories longer than like, three pages. I've been meaning to check out The Civil Wars for awhile, but I keep forgetting. Jon Foreman is pretty great. ^.^ So is Anberlin, Secret Garden, Enya...

    Hello, and Other Various Greetings

    I saw your username and my first thought was "Citizen Kane." I have a feeling that's what's going to come to mind whenever I see you around here... Anyway, welcome!

    I haven't listened to a ton of stuff by any of those, but I've really liked the Coldplay and The Fray songs I've heard. I also like Nickelback, Skillet, Coeur de Pirate, The Wanted, Katy Perry, Lady Antebellum, Flyleaf... No. I never said I was a good writer. :P Mm, I would suggest you try...

    All kinds of music. You could name basically any category of music, and I could name a song I like from that category. Even rap, though I still hold that rap itself isn't actually music, it's just a presentation of lyrics. As for writing, I've written fiction stories (usually realistic...

    Have you ever been in a long distance relationship?

    I have never been in a long distance relationship of the romantic variety, but my best friend lives two thousand miles away, so I have a bit of an idea of what it's like for someone you love to be far away. And it's crazy hard. Personally, I would rather not become involved in a long distance...

    Smoking. Here's the deal...

    I don't really consider smoking to be wrong on a religious level. I think that it's incredibly rude of people to smoke around non-smokers; I consider smoking to be a disgusting, money-wasting habit; and personally, I don't support smoking, but I don't believe smokers are bad people.

    Hey, I'm Ari Elttaes. I stumbled across this place while looking for a new forum to frequent. I'm a Christian and a theatre freak, and I prefer to spell things the British way. I like to write stories, I love rain, and I adore music. Looking forward to getting to know you people. :)
