What is this thread all about?
Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
:D
Long story. The short version: It's no coincidence that the Gospel of John starts: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
Language is a funny and mysterious thing, a human thing, a heavenly thing and a divine thing.
Now, to other matters.
Yesterday, as the daytime temperature hit 23 degrees (fahr 73) for the first time this spring (first time in about 8 months, since April), and the iceberg lettuces are flowing again (we had a shortage a while back, where they cost 3x normal), I whipped up a packet mince taco meat dish, and we ate tacos (australian style?), with hard shells (corn based) and soft wraps (tortillas, flour based). Meat, tasty cheese, small diced tomato and shredded iceberg lettuce. Salsa sauce for sauce.
A perennial favorite here that requires summery warm weather.
Gonna be 25 today, then thunder storms probably in the evening with a drop in temperature to follow.
Melbourne is famous (for melbournites and other Aussies who know) for having unpredictable and erratic weather. "Four seasons in one day" is not an uncommon turn of phrase around here.
But sometimes the summer is really nutso. We might have a hot wave for 3 or 4 days where it is 95 (fahr) then a thunderstorm where the next day the daytime high is 62 fahr for a bunch of days.
A few summers back, it was rinse and repeat every two weeks about 5 times over the summer. Really hot to rather chilly in 24 hours.
In case you were wondering....

It's a big country. The Snowy Mountains are part of a mountain range (the Great Dividing Range) that stretches for thousands of miles. When the GDR reaches the more temperate areas, the mountains get lots of snow in winter months. Lots of skiing and snowboarding, etc.
Up north, we stretch into the tropics. We have massive deserts, which make anything in the US look peewee by comparison. Fertile South Western regions. We got it all, really. But mostly a lot of dry, arid desert.
