About meHello! Im a University student, studying my studies on mushrooms and plant diseases... And to keep me sane I do snake handling(yes venomous ones, yes I have a permit) Im on stand by to Pretoria east where I live, (i.e. Im the one they call in a flat panic if they find a reptile in the house/garden)... Also to keep me sane I read! At the moment fantasy/sci-fi is my meat of choice...but It varies with the weather :) I have a real need for believable characters that you can love (or hate), to get me interested, but once In hooked I devour books :) ... and that's me in a nut shell...

About my libraryUnder construction...
Im unfortunatly one of those peoples who borrows ALOT of the books I read from other peoples...
So my collection is spartan at best, but Im working on it!
Mostly I read Sci-Fi and Fantasy books, but enjoy a good story where ever it may be found... I tend to borrow books because I only buy books I feel I will read again, if I dont enjoy it so much, I can just give it back to its owner... no sale...

LocationPretoria, South Africa... Help!

Hi Taliska, glad to make your acquaintance. *** wags ;-) ***
I have rabbits. They stay in the house mostly (they're very old) - and they potty-trained very well!
Hi!

Thank you. I took the profile picture in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park (old name: Kalahari Gemsbok Park). Your picture is stunning too. Is it your cat?
I found a penny today
just laying on the ground.
But it's not just a penny
this little coin I've found.

Found pennies come from heaven,
that's what my Grandpa told me.
He said angels toss them down.
Oh, how I love that story.

He said when an angel missed you,
they toss a penny down.
Sometimes just to cheer you up,
make a smile out of a frown.

So don't pass by that penny
when you're feeling blue.
It may be a penny from heaven
that an angel has tossed to you.

Tee-hee! I got SOAKED! Took 'til today to dry out my shoes, and the clothes in the wash-basket are still wet. And the inside of the computer bag is damp too, so we can look forward to digital muf. But both MacHinery and I sem to be OK! Many thanks for the TLC and concern.

Well, anyone who can wrangle snakes and survive zombies adequately is all right with me...

;p
Hey Taliska:

I went through this about a month ago because I don't use Flickr or MySpace, etc., and the only alternative to posting on a different website than LT is to post the picture to LT's Wiki, then refer to the LT wiki website's picture. I don't think they designed Wiki for people to put personal pictures for posts, but I only put one and nobody complained and it worked.

Welcome to the GD, and thanks for posting the never ending story thread... great idea, I can't wait to see where it goes...
Hi again. Just for fun, go to the llama link at #54 in the "How did you get to the Green Dragon" thread. I can't help thinking there's a SPOOF presentation hiding in there! -- h
Is that your kitty? What is his name? Welcome the the GD Taliska! Vanye 8^)
