    Am I crazy?

    OK...don't answer that. hehe :rolleyes: :crazy: Warning...long rant. I just want to know if I am the only one who is horrified by some of the "toys" being made for small children (poisoned Chinese toys aside) and especially being pushed this Christmas. My coworkers think I am crazy...

    Does essential oil go bad?

    I got a couple ounces of Clove oil off of ebay. It's my favorite smell (lillies are a close second) and it smells... like someone soaked an old leather jacket in it before they bottled it up. I put some in my reed diffuser and it smells HORRIBLE! The thing is, the a few hours later my room is...

    Free Sundew Seeds (Possibly D. Anglica)

    OFFER CLOSED I have about 50+ flowers worth of an unknown sundew seed - all seeds have either been recently harvested or will be harvested within the next week or so. With that said, I've received a number of freebie giveaways here in the past six months so it's time I return the favor...

    First Terrarium, and an issue

    Hey, I recently constructed a terrarium in a 20 gallon tank. I noticed a horrible stink in one of my pots, but only when I flushed it, and it seemed to be at the bottom. I was told on another part of the forum that this was hydrogen sulfide, and indicated anoxia in the lower portion of the pot...

    Emergency - Flooding Rains, Tornadoes, Lighting, etc.

    I need your help, I can't make this decision. I came home from school after being hoisted up in a dangerous room, I checked on my carnivores and none were knocked over but the soil thoroughly flooded as well as part of the house since my brother needed to eat a muffin and talk on the phone...

    We lost PJ last night

    I am so heartbroken. PJ (mom to Scubee) passed away last night. I found her in her sleeping pouch. I don't know what happened. She just turned a year old on April-9th, I haven't even had her for a year. I am so upset. Shady (her mate, Scubee's dad) barked all night long cause he was calling for...

    I'm not having a good day today. Read this if you have kids

    One of my old friends died at about 2 am last night. He was with my other friends ex-boyfriend, who had been drinking all day at school, going about 100 MPH and they crashed. They LEFT my friend there and eventually someone found him and called an ambulance. His lungs collapsed in the ICU. My...

    Your first carnivorous plant.

    I love making these topics, and, for some reason, they are popular. Indeed, I'll probably get as much posts as I did on CPUK by doing this! What was your first plant? I ordered VFT Seeds before a Pinguicula primuliflora, but, the primuliflora arrived first. I was doing a science project on...

    Battle Cry?

    Yeah, just the other night I was reading the newest edition of RollingStone when I came upon the article Teenage Holy War. I decided to read it and I was horrified. It's basically a bunch of Christian Radicals that are trying to claim a Christian Jihad on all of the world that they do not find...

    What a Sad Day...Tech shooting

    News is conflicting and sketchy but apparently one (or two) shooters went into dorms and classrooms at VA Tech and killed 22 people. :( I keep reading different reports that say different things so later today information might be more solid. What a terrible, terrible thing! Its being...

    OMG! Rabies

    Because I'm currently reading the Stephen King Novel, Cujo, I decided to do some research on rabies. I did my searches on wikipedia, google, home encyclopedias, and finally youtube. that is where I found the most disturbing information and pictures/videos that truly shows me how horrible it is...

    Light Burn?

    I know this is going to sound absolutely insane, but I bought a new light for my terrarium... a Sylvania Daylight 13 watt Compact Fluorescent bulb (because they didn't have anything bigger) I have it roughly 6 inches from the plants, and another grow light (Which Grrr has survived on the last 6...

    My poor Aunt :o( *Warning! Graphic text*

    My aunt and uncle recently moved to Arizona from California. They went back to California on Saturday of last week to clean up some more in the house they had there so they can sell it. On Sunday, my Aunt was in the backyard gardening and their next door neighbor said hello, my Aunt stood up and...

    New Hardware

    As I've saved up a bit of money and have taken up a side job, I decided that now would be a good time to get some new computer parts I've been wanting as some of what I have is a bit lacking. I'm all about juicing my old hardware to the max, but old tech can only be pushed so far. Here's what...
