| Don't you just hate it when you are visiting a page, click on a | |

| original web site nowhere to be seen? It's like shooting their | |
| own foot. How difficult is for web designers to add a | |
| target="_blank" to their links???? (Does not apply for gopher. | |
| It doesn't have such function... yet. Then again, you can just | |
| right-click on it... XD ) | |

| Q. When do you use i.e., and when do you use e.g.? | |
| A. i.e. = id est (That is, in English). Used in place of | |
| "in other words," or "it/that is". It specifies or makes | |
| more clear. | |
| E.g. = exempli gratia (For the sake of an example, in English) | |
| used in expressions similar to "including", when you are not | |
| intending to list everything that is being discussed. | |

| When we jumped into Sicily, the units became separated, and I | |
| couldn't find anyone. Eventually I stumbled across two colonels, | |
| a major, three captains, two lieutenants, and one rifleman, and | |
| we secured the bridge. Never in the history of war have so few | |
| been led by so many. | |

| The bone-chilling scream split the warm summer night in two, the | |
| first half being before the scream when it was fairly balmy and | |
| calm and pleasant, the second half still balmy and quite pleasant | |
| for those who hadn't heard the scream at all, but not calm or balmy | |
| or even very nice for those who did hear the scream, discounting | |
| the little period of time during the actual scream itself when your | |
| ears might have been hearing it but your brain wasn't reacting yet | |
| to let you know. | |

| Steady movement is more important than speed, much of the time. | |
| So long as there is a regular progression of stimuli to get your | |
| mental hooks into, there is room for lateral movement. Once this | |
| begins, its rate is a matter of discretion. | |

| "I wonder", he said to himself, "what's in a book while it's closed. | |
| Oh, I know it's full of letters printed on paper, but all the same, | |

| whole story with people I don't know yet and all kinds of adventures | |
| and battles." | |

| And one hour back! As a side note, the assignment wasn't that bad. | |
| I actually enjoyed it... maybe a little too much. I ended up | |

| It has been over a month since the last time I posted something | |
| here, I know. Too many things going on too fast in my life. I'm | |
| actually fed up with all the bullshit that social media posts these | |
| days, so I did what any person willing to keep their sanity would do: | |
| Remove themselves from it for some time. | |
| I have also been working on my (professional-like) site, if you want | |
| to check it out, it's at itaustraliagroup.com. As for the personal | |
| one, I will be setting it up at lherrera.sdf.org soon-ish, hehe. | |
