I just spent the last 24hrs reading a manhwa. No eating, no sleeping. I feel terrible now for letting that time pass me by. Argh I lose my senses when I'm working graveyard shift, and I forget the date and time and the things I usually in the day. Argh. Grrrr. Oh well. No use crying over spilt milk. Must keep swimming.

At first I thought you read a manual for 24 hours, but then I googled. Manhwa is Korean version for manga.

That must have been a very good (and very long) story.

Lol yes and Manhwa's are fully coloured. The art is nice too much better than mangas actually. The story was so so but I got hooked. Too bad the ending wasn't satisfying grr. It was so long.

The ending belongs to the one who tells the story.

Though I do remember being somewhat disappointed when I got to the end of the Rideback series.

By itself: not really. Love it with a little bit of soy sauce, but I read or heard that most of the time the stuff you get from restaurants isn't real wasabi. Instead, it's horseradish, as horseradish grows faster and is cheaper to produce.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_storm_of_1859

On September 1–2, 1859, one of the largest recorded geomagnetic storms (as recorded by ground-based magnetometers) occurred. Aurorae were seen around the world, those in the northern hemisphere as far south as the Caribbean; those over the Rocky Mountains in the U.S. were so bright that their glow awoke gold miners, who began preparing breakfast because they thought it was morning. People in the northeastern United States could read a newspaper by the aurora's light. The aurora was visible as far from the poles as Sub-Saharan Africa (Senegal, Mauritania, perhaps Monrovia, Liberia), Monterrey and Tampico in Mexico, Queensland, Cuba, Hawaii, and even at lower latitudes very close to the equator, such as in Colombia.

Actually there is very little Wasabi that is real Wasabi, and the real stuff is very, very expensive. If it is served in a restaurant or comes out of a squeeze tube, it is horseradish.

I saw a flicker of northern lights earlier this year :)
Mind you, it wasn't those magnificent banners you see in photo contests, but it's still a beautiful sight :)

Nope. Only seen it three-four times.
Too much light pollution.
Also even though it can appear down south, most of it is north of the arctic circle

Isn't this sad? Star gazing is unheard of here due to light pollution. I came across something not long ago that said that some 90+% of people across the world can't see some of the major constellations or the Milky Way due to light pollution. It was a real treat to be able to view both last year in Maui. Flipping beautiful.

Yeah, I want to see more of it!
- That many?! eeek.
Well, come to think of it I can't see the milky way here either, but I can see Orion and Cassiopeia without problems.

- When I was in Scotland we camped at a beach, and after pitching our tent a bit away from a small city in the dark, we laid on our backs and watched the sky until it got too cold. It was amazing. Lots and lots of stars.

I do, from what I've had of it. It's weird eating a food that requires its own breathing technique, though xD

I like watching the stars and moonlight and hearing the coyotes... and then hunting the coyotes by the moon and starlight. ^u^
