I don't think it's just the time difference. The whole experience just wears on me... I have to get to the airport 2 hrs before the flight to get my tools on board, then you have to hang around while they ask you what screwdrivers are for, then they steal half your stuff, then you have to walk twelve miles because invariably your plane leaves from the furthest most gate from whatever airline counter you check in. Then you get groped and xray'd and the shoes off and then you get that laugh break when some old waspy woman argues about removing her shoes and gets dragged to the green room. then you have to try to find an empty power outlet and then have to ***there an hour and a half listening to the tsa warnings about bags that are left behind being destroyed. then when they make the announce for loading everyone jumps up and forms a tight knot in front of the door so that it takes four times longer for the people that are supposed to be boarding to fight their way past them and then you finally get in and you are sitting next to a sick person that coughs on you for four hours and insists on trying to talk to you. then everyone fights to get off the plane before the wheels hit the runway then it's another ten mile hike to get your bags then lug them to the car rental bus for a mile drive to walk some more to get your car and then drive another hour to get to the hotel...
so when clients ask me why we charge our normal hourly rate for travel after an eight hour long nightmare, I stare at them bleary eyed and calmly ask them when was the last time they were at an airport in america.
Edit: and don't even get me started on florida...that culture will wear you down to the nubs in about half an hour
are your ring finger and index finger the same length?
no, and I hate to ask: why?
Edit: sorry, thought you said middle, not exactly the same, at least by view, I'd have to go find a measuring device to measure them both, and on both hands.

Oh you better get a longer loop if you want to have music until I actually respond.
I had a friend in high school that didn't like coffee so he drank Jolt Cola instead. It's slogo was "All the sugar and twice the caffeine!!!"
Jolt cola... memories of that day we went to six flags all hopped up on sugar and caffeine... Have to keep dosing when you're waiting in line or else the effects start to wear off...
Get there early enough and you're all over those rides though!
and my friend was canadian where they didn't allow such things as Jolt Cola so it was real special for him... I guess.... Canadian weirdos... his friend was quite proud of his collection of "illegal" vhs tapes of R rated movies like "Faces of Death"... (The concept of not being able to just go to a video store and rent them had to be explained to me at great length.)
SO let me see if I have this straight... you can't watch rated R movies, you can't buy alcohol over a certain proof, you can only buy beer until midnight, gasoline is ten dollars for a cup full, your milk comes in plastic bags and all of your groceries are miniature sized!?...
All I could think of was why in the hell haven't we nuked canada yet?
their canadian minds were completely blown away by our grocery stores and our giant boxes of cereal and 2 liter cola bottles...
Our smuggling operation started immediately... cigarettes, high octane booze hidden in windshield washer fluid bottles, jolt cola...
I remember being questioned only once crossing the border because I had a package of Drum brand cigarette tobacco on my dashboard that the canadian border agent was suspicious of...
I gladly opened it for him and he inspected it suspiciously...It's cigarette tobacco! I said laughing "well... how do I know you don't have marijuana mixed in there?"
because I'm driving around with it on my dashboard!
all right then move along..
meanwhile the trunk and back seats were heavily over loaded with contraband...
I think the key to my success was none of it ever bothered me enough to be nervous about...it's friggen R rated movies and cola for christsakes!!!
you were a drug smuggler all the while. I should've known. ***!
mornings.
Well... I thought it would be suspicious if we tried to smuggle fifty bottles of windshield wash fluid across the border at one time, I mean what's the cover story? the autoparts store you work for ran out and they sent you to buffalo to get more?
no, so we took a cornucopia approach and just smuggled the right amount of all the everything across lol.
it was like... an international grocery shopping and delivery service.
it was ridiculous. one of our biggest money makers was cereal.
edit: and cigarettes, you wouldn't believe what they used to charge a pack for those in canadia...

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.
Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
