Wow, this is shocking... I feel down sometimes, but I'm not a multimillionaire with a Hollywood resume longer than my arm!

I guess depression can strike anyone and it should not be stigmatized.

Can someone recommend a Siamese Cat breeder?

Preferably in the NYC metro area, but would consider getting one shipped by an ultra-reputable dealer.

Different types of chlorophyll cause the different colors. That occurs probably because the new growths haven't gotten the light exposure the mature areas have.

Yesterday I was the victim of a sudden and unprovoked attack!

The Orchids (with the assistance of a few carnivorous plants, lilies and a bat plant...I'm still investigating the cat) took over my dresser! They're taking over my entire apartment!

If it is viable, send it to a flasking service. Don't try it by yourself you'll likely just end up with a flask of fungi.

I didn't mean to criticize him, he's a very, very nice person. Just he's a designer and has to travel a lot to places around the world for long periods of time to work on them.
