AaronOfMpls Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 endorheic basin -- a drainage basin that doesn't drain to any oceans, or to anyplace else outside. Water that flows in gets out only through evaporation into the air or seepage through the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tidus44 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 A nice example of to naufragate - to wreck or to cause a wreck. The most amazing thing was how calm the driver seemed to be as he got out and walked around. I've been at collisions involving two rusty old trucks barely worth driving and the drivers were yelling insults at each other the whole time we were getting them out of their wrecks, while the paramedics treated them and only stopped when the ambulance doors closed to take one to the hospital.

Tidus44 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 oeillade: an amorous glance; ogle. Best afternoon for a long time. Walking the dogs this pm and felt (yes felt) the most wonderful sound. Walked under the freeway towards the airport and watched a Mustang, a Corsair and a Harvard II doing touch and goes and flying in various formations. The Corsair sounded awesome (I had forgotten how good), but the three together were better than music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidus44 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 metutials - A small, irritating chore which must be performed before other work can commence. Ever notice how life seems to be just full of these little chores? Like punching the branchman in the back of the head to get him to stop using a fog pattern and go to straight stream.
