Tidus44 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 remontado; one who has renounced civilization and gone to live in the wild. After reading through a few news sites and a couple of web forums, becoming a remontado is becoming more and more appealing.

Tidus44 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014    remontado; one who has renounced civilization and gone to live in the wild. After reading through a few news sites and a couple of web forums, becoming a remontado is becoming more and more appealing.Just a speculative guess but it may be that a remontado is just a Misanthrope - someone who dislikes other people Had to think about it for a while, but nope, not a misanthrope. I don't think I could have done my career for as long as I have if I didn't like people for one thing.I was thinking more recluse; a person who lives away from society voluntarily as a means to get away from whatever it is they find unpleasant or unacceptable. Sort of feeling weary of the current zeitgeist (the general intellectual, moral, and cultural climate of a period of time).There is a decommissioned GATR site along the old McGill Fence that the current owner is looking to sell. It has 5 stories underground. I'm thinking that has piqued my imagination more than anything. Easy to dream, hard to put into reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tidus44 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 tramontane; Pertaining to something foreign or strange, also a strong polar wind from the north. Friday saw 80kph winds and the temperature drop from the mid 20s to just above freezing. Saturday the wind slowed and there was some rain and a small amount of snowfall last night. At 6 am Sunday it was 1C. Retiring to Belize looks better every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though the self involvement, lack of perspective, ingratitude coupled with historical amnesia (with a few notable exceptions) makes my prior egression from the debates forum seem to be a rational decision.http://i.imgur.com/MDN2XFg.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
