Transmitted light is made up of a of colors. The longest wavelengths of light are on the red end of the spectrum and the shortest wavelengths are on the blue/violet end of the spectrum. When sunlight enters our atmosphere it crashes into oxygen and nitrogen. The color with the shorter wavelength is spread more by this crash. Because violet and blue are the shortest of the wavelengths the sky appears to be violet / blue. But your eyes are more sensitive to blue light than they are violet light, so we see the sky as blue.


cats and dogs

The phrase is supposed to have originated in England in the 17th century when city streets were filthy and heavy rain would occasionally carry along dead animals.

The idea that seeing dead cats and dogs floating by in storms would cause people to coin this phrase is just about believable. People may not have actually thought the animals had come from the sky, but might have made up the phrase to suit the occasion.

A KCALB is a rare breed. If you see one, it's considered good luck. If you feed one after dark, it will multiply.

Dear kcalb,

What do women really want?

hmmm, do I really want to answer this? lol. I'll take a shot at it based on my own trek into the world of women. I'd have to say the one thing women want is to be independent. The ability to stand up and say what they want and to be heard by all, not just men. Now, take it a step further and go down the road of the sexual nature of women. Guys have to remember they don't think like us when it comes to things like "what turns us on". It's a different ball game. Pay attention to your woman, or someone else will.

Dear Kcalb,

I work with an Indian lady. The crazy Punjabi we both work with says she's from southern India, don't exactly recall which state but it's not Tamil-Nadu, maybe Andra Pradesh.

She is very dark complected, almost jet black. She has a wonderful figure, a dignified poise, is unflappable and intelligent. I love to listen to her talk and like her presence. Of course watching her butt is an invigorating experience as well.

I am concerned that while she is in her forties and probably experienced with Indian men she might find my pale skin, British features, green eyes and clipped privates a bit tough to take. I doubt that there are many guys who look like me in Southern India, though I could possibly pass as an Afghan or inhabitant of the Causcasus mountains in a dark alley.

So how does one court a person from those distant exotic climes? Any clues you can deliver from your myriad experiences and past would be most helpful.

Gene!! Strike up a conversation. Keep it light, see if she responds favorably and do the sweetest thing ever...the..."I was wondering if you would care to have dinner with me Friday night?" And see what she says.

Lisa, Lisa... I'm crestfallen. I'd so hoped you'd be jealous... not supportive.

She's a nice lady. I'll ask her to lunch, if I can get her away from her desk. She's like the rest of us... driven.

Aww...I missed that subliminal message in there!

She might be driven, but everyone needs a short break once in a while.

I was just joking around about the token Indian thing lol. I randomly make fun of own kind occasionally, so there's no dispute here . Also my post was based on my experiences and from what I was taught, which may not hold true for all Indians

BTW, have you already offered to take her out yet?

She was older than me, was married to the same guy since she was a teen, and left due to his neglect to her as a partner and physical abuse towards her well being. Not saying jojo is wrong, but there are some that will take a chance on finding a relationship outside their own race. All it takes is for you to be you, not witty, not suave, not anything other than you. She has already seen the "work" guy, but never seen the "after work" guy. If both of you are comfortable in being around each other during work, it's pretty safe to say she will like to have company outside of work. But, you never know until you ask. As I told our young YW couple that just got married, it all started as 50% chance, the rest was up to them. Take your chance. As for the butt wiggle issue, rock on with your bad self!


Each company has its own priority of how things should be packaged since they do not operate under the same name. Take a look at a package of hot dogs and see how much it weighs most likely it weighs a pound. Having it weigh this much and the size of the package make it a great size to store in the fridge without taking up too much space. Bread companies have a problem of how there pans are set up. The reason that a dozen is such a traditional bread company number is that it can be set up in as a pan with 3X4 or 4X3. When it comes to pans and ovens, they are looking for a well oiled machine and a pattern that works to save time and power. Ten buns means it must be 2 rows of 5, which simply doesn't always work. The 3X4 rectangle is more convenient.
Truth is, I'm convinced Indians dating outside their race would be more common among Christians. If Gene's is of that religion, and his love interest is also of that religion, it just might make it that much easier for him to ask her out. If she's Hindu or Muslim, it might take ALOT of persistence to get her interest, especially if she's got that old country mindset. It's not impossible though. Just telling it like it is.
