“To award prizes is to attempt to control the course of another man’s work. It is a bid to have him do what you will approve. It affects not only the one who wins the award, but all those who in any measure strive for it. It is an effort to stop evolution, to hold things back to the plane of your judgment. It is a check on a great adventure of human life. It is negative to the idea that youth should go forward. It is for the coming generation to judge you, not for you to judge it. So it must happen, whether you will it or not.”

- @sambot I used the videos here to learn: http://www.knittinghelp.com/videos/learn-to-knit in reply to sambot #

- @sambot Also, I made sure my first project was long and simple- I made a 6-7 foot long scarf. It's like a timeline of knitting skillups. in reply to sambot #
- After much digging, I finally freed my car from the snow and made it to work; only to discover that hardly anyone else showed up! #
- @ptreadwell happicow was fabulous enough to shovel a path from my car to the street, but it takes a long time to get 18" of snow off a car. in reply to ptreadwell #

- I think the Master Cleanse fast is causing sensory hallucinations- I keep smelling cinnamon buns. The cinnamon buns are a lie. #
- First spicy lemonade impressions: Alright. A bit underwhelmed. #
- @slithy_toves It's a grand experiment, and hallucinations are just data. I would mind more if I was imagining horrible smells, honestly. in reply to slithy_toves #
