life without diet coke? it's great.
i get pangs of diet coke lust about once or twice a week, really, mostly when i'm buying a snack at the bakery in the late afternoon, and see those small bottles of coke zero in the fridges behind the counter there, or when i'm buying a drink during my train trips; the soft drink machines of deutsche bahn don't offer much for people avoiding soft drinks, ha.
generally, if i'm in dire need of carbonation, i get an apple juice and sparkling water drink, and that's alright, too, as i simply can't drink as much of that as of diet coke, back in the day. so it's just a little, usually.
this past month, i've been drinking lots and lots of water: easily an impressive 3 litres per workday, which supposedly is good for me in oh so many ways.
so quitting my coke habit has been far easier than expected. yay. speaking of habits: left work at 8pm today, 2 hours later than planned. nay.

Psalm 65
10 Du suchst das Land heim und bewässerst es und machst es sehr reich;
Gottes Brünnlein hat Wasser die Fülle. Du lässest ihr Getreide gut geraten;
denn so baust du das Land.
11 Du tränkst seine Furchen und feuchtest seine Schollen;
mit Regen machst du es weich und segnest sein Gewächs.
12 Du krönst das Jahr mit deinem Gut, und deine Fußtapfen triefen von Segen.
13 Es triefen auch die Auen in der Steppe, und die Hügel sind erfüllt mit Jubel.
14 Die Anger sind voller Schafe, und die Auen stehen dick mit Korn, daß man jauchzet und singet.
Psalms 65
9. You visit the earth and cause it to overflow;
You greatly enrich it;
The stream of God is full of water;
You prepare their grain, for thus You prepare the earth.
10. You water its furrows abundantly,
You settle its ridges,
You soften it with showers,
You bless its growth.
11. You have crowned the year with Your bounty,
And Your paths drip with fatness.
12. The pastures of the wilderness drip,
And the hills gird themselves with rejoicing.
13. The meadows are clothed with flocks
And the valleys are covered with grain;
They shout for joy, yes, they sing.

Up until 1955, this building housed the headquarters of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC). It is now the Shanghai Pudond Development Bank.
"By 1874, HSBC's business had grown so much that the existing premises was becoming cramped. The bank then purchased the Foreign Club, a three storey building at number 12, the Bund, south of the Customs House, for 60,000 taels of silver.
In 1912, the bank made further acquisitions at number 10 and number 11, the Bund, and began construction of the new building. Construction began on 5 May 1921, with the dome capped off on 23 June 1923. According to contemporary press reports, at the time of construction the bank hired feng shui masters to select the time and direction of the first excavation. In accordance with Chinese tradition, coins from around the world were buried in the foundations. Specially minted coins were placed in dark recesses of the building to ward off spirits." (Wikipedia)

The Grand Pier is a pier in Weston-super-Mare, North Somerset, England. It is situated on the Bristol Channel approximately 18 miles (29 km) south west of Bristol.
The pier is privately-owned and is one of three piers in the town together with Birnbeck Pier, which stands derelict awaiting possible restoration and the much shorter SeaQuarium aquarium built towards the south end of the seafront. It is supported by 600 iron piles, and is 400 metres (1,300 ft) long. It has been damaged by fire on two occasions in 1930 and 2008.
Following the latter fire, which completely destroyed the pavilion, the pier was rebuilt at a cost of £39 million and reopened on 23 October 2010.

Hidden: Find four mule shoes. What is missing?
* This building is one of nine locations where the post office has been since 1919
* The mules carried the mail from Arcadia in 1919 and were watered at Buck Lake
* The mules bolted and the wagon, mail and mules went to the bottom of the lake.
It was supposed to have been a routine mail delivery. After all, on a regular basis mail was transported from Arcadia to Lake Placid and back, two days each way. It took a couple of mules pulling a wagon to get the job done.
Along the way, and about four miles south of the Lake Placid Post Office, small Buck Lake was a great place to stop and let the mules get a drink. So, there wasn't any reason for the mail carrier to be concerned. But on this particular day, something frightened the mules and they bolted. The whole rig, the mail and the mules all plunged into the lake that reaches over 60 feet at its deepest. Divers say what remains of that accident lies at the bottom of Buck Lake to this day.
This mural commemorates that tragic event. But it also honors John J. Hoy, Lake Placid Postmaster for 19 years, beginning in 1953. He saw the first canceling machine arrive and a year later, a postage meter was installed. He served as president of the National Association of Postmasters, Florida Chapter. Daisy Shackelford was his postal clerk.
Our first post office was built in a day. On February 5, 1919, folks brought their drygoods boxes and constructed the office over by the railroad depot. Two years later, Angus McAuley got the post office moved into his store and became postmaster. The following year, in February, postal service as handled out of the Arcade Hotel at Interlake Boulevard and Main Street.
While Hoy was postmaster, the building that hosts this mural was built in 1963. The Old Post Office building now houses the Greater Lake Placid Chamber of Commerce Welcome Center, the Mural Society, and the Lake Placid Board of Realtors.
