Quick question. What is growing in YOUR garden this season?

TristanNuvo comments on Aug 23, 2018:

I grow Peperoncini rossi. They are an Italian pepper. Great flavor, and not to hot, I use them in quite a few dishes. I also grow sweet basil. They both grow well here in Florida.

@Cassiopeia My grandmother used to make the best caprese salad. She grew her own Italian plum tomatoes, and Basil, and used real buffalo motz. I can a good one myself, but not as good as she did. And yes, I love basil, nothing like picket fresh basil.

Here are a few pics from the homeless shelter that I volunteer at. This place houses around 250 people. their goal is to get people back on their feet. There are computer rooms where people can apply for benifits, apply for jobs etc. There are quite a few groups that bring dinner every night. ...

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 24, 2018:

@zeuser Thank you. I was once homeless myself, so I know what it's like. People helped get me back on my feet, and never asked for anything in return, they just wanted me to be OK. So I like to pass that along when I can.

What music could you...?

@BlueWave There a few different kinds from all over the world. Although I do like the common green ones, the ones I grow are the Italian Rossi. They are a little bigger, they are not that hot but have a great flavor. And yes they thrive in warmer climate, so they would grow well for you in Louisiana.

I do agree for the most part, especially the north Atlantic. But we do have some great ones here in the Gulf, like Grouper, Stone crabs, and oisters. We have good lobster here as well. It's not a match for Main lobster, but they are a lot bigger, and still pretty good.

I do like a good bouillabaisse as well. Another that is quite simillar is a dish called Cioppino. It's an Italian dish. One thing I like about both of them is that it's way open to use what ever kind of seafood you like.

@birdingnut I've always been one to try new foods, I'll try just about anything once. there have been both some that I didn't like, and some I absolutely loved. That's why I like to have an opened mind when it comes to food. We have a great Asian market just down the street a ways, I'll see if I cant find all of the ingredients to make some, and give it a try.

Piece2YourPuzzle comments on Aug 23, 2018:

I can say that as a songwriter I have ideas about songs, or even just random dreams while I'm going to bed, and then after I wake up they're gone. I can't remember a damn thing about them. It even happens when I'm awake sometimes. I'll have an idea and then I'll do even just the simplest thing ...

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 24, 2018:

I used to do the same. It seems that sometimes I am most creative when i'm falling asleep, and I always used to think, meh, I'll record it tomorrow, and I always forget when I wake up. I've learned to grab my guitar, sleepy or not, and just write the basics. It took some practicing though.

Keeping my priorities straight.

I'm prone to cotton Oxford shirts myself.

Which do you like better, Star Wars or Star Trek? Why?

TristanNuvo comments on Aug 22, 2018:

I like them both just as much. But if I had to pick one it would be Battlester Galactica. The 2000's version, not the 70's version.

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 23, 2018:

@jc2018 If you ever get to see it you'll love it. It's nothing like the 70's version. One of the best shows IMHO.

So if you get up every morning and tell your self that today is going to be a good day. Over an extended amount of time, you would reprogram your brain. So even if things were not going so well you would find a positive aspect of the day.

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 19, 2018:

Actually, yes. my worst part of any day is when I wake up, I'm usually depressed, even suicidal for a while. Part of my therapy(I have schizoaffective disorder) is that when I have those thoughts, I've tried to use some tools that I've learned to combat that. if you practice something long enough, you will eventually find that it starts to come quite naturally. Honestly though, it took baby steps for me and a lot of time, So yes, I agree with you yes,you can teach yourself to just that.

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 19, 2018:

@ForTheBirds I was lucky, i wasn't brought up in a religious household, so I've been a non-believer all of my life. I never gave it much thought to it until places like Youtube came around, and there were all these debates about a belief, or non-belief that got my interest. So just out of curiosity I read the whole book. All I could think of was, this is the stupidest thing ever written down. And then dumbfounded at the notion that people actually believe this crap.

If a vegan restaurant opened in your area, would you go to it?

patchoullijulie comments on Aug 17, 2018:

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 17, 2018:

I agree. While I am a meat eater, I do love some vegitarian dishes. And being a former chef, I always made it a point to have a few vegitarian dishes on any menue I've made. I will gladly try to make their dining experience well. but I really don't like manic advocates from either side. Just eat what you like. And I've always tried to make that comfortable for all.

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 15, 2018:

Same. Even though layne is a hard act to follow, and i agree. one of my favorite singer. But I do have to say that I actually like some of the songs with the revamp. William DuVall, doesn't hold a candle to Layne, but he harmonizes with Jerry weal well. https://youtu.be/PRTpxOwD5LA

I miss them both! Great band.

I agree.

ballou comments on Aug 15, 2018:

Love this band! I'm glad that Jerry choose to continue the band, although not the same without Layne. His voice was so powerful. I was in Washington State last year and AIC was always on my playlist. https://youtu.be/O1T4m4sfz2Q

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 15, 2018:

That whole unpluged AIC show was one of my favorites in the 'unpluged' shows.

Just wondering. Are there any other gamers out there?

SpikeTalon comments on Aug 14, 2018:

Deus Ex, Shogo MAD, Aliens Vs Predator 2, Max Payne.

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 14, 2018:

AVP2 was a great one. I loved that you could play as either the marines, the predator, or the alien. the replay on that one was great.

Just wondering. Are there any other gamers out there?

Thoughts on why so many single men mention their porn habits on dating sites and/or this one?

TristanNuvo comments on Aug 12, 2018:

My porn is the Science channel, and the discovery channel. And every now and a great show from HBO or some paid channel comes out with a great series, like Dexter, and Game of thrones.

@seaspot_run In that thought. Dr. Neil Degrasse Tyson is a porn star.

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 12, 2018:

@SukiSue The diagnosis of Schizoaffective disorder is not very old. it wasn't untill I think around 2000. Before then most people were misdiagnosed. But since they have a better understanding about it, the medications have got a lot better. The hardest part of meication is that you are trying to medicate quite a few symptoms. Halucinations, voices, depression, anxiety, and extreems of bi-polar. It's been a long road through many Dr's trying different things. But the combo I have now seems to have the best results so far. Plus, I have a great therapist who works with me with a few different ways to try and make tools with dealing with life, rather than some I've had that told me what to do. I am generally doing a lot better than I used to be, and my out look on life. but every now and again some things just go out of whack. But I've learned a lot about how to deal when that happens.

@Sticks48 I agree. Tony Iommi is a great on at that as well.

Damn, I was doing so well for quite a while.

GreatNani comments on Aug 12, 2018:

Absolutely one day or even one hour at a time. Maybe a med check, if you like your doctor?

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 12, 2018:

Schizoaffective disorder is one of the hardest things to medicate because there are a lot of symptoms to tackle. Hallucinations, Voices, depression, Bi-polar,anxiety, and a few other things.so it's takes a bit to try and works best since it's a few medications that have to go together. Not all medications work the same on every body, and some just don't work together. It's been a ongoing thing for many years now from a few different Dr.'s. The psychiatrist I've been seeing for a while now is easilly the best I've ever worked with. She really cares, in fact when we first me I was such a wreck that she almost baker acted me. Usually, it goe's like, you see your DR, they give you meds, and then make an appointment for three months later. That's a long time to go if something isn't working. My psychiatrist I have now was really concerned, so rather than the three month thing, she had me see her every two weeks. That worked great, we tried different meds, sometimes different doses. The combo I'm on now seems to be the best I've ever tried. But no matter how good meds are, they don't fix you 100%, but the help a lot.

A Sorry this is a long post.

bleurowz comments on Aug 12, 2018:

Great story, thanks for sharing. I have a lot of respect for chefs. I had a friend some years ago who was one and I don't know how he managed the long hours and the intense environment. He got burned out, too.

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 12, 2018:

Even though I burned out doing it for a job, I still love to cook something special for my friends when we get together.

Okay share your disco stories.

TristanNuvo comments on Aug 12, 2018:

I grew up in that era, an I still have to stick to my guns here and say I fucking hated disco. Most of it was stollen from some great Funk bands, like the commadors, earth wind an fire, George Clinton and the parliment funkadelic,, and many more. Alwaysy lovrd the funk, but I've alwayse hated ...

bleurowz comments on Aug 12, 2018:

One day at a time, that's the way I've had to look at it. I do the best I can and try to find the good in each day. That's what your post inspires in me. "Enjoying being alive" -- big thing for me, too. And seeing the beauty in something simple like the changing colors in the sky. Wonderful.

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 12, 2018:

I try to do the same. part of my therapy is trying to be around other people that I don't know. But working with my therapist, We've worked out a great plan, and btw, it does work like you said "One day at a time". rather than rushing into things, we've worket out some coping skills that after some practice have been a positive effect on me.

Okay share your disco stories.

TristanNuvo replies on Aug 12, 2018:

I forgo to mention that disco also jacked R&B as well. Here are a few examples of what I mean.. The first one is george clinton, who basickly invented funk. The comodores. They hat some great hits, but Lionel took that and ran with the ball to make some amazing tunes. The third one is Earth Wind and Fire. of all the things I would like to say about them. Nothing compaires ti Phillip Baileys falsetto. He is the best at that. https://youtu.be/gjKFCYzqq-A https://youtu.be/-5EmnQp3V48 https://youtu.be/Gs069dndIYk

I've never read any books from Theodor Greisle. But I've watched a bunch of his works put on animated shows. His outlook on how people react with other people was inspiring.
