Does anyone on Basil Market actually care? Do you (the community) actually care about detailed and informative discussion? From MANY YEARS here I've basically observed a very large population of people wanting to cram their own opinions into a thread and then get out without reading other posts or contributing to a discussion.
What are your medical stories? In light of recent personal events i'd like to ask the members of basil about any interesting medical stories involving themselves that they might have. I've had a rough year and i'd like to know what other people have gone through! Myself: Yesterday after a four month investigation i had an appointment with a neurosurgeon in Melbourne, and much to my surprise they told me they had found a tumor in my brain. It's done permanent damage already and i'll forever need hormone replacement (Testosterone and others) and i'll always have Cranial Diabetes Insipidus. Theyre hoping to treat the tumor with radiation while starting me on hormone therapy. I've also got a sinus disease in my nose making it hard for me to bre

Journey to Artistic Talent Dearest Basil, I have gone throughout my entire life without ever producing anything artistic. I would always see friends who had done amazing art work and feel forever jealous of there talent, yet most of them had beginnings not even close to what they can currently produce. It is a combination of this and myself moving into a new stage in my life, that i feel i should at least challenge myself an try to improve on my ability to draw and create. I sat down for forty minutes looking at a skull, and attempted to draw it to the best of my ability. This is the result of careful consideration and no previous artistic experience what so ever. Please, offer me advice, suggestions on things i can draw, techniques to impr
Thread Deleted for no reason - No explenation My active thread in which i was answering questions related to the Pizza Industry was locked and deleted for absolutely no obvious reason? :| The link to the thread was: I request the thread to be unlocked / restored, or at least a valid explanation to why it was removed.
Customizing my pizzas Since I work at the pizza shop and I'm getting pizza tomorrow, what should I get? I'll probably get four different pizzas and I need recommendations on a mixup of ingredients that might taste awesome! Ingredients to choose from are basically the standard pizza stuff, with some extra things like sundried tomatoes, beef, spaghetti... I'll eat pretty much anything, as long as it doesn't have any seafood! So, I would appreciate any suggestions of pizzas! Two of my current favourites are: BBQ sauce, cheese, ham, salami, bacon and cheese. Tomato sauce, cheese, ham, mushroom, capsicum, olives, pineapple, salami, cheese and tomato sauce on top.
Four Years Here. I've been officially using this account on this forum for four years now, I got a message and the medal today. I was kind of wondering how long i've been here everytime i'd glance over the medals page and see those three. :).
An old painting i made in Paint SAI of a Cherry Blossom Tree. This was my first time ever using the program.
iPhone 4 - Recommended Apps? Okay so i got my iPhone 4 in the mail today, it's the first phone i've ever had that wasnt a $50 brick from some random store. I've been playing around with it and setting it up and i was wondering what Apps are a must. I don't care to much about games (though, suggestions will still be good), more interested in useful apps. Thanks!
The God Delusion I got this book for Christmas today and i've been reading it a lot. It's amazing and discusses everything with religion, using fair points and logical arguments. I plead to all people, religious or not, to pick up this book and read through it. It's so insightful and interesting to learn the origins of a lot of these things (such as morality without god/s, points towards a god/s existence and points against) And also discusses a world without religion. Any theist who wouldn't read this book purely because of the topic it is based on is depriving themselves of valuable information, and blocking out all possible evidence that points against they're beliefs. (These kind of people are the ones who demand proof for the lack of a
