colloquialisms from the antarctic world
a couple of good sayings popped up this week. for starters, from fire school:
“when you’re going into a fire, don’t make a fuel of yourself or you’ll turn out to be an ash.”
and, as i wait for final confirmation on my travel to antarctica one week before my supposed departure date:
“semper gumby,” translated, “always flexible.”
nothing in this program is set until it actually happens.
now, off to more burning buildings!
