Doesn't sound like my idea of a life.

Actually he is usually groomed and can see just fine. He actually does get into things he shouldn't like shredding TP rolls on the holder. Getting into trash cans and shreds/eats anything made of paper, foil, plastic. He's a silly boy!

Sweet! Better hurry, @steve-miller ... says it's almost sold out....

Maybe the AI productivity boom will bail them out. With AI and robots doing most of the work (powered by nuclear power plants), maybe they can lower retirement age and increase social spending (and reduce greenhouse gases at the same time).

@Daniel a charcuterie board is a plate (board) with meats, cheeses, and olives laid out on it, like what you would see at a party. [image: alt text]

Voted today. Early voting. Around here you have to go to the county board of electors. Carnival atmosphere in the parking lot. People passing out sample ballots - red ones and blue ones. Happy to see that red ones had no takers. Lots of people took blue ones. Encouraging, if nothing else.

Nevermind. I missed my deadline. I'm sure this is right.

Good decision. Long may she run.

Link to video I'll Remember I'm posting this one because it was used in the soundtrack for the video of her visit with her family. I like it a lot. '"I'll Remember" is featured on Madonna's 1995 compilation album, Something to Remember. Because it was originally recorded as a movie theme song for the 1994 film With Honors, it never appeared on any of her standard studio albums.' I think it's one of her best songs. Btw, this was the 'B-side" video to Rain. I think rain is one of her best videos. It's easy to find if you want to watch it.

I turned mine on last night and the result was unsatisfactory. I had trouble choosing between 2 settings. I had to get up and choose the lower one. Then I woke up this morning sweating. I turned the AC back on this morning and left it at 78. At this point, I'm think more of my electric bill than my comfort since I can't seem to get comfortable anyway.

Japan is being impacted by this pretty severely (from what I can from this distance). Tons of sites have been taken offline to try to patch the flaws.

@mik those are adorable! @Steve-Miller said: fluffy idiots.

Absolutely not. You must have the jawline.
