They left out "full". These big online stores are very manipulative. Both choosing the product and making the order seem meant to corral the consumer into making rushed decisions. Buyer beware! My blanket is 300 GSM in trailer park green. J/k

I usually wait for October for Covid/flu shots... might accelerate that this year!

I can't think that Eleanor had anything but good intention in her support of the UN but what a mess.

@dolmansaxlil I grew up believing in the rights enshrined in our Constitution, especially First (freedom of speech, separation of church and state, others) and Fourth (warrant required, no presumption of guilt). The current environment often makes no rhyme or reason in comparison, and that's an understatement. Some people want to nuke the earth to go to heaven. I mean I'll just say it. And these same people are trying to impose Christian nationalism in the US.

It must be hard to render faces frontally on coinage because of the way the nose projects outward. I think that’s why they’re traditionally done in profile. Can you imagine doing Washington’s nose frontally? OMG!

FYI to @axtremus . When I checked the forum earlier this morning I had to log in (expected after reading this thread and all seemed normal. But when I just came back to the forum again a few hours later, I had to log in again. Seemed like that happened after you applied your interim fix. Another oddish thing...there were two posts that showed up in "Unread" that I had already read.

@Daniel said: Oh my. I’m just kidding. I don’t wish them harm.

I have some minor edits but I'll leave it. My phone won't work right with the site and I don't know when it will right itself.

Wouldn't it be cool to use the word association thread to write a story? One would have to add a sentence at a time using one or more words from the thread--in order, starting with post number one. I guess navigating the thread and keeping track of the current word/post number would be tricky though.

Please post pictures. I just researched the Sagrada Família in some detail a few weeks ago. Fascinating.

WTF?

Dear citizens, Use the money to go to the dentist. Or start stocking your pantry for the apocalypse. Or donate your money to charity. Or, pile $500 cash in the middle of the street, light it on the fire, and roast marshmallows.

Lot's of internet/ phone issues with my devices lately. Getting a land line account with 2 corded phones. Tired of trying to talk on my cellphone and hanging up on the person because my screen came in brief contact with the side of my head.

I may have to watch some of them again to determine a favorite.

Being as I know you’re concerned that two old guys on the road aren’t getting proper nutrition I’m compelled to report on our supper. Forgot to take a picture. Being as we are nearing the end of our journey we decided to use up our leftovers. Bought a head of romaine and combined it with a few steak chunks, leftover stir fried veg, the rest of the tomatoes, a few spoonfuls of black beans, chopped onions and what was left of the quinoa. Stirred a bit of water in to what was left of the Tzatziki dip for a dressing. Garnished with some of the garlic chives I brought from my home garden. A transcendent experience.

Now I know it's "biggest". My guess is it will probably be demolished, at least if "city planners" need some kind of road or development.

You can find YouTube interviews where she talks about him if you want to know more.
