If you can view the latest BBC Have I Got News For You comedy show aired Friday, about 21 minutes into the show Ian Hislop, editor of Private Eye, laid into Spensers book, calling it "self-serving bollocks" "a lot of it doesn't make sense" "a number of incidents in the book turn out not to be true or he's got the details wrong". And added a very amusing anecdote re recollections may vary Three minutes worth watching if you can

@adagiom Ok, I downloaded the app and created an account. The Notice of Hearing has the following: DATE x Time x Place: ZOOM Meeting ID: x PASSCODE: x To attend by telephone: phone # I don't understand. Does this mean I need to log into Zoom and put the meeting code and password in the Zoom app on that day and time? Do you know what "To attend by telephone:" might mean? Do you know if this means I can call and only use my voice? I will only have my phone available.

Gifting could be replaced with presenting. So you'd present a present.

@kluurs said: 4.79 - not sure who I displeased. You never know when you close a door a little too hard. Rachel always does that as a matter of habit. I’ll bet her rating is relatively bad.

@Mik BTW don't get me wrong, I'm very happy for you that yours was funded. Any studies getting funded in this admin should be celebrated. But there is (was) a vetting process in place. Trump just ignored it, the way he ignores everything and just does what he wants. So I wouldn't call that winnowing.

5-4-3-2-1, but I have big paws. And a thumb that bends outward more than usual (don’t know what that’s called).

Newport, RI Chateau-sur-Mer Link to video I've noticed many of these Gilded Age mansions in Newport had dark interiors. I like that. I think it's beautiful and elegant. Darkness is a rare commodity when sunlight is so relentless imho.

Speaking of art, I received some more of my late mother's photographs today. So this was the 4th USPS box of 4 with photographs my cousin found after my father passed. It was joyous! My mother passed in 2014 and so much went missing. But today there was something I wanted a lot. It's a black and white photograph of my mother and me by my first Dr who was a photographer. I had this photograph framed for my mother a long time ago. I would have been maybe 4 and she would have been about 23. Man I need to learn to post pictures.

I was beginning to wonder what a girl had to do to get arrested.

What could possibly go wrong?

Well, that's ironic. I was taught to use vinegar and newspapers, iirc. I think the paper was meant to be abrasive. I still use vinegar. I use it with paper towels.

@Bernard that sounds like a great approach!!
