    Somewhere I read that it’s best to unplug them even if your phone is not plugged into the other end. (Speaking of charging cables here.)

    @ShiroKuro I'm glad it was helpful. Yay! Hopefully your teacher will be on board with it.

    Done that for decades with a porch or deck... It doesn't even need to be THAT cold, especially if you have some big coolers to load and drag outside for a while!

    If you want to practice I’ll send you a zoom link and you can connect to it. (Late this afternoon when I’m home).

    @RealPlayer said: REgifting. So, that word does not bug me.... well, as long as it's used as a gerund If someone says "Remember that book that Mark gifted me? I regifted it to Sue" then all bets are off.

    @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.

    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.
