Post by: elmore3003 on April 05, 2024, 08:12:36 AM: I was on the phone with Doug doing score corrections when there was a big crash behind me. I turned around and a shelf of books was all over the floor. I blamed Annabelle, and then Jen called me from the fifth floor to ask if I felt the building shaking. I didn't, and she said, I think we had an earthquake. I went back to work with Doug, and he had top leave by 10:30. So I cleaned up the books abd put them away.
Title: Re: THE IMPENDING VISIT OF THE DARLING DAUGHTER

I also have new copper pipes a new gas fitting and valve.....and a nice overflow tank on top of my water heater.

He fixed the door to the furnace alcove....lots of nice things.

So it seems to be working. He also cleaned the aerators on all of my faucets.

This morning I called to confirm our afternoon appointments for our Pfizer covid vaccinations. We we arrived we were told they were out of Pfizer. Fortunately the pharmacist I spoke to this morning put the last two Pfizer viles aside for us.

Nice! Very good thinking to call ahead to confirm!
Title: Re: THE IMPENDING VISIT OF THE DARLING DAUGHTER
Post by: Freddie on April 05, 2024, 04:36:08 PM: And thoughtful of the pharmacist to have thought to do that!
Title: Re: THE IMPENDING VISIT OF THE DARLING DAUGHTER
Post by: Jane on April 05, 2024, 04:49:33 PM: Very thoughtful of her. If they didn't have Pfizer I was going to cancel our appointments. Moderna does not agree with me.

Post by: John G. on April 05, 2024, 05:50:00 PM: A train worker steals a girl from a train wreck scene and makes her believe she is the older sister of his son. When they're older the boy and girl fall in love, though they try to deny it. Meanwhile, Dad has fallen in love with the girl too. Very Judge Turpin.

Post by: John G. on April 05, 2024, 07:47:43 PM: Ferrari is not all that great. In fact, there are scenes in the beginning that are unintentionally bad. Really bad. I have never been much of a Michael Mann fan, Thief being a major exception. This one lives down to expectations.

Title: Re: THE IMPENDING VISIT OF THE DARLING DAUGHTER
Post by: George on April 06, 2024, 12:27:18 AM: They were really good...but a little dry, so I asked for a side of the marinara sauce and that helped a lot.
