I have a crazy morning. At 8:00 Access-a-Ride will hopefully arrive and get me to my lab appointment for tests prior to next week's checkup. Then at 10:30 I will head uptown for my Covid booster shot.

Very interesting, this Black Tights ballet movie. I never knew about it. I just took a quick look at the YouTube copy. Most unfortunate. Is that gate weave, or did somebody film it off a screen? But never mind that. Who owns it, and what materials exist? What a restoration coup that could be.

Measuring the image of Black Tights on my computer screen, I get a 1.9:1 aspect ratio. Judging by the titles, what's there is at least centered. Definitely missing some sides, though.

Cole slaw and fries for me, please.

If/when the radiation treatments begin, AAR $5.50 roundtrip a day for 30 days is much preferable than a $40 roundtrip taxi

I’m pleased to note that the plagiarism claim is being taken very seriously, and I have actually been thanked for pointing it out and offering a workable solution that won’t have a great impact. They understand that work lies ahead, but they’re willing to address it. You never know with other departments.

No. All I want for Christmas is a Christmas without “All I Want for Christmas.”

The Access-a-Ride arrived at exactly 10:30, and I arrived at the CVS by 10:40. I was boostered as soon as I got there, not at my appointment time of 11:30. I called AccesspapRide to see if I could get an earlier ride back, rather than wait another hour, and they had nothing available, so I cancelled the ride and took a taxi home. I was home by 11:15.

Hectic day here. Once again AT&T rerouted my phone call to their own people. This time, however, it took considerably longer to go through the rigamarole to undo the rerouting instructions.

How does AT&T -- or anyone -- justify this sort of treatment to their customers? I can't imagine any customer being anything other than outraged. Do they really think this would motivate someone to buy a phone from them??

Back from our reading - some very odd low energy for the first two scenes, then everything picked up and there were some nice laughs and all the songs went over great and everyone loved the little simple staging bits.

Not much hope at that speed.

Of course, with no one here it doesn’t help.

Let me ask this question (it is a story problem).

Somewhere in the Seattle area today (I didn’t pay attention where), a young man was walking through this neighborhood firing his gun.

He wasn’t shooting at people, but at houses and trees, etc.

911 was called and several police units showed up.

The young man started advancing towards the officers, and the police repeatedly warned him to stop and put down his gun.

The young man continued advancing, so the police shot and killed the young man.

Now for my question:  Has anyone ever heard of shooting a suspect in the foot?  Or in his shooting hand?
Title: Re: GETTING FRUSTRATION OUT OF THE WAY
Post by: TCB on November 08, 2021, 11:36:20 PM
Now, if these officers are crack shots so that they kill him outright, would it be that hard to aim for a limb?

Seeing someone react to being shot in the foot, you can see that the person is in great pain.

If the first rounds don’t stop him, then go ahead and kill the bastard, but really?

I've always wondered about this...or, why not bring a tranquilizer gun and attempt to tranquilize them before killing them??  There have to be situations where that would be an easy thing to do.

I’m not sure that tranquilizer guns work as well on people as on rhinos.  Plus, I think it takes several minutes to take effect.

A single list isn't as bad as a multi-paragraph essay that several others have posted. ::)
