The book is called “Swearing Is Good for You.”

I agree.

Hmmm, maybe I should swear more. I know Keith would prefer I said damn instead of darn.

Jane, I think that you're mature enough to handle the upgraded terminology.

LOL. I prefer to say dang.

DR Jan has left, darn.

I am supposed to be at my book discussion group discussing Madame Fourcade's Secret War: The Daring Young Woman Who Led France's Largest Spy Network Against Hitler by Lynne Olson. Since only 2 of has actually read the book the others wanted to postpone the discussion until next week. The other person who read the book won't be here & is not happy about it.

I will be here but will miss the following month and had been looking forward to that discussion.

I don't really care about discussing this non-fiction book though I am very glad I read it.

jan · « **Reply #98 on:** July 29, 2019, 05:21:44 PM »

I'm back. Had an important phone call.

jan · « **Reply #99 on:** July 29, 2019, 05:23:48 PM »

And now I'm going to start dinner.

BBL.

I'm sorry that I was away from my computer when it happened, but jan's posting count has finally reached four digits! Congrats, jan!

Yes, Lady Jane, the heat was so dry that I woke up with nose bleeds. The good news is you should be safe from injury for a while as I was very graceful and fell in the yard while feeding the cats. Did a slide through the dirt onto the walkway ending up with a badly scraped up leg and a long wide bruise across the palm of my hand.

Ouch, Jan. Vibes you heal very quickly.

John G. · « **Reply #103 on:** July 29, 2019, 07:02:06 PM »

Congratulations, Jan, on your milestone.

Jane, the book on swearing is interesting because it deals with how your brain reacts and behaves when you swear.

John G. · « **Reply #105 on:** July 29, 2019, 07:05:02 PM »

I'm finally getting back to "Us." It's more gruesome than Greta (the title of my next book), but it's also a much better movie. I'm surprised at how good of a horror movie it is, and how good the humor in it is. It's not my kind of movie, but it's well worth watching it. Great premise, very creepily executed.

I should read the short version. I do swear occassionaly when I really need to. I did not say "Darn, I broke my shoulder"

It's a fairly short book.

As much as I loved Us, I needed to start something a little more upbeat to end the day on. So, I'm watching a documentary called Science Fair, which follows a number of people involved in a high school science fair competition. They're smart, they're self-confident, and the projects they made are fascinating.

Hello

vixmom · « **Reply #110 on:** July 29, 2019, 08:21:45 PM »

Firstly many thanks to FJL AND Skip for the hospitality and conversation Sunday night. It was so lovely seeing you both again

vixmom · « **Reply #111 on:** July 29, 2019, 08:23:39 PM »

King Kong was fun and I'm glad I saw it. The music did not make me want to rum out and buy the OBC cd but it was pleasant enough while it was being sung, and it was sung well

vixmom · « **Reply #112 on:** July 29, 2019, 08:25:03 PM »

The dancing was very energetic if the choreography was somewhat repetitive.

The chorus members were very nice to look at.

vixmom · « **Reply #113 on:** July 29, 2019, 08:26:17 PM »

Interesting and good use of projections for back ground, and they were especially effective in scenes where there was running, climbing and traveling by ship

vixmom · « **Reply #114 on:** July 29, 2019, 08:26:52 PM »

And the real reason I went...King Kong...

vixmom · « **Reply #115 on:** July 29, 2019, 08:28:16 PM »

The puppetry was really amazing., despite the fact the cables and puppeteers could clearly be seen, I still bought into the idea this was a living creature

vixmom · « **Reply #116 on:** July 29, 2019, 08:28:47 PM »

I had managed to snag a front row center orchestra seat

vixmom · « **Reply #117 on:** July 29, 2019, 08:29:41 PM »

At one point Kong came to the front of the stage and leaned over the audience, reaching down as if to grab one of us in the front row

vixmom · « **Reply #118 on:** July 29, 2019, 08:32:09 PM »

All of us cowered down as if we were in real danger

Great review, Vixmom.
