I love this announcement:


This weekend, Alamo City Theatre will debut "Shakespeare in the Parking Lot," San Antonio's only drive-in live theater experience. Presented in partnership with — and next door to — Sanchos Cantina & Cocina, SPL combines COVID-19 safety precautions, chips and salsa, low cost entertainment and family-friendly theater all in one.

DR JRand70, I am not happy with the New Facebook either, but I have the same problem with Apple.  The last computer upgrade destroyed my iTunes, and I'm wary about the new upgrade that just showed up in my System Preferences.

Larry, I don't think that it was your computer upgrade that destroyed your iTunes.  I think Apple destroyed iTunes because I'm on Windows and last night I got the idea to look in iTunes for a podcast and that's when I discovered that it's not the way it used be.  Of course, it's probably been more than a year since I even opened iTunes on my computer, so I should've discovered this sooner.

Thursday morning greetings!  Just checking in to tell you we have houseguests who will probably cause me to be pretty scarce around here through the weekend.  Charlotte and her parents arrived late Tuesday and we’re having a great time getting acquainted.  She’s practically perfect in every way!

Well, I guess I've been given fair warning not to let any of you cook me a hamburger.  :)

Would you join me in a feast of juicy , thick medium rare cheeseburgers?

I could never get my hamburgers as well done as I liked in a skillet.

Now I broil them on HI for about 7 minutes on each side and they get done.  If you overcook them they are tough.....so watch them carefully.  Easier than skillet frying.

And I use an aluminum pan on a cookie sheet so clean up is easy.

My mom gets frozen hamburger patties from Costco (not cooked at all).  What she does is preheat her George Foreman grill to 400°, then pre-cook the hamburgers in the microwave for one minute, then put them on the George Foreman grill for four minutes and they turn out perfectly.

I know it’s not a sports site and I’m hardly the world’s biggest sports junkie, but I was still sad to read about Tom Terrific Seaver dying.

Yes it was.

Isn’t “practically perfect in every way” a quote from Mary Poppins?

I'm up, I'm up - ten hours of sleep.  Got up at noon-thirty.  The nice fellow in the back house came over - he was having a panic attacked and just needed some human interaction, which I was happy to give him.

I read a story about a stupid grandmother who lost visiting rights because she continued to post photos of her grandchild on Facebook against the wishes of the parents.

Flash Flood warnings in the DC/Baltimore area.   There were tornado watches and warnings earlier.  I think they're mostly expired now.
