Elmore, this is Leonard's third Christmas. I got him in October of 2018.

Maybe someone here knows how this works:

I was just watching a couple of minutes of a YouTube Live thing while logged into my YouTube account (as I always am), and I wondered if the people running the presentation can see the identity of everyone who's just watching. In other words, if it says "22 people watching", do they see who those 22 people are?

They also had the chat window open and a few people were posting. I clicked on "Participants" and only those few people were listed. So I'm guessing that in the case of the chat window, you're only seen if you post? Or maybe if you click inside that window?

Just some privacy stuff I wondered about today which hadn't occurred to me before.

Maybe I can see better how that works on the Kritzerland show tonight. I always have both Facebook and YouTube running for that, with the volume muted on one depending on which is working better for me.

Hmmm. With both of them running -- is that like voting twice?  :D

It’s been a wild ride. Ended up in the ER around 1:30 am. Two—count ‘em, two!—kidney stones making their painful way down. They added to the fun by having to “cath” me in order to get me to urinate. Ow and oy. As soon as the stones moved into the urinary tract, the pain subsided in the main area. They let me go a little later.

Hello, all.....new Broadway Radio Show...Singing 'bout Santa!  Whether he's called Father Christmas, St. Nick or Santa Claus, there's been lots of songs paying tribute to the man in the red suit and this week we hear from stars of the stages of Broadway, West End, and cabaret singing some of those tunes!  Enjoy!!!

DR John G. - I am sorry you had to endure that. Glad you are out the other side.


I commiserate. I underwent this several times myself in the ER, and not too long ago. Quite unpleasant.

I hope they gave you some good drugs, and that you can now rest.

True, and my cat that did the most damage never broke anything in the following years.  She certainly taught me much which prepared me for having children.  For Bryan's second Christmas we put the tree inside of his unused playpen.

Oh, I feel terrible for you and am very glad they passed.  Who drove you to the ER?

I hope after the nurses that treat covid patients are vaccinated there will still be vaccinations available for doctors that treat them.  Fingers crossed Bryan will soon have his, without serious side effects.

I constantly worry about him, and that he might take it home to the wife and baby.

No drugs at all. It was most unpleasant.

I drove myself. It’s only about five blocks from here. Maybe a mile.

Had ABS last night - couldn't fall asleep and kept getting up because several good ideas for project two came to me and when I don't write this stuff down I never remember it.

ChasSmith, the answer is no - we cannot see who's watching save for anyone who's posting comments.

Sunday afternoon greetings!  Just finished December’s “Crafternoon” on Facebook Messenger with my sister (in Michigan) and niece (in Florida).
