I think it was DR singdaw who asked me a couple of weeks ago about my Access-a-Ride status. When I had my interview on Aug. 8, I was told I would hear something in three weeks.

Well, today I heard from them. I am approved until September, 2027! And they send me a laminated card with my photo. I am very pleased.

That is very good news!

As a retired university mathematics professor perhaps he can explain the complicated formula needed to calculate one’s age by subtracting a birthdate from the current date

What's New Pussycat?

LOL.....I just remember laughing very hard at this exchange.

Woody Allen: I work at the Follies Bergere helping the girls change their clothes.
Someone: What's the pay?
Woody Allen:  Twelve francs a week.
Someone: That's not much.
Woody Allen: It's all I can afford to pay them.

A Peter Sellers quote that nauseated my mother who saw it when I was ushering at the theater where it played in Greenville SC:

"I like thighs. Do YOU like thighs?"

I do not remember who he was saying that to

How you been, Ron?

Somewhat adrift, I am sorry to say.

My sinus issues have intensified, and I stay medicated with little result other than snoozing a lot of my days away.

I test for COVID and continue to get negative results.

Sigh.

If vixmom needs a couple of more years to qualify for Medicaid, I'll gladly donate some.

I sympathize with your sinus issues. Is there something like ragweed blowing in since fall is here?
