Headache of the morning. Will a reader who sees “AF” on a page know that it means Africa and not “as f—-?”

I miss the rains down in Africa

It would depend on context

I received a call this evening from a woman in the fraud department at the old bank. She said that she was checking to make sure everything was "OK," that she saw that my account had been reopened. OK?! OK?! She thinks this is OK? It is not OK at all. I have no confidence whatsoever that I won't get locked out again. Her explanation of why it happened doesn't match the facts or explain why it keeps happening. Then she said that no system is perfect and sometimes there's a "false positive," ie, the system catches something that isn't fraudulent at all. Her attitude is that this is just the way it is and nothing can be done. I detest that attitude! I told her that software is written by humans and humans can change it. Their security protocols are inadequate and need to be changed. She wasn't happy when I said I'd lost confidence in the bank and would be switching to another bank. How could anyone think that this situation was OK?

ARRRGGHHHHH!!

Yes, we would like a visit from Mike Barnum.

DR Jeanne, I recommend Charles Schwab. Best customer service.

I was once in a production of The Madwoman of Chaillot. I played the Sewer Man, and maybe something else. It was not a good play. Songs might’ve helped. There was a guy whose job in one scene was just to juggle. Upset that he had no lines, as the scene would end, he’d ad-lib, “I’m just the juggler!” Completely insane.

A lovely day in French Polynesia as we fair Rodzinskis battle against sunburn.

Former DR MBARNUM says hello to all his friends here at HHW.

He is avoiding social media and living his life.....still writing....and being nice to folks who are not so nice in return.

He says he may drop in to say hello - after he creates a new account, so we await the day.......

It would be nice to welcome him back.

Continuing with Viola Davis’s Finding Me. Really enjoying it.

Page seven? Really?

Finished with my viewing.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #197 on:** March 16, 2023, 11:18:53 PM »

I think I took a photo of the “crux” aka the Southern Cross, in the sky tonight.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #198 on:** March 16, 2023, 11:20:19 PM »

I can’t get my Google here to not be in French.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #199 on:** March 16, 2023, 11:22:10 PM »

I’m out here in the South Pacific with 0 Guests to help me get us to page 8.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #200 on:** March 16, 2023, 11:23:07 PM »

Egregious post #200

Rodzinski · « **Reply #201 on:** March 16, 2023, 11:25:17 PM »

I saw Mark Rylance in Bete Noir on Broadway with that most astonishing like 30-minute monologue that introduces his character. A feat most amazing to behold.

No George? No George?

He fell asleep again?

bk · « **Reply #204 on:** March 16, 2023, 11:41:16 PM »

He went down a rabbit hole again?

bk · « **Reply #205 on:** March 16, 2023, 11:41:30 PM »

He did everything but show up to post again?

bk · « **Reply #206 on:** March 16, 2023, 11:41:40 PM »

This seems very unseemly to me.

bk · « **Reply #207 on:** March 16, 2023, 11:42:17 PM »

Guess we'll have to do the heavy lifting.

bk · « **Reply #208 on:** March 16, 2023, 11:42:34 PM »

I'm sure page eight is somewhere close by.

How can it not be?
