Did anyone ever do anything like this?

With me, it was my mom's car key.

It knocked me across the room.

The key melted in the wall socket.

I am likely who I am because of this.



I'm sure that I did, but I didn't use a knife.  I don't remember how it happened, but I remember that it did. ::)

;D

I have never made it either. And it’s not happening this trip.

DR ELMORE the Dream-O-Matic 6000 says that your dream indicates you need to narrow down your choices a bit more before you can make a final decision on a life event.  Do not let anyone else's concerns sway you in a direction you know is NOT right for you.

You will NEVER have all of the facts - so you must proceed with what is RIGHT for you.

DR RON PULLIAM the Dream-O-Matic 6000 says that your bicycle dream indicates that you feel certain areas of your life are out of control or being guided by others.

Stay on course just as you are - there is no better road than the one you are on.  The trip is as important as the destination.

Pleased to hear how much better you’re feeling George!

Has your mom remained Covid-free?
I was wondering if you were positive on the night you went to the casino together.

She said that she hasn't experienced any symptoms.  Hopefully, that doesn't mean that she's positive but asymptomatic. :-\

Iris, it's a new play, kind of an absurdist comedy with some parody music. I directed the first presentation about a year and a half ago, didn't direct the second presentation because the Group Rep had some issues to work out, and then was asked to do this incarnation again and to work with the author on certain things, which I did, as all issues were worked out. The author is a novelist and wrote a very funny book called Pest Control.

I finished the Leaving Neverland thing last night. If you'd only seen that you'd think everything in it was real, and that, unfortunately, is a documentary made with bias and one that is completely one-sided. No one was interviewed who might have presented facts that didn't fit the director's narrative. And the director has said it out loud, that he didn't interview those people because it wasn't the story he was telling. Well, buckaroo, you should be telling a story where all sides a presented if you're making a documentary, otherwise you should go make a fictional film.

It's easy to Google and see all the lies and falsehoods in the documentary and once you know what those are then it's hard to take any of it seriously. And yet, almost every critic did, without even doing a modicum of research. They were called out on it and were much more careful with the Woody Allen hit-job thing on HBO. There should be a law requiring a card up front that says something like - this is a one-sided documentary with no rebuttal or interviews with anyone who might present other facts that would contradict anything presented here. Therefore, in fairness, you must take everything with a grain of salt.

Sorry about your experience dining at the Thai restaurant, Jane.

Some of my favorite dishes don’t require frying….summer rolls and green papaya salad.

If only those were our favorites.  We will go again next Monday or Tuesday when we can have leftovers the next day.

Rest. I was too long in the car yesterday and things began to ache again.

Well, our storm - for a few minutes - was noisy and flashy and wet.

Other than that, a big ol' nothingburger - with none of the predicted hail, or anything.

One nearby town did have some power outages, I'll give it that.
