I always thought it was Flower DRUM Song.

But after seeing the movie, I realized it was FLOWER DRUM Song.

Wow. We're only reaching 70, and only 80 or close to it over the weekend.

Last week, I ordered litter from Petsmart. When I checked on the situation Tuesday, the site told me the order had expired, so I called customer service who told me they had been having computer/shipping issues so they would credit the order and I should reorder. The credit came through Paypal ASAP and I reordered. Since then, I have had two additional Paypal Petsmart charges for the same amount sdhow up on my bank ledger. So, this morning, PPetsmart Customer service and I need to have another talk.


Hoping that gets resolved, Larry.  It sounds very frustrating!

post until the pellet with the poison cows come home.


I may have read somewhere on the internet that that might have been the origin of the expression "Pellet Surprise."

The romantic goings-on of the cast of FLOWERS FOR ALGERNON could have been fodder for delightful press coverage by an Earl Wilson or Rona Barrett in a different time and place!

This is a day where I know exactly why a person takes a gun and starts shooting. Thanks to a Paypal/Petsmart screw up, two bogus charges totaling $80.32 - already paid - sit in my checking account ledger until Sept. 7, 2024, when the bank will hopefully drop them. The fact that I have $80 I need and cannot access has me furious, wanting both the bank and Petsmart who created these charges, dead at my feet. The fact that I had to wait till 9:00 for a phone call at a PST of 6:00a.m. only increases my fury.

As far as the other $85 charge pending from Paypal eight days ago, Paypal says it should have cleared already. WTF?

And I keep getting harassing emails from MacPaws, which handles Clean My Mac, for a subscription renewal of $34.95.

Well, Paypal paid it on Aug. 24. WTF?

From a column mentioning author James McBride:

Speaking about the Black and Jewish characters in “The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store,” McBride said, “There are places where we have common ground, and this common ground is wide. It’s a big world. And as a writer, if you don’t take advantage of that, then you’re missing the stuff that people get out of bed for.”

His goal, he said, is “to continually evolve and look toward the goodness of people because when the good comes out — it takes a while — it just bursts and shines with the most beautiful light. . . . All of us were young at one time; we were all young once and pretty and beautiful and handsome. And you know what? We still are. We just have to relearn to see that in ourselves. So, my goal as a writer is to just find that in another way and say it in another way.”

You are right DR FREDDIE.....I am thinking of writing a blog about local theeder under an assumed name.....

Back in the 1990's - the Indianapolis theeder was plagued by such a column on one of the various free Gay newspapers....they writer was nearly always accurate and caused lots of distress among those in relationships in the community....

This is a ME day.....and so far it has all been about ME.

I had decided that I would do some shopping today.....I decided on Wednesday.

But then yesterday I thought why not just go on Thursday....and have Friday as a FREE ME DAY.

So I did.

From MichaelG:

Quote
In the movie Disobedience, Rachel Weisz's character visits Willisden cemetery in London, and I thought, "Hey, I've been there!" You can tell a genealogist when the one London location shot he recognizes is a cemetery :).

Since we often explore cemeteries I checked to see if we have been to this one.  I don't think so.  My grandmother is buried in a different Jewish cemetery in London.

One of my treks was to the AutoZone to buy new windshield wipers for Petey the PT CRUISER.

And as luck would have it - I was caught in a torrential downpour going to the theeder yesterday afternoon.....made much easier and much safer because of the new wipers....
