Well, you've read the notes, the notes had five variants of the notes, and now it is time for you to post until the five variants of cows come home.

I've never heard of Hightail, but I've gotten files through We Transfer before.  I would assume either would be fine, as long as any necessary instructions were clear.

It's simple - I just e-mail you via Hightail.  You click on the provided link and download - just like We Transfer.

I can't wait for people to hear it.  I recommend playing it right from the files in the folder - when you highlight the icon you want to hear then you just click the arrow that shows up.  It's like a whole new album now and I'm over the moon about it - plus you get the Simply and This Christmas tracks, too, also remixed.

I have vague memories of a couple of dreams.  In one, PS Classics producer Tommy Krasker and I were restoring a 1930s revue, and Annabelle was in another that's now even more vague.

No one seems to have mentioned the Democrat nominees, so I'll just say that Kamala Harris was not my first choice for veep - there were other ladies I liked more - but I hope all of Con Don's attempts to screw up this election, from screwing up the US Postal System to encouraging Russian interference, only lead to more charges when the ugly shit is finally prosecuted.

DR George, I cannot say I see any sense in republishing George Eliot and other lady authors under their real names.  I know her name was Mary Ann Evans, but big deal.  The concept may appeal to some current feminist literati, but Mary Ann Evans or her family won't get much out of it.

Today, a return to something "normal" -- I'll be going to the car place for an oil change and the previously mentioned tire changes. I also just got the notice for my emissions check, so they can do that, too, if they have time to fit it in.

So I'll be sitting there, masked, for a while. Let's hope the wifi is good today.

Carney's!  Wow. I do miss that taste, of Carney's and Tommy's. I don't know if BK gets these things with the chili, but that is definitely an L.A. taste, just as Cincinnati chili and Chicago hot dogs are their own regional tastes.

Curious about the hot dog. What's on it in addition to the red cabbage? I suppose you can add anything you want, but I'm wondering how they serve it if you don't specify anything. That's an interesting combination. Maybe I'll try it myself if there are pictures of it on the web.

I agree, though the Brontes were not originally published under their own names. If anything gets more people to read Middlemarch and Daniel Deronda, I’m for it.

Another wrestle-with-Stella episode while I tried to get the damned laundry cart of of my apartment and into the hall.  She got to the first floor before I finally caught her while dragging the cart with me.  When I bring the laundry up from the basement, I'm locking her in the bathroom.

The chicken salad turned out pretty good.....not DR VIXMOM or DR JOHN G good.....but it is okay for me.

I also added some Italian seasoning that enhanced it greatly.

Last week I somehow purchased slider buns which were completely useless for my hamburger patties....but what were left were perfect for chicken salad

I may try a guinea pig test for anyone considering the Sandy/Me high-resolution downloads.  We're still puzzling it all out, but I figure it wouldn't hurt to try it the one way I know how.

Well, I must leave work now and go to my parents' for our weekly Phase 10 card playing with their friends.  After I leave there, I'm going to take back the shirt that I bought a couple of days ago that turned out to be too small.

Be back later.

Yet again, I lost at Phase 10...but we all had fun. :)

We had six people playing, so it took us over three, count 'em, THREE hours to play one game!

Post by: George on August 14, 2020, 11:13:53 PM
Most of us had points in the 900s, and the person who was last had over 1000 points!
Title: Re: FIVE VARIANTS OF LAZARUS TAKING A DIVE
Post by: George on August 14, 2020, 11:14:16 PM
When we have four or five people, our final points can be as low as 300-400.

Post by: George on August 14, 2020, 11:14:54 PM
If anyone didn't know, Phase 10 is like gin rummy where you keep all of your cards until you get your patterns (phases) and the idea is to get the lowest points.
Title: Re: FIVE VARIANTS OF LAZARUS TAKING A DIVE
Post by: George on August 14, 2020, 11:15:20 PM
I don't remember how many points my mom (who won) ended up with, but I'm sure it was still over 700.

I was actually eating it while I was on my way to the Tumwater Fred Meyer to see if they had any shirts like the one I had to return.
