I learnt from a book that it's impossible to ignore thoughts. This is because one part of the brain, the monitor, is on the look out for the errant thought. Another part of the brain, the operator, is activated when the thought does occur. So the monitor, on the look out for the thought, is constantly activating the operator, which makes ignoring thoughts difficult. This is called the ironic process theory.

They’re not shy here. You don’t leave your food even for a minute. They’ll even steal your fries if you’re not looking. Why they’re a protected bird is beyond me. One time my daughter dropped a piece of chicken and the seagulls grabbed it then started fighting over it. That was entertaining.

From wiki:

"A series of puppet animation public information films, featuring Tufty Fluffytail and narrated by Bernard Cribbins were in regular broadcast rotation across the UK. Tufty Fluffytail, a childlike red squirrel character, was created in 1953 by Elsie Mills to introduce clear and simple safety messages to children. The success of the character led to the creation in 1961 of the Tufty Club for children under five years of age. Under its auspices more than 30,000 Tufty books about road safety were issued to parents. At its peak there were nearly 25,000 branches of the Tufty Club throughout the UK, and by the early 1970s an estimated two million children were members. The movement continued into the 1980s."

Squirrels say a lot with their tails and their chatter. Although their calls sometimes sound like they're scolding us — or the cat — most of them are alarm signals given both to warn off a predator and to warn other squirrels of danger.

Squirrels pretend to bury their nuts and acorns to protect them from would-be thieves, scientists say. Grey squirrels create numerous stores, especially when food is scarce, by digging shallow pits with their paws, pushing items in with their mouths and filling the holes up with debris.

Ignore, does it mean to not know?  ???


The “gno” stem is to do with knowledge. There is a Latin word which relates ignore to not learning rather than not knowing.

Ignoring your hunger sets your body up to physically rebel by making you focus only on eating and food. Your attempts to push down your hunger cause your brain to focus more and more on eating and food. Your body has one driving goal – survival. To survive your body must sleep, eat, reply on your favorite forum, and drink water.

Yes. I used to have upwords but I prefer scrabble. Especially dirty scrabble. It’s not just about dirty words, but it’s about breaking rules in general. Any word goes even if it’s misspelled if it’s funny. If the other player has something really good short of 1 letter then you can do a letter swap. All sorts of things as long as it’s fun and if it’s really good you take a picture of the board.

Well, sometimes I like to eat hot cereal, like Oatmeal or Cream of Wheat.  During the summer I'm more inclined to eat cold cereal like Cheerios or Chex.  We've been on a Kashi GO kick so that's what I had yesterday with milk, and mixed in a little "Cocoa Krispies" for that hint of chocolate.

I don't always have cereal for breakfast - for instance today I had Eggo toaster waffles, a banana, small juice and bacon.  Plus coffee.  Other than the bacon, that's a common breakfast for me (sans the bacon I'll typically have cheese).  Bacon's a "once in a while" treat.

I guess in the U.K. you would either have cereal such as cornflakes with cold milk or porridge/oats with hot milk, so saying cereal or porridge is all that is needed. Cream of Wheat is not a brand available in the U.K. as far as I know (unless maybe in foods of the world section)

I have a liquid breakfast. But, for lunch sometimes I will have cereal-usually granola with almond milk and if we have some-fruit, either bananas, blueberries and/or strawberries.

When we were allowed to go to restaurants, we used to go to Denny's for lunch but usually got breakfast. I miss those days.

My liquid breakfast is tea-no sugar, no nothin'-just water & a tea bag. That has been my breakfast for decades now. I usually eat lunch around 2 and dinner around 8-8:30, & dessert about 9:30.  ;D (Dessert is usually fruit or bread with a cheese spread, chips, or-my favorite-ICE CREAM! Sometimes it is something that the "chef" made.) A lot of people (including my sisters) wonder how I go so long before I eat during the day. I'm used to it. But, I must admit that are a couple of days (not many-maybe once in a couple of months) when my blood sugar will drop and then I need to eat something BEFORE lunch-but when that happens, it is usually just a short time before lunch.

I always thought that "board" meant THREE meals not two. That would have gotten under my skin, too.

When I went back to school (1990s), I was on lifetime number 2 and was a non-trad. When I told one of my sisters about going back to school, she asked if I was going to live in the dorm. WHAT? She thought that I would have more fun. I reminded her that I was at least 10 years older than most of those students and I asked her what I was supposed to do with all my furniture and (more importantly) my 4 cats. Of course she didn't have an answer.

Those were lean years but it really was a good time for me. I had a really nice apartment. I probably could have moved some place cheaper but my home was a priority. I also had a really good landlord. I lived there for 6 years and he never raised my rent. So, I was paying less than just about everyone else in the building. Of course food wasn't always high on the list. I guess I could have applied for food stamp but the idea never crossed my mind. I did eat-just not a lot. I was REALLY thin in those days.

I also did a lot of healing during that time. Not only was I getting my undergraduate and working on my graduate (which I never finished  :-[ ), I did a lot of writing-both personal and other. That was when I wrote my first book.

I cried when I moved out and I only moved out to move in with Carlos and gained 20 lbs in the first couple of months because he fed me. The funny thing is, after 20+ years, I still dream about that apartment.

Glad to hear things worked out in "lifetime number 2".  I also had a non-contiguous run through college.  When I returned to school after taking time off to work (fortunate was I to pick up work shortly after bailing on college attempt #1 mid-semester "in a heap"), it was as a transfer student, and unlike the first time I was now a commuter, returning to parents' home.  Now working, I paid for college and college expenses (though the folks provided room and board).  I continued working while a student - initially part time for both, later I got the opportunity to co-op, a school-sanctioned/employer-sanctioned repeated time slicing between study and paid internship (an amazing experience).

In retrospect I'm still grateful for the chance to spend a few years in dorm living, for the experiences, even with its annoyances and challenges.

I was really lucky. Uncle Sam paid for my undergraduate tuition, books and gave me a bit of a stipend every month I was in school (which is why I took a couple of summer classes each year). I wasn't living high on the hog but enough to get by. After graduating, I was no longer getting that stipend and had to pay for graduate school on my own (with A LOT of help from my grandmother). I had my AF pension but things were still VERY tight. Since graduate school was an independent study course, I was free to get a job-which I did working a substitute teacher (putting my teaching certification to work). Like I said, it was enough to get by even though things were tight. Until I moved in with Carlos and my expenses were cut in half. I didn't need to work anymore. Unfortunately, I withdrew from grad school with the intent of returning because I was burnt out and was so far behind. If I took an extra semester, that probably would have been ok but that would have cost me more $$$$$ than I had. Yeah, I never returned.  :-[

That narrows it down, although Peanut Jelly should be prioritized, some cities and countries have rather advanced delivery systems for ingredients and ready meals, and many businesses are now starting to offer this service. Some solutions include “contact-less” options, where no human interaction is required, thus supporting self-quarantine and isolation measures. Peanut Jelly should be prioritized, particularly from reliable businesses following strict food hygiene requirements. For food delivery and transportation, it is important to keep all jellies at safe temperatures (below 5 °C or above 60 °C). Keeping in mind that these services might be overwhelmed, you might want to consider exploring what is available in your area.

Aside from the fact that they may be eating your plants, marmots are not all that dangerous, preferring to lounge around all day instead of chasing you. As long as you leave them alone, they'll leave you alone. This means, however that they may bite you if you try to feed them or you accidentally disturb them.

Marmots belong to the squirrel family (Sciuridae) within the order Rodentia. The closest living relatives of marmots are ground squirrels and prairie dogs. Marmots' evolutionary history is recorded in North America by fossils of extinct species from the late Miocene Epoch (13.8 million to 5.3 million years ago)

Yeah, that is a FAT squirrel. I'm sure he was eating VERY well. (It was taken at the Grand Canyon-close to the concession stands.)

When I was a teenager and lived in rural Michigan, I'd sometimes see woodchucks running around the fields, despite that they were pretty shy when it came to humans.  It took me some time to figure out exactly what kind of critters they were (there was no Google then), but I recall noticing that signature stubby tail.


I was also a teenager in rural Michigan when my dad worked with a big guy named Chuck Wood. My dad started to say it and Chuck was like “don’t even say it... I’ve kicked a lot of guys “butts” for saying that “. So how much wood could Chuck Wood chuck if Chuck Wood could chuck wood?

I just looked it up and listened. A very unusual song to be a Christmas song. It doesn't seem to have much to do with Christmas, but at last it has one line "I wish I was home for Christmas". In the US we have a song that gets played every Christmas "My Favorite Things" from "The Sound of Music". People just accept this thing as a Christmas song but in reality it has nothing whatsoever to do with Christmas in any way. Very odd.

You should see me when I do dishes. I put on music and I'm singing my lungs out and dancing around.

I also sing in the shower-usually pretty loud (because Carlos is upstairs and won't hear it too much. If he was in the living room I wouldn't sing as loud). This is how it went one time:


Me: Summertime and the living is easy.

Voice from beyond the shower curtain:  Meow.

Me: Fish are jumping, and cotton is high.

Voice: Meow.

I looked outside of the shower to see Josette sitting there. She has done that many times before. I keep wondering if she is critiquing my singing or singing along. I think she is singing along.

I also always loved the cover art from this 1973 Jefferson Airplane live album "Thirty Seconds Over Winterland".  I just love the flying toaster clocks! In 1989 a company called Berkeley Systems pretty much ripped off the toaster art hook, line and sinker for an immensely popular "flying toaster" screensaver. Some of you of a certain age will remember it. In 1994 Jefferson Airplane sued, claiming that Berkeley Systems had stolen their toaster art. The Airplane lost, believe it or not.

1) Berkeley Systems claimed no prior knowledge of the album art (obviously a total lie).
2) Jefferson Airplane had failed to trademark the cover art (unfortunately true. People weren't as "brand" conscious in those days as they are now).

Even if it WASN'T because "guy" is a man, it's still enormously annoying to hear it every two seconds. It's replaced "you know" and "like" as THE annoying interjection.

Jelly shoes or jellies are shoes made of PVC plastic. Jelly shoes come in a large variety of brands and colors and the material is frequently infused with glitter. Its name refers to the semi-transparent materials with a jelly-like sheen.
PVC comes in two basic forms: rigid (sometimes abbreviated as RPVC) and flexible. The rigid form of PVC is used in construction for pipe and in profile applications such as doors and windows. It is also used in making bottles, non-food packaging, food-covering sheets, and cards (such as bank or membership cards). It can be made softer and more flexible by the addition of plasticizers, the most widely used being phthalates. In this form, it is also used in plumbing, electrical cable insulation, imitation leather, jelly shoes, flooring, signage, phonograph records, inflatable products, and many applications where it replaces rubber. With cotton or linen, it is used in the production of canvas.

Toucans are omnivorous. In the wild, they eat a variety of foods including a multitude of fruits and berries plus lizards, rodents, small birds, and an assortment of insects.

Gravy goes on lots of things besides turkey. Chicken, meatloaf, all kinds of things. Southern families in the US make biscuits and gravy. Some Italian-American families refer to their authentic, homemade tomato pasta sauce as "gravy". Of course, these are all very different types of gravy.

And most people don't know that it is NOT just for pancakes. The "chef" uses it in cooking all the time. It goes great on ham or pork. Sometimes he uses it in stir-frys. We also put it ice cream-especially vanilla. Unfortunately, it raises his blood sugar so he doesn't do it too often. (But even elevated, his numbers are not bad so he can get away with it once in a while.) We usually buy a gallon of it in the spring (when it is made) and most years it will last us until the following spring. The funny part about it is that we buy it at a local physical therapist's office. (Where else would you buy it? lol  :D ;D ;D ) Someone who works there owns the farm where it is made and they bring it in to be sold (along with maple walnuts, maple almonds, and other maple products).

Whenever we travel, we usually deposit jugs along our way at friends & family's houses where we visit.  We have dropped them off in Oklahoma, Texas, Tennessee, California, Ohio, Puerto Rico, Connecticut, & New York. (Yeah, I know Connecticut & New York can get their own but there is nothing like Vermont.) Just spreading the sweetness.

Our local grocery store is Shaws (used to be Grand Union). It is less than a half mile from where I am sitting right now. Could walk to it if I wanted to-but the "chef" does all the shopping and he drives there. (It is easier carrying the food back.)

For those of you in the northeast and know what Price Chopper is: It was once known as Central Markets and was a pioneer in the modern day grocery store. (Before, you would have to go to a butcher, and go to a bakery, and go to a dry goods store, etc. etc.) One of the founding members was my great-grandfather.

Aldi Specially Selected maple syrup is 100% Canadian maple syrup. The other supermarkets sell it as well, just make sure it is maple syrup and not maple flavour like Askeys Treat sauce.
When I can it will be maple syrup next time I have pancakes.

Wow all that sounds good. Someday I will be able to eat stuff like that again. Please never take it for granted. My favorite has always been Log Cabin. Real maple syrup is just too strong for my taste.

I Ignored this thread for like a week upon returning had 4 pages to ignore.

It is probably fake syrup. We have a few stores that we refer to as "The Dented Can Store" which is a discount food store. Sometimes we can find the real stuff there. You never know what you are going to find there.

We went to one today and they were GIVING AWAY cans of water chestnuts (they have been doing this for a while and we pretty much have a lifetime supply of them in our pantry), bottles of mayoketchup, and ranch dip.

I almost always prefer how the cheap stuff tastes . Off brand cookies, cereal, chips, toaster pastries, cereal bars, Mac and liquid cheese in the box, soup, crackers. The less actual food content the better I tend to feel. Only one place I draw the line and that’s with the super cheap cheese that tastes like oil and water. Velveeta or Kraft is great.

The Cheeseshop Sketch (Monty Python's Flying Circus)


(a customer walks in the door.)

Customer (John Cleese): Good Morning.

Owner (Michael Palin): Good morning, Sir. Welcome to the National Cheese Emporium!

Customer: Ah thank you my good man.

Owner: What can I do for you, Sir?

C: Well, I was, uh, sitting in the public library on Thurmon Street just now, skimming through 'Rogue Herrys' by Hugh Walpole, and I suddenly came over all peckish.

O: Peckish, sir?

C: Esuriant.

O: Eh?

C: 'Ee I were all 'ungry-like!

O: Ah, hungry!

C: In a nutshell. And I thought to myself, 'a little fermented curd will do the trick', so, I curtailed my Walpoling activites, sallied forth, and infiltrated your place of purveyance to negotiate the vending of some cheesy comestibles!

O: Come again?

C: I want to buy some cheese.

O: Oh, I thought you were complaining about the bouzouki player!

C: Oh, heaven forbid: I am one who delights in all manifestations of the Terpsichorean muse!

O: Sorry?

C: 'Ooo, Ah lahk a nice tune, 'yer forced to!

O: So he can go on playing, can he?

C: Most certainly! Now then, some cheese please, my good man.

O: (lustily) Certainly, sir. What would you like?

C: Well, eh, how about a little Red Leicester.

O: I'm, a-fraid we're fresh out of Red Leicester, sir.

C: Oh, never mind, how are you on Tilsit?

O: I'm afraid we never have that at the end of the week, sir, we get it fresh on Monday.

C: Tish tish. No matter. Well, stout yeoman, four ounces of Caerphilly, if you please.

O: Ah! It's beeeen on order, sir, for two weeks. Was expecting it this morning.

Tell me about it. We just got a new car. We only had our older car for two years (yeah, the dealer made us an offer we couldn't refuse-AGAIN). I was a little sad to see that car go and there really wasn't any reason why. It had lost its "new car smell" about a year ago.  :D ;D ;D ;D

Me? No. That was part of the reason why we sold it. For years, I was fine and then all of a sudden for some strange reason I developed a phobia when I was on the boat. We only went out on Lake Champlain (the southern end) and land is always in sight. (We rarely went out in the broad lake.) And I'm a good swimmer.

I know Carlos misses it. He is the sailor. One of his favorite quotes is:

You can teach a man to sail but you can't teach him why.

The weirdest thing happened one time when we were out on the Lake. I saw one of his past lives-an Irish fisherman in the 19th century. It was the strangest thing. I have NEVER seen anyone's past life before.

On 23 November 2011, Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan gave an apology for the confusion, describing it as "one of the most tragic events of our near history" adding that, whilst some sought to justify it as a legitimate response to events on the ground, it was in reality "an operation which was planned step by step".

It was featured in the award winning 1943 film "Hefnd Gelatínuskóna" directed by Paul Myshosoff.

When we went to see this last year, the woman who sang it came out into the audience. I saw her scan around and then she saw Carlos sitting on the end of the aisle. She came over to him, sat on his lap, singing away. It was pretty funny.

I have been looking for a video of the song but can't find it anywhere. It is not even on the soundtrack to the play.

I made a couple custom household "dust covers".  I bought some new placemats and decided I wanted to keep them out of the dust, so I made them a zipper cover.  Previously my old placemats were filled with dust when I wanted to use them.  I also made a cover for some cutting mats I had in the kitchen for the same reason.  The cutting mats cover was in my mind a long time, the placemats cover was a new idea.  (Interestingly, for both I decided to use a cut up tablecloth instead of fabric, as I liked its pattern.)  Now I'm trying to decide whether to make a couple more fabric coasters (I made two already) - the fabrics I use coordinate with the decor.

You made a cover for the placemats which are a cover for the table. A cover for the covers! Reminds me of the episode of "Friends" where Monica vacuums the floor, then she vacuums the VACUUM with a smaller vacuum.

Except these placemats aren't full-time placemats; I only use them on certain occasions.  I store them on a shelf of an Ikea glass tower, and to my dismay they (the old ones) were full of dust when I last went to use them.  I'm glad I no longer need to worry about dusty placemats now with the new attractive zipper cover - which looks good sitting on the glass tower shelf.

So this morning I had a "Wow! I didn't know that" moment followed by a "Why didn't I know that" moment.

I was doing housework and like I normally do, I turned on a CD. Today's choice was Buffalo Springfield. The only thing that I really know about Buffalo Springfield is "For What it's Worth" which was the reason why I bought the CD. So, I just put the entire album on and went about my work. One song came on and I said to myself, "Self, that sounds like Neil Young." I looked at the album jacket and sure enough, it was Neil Young-along with "Steve" Stills. WHAT?? Neil Young and Stephan Stills were in Buffalo Springfield? I didn't know that. And then I was like, Why didn't I know that?

Yes Neil Young and Stephen Stills were in the Buffalo Springfield, as was Richie Furay, who later went on to be in Poco. When Stills (and later Young) joined forces with David Crosby from The Byrds and Graham Nash from the Hollies they became known as "the first American supergroup".  The entire reason they chose the name Crosby, Stills & nash (and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young) is become they had all come from these other bands beset with problems. people leaving, new people coming in, etc. So by choosing a band name that specifically had their names in it (and sounding somewhat like a law firm), the band could only exist if it actually had those specific people in it.

No, that's just what lithographs are. They are designed to be reproduced in limited, expensive, numbered editions. Keep in mind, the original exhibition where the bust took place was in an art gallery, not a museum. Things in art galleries are meant to be sold.

I KNEW you would know this. I didn't know that Crosby was with the Byrds and Nash was with the Hollies. Why didn't I know this?  :-[



Cat

Then you definitely won't know that CSN were brought together by none other than Cass Elliot, sometimes known as "the Gertrude Stein of Laurel Canyon". She knew that three fine harmony singers like that belonged together. Crosby had been tossed out of the Byrds for being difficult to work with and Nash left the Hollies as he felt they were not adventurous enough for the direction he was going in after hearing singer/songwriters like Crosby, Stills and Joni Mitchell. To this day, on any group or solo album by CSN members they thank Cass Elliot in the credits.

O0 As always, good info!

As an unrelated aside, the reference to "Laurel Canyon" conjures up some very concrete pictures for me.  Given the time I've spent in the L.A. area, I've driven on or around Laurel Canyon a whole lot - my brother's family was living just a street off of it for a while.  They've since moved, but are still in the San Fernando Valley area.

But you'd best ignore that.

John Lennon’s Bag One, an exhibition of lithographs including several containing erotic imagery, had opened on 15 January 1970. Just 24 hours later it was raided by police officers, who confiscated eight of the 14 original artworks on the grounds of indecency.

              THE RIVER

    From my window I see a river that bends and curves with
the tide.  It runs pass my house but it's not that wide.
    The smell of fish is in the air and I stare at the river
without a care.
    The river soothes my mind when it is heavy with fright.
It also sings me to sleep when I'm in my bed at night.
    Sometimes I feel like the river, free to run to the sea.
I have high days and low days and days where I just want
people to let me be.
    The river is like my mind, moving with a constant flow.
Other times when a storm builds it rocks to and fro.
    I see myself in the river, not like looking in the
glass. I see the river's bed as my past.
    I started long ago from a mountain top when I was small and
just a stream. I will end at the sea when I will no longer be
able to dream.
    The river is never ending unlike me which time is short
to live. When I am forgotten, the river will still be here
with all the joy still to give.

Vision

Twenty twenty
Not ABC documentary news -
Flash; get the picture?
Out of focus, sharp images set in contrast
Good and Evil - Life and Death - Black and White
Adjustment preeminent, gray areas finally erased - not before
Hindsight is out of sight -
Blinded by status quos
Mirroring bygone likenesses’
Illusory forms, intellectually misled - spiritually dead
Sight gags, cataracts with panoramic view -
Now you see them; now you don’t
Cloud gathering by invitation only
Yesterday’s headlines:
Could have, should have, would have!

The rear bearings have been going out for awhile. I ignored it because there was no way I would be able to fix it until I healed up from surgery. It’s not really difficult, just a lot of work and I have to make a tool to press the bearings out. But way cheaper and easier than hauling in a new washer.

I planned to ignore this thread today but got caught up doing some laundry...


I started some more laundry this morning but I almost forgot about it.  Had I continued to ignore it, the laundry might start to smell musty, so since I caught it in time I put it in the dryer.

Incidentally, the dryer is 40 years old.  But it still works.  We haven't replaced it because it's difficult to find a suitable replacement.  This Spring the door stopped latching.  Just before that, its timer knob cracked.  I tried to find a replacement for the timer knob but to no avail. so I was able to get it to work with some Gorilla glue (or something similar).  Hopefully it holds up a while.  As for the door not latching, we tried to fix it but couldn't even get the old screws off.  We had to prop a big box against it to keep the door from flying open - so annoying.  So two weeks ago we had a repairman come fix the door.  He did a good job but it cost us $$.  Such is life.  I'm just glad it's done.

One thing I have learned is that appliances break-it doesn't matter how young or old they are. And the more bells and whistles on them, the more things can go wrong.

A few months ago, I went to run the dishwasher and it sounded very strange. When it was done, I realized that it was trying to "dry clean" the dishes. Great. Just what I needed, a busted dishwasher. We bought it right before we moved into the house-about 6 years or so. Naturally, the warranty expired last year.  >:(  It needed to be fixed so the (Sears) repair guy came.

What had happened, was the apron on the dishwasher didn't want to stay on. It was like that since day one, practically. Since it wasn't hurting the operation, we didn't bother with it. But our little Luna(tic) decided that playing with the wires under the dishwasher was a lot of fun and pulled the line that feeds the water to the dishwasher. The repair guy put the apron back one so Luna(tic) couldn't do that again. (He also fixed the little doohicky that sits on the end of the upper rack that kept falling off.) I can't remember how much that little bit cost us. But, at least the apron is on the way it is supposed to be.

Anyway, the repair guy told us that Sears has a repair service that will cover just about all our appliances-even the ones that are ancient and the ones we did not buy from Sears. The dishwasher, refridge, stove, microwave, washer, dryer are all covered.

https://www.searshomeservices.com/home-warranty/compare-home-warranty-plans

Oh, and our repair guy said that the systems plan isn't worth it.

Now, our only worry is if Sears is going to be around for a while longer.  :-\\

Six years young and needing repair!  That stinks  :-\\

As you remind me, our dishwasher has been out of commission for over a year.  It's currently being a giant dish-drying rack!  But it was about 10 when it died, not 6.  We are shopping for a replacement - slowly, as it's been at least a year.  I guess I'm used to hand-washing again.  With the dryer, on the other hand, we don't have a work-around - our little condo doesn't have a clothesline on the balcony LOL.  And I'm not willing to do the weekly haul off to the laundromat...

marshmallow fluff.


A Fluffernutter! Peanut butter and Marshmallow Fluff. I haven't had one since I was a kid. They were very popular then. The sugar content in that sandwich alone is enough to send a person sailing into a diabetic coma. Marshmallow Fluff is also a frequent and delicious ingredient in homemade fudge.

Marshmallow Fluff has a high sugar content. Mostly corn syrup.

Marshmallows (UK: /mɑːrʃˈmæloʊ/, US: /ˈmɑːrʃmɛloʊ, -mæl-/) are types of confectionery that is typically made from sugar, water and gelatin whipped to a squishy consistency.

We used to make what we referred to as an "Arffer Special" (named after my sister's boyfriend at the time-Arthur). He taught us how to make it.

3 slices of bread: One with peanut butter, one with Fluff, and one with jelly. Haven't had one in DECADES but I do recall they were very yummy. Of course that was when Fluff was made with REAL sugar and not corn syrup.

I used to live in an apartment complex where the washers & dryers all had names-they were written right on the machine. So, you could call the maintenance person and say, "Betty got a sock caught in her throat" or "Martha is not getting hot." :D ;D ;D

If we lived where there were shared machines (like my Mom's condo), it sure would be helpful to give them names, or at least numbers.  Our machines are our own, so if it's broke, guess who has to fix it...

Yup. Her name is Josette. She doesn't "meow" but she "peep" so many times I call her "Peep." I would also call her "Little Josette" even though she not so little any more. One day, I was getting the two names mixed up and it came out "Little Jo Peep" which is now added to the names I call her.

And yeah, every night she come up for attention. She walks all over us. It is funny because she will put her nose under our arms and push with her head so we will pet her. She sometimes does that in the middle of the night when we are sound asleep.

I'm gonna add some of that to the poem, too. I just haven't gotten there yet.

The strange thing is that if that expression (もしもし) was only developed in response to developments in telecommunications, there may have never been a word before then that simply meant "Hi" in that language. Because konnichiwa actually meant "good day", specifically noon to afternoon. Kuhn-buhn-wa means good evening.

I say "may" for words other than もしもし meaning "Hi" because Slowpoke probably knows more Japanese than me, so maybe he could tell you more about this.

You probably know more than me, it has been a while since I studied it. Although I listen to Japanese rock music (I've got some recommendations if you want ;)) so I haven't forgot all of it.

@Elor is right that もしもし (moshi moshi) is "hello" for the phone.

You are also right that お早う (ohayou) translates to "Good morning". 早 is the character for "early".

You're both right that 今日は (konnichiwa) means "good day"/"hello". I think it can be used as a general hello, although I might be wrong on that. 今 (kon) is that character for "now" and 日 (nichi) is "day". (If you noticed, the character for early 早 is composed of the character for day 日 and the number ten 十; might make it easy for you to remember  ;))

今晩は (konbanwa) means good evening. 今 (kon) is the same as above. 晩 (ban) is not a common character in Korean so I'm not familiar with it, but looking in the dictionary it means "late".

I know this. When I first looked up the direct translation for "Hi", my phrasebook had a note in parentheses that said "for phone". So I know it could be used for the phone, but exactly how old that word is, possibly indicating it was adapted for phone usage rather than made anew if it is that old, I don't know.

Konnichiwa means, most literally, "good day", even though it is the phrase most often used in the context of a general greeting, that is true.

In short, there are 50 ways to say hello in Japanese depending on context and formality, along with bowing and other mandatory pleasantries that need to be exchanged when greeting someone. Good luck learning learning that language :P ;D

Yeah, I gave up real quick on learning the language. Yes, I did want to learn a new language, but I just settled for Japanese because I felt like learning the language of a country that is both geographically near and rich was more practical than what I wanted to learn. (Spanish.)

I mean I have massive difficulties remembering most of the song titles or the names of the band members but I love their mix of traditional Japanese and western instruments. They also have a huge range of styles ranging from almost heavy metal... :

... to really soft ballads..:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2jeCJ-uzUc

... and plenty of J-pop in the middle.

But most people here will ignore that. ;)


That was kickass. They sound similar to MintJam which is a hard rock band that introduced me to Japanese music too. :D


Yeah, I gave up real quick on learning the language. Yes, I did want to learn a new language, but I just settled for Japanese because I felt like learning the language of a country that is both geographically near and rich was more practical than what I wanted to learn. (Spanish.)


I would stick to languages from cultures you are interested in and IGNORE the rest.

Thanks. It was sounding like bowling balls on a metal roof even with the door closed. Kinda hard to ignore that. It’s so quiet now you can barely hear it spin. The whole thing had to come apart. I took 2 days cleaning 18 years of lime buildup from all the parts. I also did some research and put in higher quality bearings and seals than the kits from eBay or Amazon and still did it for about $50. As long as I can find parts I’ll get another 18 years from it.

I usually do 1 load a week so I ignore it for 2 weeks then do it in one evening. It does big loads.

Sounds like us. We have one basket right in front of the washer for dirty clothes. The laundry room is on the second floor with only the bathroom separating it from our bedroom. And my "closet" IS the laundry room where I have 3 dressers, two jewelry armoires (one has a full-length mirror), a vanity plus the small closet in the room. Yeah, I have A LOT of clothes-but only wear a fraction of them. (I know, I know. I need get rid of some-AGAIN.) Carlos has 2 dressers in the bedroom plus the small closet in there. The only things to be dragged around is when I am doing towels (having to bring them upstairs from the bathroom where we shower).

When the clothes come out of the dryer, they go into another basket. I SOMETIMES fold the clothes in the clean basket if it starts to overflow. Carlos really doesn't like it when I fold the clothes because then he has to put them away because I use the washer as a folding table and I can't do another load until he puts his clothes away.


New Years Resolution (which has been the same resolution for the past I don't know how many years now) is to reorganize that room. But, in the meanwhile, I just ignore it.

Regardless of leap year, during the period you were 14, you ate 94-95 of those packs a day. If the pack was 25 cents like internet pictures I see, you spent $23.63 a day on the candy.

I remember when they were a penny each. When I was REALLY young, I used to call them "Nallen Ate-ers". lol. I guess that is what happens when all the kids who were buying them had New "Yowk" accents. lol. It wasn't until I was much older when I learned the REAL name.

Good and Plenty is basically black licorice with a crunchy candy coating (not a knock - I like it - that's just what I believe they are)


Did they ever make chocolate Now and Laters?


My aging brain seems to recall that Now and Laters, when I first saw them ('69 or '70), originally came in more flavors, and the flavors were whittled down over time.  As I believe they had other flavors there is a slight chance that chocolate was among them, but I'm a bit doubtful about that.  Fruit flavors always dominated their repertoire.

Black licorice has a desired taste,
and tastes so awfully funny.
I avoid this kind of sweet,
but gives you a good run for your money.

The stove pot heat melted the candy coating and I was left with licorice at the end.

The reason American English dropped the ‘u’ in words like ‘colour’ is because in modern English, there is no need for the ‘u’ anymore, British English decided to be conservative in its spelling and keep the ‘u’ to indicate how it was pronounced as.

But are there Australian tourists in Japan?

Is is funny that you should ask that because on that cruise he was telling us that when he told someone that he was from Australia, that person asked, "Do you know Crocodile Dundee?" He told us that he told the guy, "Yeah, he is my uncle."  :D ;D ;D


Oh, funny story about this guy on that same cruise. It was a Greek cruise and the put us English speaking people together at a table for dinner. Our waiter was Greek and didn't speak a word of English but he seemed like a really nice guy-always smiling and such.

The last night on the cruise was "Greek night" and they had to nets along with wall with a plastic crabs and such hanging from them. At one point during dinner, our waiter takes one of those plastic crabs and puts in under the Aussie's chair. We are all giggling at this point. The Aussie then looks under his chair to see what we are all giggling at. Sees the crab and raises it above his head and almost yells, "I got crabs." By this time I am laughing really hard. Then he said, "I got them from him" pointing to our waiter. I almost totally lost it at that point. I sure no one else in the dinning room knew what we were laughing at (including our waiter) because I'm not too sure how many of them spoke/understood English.

Shouldn't a lawyer have his own computer at hand when attending a virtual court? Doesn't sound very professional to me to rely on someone else's hardware. I guess he ignored that bad things can happen in court when you're not properly prepared. ::)

It is stupid, but this one from Chime takes the cake. This woman dives me crazy. Her babbling is barely understandable. She says she "boasts" to her co-workers that she got paid early. Who does that? Not exactly a way to make friends at work.  Not to mention, if you get paid "early" the same time every single pay period it's not "early", it's just the time you get paid. She also speaks in an annoying combination of "uptalk" and "vocal fry", "I get my paycheck up to two days earrrrllllyyyy?". And what's up with that Halloween eye-makeup? Is that a thing now? Thank God I don't have co-workers like this!

I don't know if I posted the complete "Ode To Josette." (If I did, then forgive the repeat.)

Little Jo Peep won't let us sleep when she wants us to pet her.
She comes up at night, after we turn out the light
With her little "peep" and a purr.

She totally ignores us during the day.
But at night she has a lot to say.
"Pet me, Mommy. Pet me, Daddy.
Because I am NOT going to go away."

I lie on my belly when I hit the sack.
She walks up my legs, my butt and my back.

There on my back she will just stand.
After a few moments, "PEEP"
She will demand.

I reach around to give her a pet.
The first of her demands have been met.

She will give me a massage by marching in place.
Or she will comb my hair or put her paw on my face.

Her little "Peep" and purr are hard to hear.
Except when she puts her nose in my ear.

She pushes her nose under my arm.
She knows that will work like a charm.

She will head for my feet with one last "Peep."
Little Josette is ready for sleep.

But not to worry that is the end of the fun.
She will do it all over again before the night is done.



Yeah, she has done ALL of that at one time or another. I may decide to add one or two more verses to include how she tries to nurse from my side.  :D ;D ;D ;D

The second one.
Emus have been ‘clocked’ at 31mph and can run great distances too, if needs be. Even though its flightless, the emu still has wings. The emu uses them to cool themselves down. They stretch them out and allow air to move around the body. They also use them when they’re running at top speed to steer themselves in the right direction. Emus are ‘nomadic’. This means they don’t stay in one spot for very long and take advantage of the food that is available in an area and move on when they need to.

Emus do not bury they heads in the sand, you are thinking of the ostrich, but contrary to the popular myth, ostriches do not bury their heads in the sand! When an ostrich senses danger and cannot run away, it flops to the ground and remains still, with its head and neck flat on the ground in front of it. Because the head and neck are lightly colored, they blend in with the color of the soil.

It is louder some days than for me, and it sounds high frequency pitch which is continuous. Somedays it can be with a lower pitch sound (double sounds), those days I rest more. My doctor tells me things are still fine, and nothing to worry about.

I usually try for more but it was a good word to get a turnover on my letters and hope for higher value ones. And at least I was still winning.  :)

I have been playing Scrabble since the mid 1970s, but have not played on a board with tiles fro a long time now. The board in your post caught my eye, and I spent a little while trying to work out a higher score, then I started the urge to ignore it.

I prefer the physical game and I have 3 or 4 sets. But I prefer to ignore the rules and points and play anything that goes. Dirty words, phrases, names. If it’s really funny then an I can be a hyphen, or misspell it, run it off the board, knowingly swap a letter. Anything goes as long as we have fun. Only thing is I haven’t found anyone who likes to do this anymore.

These days I play Scrabble on my tablet, against the computer.  So does my husband, on his phone.  We haven't played regular Scrabble for who knows how long (in fact I just purchased the game board a few months ago).  But we enjoy clobbering the computer!  ;D

"Guinness World Records, known from its inception in 1955 until 1999 as The Guinness Book of Records and in previous United States editions as The Guinness Book of World Records, is a reference book published annually, listing world records both of human achievements and the extremes of the natural world. The brainchild of Sir Hugh Beaver, the book was co-founded by twin brothers Norris and Ross McWhirter in Fleet Street, London, in August 1954."

The episode follows the main characters' misadventures during a weekend visiting friends in the Hamptons: everyone but George sees George's girlfriend topless on the beach, Elaine is puzzled by a man's use of the word "breathtaking", Kramer steals lobsters from a commercial fishing trap, and George is a victim of "shrinkage" when Jerry's girlfriend sees him changing after he came out of the pool.

We're unorthodox so we're really not that Kosher.



I'm not Kosher either.


Funny Kosher family stories:

-My grandfather & great-grandfather were very Kosher but every Sunday they would go to a Chinese restaurant and order sweet & sour pork.

-When my grandmother was living in a Jewish retirement community, we joined her for a Passover Seder. When it was time for dinner, my sister asked, "What's for dinner, pork?" (Oy vey!)

We don't have a Red Lobster around here. Usually, we will go to a local restaurant on birthdays but last year, we were in lockdown. I asked the "chef" what he was gonna make and he said a chicken stir-fry. He lied to me because his sister was staying with us at the time and she went to the store and brought home 3 lobstahs. That's what we had for his birthday & our anniversary.

There was a little hole in the wall place somewhere in Maine that we once stopped at for clam "chowdah". It was SUPER busy because they sold THE BEST clam "chowdah" I have EVER had in my life. Unfortunately, I couldn't find that place again if my life depended on it.

It has been too long since we have made a trip to Maine. Maybe next year we can go again. (BTW, Maine is my second favorite state in the union. You can guess what my first is.  :D ;D ;D )

If you ever go to Maine again, even though Bar Harbor & Mount Desert Island are nice, there are very crowded, and very expensive. You should go to the northern area of Acadia National Park in Winter Harbor. Is is just as beautiful as Mount Desert Island but less crowded and less expensive.

Also, if you ever get to Belfast (along Route 1 south of Bangor), you really need to stop at Perry's Nut House. They have THE BEST fudge! Actually, you don't really need to go to Belfast to get the fudge: http://www.perrysnuthouse.com/

I order from them from time to time. Hmmm, it has been a while. Maybe I should place an order.

I keep thinking of that scene in Flashdance where the guy said if she could eat another lobster, it was free. I would LOVE to see how many lobsters I could actually eat in one sitting.

One time we were in Maine. We stopped for lunch and had lobster & clams. Then we started heading for home. Before leaving the state, we stopped for dinner. Their special that night was dinner for 2: lobster & clams. I said to Carlos, "I could have it again." So, we did. I don't think I could EVER get sick of lobster-at least I never had the chance to prove that I could.

I don't mind lobster if it is served out of the shell, but I absolutely cannot deal with one in the shell. I refuse to sit there with a pickaxe, chisel, power saw, explosives and whatever else It takes to get into that impenetrable shell. I'm not a safecracker. And then there's the matter of all that gross green gunk that's inside the shell besides the delectable meat. I am told some people actually consider it a delicacy, but you could have fooled me. Not to mention that once you do crack the shell enough water pours out to drown a horse. All in all, too much of a challenging eating experience.  :D

Truth be told, I'd rather just avoid them altogether. it makes me nervous to see something boiled alive like that.

Carlos loves that green stuff so I give him mine. He give me the legs from his. Yeah, it is very messy and sometimes they do bite back. To me, it is worth it. I just think of it as almost a zero calorie meal because for the amount of calories in the lobster, you burn that up getting it out of the shell. Of course the butter totally cancels the zero calorie meal.

He came over with the net ready to scoop my crab up. But, I looked down and saw a massive one just taking his daily walk and I said, "Look that that one!" The net guy scooped him up-and that was the biggest one anyone caught that day. And we enjoyed eating them that night.

I know I have told this story before but I think it is so funny that it is worth repeating.

I went on a cruise in the Mediterranean way back in the dark ages. It was a Greek company. We had "assigned" tables for dinner-which was good because they put all of us English speaking people at the same table. We had one guy from Australia who I thought was so funny. Our waiter was Greek who didn't speak a word of English. The last night on the cruise, they had "Greek" night and they had those nets on the walls with plastic fake crabs hanging from them. At one point, our waiter took down one of those crabs and put it under the seat of the Aussie. We were all stifling our giggles. The Aussie realized something was up as he looked under his seat one way and then the other. He picked up the crab, raised it above his head and just about yelled, "I GOT CRABS!" Our giggles turned into roars of laughter. Then the Aussie points to the waiter and says very loud, "I got them from him." OMG! I almost fell off my chair laughing so hard.

Howard you probably are referring to "imitation crab" which is a pretty common thing here, used a lot in inexpensive salads.  It's essentially flavored white fish that is processed.  I like it ok, and have no qualms about eating it - but naturally it's not the real thing.

MSG is a kind of salt, a salt of the amino acid called glutamic acid. Glutamate imparts a unique taste to foods. Japanese professor Kikunae Ikeda, who discovered MSG, described it as umami, or the fifth taste after sweet, salty, sour and bitter. This taste is also often described as savoury, or xian wei in Chinese.

Crabby

I am a crab
Who walks the shore
And pinches toes all day.

If I were you
I’d wear some shoes
And not get in my way.

Smell-O-Vision:

Smell-O-Vision was a system that released odor during the projection of a film so that the viewer could "smell" what was happening in the movie. The technique was created by Hans Laube and made its only appearance in the 1960 film Scent of Mystery, produced by Mike Todd Jr., son of film producer Mike Todd. The process injected 30 odors into a movie theater's seats when triggered by the film's soundtrack.

What I missed and now wish to had experience, it was seeing "Earthquake" (1974), it is notable for the use of an innovative sound effect called Sensurround, which created the sense of actually experiencing an earthquake in theatres.

For me, I was in a workplace lab by myself in the morning hours.  There were times I heard noises there like someone rolling a dumpster around in the warehouse-like building.  So that morning I heard a loud "bang", then a noise like someone was rolling a gigantic dumpster - but it was early morning.  At first I said to myself angrily "what so-and-so is rolling around that huge dumpster at this ungodly hour" - then glanced at the clock and noticed it shaking.  I quickly tumbled under the metal desk where I was working and stayed there.  Petrified.  :o

I didn't leave that position until someone else came into the room and he told me it was safe to come out.  I had to think about it a while before I'd move, despite his assurances (I think he was laughing at me but I didn't care).  I finally got back to work; shortly afterward I heard another loud "bang" but no "dumpster" noise this time.  I thought a nearby vending machine had fallen over (it hadn't).  But I was told that was an aftershock.  It seems the earthquake was centered across the city several miles from my location, so I was surprised to feel so shook up.  But I was.  Freaky!

That was the only substantial earthquake I experienced - but I did experience some aftershocks visiting L.A. in the near aftermath of the horrible 1994 Northridge quake.

The first one I was in, I was in Greece. A friend of mind & I went downtown for dinner. We had just gotten off of the bus, and we were crossing the street. I was looking down as I was stepping up onto the sidewalk from the street. I can't remember if it was me or my friend who said, "Look, the sidewalk is moving." Then I heard a BANG and realize what was going on. My instincts was to grab her arm and said, "AN EARTHQUAKE!" I think it was about a 4.8 and we were roughly about 20 miles from the epicenter.

We then went on to dinner but I couldn't eat. I was (dare I say) shaken up. We felt tremors for the rest of the evening-after shocks. There wasn't any major damage where we were but at the epicenter-well, that was in the middle of a major city and they had some damage. My entire stay there, I had felt tremors. Can't tell you how many times at work someone would look up from their desk and say, "Did you feel that?"

Fast forward to 2002. It was a Saturday morning and Carlos & I were asleep. We were waken up by the house shaking. I said to him, "Is this what I think it is?" He said, "An earthquake." I wasn't too sure because trucks has gone by our house and it shakes. It was a 5.1 and the epicenter was about 100 miles from here. We didn't have any damage-in fact, the pictures didn't even fall but got a bit askewed.

Quisp is a baked paste of corn meal and syrup shaped like saucers. The taste is similar to fellow Quaker Oats cereal, Cap'n Crunch. Quake cereal was produced by the same process and ingredients, but shaped like gears. Packaging as of 2012 carries the tagline on the front panel, "Crunchy Corn Cereal", and on side panels, "QUAZY Energy Cereal".

Ingredients
Main ingredients: Corn flour, sugar, oat flour, brown sugar, coconut oil, salt. Vitamins and other additives: niacinamide, reduced iron, zinc oxide, yellow 5, yellow 6, thiamin mononitrate, pyridoxine hydrochloride, BHT, riboflavin, folic acid."

Similar with Mount Fuji, or Fujiyama in Japan, for many a person name it as Mount Fujiyama, which is tautology (a phrase or expression in which the same thing is said twice in different words), for yama on Japanese means mountain, so Mount Fuji Mountain.

  There is a red cardinal who tries to get into my Literature class.
  He just keeps banging his head upon the glass.
  Why would you want to come in, you silly bird?
  Could it be that you like what you heard?
  Do you like the plays by Shakespeare, Williams or Ibsen? 
  Or do you like the poetry of Frost, Browning or Tennyson?
  Do you want to hear the stories like "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty"?
  Or do you want to hear "Eleanor Rigby"?
  Why do you want to come into the class?
  With all you have heard, do you think you can pass?
  Class will be over soon. Then you will have to sing your own poetry to the moon.
  Fly away and tell the stories you have heard
    And we all can say that we knew a Literary Bird.



And yes, there really was a bird who kept banging on the glass. After I don't know how many days, someone taped a paper towel over the window.

One of the things I love best about baseball is in this thread (the video, from this past summer):

BTW, they say if you see a cardinal, it is a visit from Heaven. But, I have cardinals living in my backyard so does that mean someone in Heaven won't leave me alone? (That I can believe. It would be my mother.)

No, two different things.
Bees are often confused with wasps because they have a similar shape. However, wasps have distinct yellow/black bands around the abdomen whereas bees have a more non-descript light brown/brown-yellow colour. Honey bees are social insects and live in a nest which may contain several thousand workers.

They are nasty.

One time when we were in the dinghy rowing back from the mooring where we had the sailboat, I was sitting there in a tee shirt and shorts as Carlos rowed, minding my own business when, "OUCH!" on my arm. Followed by "OUCH!" again. Carlos told me to take off my shirt. He said, "You have a bra on-take it off!" I did and it had gone but I'm sitting in the dinghy in the middle of the lake without a shirt on.  :-[ But man, did my arm hurt like a "mutter!" I was fighting back the tears that how bad it was.

Another time, We had a nest under our porch. I was walking out got stung. Carlos also got stung by one, too but not as bad as I was. When we returned, we went in through the back door where he grabbed a can of Raid to get rid of them. My ankle (where I was stung) was super red for almost a week. It hurt like a "mutter"!

Ouch indeed.

We once had a wasps nest on our balcony, for several months we avoided it, and when it was colder in November or December, we moved I away. Technically in the winter, the wasps are not alive, making it easier to host their eviction.

I know. And at night, too. But, like I said, their nest was under the porch-in the ground and we couldn't see it. And they were attacking us as we were leaving the house. So, they had to go THAT DAY! We didn't have the luxury of waiting. The thing was, we didn't have much Raid left so Carlos had to go to the store to get another can. I think he used most of that second can on the nest-he was basically spraying all around since he really didn't know where the nest was. But, he must have gotten it because we didn't see another yellow jacket from that day on.

Many years ago during those hot summers in New York, bees and/or wasps flew right into my room, they were sitting on my bedroom window ledge, I got rid of them by just turning on the vacuum and sucking them up or just use Raid.

Spraying the nest with a garden hose from afar is a quick solution to your wasp problem. All you have to do is spray the nest with the most jet-like water setting and since the nests are made of papery substance, they'll get destroyed.

Better you than me. I guess I have been stung too many times (one time even on the lip when I was about 9 years old  :o ). Now, I see a bee or a wasp, I call Carlos. I know, I laugh that I am afraid of something that is not even an inch long. Another thing could be my vision. I hear them but can't see them.


I used to know this guy who also had Retinitus Pigmentosa (RP). We belonged to the same visually impaired organization. He used to be an artist (painter) before losing his vision. As his eyesight was dimming, he learned of this woman in England who could "cure" RP. So, he went to England. The "cure" consisted of being stung on the neck multiple times by bees. Of course the "cure" didn't work and today he is blind. Of course he is no longer an artist but a writer. (I'm sure he wouldn't remember me.)

Cheerio is not mentioned in the words for "So Long Farewell" from The Sound of Music, but is in "Be Back Soon" from Lionel Bart's Oliver!

"But they don't know this tune

I've posted this before, but it's worth repeating.

I remember these full page ads for Todd Rundgren's classic "Something/Anything" album which included the hits "Hello It's Me", "I Saw The Light" and "Couldn't I Just Tell You". A killer album, but an ad like this would be utterly UNTHINKABLE today. But it was everywhere in 1972.

Here is "Kites" by Simon Dupree and the Big Sound.

hbS2KmEecTo

With apologies, I cannot hear it myself, the song should be complete with the spoken interlude in Chinese, composed of "sweet nothings" and performed by the actress Jacqui Chan. The spoken words are in Mandarin, a language which she did not usually speak. One translation is: "I love you, I love you, My love is very strong. It flies high like a kite before the wind, Please do not let go of the string". The song was recorded at the Abbey Road Studios.

Duncan Browne had two songs which got a lot of FM airplay here in the US in the late 70s. "Wild Places" and "American Heartbeat". Both were very good and I remember them well.

Every time we went to Puerto Rico, the mosquitos used my legs as a smorgasbord. I would get massive welts that itched like a "mudder." They rarely touched Carlos and if they did, his would disappear by the next day but my welts would last about week or so-and by then I had more. They LOVED me. I was "fresh meat." And I wouldn't eat bananas when I was down there because I heard that mosquitos also love banana flavored blood.

Calamine lotion is composed of calamine (zinc oxide/carbonate and ferric oxide), zinc oxide, bentonite, glycerine, sodium citrate, and liquified phenol. So one of those ingredients must be very good for the bites.

Can you make your own calamine lotion?

1 tablespoon Tasmanian sea salt. 12 drops lavender essential oil. 1 teaspoon palm oil free, 100% palm oil free glycerine (this is optional, but it will help the lotion become smoother and softer)

My church had an event called "Trunk or Treat".  Congregation folks donated bags of candy, then some volunteer hosts set up the candy in car trunks.  Kiddos from the area would dress up in costumes and then they would collect candy from the hosts at the car trunks.  Our church has done it a few years now; it seems popular.

We seem to get less and less every year.

When we lived around the corner (I LITERATELY mean around the corner. Where I am sitting right now, I can't see the house but I can see the building that is LITERALLY in the back yard of the other house and I can see the steeple of the church that is next door to the other house) we ran out of TEN BAGS of the Hershey bite size! Last night, we only went through 2 bags and just a few out of the 3rd. So, with all this left over candy, SOMEBODY has to eat it. (That's why I always get Hershey's because I LOVE it.  ;D ;D)

I noticed that there were a lot of people across the street but they didn't cross. I don't really blame them. This road can be kind of nasty. We have quite a bit of traffic including 18-wheeler trucks going by at all hours. (The ONE thing I really hate about my house.)

I'm thinking of next year handing out the full size bars and then we will probably get A LOT of people.  ;D ;D

We had more kids this year. We bought the usual 2 large bags of candy and ran out by about 7:30. They would show up in groups of about 4 at a time as well. The previous years (even 2019 before the pandemic) we'd always about half a bag left over.

It's a classic. There are 3 different endings. At first, when you saw it in the theatre, you didn't know which ending you were to get. Cleaver ploy to make people want to see it a few times. But, then they combined all the endings. How they did it was they showed the first ending and then Tim Curry will say, "Or it could be like THIS..." and then they go into the second ending. And he did it again to show the third ending.
