We used to have a "RW don't google that" Maybe we'll need "Alice, don't google that" See end of previous thread

Somehow, I think the rain we're having from Friday through Memorial Day is G-d crying for the Republic

BTW, I was at a BJ's wholesale club and got myself an early birthday present. I have found if I spend much on a watch, it doesn't last. They had a $40 smartwatch (Timex iConnect Active) - note that there are several iconnect models, and the reviews are thus confusing) Is it a great smartwatch? No, but it is worth the $40. That's cheap for any watch. Even came with a spare band. I had a $150 smartwatch that crapped out in a week, and the replacement broke physically later. (It was not designed for us sinister folk, so it would catch on things). So I figure if this lasts a year, it was worth it. Can't wear it to work, but that is true for all Bluetooth smartwatches, or other Bluetooth devices. Also the band is good - a buckle strap, but the extra strap gets inserted in a slot after the buckle instead of having a loop hold it. Works much better. But I have an analog watch for that.

Alice, I'd say read 1984, but it would be too depressing, as we are living it.

War is Peace Today, Hamas attacking Israel is because they want peace (all the Jews to rest in peace) Ignorance is Strength No comment needed Freedom is Slavery See "Black Lives Matter"

Reply to Kosh's Shadow in 5: There is an inscription on the old Worcester County Courthouse in Massachusetts that I used to think was 1984-ish, but now I understand. "Obedience to Law is Liberty" Still a bit 1984, but I understand it better

In #1 Kosh's Shadow said: "RW don't google that" That used to always crack me up. Believe me, if you all told RW not to google it, I didn't either. Too many people gone forever. I really enjoyed reading his comments. Can you imagine what he'd be thinking about the times we are living in now!

Reply to Kosh's Shadow in 9: Well it is Sunday night, kind of slow in real world bars too on Sunday nights. That or maybe everybody's out of town for the holiday weekend.

Reply to Kosh's Shadow in 11: "Closing time, you don't have to go home
But you can't stay here"
Maybe folks don't feel welcome... I used to hate it when they'd flash the lights on brightly to signify "closing time". It always seemed so rude to me.

Reply to Alice in Dairyland in 12: That's a different song; I think there are at least 3 that share the title. But, of course, Leonard Cohen's is the best

Reply to Kosh's Shadow in 13: Sorry, picked the wrong lyrics. I'm running on empty right now so thinking clearly is coming very hard to me. Can't play the video very loudly because I don't the to disturb my husband in the next room.

Reply to Kosh's Shadow in 19: Sometimes I wonder if I am really human (OK, a shadow of a very powerful alien) I have a lot of trouble connecting with people.

Sorry I've got to bail on you too. It's closing in on 10pm and I can hardly keep my eyes open any longer. Have had a long past four days and really need to go hug my pillow. Been nice talking with you though. Enjoy your paid day off and remember the fallen. Bless their souls.
