I don’t watch the news but of course I get it multiple places as I’ve said many times. I am Enjoying the respite from all Trump all the time.

I don’t do things I’m not interested in, but this pandemic has cut out some of the things I’m interested in. So that has forced me to be more...

Oh right! I’m not enjoying the economic and health pain of anyone, Either individually or for our society. The downtime is nice though.

In response to your post I did look up Ms Parks and read a bit about her. that’s a pretty awful thing she was doing. Government help is often not...

Agreed I am one of those introverts who is enjoying the pandemic. But that doesn’t mean I don’t have socialization. Just yesterday I sat on the front...

Thank you! I’m so glad you have the same impression of this film as I did. I started reading about it on Reddit and those commenters are going...

That Service was a pain in my ass and I got out of it. It gave me an indication of what things were coming my way but never when. Although you are...

Sweet mother Jesus! God I love living in a country that’s so rich it can give money away to millionaires. In my household I will have to watch...

yes, this. Good advice. The boss may blow hot and cold, he could be realistic and exacting OR be unrealistic, I don’t really know, I can’t tell...

What’s the income ceiling for this? Is the grift $1400 per person?

Our Scottish contingent here did not like me calling them Brits. I distinctly remember her calling me out on that because I figured they call us...

You go girl!Eat drink and smoke. Have some damn fun.

I wonder if they just haven’t gotten around to all of the listings of the things you see? I was checking little black Sambo books again today and the...

I had multiple copies of that Goblins Market edition because it always showed up at book sales super cheap and I could never resist it. It’s a small...

We are not planning on vacation this year because all of the plant Society conference as we would normally go to are cancelled. I suppose it’s...

I am selling my illustrated picture book collection, some of it anyway. I am keeping 200+ of the ones that “spark joy” and am donating the ones that...

Whaaaaat? It is utterly ridiculous. Now this concerns me more than the stopping publication of these books. For God sake. That’s ridiculous. But...

I see Mulberry Street book as a book. Because that’s my orientation. That’s how I live my life. It’s about books, I worked with them for decades at ...

Yes I’ve been to the mall of America twice since I lived only a few hours away from the Twin Cities at one point.It was pretty awful. The North...

i am well aware of the lily ‘n iris farms in your state and also (especially) nearby Oregon. But they are not growing them under trees. Bae’s...

Well this news sucks. I’ll let you know how it affects me.

That last point is crazy. But overall your tribute to Minnesota is sweet. I like Minnesota. Being from Iowa, we always looked “up” to you. In...

I’m not sure, judges? May we have a score please? haha

oh You DON’T want to use this fact to prove any kind of superiority of your state fair. The Best Known and best loved version of State Fair the...

Exactly! This is nicely said. made sense back then, makes sense now.

My sister-in-law, DHS sister, was born an hour and a half north of Highway 80. They don’t talk like Minnesotans. She has lived in this Twin...

Your path was easier than mine, but my path to get a vaccine wasn’t all that difficult. Like you, I had registered with three places and then sat...

yes. yes you are.:~)

I’m sorry, but you guys especially in bae’s area have these things called… Trees. You have way too many trees.I can’t live there, how does one grow...

And I think it’s hysterical, a funny idea by you, an entertaining execution by LDAHL. Please lady don’t ban it! Haha.

Catherine I think it’s fine that you both came to an agreement. You had professional advice in numbers from the realtors and that’s good enough. In...

We didn’t monitor our architect’s tab because, well, we didn’t. Whatever he charges will be what he charges. He’s the guy we wanted to do the job so...

Our contractor has torn into this project and he’s going full bore. Our architect (who lives across the street from us) filed the plans at City...

whaaaaaaat? Fauci is in SF giving shots? Cool.

ok, thanks.

We mask up for going to stores. I won’t say we go often but I won’t say that we never go either. We go when necessary. Because we’re doing two...

That is really the million dollar question. I do not honestly know if the program is a failure because the neighborhood doesn’t care enough about...

I got my first Pfizer vaccine today at 1 o’clock after some fumbling around by the powers that be at the palace of illness that was administering it....

I would play that game!

Haha yeah. To think that the entity who has the power to produce the thing has decided to not produce the thing is actually banning its own actions. ...

Please let me be holier than thou! I am serious when I say I won’t go indoors to dine with a bunch of people. Conversely I would never mask up...

dude, it isnt censorship. You will find no one on this board who is a bigger proponent of free-speech than me.

uhhhh, I don’t think it’s a coincidence that these titles are hardly their best sellers. The Mulberry Street book dates from my era I think, and I...

Even with a vaccine two weeks behind me I wouldn’t be doing this. Dining out with a bunch of people in an enclosed room? Nope nope nope. Doesn’t...

I see this from a wider point of view and it is that this is one of those things that makes me resent news media. They have about 3 to 5 stories...

Kinda a rant, kinda not. Someone I’ve been trying to push out of the position in our neighborhood board has FINALLY said he will step out of that...

Exactly. Wear a mask in populated areas when you are around other people. Dont bother to wear a mask when you are working in your own garden or...

The last couple real estate purchase of we’ve made had a signing things electronically. The electronics signature app was already installed and tied...

yes that is true. But at least you allow me to express the occasional fearful thought about cave diving. You don’t forbid those thoughts. Those ...

It was the previous incarnation. I don’t think we can access it on the way back machine. I was not a big fan of Cougar Annie’s journal. I...

Someone will have to Splaine this to me.

Glad to see you here. Don’t be shy in introducing new topics. Many of us have been around in this group for so long that we’ve talked for years...

I’m laughing here because I wasn’t harmed by viewing a little bit of Let It Go. I mean, my Disney allergy isn’t anything that causes me pain. I...

But how Would I know that “let it go “is even a song? Let alone a song from a children’s movie? Let alone a song from children’s movie produced by...

98% of the MMM writers are dull. It’s not their fault, they’re just not professional writers. The few people who write well on MMM and who do...

i have no idea. And, apparently you have forced me to watch something from that Disney production Frozen that I have never seen. Nor have I seen...

I’ve been going down a rabbit hole watching videos of a guy who promotes New York City rentals. I watched him showcase these spaces, and some of them...

Rather than keep a journal in one place I blather endlessly in digital spaces all over the internet. I can use digital search tools to gather all of...
