Thanks

After being here all day I feel so much better. I can breathe again. Finally fed me too. Damn good chicken soup.

Oh, good - I'm really glad to hear that!!!

Interesting. Maybe it ends up staying closer to the books than I thought - what you describe certainly sounds a lot more like something I'd enjoy watching as it goes against the usual trope. I think I just may have to check that out!

I promised yesterday that I'd post piccy's of our new pups. You can find it here in the Dogs! thread

I'd mentioned in my intro post that we'd just adopted a couple of new dogs, and here are the promised pictures :) This is Von, who's name comes from the Old Norse word for "Hope". He's 22 months old, and a Black Lab and probable Greyhound mix. He's VERY talkative, very fast and very curiou...

From what I understand, while we will not be sending any officials or other diplomats, our athletes will still be allowed to participate. I guess that's what they mean by "diplomatic boycott."

Good to hear

Oh wow... How are you feeling overall?

In the books, I feel like that was a long time ago. In the storyline of Leviathan Falls , that's so long ago (more than 20 years) it has no real impact; in other words, if you didn't remember it had happened, you wouldn't miss any of the meaning of anything in this book. I think that was all in jus...

Oh, that's TOO funny!1

I think it was Ronnny Jackson who made those comments. He resigned not long after and is now running for Congress. This was his replacement, Sean Conley.

Very interesting, Kendra! Thanks for sharing

We will learn more about Ethan with time. I could be wrong. But the words “The thoughts won’t stop. Help me.” say a lot. Maybe I'm just getting too cynical in my old age, but while part of me wants to believe that picture was a genuine cry for help, another part wonders if perhaps he drew it as a m...

Thanks!!

Po' ol' Gangreen, that is indeed some serious industrial strength stupid. While she may be correct about the cancer rate, stopped clock metaphor, and heart disease as well, neither of them are contagious or transmittable. I seriously doubt if she even knows where South Africa is. Further down in th...

Yikes, WK. Fraught days. I tested positive today. :( I honestly thought it was just flu. I’ve been in bed for 11 days now, mostly isolated in the spare bedroom. For the first four days - the worst of it - installers were putting in our ductless AC/heater, drilling through the 6” wall next to my bed...

With my state suddenly jumping into worst place, on Tuesday the CEO of my utility send a company-wide email asking managers to let employees work from home if they were able, and encouraging employees to work from home. So I'm home yesterday and Monday, and my manager hopes to have a remote work po...

Thank you all!! I really appreciate the warm welcome back

Very cool stuff, RTH - thanks much!!

Leviathan Falls , by James S.A. Corey, the ninth (and final) book in The Expanse novels. The first 8 were excellent, so I expect no less. I think it (the series) was made into a big-production Tee Vee series (on Amazon Prime?), of which I have seen zero episodes. I prefer books, but that's just me,...

Too true!

Happy BIrthday!!

Good morning, and welcome back Kriselda. I promise we would hold it against you that you don't have cats. Their magnificence can be too much sometimes. ;) Yes, cats are truly magnificent - I've had a couple - but for some reason I seem to just be a dog person. Maybe because that's what we had when ...

Thanks much for doing so!

Thanks, Sugar! I didn't know about that trick (I'm too used to touchscreens...)
