TV's not just playing reruns, it's playing the same reruns.....
Makes me wonder how my step dad's doing.,..
He had to go into the hospital yesterday, & I'm now wondering how he's handling hospital TV....

His son lost his father in law last week, so I'm sure things, uh...
I'm at a loss for words.....

I'm hungry & I gotta go real bad, & I just spent the last hour watching a live video of some fat broad chipping the solder off a one-hundred & forty year old lead box......

So far, a few books & some envelopes with water damage..........

No, I was waiting for the woman to open the damned box so I could get up & do those two things.......

The press kept saying there was gonna be some fancy s**t in that box, but it was just some water damaged books......

Every time one my conservative friends posts LGB (for "Let's Go Brandon"), II can't help wondering what they did with the TQ, y'know, for LGBTQ..........

I wonder if my conservative friends know that...........

^ Why do you even care about all this?  Question
Is it in anyway affecting your life? Your mind-sure. But your actual life?
Has anything really changed in the last 8 years- for you?
Obama, Trump, Biden- are you not where you were 10 years ago- no matter what party was in power?

^ When I'm really bored, I read old comic books or paperbacks or monster magazines.
I made some model kits!



It's fun, it keeps you busy, and looks cool on your bookshelf!

How come so many people want to go back in time to high school? If ever I found myself back there I think I would start violently screaming, which would probably also solve the problem of my being there, but then again my high school was not like most in that it had two functions: for most there it existed to impress good colleges by putting its name on a diploma without actually demanding much more from a student than most schools would; or to create a handful of high-functioning scholars to bring academic glory onto the school and carry the reputation of the others.

I was one of the latter, existing in a pressure cooker environment so demanding and intense that most days I wanted to stand up and walk out, and once or twice actually did, which sent the staff into meetings trying to figure out why a cog in their machine was giving them a problem, and concluding it was a nut behind the wheel.

The fact they didn't kick me out revealed something amazing to me: if I gave them the results they wanted I could otherwise get away with anything else there.

Wish I'd figured that out a few grades sooner.

My schoolteacher friend says it's a shame I went there instead of a gentler school like the one where he teaches, but if I had, well, would I have known the difference without a comparison, and just have complained about that school too? I think it's my nature not to have liked school, no matter how "good" at it I seemed at the time.

Thoughts like these arise after living through a Christmas season hearing: ".... I was back at school, and felt that old familiar pain...." Though I'm pretty sure that's not what Dan Fogelberg meant. I bet his school didn't have counselors who tried to guilt trip you over getting A's instead of A+'s, though I guess they wouldn't have indulged my rejection of them my last year either because a public school doesn't live or die on reputation like mine did.

Ah, memories during new year's week.

I've always felt sorry for people who think that your school days are the best ones of your life. Imagine the rest of your life being an anti-climax.

I've always felt sorry for people who think that your school days are the best ones of your life. Imagine the rest of your life being an anti-climax.

I went to an English Public School from 1980 - 1984: a school founded on EPS principles in my hometown where you had to wear ties, a suit in the winter and even a straw basher. It was both the best and the worst of times: some of the teachers were brutal bastards, some were nasty and some were just plain bad.  Buggedout

The only good thing I got there was a good education, despite the teachers.

Yes, we had both girls and boys houses. I was in MacDonald and our sister house was Hamilton.

I will never forget MacDonald winning the interhouse sports in 1982: that was a surreal day. At one point, we became aware that we had a chance of winning the competition and then, the unthinkable happened. We won. We were screaming, crying, hugging each other and I remember after we took a lap of honor around our track, I sat down in the stands and cried: tears yes, but happy tears.  Smile

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
