It goes from nice and happy and light to daaaaaarrrrrrrrrrk in a hurry. Makes me smile. Like watching a sunny day turn into trailer park destroying tornadoes. I don't know who Stanhope is but I guess I'll search later today if I ever fall asleep and then wake up. And I would watch them in reverse order, I'd think. And trailer parks cannot destroy tornados.

He definitely doesn't make me laugh, and he's not mean enough to make me snicker. He makes me giggle, and that's okay. It's like he's the mayonnaise of comedians. He'll pull the sandwich together but you're not going to rave about him. Actually, he kind of LOOKS like the mayonnaise of comedians. He'd probably be the first one to label himself that mayonnaise of comedians too. I like his stuff, but the world tour thing they did on Amazon or whatever was tough to watch. Got a little bit insulting to the cultures he was standing in front of in my opinion. Quote

I took my wife, brother and sister in law to see Doug. Let’s just say, I was the only one laughing in the group. He’s not for everyone but he’s my favorite by far. 1 1 Quote
Stoner Posted January 19, 2021 Author Report Posted January 19, 2021 If it comes down to the PB, I like my chances. (Randomly generated numbers, BTW.) (Not showing the other numbers, because I'm definitely going to win and don't want all of you coming after me.) 1 Quote
Stoner Posted January 20, 2021 Author Report Posted January 20, 2021 For so it had come about, as indeed I and many men might have foreseen had not terror and disaster blinded our minds. These germs of disease have taken toll of humanity since the beginning of things—taken toll of our prehuman ancestors since life began here. But by virtue of this natural selection of our kind we have developed resisting-power; to no germs do we succumb without a struggle, and to many—those that cause putrefaction in dead matter, for instance—our living frames are altogether immune. But there are no bacteria in Mars, and directly these invaders arrived, directly they drank and fed, our microscopic allies began to work their overthrow. Already when I watched them they were irrevocably doomed, dying and rotting even as they went to and fro. It was inevitable. By the toll of a billion deaths man has bought his birthright of the earth, and it is his against all comers. Quote

Eleven Posted February 13, 2021 Report Posted February 13, 2021 Just learned that Cloris Leachman died a couple of weeks ago. I think she was PA's first pin-up. Makes one think. Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted February 16, 2021 Report Posted February 16, 2021 I was just reminded that the Ottomans did not change the name of Constantinople to Istanbul in 1453. They started using that name, but it was Ataturk (the father of modern Turkey) that officially renamed the beautiful city ... in 1930. Quote
Stoner Posted February 16, 2021 Author Report Posted February 16, 2021 Do you replace the plastic clip after opening a loaf of bread, and, if so, why? Quote

Like on a bag of hot dog buns? Yes. The bread we buy only comes with a twist tie. And I replace it until I'm down to the last 2 slices. Quote
