  1. I didn’t realize you could develop that muscle.
  2. Yes but I’m underwhelmed. The main character in Call Me By Your Name had a personality. Yet to see any in Fraser.
  3. The sets, costumes, and scenery were spectacular too!
  4. Then he must have had a ghostwriter for the inciteful posting he did while in prison.
  5. Lacking in style? With those period sets and costumes, I thought it was one of the more elegant productions I seen in a while. And that's what makes horse races.
  6. Love Miss Fisher’s mysteries.
  7. Really? Lol
  8. You’re fortunate to have those choices @Lucky. When I moved to Laredo,TX 11 years ago you could pick up a NYTimes in your local Starbucks. That ended about 8 years ago. There’s no print edition of the NYTimes available that I know of south of San Antonio save maybe in Corpus Christi if you can find it. So if you would, please save the NYTimes crossword for me. Thanks ?
  9. Well I just wasted a fine afternoon being led down memory lane by this fine documentary.
  10. He certainly found the right gene pool!!!
  11. Missed it but really. I watched all 5 seasons of Schitts Creek and as good as it may have been it was no MASH. IMHO.
  12. FYI. RBG’s late cousin Richard (they grew up like brother and sister) was a member of Lindsay’s brain trust. Dick created the first 911 system and managed the construction of the Police HQ (finished early and under budget). Both Lindsay and RBG spoke at his funeral. The long and the short of it.
  13. Well it helps to be retired but MY trick is to read it back to front. By the time you reach the news at the front you find it’s “old” news and you breeze thru it swiftly. If time is an issue I commend https://www.theweek.com/ It gives you a short précis of both sides of the major news stories with quotes from the major columnists.
  14. Oh and I get the print edition of the Laredo Morning Times daily or at least on those days when I have to break quarantine. I’m addicted to crossword puzzles - even the ones that take less than 5 minutes to solve. Electronic crossword puzzles aren’t the same. And yes I do them in ink. Just like the NYTimes one when I lived there. And if I travel to SA Houston or Corpus or anywhere north, my first stop is to pick up a print edition of the NYTimes - for the crossword puzzle.
  15. On line NYTimes BBC Music Hard copy and online (because I spend part of the year in Asia) The Economist The Week The New Yorker Vanity Fair And a pant load of cooking mags.
  16. In February, before the plague in was in BBK for a long weekend. I got to Babylon for a quick massage and a bite to eat. I liked it: it’s pleasant but didn’t partake in all its amenities. For my next trip - whenever that is - I’m considering actually staying there. Can anyone tell me what it’s like and what to expect?
  17. He can scramble my eggs any time!!!
  18. Sorry. I found it breathtakingly beautiful and gratuitously gory. I didn’t make it thru the first episode.
  19. Why do I suspect he's not playing Bach's Goldberg Variations
  20. I'm wearing a sarong but I guess that doesn't count.
  21. Didn’t realize that a naked bulldozer could be considered a kitchen gadget.
  22. Be still my libido!!!
  23. And when he’s bad he’s better!
  24. I got hacked. I think I let an AVG program lapse. And now I'm fucked sort of. I've used MS Outlooks since office came out on floppy disks. I've a Yahoo email account for an "@att.net" address. I can't get Outlook to accept my new password. It keeps asking for my smtp.mail.yahoo.com password. I've tried the control panel approach. I cant figure out which what how or where to enter new smpt settings meanwhile some mail is getting in and going directly to "bulk" or "junk". And when I go to the mail in this account on my iPhone or even in the www.mail.yahoo.com website it's mostly in "junk" "trash". Is there a way out of this morass?
  25. This ain’t no apron!!!
