Avalon

I've watched the first three episodes. It took me days of stop and go. Too much psychology of the characters. I wanted more Mars. There are lesbians but where are the male homosexuals?

, Thomas Jefferson, then Secretary of State presented a report on weights and measures to the U.S. House of Representatives. Even though all the weights and measures in use in the United States at the time were derived from English weights and measures, his report made no mention of the stone being used. He did, however, propose a decimal system of weights in which his "[decimal] pound" would have been 9.375 ounces (265.8 g) and the "[decimal] stone" would have been 5.8595 pounds (2.6578 kg).[41] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stone_(unit) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plan_for_Establishing_Uniformity_in_the_Coinage,_Weights,_and_Measures_of_the_United_States https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/12/28/574044232/how-pirates-of-the-caribbean-hijacked-americas-metric-system

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobster_Thermidor As Thermidor was the name of a month of the French Revolutionary Calendar I thought the dish might have been created during that time but I was wrong The recipe of Lobster Thermidor was created around 1880 by Auguste Escoffier then working in Maison Maire, a Parisian restaurant near the Théâtre de la Porte-Saint-Martin. In March 1896, a successful reprise of the play Thermidor by Victorien Sardou opened in that theatre. The play took its name from a summer month in the French Republican Calendar, during which the Thermidorian Reaction occurred, overthrowing Robespierre and ending the Reign of Terror.[1] Maison Maire's owner, Paillard, changed the name of this recipe after the play gained in popularity.

http://www.us-metric.org/origin-of-the-metric-system/ Most historians agree that Gabriel Mouton, the vicar of St. Paul’s Church in Lyons, France, is the “founding father” of the metric system. He proposed a decimal system of measurement in 1670. Mouton based it on the length of one minute of arc of a great circle of the Earth (now called a nautical mile, 1852 meters). He also proposed the swing-length of a pendulum with a frequency of one beat per second as the unit of length (about 25 cm). A pendulum beating with this length would have been fairly easy to produce, thus facilitating the widespread distribution of uniform standards. Over the years, his work was revised, improved, and extended by a number of French scientists. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ A problem that I have had with the Metric System is that I thought that it arose out of the French Revolution. But I see now it goes back a century earlier during the Ancien Regime. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabriel_Mouton

Thanks for the link.

I have one plain white votive candle I got in case the power goes out. I've never lit it. I use a flashlight.

Good advice but I'm not going to toss out what I have now. I'll see how it goes the closer I get to grocery reorder time.

Does that include clothing also like no leather shoes etc.?

Goat is good! The mom & pop store I used to walk to the then owner sometimes would make curry goat and share it with me.

On the station I watch "Judge Judy" they say that this courtroom show is coming to the channel. Thus far they have not shown any clips of it. All I have been able to find on YouTube are short segments.

Today - 22 September, Saturday - I had yogurt, meatballs, jalapeno cheese, steak, two diet Pepsis, flavored tap water.

I had this female friend who used to cut my hair usually at my place but one time at her place. That one time her husband came home and he turned on the tv set to catch some sports event. He only watched a few minutes of it. As he was leaving rather than turn the tv off he handed me the remote. A guy thing. Btw they were black and when they got married I was the only white man who was invited to the wedding and reception.

Alot of gay guys seem to like candles. I can take or leave them.

Right. But we're still going to get high temps in the 90Fs in October.

When Philip Howard during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I was in the Tower of London he had a greyhound for a companion. Sorry it's a religious site. I knew his story. But it was the only link that I could quickly find that identified the dog as a greyhound. http://bigbookofwomensaints.blogspot.com/2014/07/two-saints-who-loved-dogs.html
