How does this fit movie quotes with 'due to the pandemic' appended to the end of them?? Gman

"You know, there's something I've been meaning to ask you. In the transference, the monster got part of your wonderful brain. But what did you ever get from him"... due to the pandemic? Gman

"I know we've only known each other four weeks and three days, but to me it seems like nine weeks and five days. The first day seemed like a week and the second day seemed like five days. And the third day seemed like a week again and the fourth day seemed like eight days. And the fifth day you went to see your mother and that seemed just like a day, and then you came back and later on the sixth day, in the evening, when we saw each other, that started seeming like two days, so in the evening it seemed like two days spilling over into the next day and that started seeming like four days, so at the end of the sixth day on into the seventh day, it seemed like a total of five days. And the sixth day seemed like a week and a half..." due to the pandemic. Gman

"Of All The Gin Joints In All The Towns In All The World, She Walks Into Mine"... due to the pandemic. Gman

"Second star to the right and straight on 'til morn"... due to the pandemic. "Almira Gulch, just because you own half the county doesn't mean that you have the power to run the rest of us. For 23 years, I've been dying to tell you what I thought of you, and now... well, being a Christian woman, I can't say it" ... due to the pandemic. Gman

In answer to the thread title, "No we don't." I hope that puts your mind at ease. Sgt. Smith Homeland Security Domestic Spying Office ? ?

9. "Nobody does it better..." due to the pandemic (ok I cheated. It's a song lyric). Gman

Take your favorite line from a movie and add at the end "due to the pandemic!!" I'll start... 1. Carl Spackler: This place gotta pool? Ty Webb: Pool and a pond... Pond be good for you... due to the pandemic. 2. "Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit_____" ... due to the pandemic 3."Flounder, you can't spend your whole life worrying about your mistakes! You f'ed up - you trusted us" ... due to the pandemic. 4."Shaken, not stirred"... due to the pandemic. Gman

I've never met him. But I've seen his escort ad ad for years. And the ad is dated from 2015. Gman

It was less than a year ago. How could you forget? You are obviously europeanman You say the same things. If by some phenomenal odds you aren't him, you might as well be. Different people like different things. The muscles on the guys you like barely even show. Not usually to my taste at all. Gman

Were you "europeanman"? If you were, I had recently wondered where you had gone. As for muscle equaling fat, it probably is European as when I think of European styled clothes they are cut extremely thin. I know we as a country (and myself as a good example) are overweight compared to a lot of people in Europe. But I look at a lot of European models and while handsome, I really do want to feed some of them-food people. Some guys that you have mentioned in the past, if you are Europeanman, were just too skinny. And obviously not everyone in Europe agrees with you or Arnold Schwarzenegger or Franco Columbu would never have been popular. Gman

Muscle isn't equivalent to fat. And there are lots of skinny guys advertising too. I prefer more muscle mass on guys. If you keep making statements like that, (not that there's anything particularly wrong with it), we are going to wonder if you are a former member from Europe in a new guise. He only liked guys who many of us thought were too asthenic. Gman

Unlikely isn't impossible. That's why they tell you to put take-out food into your own dishes and wash your hands thoroughly before eating. Gman

I'd say they are good for a long time. There's a trick to check for freshness. Obviously if they smell bad, they are bad. But if they don't smell bad, and you need to check-get a bottle big enough that you could float an egg in-I used to use, if I'm remembering correctly, a large plastic apple juice bottle or V-8 that I had cut off the top 3rd. You fill it with water and drop the egg in it. The test is from this article https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/tell-if-eggs-are-bad Instructions: "To perform the float test, gently set your egg into a bowl or bucket of water. If the egg sinks, it is fresh. If it tilts upwards or even floats, it is old. This is because as an egg ages, the small air pocket inside it grows larger as water is released and replaced by air." Gman

Not ever having had any muscle (but having had lots of weight), I didn't know. Gman

All the people who left comments liked him except for one guy who said he rushed to the appt and left early, was "smaller" by an inch than he advertised, and had problems performing. But in spite of all that the reviewer thought he was a nice guy. Gman

He's cute. But I want to buy him some muscle milk and a gym membership for a month with a personal trainer. Gman

Aren't the dates in Julian format? Gman

I don't like that stringy white thing either, but please don't tell me what it is. ? What never???? Gman

I think I've always done this. I learned it from my mother. Of course she'll also pick a grape off a bunch to see if the bunch is good. I just can't make myself eat an unwashed grape. Oh stop. Of course I've had unwashed grapes before in my life. But in general I don't want to-even before we were in a pandemic. But as a result I almost never buy grapes as they are often lousy whereas my Mom has great grapes. That's definitely one method. But I'd just rather pick one carton and stick with it unless there are too many cracked eggs. Gman

I just went to my local Walmart and bought a dozen eggs. I lifted each one up in my chosen carton and inspected it for cracks. One had a crack I'm not sure I would have noticed if I hadn't picked it up. I took it out and replaced it with an egg from another carton. I started thinking about whether I should do that now. Gman

I'm not very religious, but.. Gman

On my home planet of Zetox I'm considered quite the catch. Not so much here I'm afraid. People think my complexion means I'm nauseous. https://flintstones.fandom.com/wiki/The_Great_Gazoo_(character) Gman

There's no need to quibble. While I didn't explicitly say it, I am obviously in whole-hearted agreement with this viewpoint as I said in my post that he is very likely from an Iranian Jewish family. If Mr. Hazzan and I had the same background, I could have said he was of an American Jewish family (or Dutch Jewish, Polish Jewish, or German Jewish as I am all 4 of these ). In no way did I imply that being Iranian or Arabic (or if talking about me-American, Dutch, Polish, or German ) was itself a religion which would preclude him (or me) from being Jewish. This is also true and a good point. As evidence of the cross pollination, the country of Persia was not originally Islamic. But in my admittedly limited experience, the people I've known with Iranian antecedents have described themselves as Iranians (or Persians) and not Arabs. Gman
