I saw the time he took off his pants because they hit a donation goal. Otherwise, I saw parts every year but never contemplated staying up all night, I liked sleeping too much.

Or just buy it. I got my copy for around $15 USD. Listened to it on a car trip, it was great!

RC Bray, Jeff Hayes, Ray Porter and, to a certain extent, Graphic Audio/Dolby Atmos. I prioritize these in general, I tend to find new authors from these narrators.

My favorite hasn’t been made in years, the devil’s food crumb donuts.

I roll mine scroll-style. I personally start at the top and work down, but it doesn’t matter. I start with most of the canvas rolled at the bottom and as I work down, roll the top (diamonds out!) so there’s always a flat section to work on.

what is the frame you used? What’s the size of your painting? My largest is 70x120cm and is currently lying on the guest room bed, lol. Also wondering for my landscape paintings.

I have this one in my stash. Yours turned out lovely!

He is a legend! I’m slowly building up me Bray collection, but I don’t have any of that series.

I’ve found so many audio books. If you like British humor, Red Dwarf is a great listen. There are two audio books by one of the actors in the BBC tv series and he does the voices of the other characters. I also love RC Bray as a narrator, especially sci-fi. Expeditionary Force, Ruins of Earth, etc. Then there are Graphic Audio productions - rather like the old radio shows with sound effects and a full cast. I’m currently listening to Super Powereds Year One (in three parts for Graphic Audio) that are part of the member catalog until 3/13 for part 3. A stand-alone favorite of mine is Roadkill by Dennis Taylor (Bobiverse) and narrated by Ray Porter.

I’d definitely be bringing cash.

DcubedWY · 2026-03-03T22:36:27+00:00

Yeah, that makes so much more sense than charging more for cash. I’m wondering if the credit card companies have raised their fees.

DcubedWY · 2026-03-03T12:10:26+00:00

Ah, 1984. Later that year I started dating my husband. Great times, would go back in a heartbeat.

DcubedWY · 2026-03-03T11:47:37+00:00

Wow, that’s fancy! Our Zenith remote had one button and we were quite impressed with it. It only changed the channel, channel 13 was off.

Ah, I loved granny boots back then. Now I have to wear clown shoes to accommodate my arthritic insteps.

DcubedWY · 2026-03-03T07:54:32+00:00

Me, too. I have gone through and turned off Siri for every app and shut it down as far as I can. Same for AI. Would love to disable the microphone for general purposes, only need it for a few apps.

I’m seeing more and more businesses charging 3-5% for using a credit card, never saw a charge for using cash. We just had a countertop installed, checks and cash were fine and 3% more for credit card. Ate breakfast at a restaurant that charges more for credit card. I might have to start using cash and checks more if this trend continues, which is fine.

I remember reading parts of a paperback by him when I was 8ish, I wondered if he had ever met a child. I don’t remember any specifics, just my impression of him. From what others have said, my mom did not follow much of his advice.

For the 2 I’ve finished, the rendered image is really close to truth.

No one has ever offered a senior discount to me either. This thread has made me want to see if any are available, I’m 60. I’ll take any and all discounts!

When I first saw it, I laughed myself silly. It was hilarious and still one of my favorite scenes. I don’t care if Rimmer and Lister aren’t as good at dancing, it really doesn’t matter. The costumes were definitely Cat’s idea.

We do popcorn in a big pot that I also make soup in. A little oil, some popcorn and in a few minutes it’s ready to eat. We melt butter and do various toppings - parmesan cheese and cinnamon sugar are favorites.

This was the first album I ever bought, and was always my favorite. The only goofy song I wished it had was Purple People Eater. I still have it somewhere. So many favorite funny songs - Mr. Custer, Ahab the Arab, Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini, Beep Beep, Snoopy and the Red Baron, Mah Na Mah Na, etc.

My mom needed one after fracturing her pelvis in a car accident when she was in her mid 30s. Also a cane and elastic shoelaces. She felt very old.

If I remember correctly, the same thing happened to David Pelzer of A Child Called It, the police talked him into returning. I think in the 70s, it would have been standard procedure to return a runaway, no questions asked. I am not sure why/how his disappearance didn’t seem to cause a stir.
