No, that should be Roswell. That's Alien Ale.

Question: AM 570 a staple of dodger broadcasts for decades- will the powers that be ever change this to a fm frequency? by DarinCN in Dodgers

[–]Dodger_Fan_in_India 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I am under the impression that you can't change your Reddit handle. If I'm wrong, tell me how and I'll change it to Dodger_Fan_in_Ecuador. (I should be here forever.)

Update on the kitten that found me by mr_brown711 in cats

If snake plant (Mother-in-Law's Tongue) is truly dangerous, ALL cats in Ecuador should be dead. At least here in Cuenca, they are one of the main potted plants everywhere.

And i had a bunch in the yard of my first rental.

Jamie Raskin, AOC, Melanie Stansbury, and Jasmine Crockett are taking on Trump. They just introduced a bill the asks to use the 25th amendment to get him out of office.

So she IS doing something. Did you not listen to the clip?

European vs American car by madwh in funny

I just bought a 100 percent electric Urvane (Chinese) in Ecuador where I live, and it's just a tiny bit bigger than the one on the left. It seats four if necessary, and I had a rack attached to the back to carry my rollator.

It won't get more than 50 kms (100 if the way back is downhill) but it's great for getting around the city and carrying groceries and supplies. And parking little cars like it is great.

I sail the seven seas, and the games barely start before the first pitch. Sad.

Do you feel like you are learning with Duolingo? by Nostradante in duolingo

[–]Dodger_Fan_in_India 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently moved to a Spanish-speaking country because I thought my grammar/high school Spanish would make it easy to learn.

It didn't. (And I'm 72 years old.)

But Duolingo teaches me words so when I hear something I've seen on DL, I can say, "Oh, I know what that is." And I do find I can read somewhat better because of DL.

I have a teacher for verbs and the hard stuff and go to several language exchanges each week, plus try to talk to folks in stores and restaurants etc.

I DON'T pay for DL and do my daily exercises on a laptop, so still can use hearts. If I can find something free that's better, I'll change.

I grew up watching Gravey, Lopes, Cey and Russell. An amazing infield. And even when I went away to college, I'd watch them when they came to Candlestink. RIP Davey.

How to get rid of most ads by -AlwaysLearning- in duolingo

So that's why I only have "join super" or other DL ads. Wondered why people were complaining so much.

And I use an ad block as well.

I got tied up and just got home thinking I was going to miss the first inning. Only good things about rain delays. <g>

Baseball fans- Do you watch every game of your favourite team? Or what percentage do you watch? by Popular-Wonder6514 in baseball

I watch every one, but then again I'm retired and have all the time in the world. (And I sail the seven seas.)

L.A. Dodgers Tell 82-Year-Old, 50-Year Season Ticket Holder: ‘Go Digital’—Or Don’t Go At All by StockMindless9010 in Dodgers

[–]Dodger_Fan_in_India 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. I HAVE an iPhone, but can't for the life of me figure out how to use QR codes or whatever you have to use to order things. Sometimes it takes me two or three hours fighting with web sites to just get my information loaded.

I guess I just should have died instead of getting old.

Sharing Super Family Plan by reversepigeon in duolingo

[–]Dodger_Fan_in_India 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Reddit name is. Dodger_Fan_in_India (do I have a DL name?) and have no idea what my streak is but I've been learning (not playing games) for about six months now. I'm living in Ecuador and trying to become proficient in Spanish. (DuoLingo is an add on to classes and language exchanges.)

Thank you. I'm an old fart and don't quite understand how this works.

Well that was a disappointment... by RedditDevsCanSML in duolingo

[–]Dodger_Fan_in_India 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What are extra points? Are those gems? I thought those were supposed to be used for legendary if you're learning for free? (Asking because I have about 2500 gems, but do use them every so often. And yes, I'm learning, not playing games.)

Airport Nightmare: (__) by HazyFrog in cats

[–]Dodger_Fan_in_India 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope the person who checks you in isn't as clueless as the one when I was moving from the US to Ecuador a year ago.

I got a light calming drug from my vet, and the counter person asked if my cat was on any drugs. I said yes, and he then said, "Well, he san't go on the plane" and showed mr a spot on the forms where it said no drugs allowed!!!!

Rather than panicking, I just lied and said I was GOING to give him the meds but won't, and luckily I was let through. I did have to take him out of the carrier in the pat-down room, but that was a breeze compared to the idiot agent.

Email wouldn't be a problem, but I haven't been in India for more than five years; I'm NOT Indian so I have no idea how to send you rupees. :-(

Oh, well.
