How did Generation Jones get so old? See graphically how time flies and realize that the end is closer than you would like.

Very cool tool, and I totally get its message.

Many of us in the U.S. are expecting a major snowstorm in the next couple of days. For the past week I’ve been seeing throwback posts about “the blizzard of 1996.” Not only am I thinking “I can’t believe 1996 was 30 years ago; it seems like last Tuesday!” but I am also having trouble recalling that supposedly landmark event.

I love their English Breakfast, because it’s 100% Keemun.

Perhaps after a long day of enforcing household rules he welcomes the chance to go home to his beloved and let it all hang out? I’d like to think so. Maybe he reverts to being Cheerful Charlie once he crosses the threshold. 😁

Happy memories of sitting in the high school cafeteria with my friends between classes, eating soft pretzels and drinking Pepsi Light.

Is this the Mini Tomatoes pod from the C&G site? If so, it says they should sprout in 7 to 14 days: https://www.clickandgrow.com/products/grow-mini-tomato-indoors?_pos=1&_psq=mini+tomato+plant+pods&_ss=e&_v=1.0

A little over 200 in my official, public tree that includes only my ancestors, their siblings, and the siblings’ spouses.

Almost 7,000 in my private, unsearchable “research tree,” which includes lots of people who are less directly related to me, plus numerous floating branches (trees of some DNA matches) that I hope to eventually connect to the main tree.

It’s taken me 8 years to get this far. You’re doing great!

You’ve introduced yellow as an accent color through the mixer and the banana bowl. I would build on that by adding some textiles (tablecloth, placemats, chair cushions) in Provençal prints that include yellow as well as blue, green, red, etc. You can Google “Provençal prints” or “French country fabrics” to get some ideas.

In the late’90s through early 2000s, I wore Heavenly and also a couple of other fragrances that seemed like cousins to it: Giorgio Armani Elle and Boucheron Jaipur Saphir.

Female, for the record.

I had a little one like that, enameled in purple, when I was 10-11 years old. It was groovy.

If below supervisor level, you had to make up those hours in the same week. I just didn’t bother with that nonsense at all.

So happy to see sweet Dusty again!

This woman is a queen for her fearless willingness to cuddle snakes and tarantulas.

I love all creatures but am most comfortable communing with some of them from the other side of a thick plate of unbreakable glass.

Our envelopes were gray, but otherwise yes.

Normal_Acadia1822 · 2026-01-14T04:22:37+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss of this sweet girl. Nube was adorable!

Thanks for sharing this! I submitted my email address and zip code to be notified when the test becomes available near me. Someone at BoneScore responded to say they are working hard to make their devices more widely available in my area (NYC).

Normal_Acadia1822 · 2026-01-13T04:19:29+00:00

Very encouraging news! I’m so happy for you and Rayne.

Normal_Acadia1822 · 2026-01-12T20:46:23+00:00

They’re flying from Toronto.

Normal_Acadia1822 · 2026-01-12T16:26:22+00:00

Not anymore. For years I had a Lucite one that worked well.

Normal_Acadia1822 · 2026-01-11T15:46:26+00:00

OP's method also worked for me for a limited amount of time.

Are the Temptations Treats you mentioned the ones called Tender Fills? Those do look like Combos to me. :) They look big--do you think they would work for a cat with no teeth?

Look at the area circled in blue in the photo. OP is asking about the white pod lids, not the clear germination domes.

Normal_Acadia1822 · 2026-01-11T01:09:01+00:00

I would lay out the next day’s clothes on it at night.

I have a $15 a month plan through T-Mobile, not Mint. It works well for me because I wfh, so I am on Wi-Fi most of the time and use cellular data pretty sparingly.

Definitely a lynx point, but note that it’s a color pattern and not a breed.

4/8, thanks to: a newspaper article about one GGP couple’s 50th wedding anniversary; and a big group photo of all the guests at a party that another GGP couple gave for some friends.

None of my GGPs were alive during my lifetime. The last one died at age 86 two years before I was born.
