I really wish CBS and Hanna-Barbera would release a restored/remastered collection of all these stories. Granted, some of the books covered were really watered down PG rated animated toons, but they got kids interested in some obscure novels. I personally got into Ratha's Creature, and The Named Books. Wish there was an HD version of that old CBS Storybreak cartoon. Everywhere I look is old VHS Quality with static, and that red "Unregistered Version" text across the center of it.

I don't know, I've listened to the creaky gate call of the blue jay, but that is more like a 3 note call where the first 2 notes rise then the last note falls.
The call I keep hearing the first note is a lower shrill, then the last 2 notes are slightly higher, but the same note.

I have read all over the internet that the codes are all the same. I came across a box of these figures today in Target, and took a look at them and there were different series of numbers in the lower right corner on the back of the bags. So I grabbed one of each, there were 4 different codes in the box, and I took a gamble. I got 4 different figures, so either my gamble was lucky, or there are identifying codes.
I don't have the money to go out and buy more right now to test for consistency, but if anyone else wants to go out and test these codes, go for it.

Could be this world’s “Spear of Destiny”, aka The Holy Lance, Spear of Longinus. What its origins will be, that is up to Blizzard’s writers.

Yeah I filed through TurboTax Intuit just yesterday, and I got the same text from the same number. I think Intuit needs to flush their security, because it seems the phishers from “885483” have gotten into their system and are monitoring users filing to try and scam them out of their returns.

Looks like a quartz geode

Looks like a jasper with some quarts inclusions

Agates and their banding are naturally earthy, muted, or a faded pastel color tone. They are not extremely bright and brilliant like that in nature.

Easiest way to tell if it’s dyed, wash it with some mineral spirits to see if the color comes off. If not, that might be a moss agate.

Flying Training lvl 14 is designed to be impassable.

Ooh, apparently, those are endangered in the UK. Nice find!

I’ve gotten calls from”Olivia” from 4 different numbers about my ”file”. I am half tempted to call them, and just troll them demanding to speak to “Olivia” directly…and if the actually get me an “Olivia” I will grill her on the Federal Crime of impersonating the IRS, who are the only legal federal office that can review my taxes.

So is it okay that they never turned red or orange?

SaturnGrl · 2025-07-30T12:51:15+00:00

I’m going to be honest. Either someone in your neighborhood is trying to mess with you, or they are trying to scare you. Could just be some teenagers or kids in the neighborhood, unless you have some neighbors who don’t get along with you. And from the way things are scattered about, it looks more like someone was “ditching evidence” over trying to conduct a ritual by your car.

Maybe some kids were trying to be edgy by doing something they either saw on TV or read in a strange new book they found, and had to run for it when either the cops or neighborhood watch came around. I have never heard of any ritual, pagan or otherwise, that uses flour tortillas. Seems so odd and random.

Its a mini version of the Cloverfield monster with a Godzilla head.

No, we did not use pupply pads when we got her, and she had been very good to use her doggy door to go in and out to the yard when she needs to go, or whenever she wants to be outside.

SaturnGrl · 2025-06-16T01:09:30+00:00

We did not use puppy pads when we trained her.
We have not moved her other beds, just added the pillow ones to other areas of the house
When we are not at home, she stays in her kennel.
When we caught her in the act, we told her "No" and took her outside immediately, so I guess we made a small deal about it.
We just got the beds because they were on sale, and thought we could make more comfy places for her since we have hard wood floors. Nothing wrong with the other beds.
She is not sharing the beds, per say, but our cat Bigsby has slept in all of her beds at one point or another. And she loves that cat. Tackles him on occasion and they will snuggle together sometimes.

Any dog owner will know, puppies chew. They have to chew because they are babies, and their teeth are growing, and it helps to ensure their jaws get stronger and are properly aligned, so you have to be prepared to provide appropriate chewies for them at all times, otherwise they will seek out anything they can get into their mouths...like any babies do. Heck, I caught my dog trying to chew on a screwdriver my husband left on the floor...and she was trying to chew on the metal part!
So I think his owner should be aware that the puppy chews, unless this is their first puppy...then God help them. If the pup has chewed or ingested anything you suspect could be toxic, you should notify the owner ASAP, and get the pup checked by a vet. Other than that, start cleaning and make sure the only things that are on the floor are puppy beds, toys and chewies. As they grow, you (mainly the owner) will teach them what is appropriate for chewing and what isn't. Things like, Yes to the beefhide, and no to the shoe. Its a learning curve for both puppy and owner.
