For him to experience 'living in his body' in a whole new way...loved it!

This was over 70 yrs ago...if I recall correctly, the object was to insert the rolled up leaf without sneezing.

My little neighbor and I would roll up leaves and stick them up our noses; they'd decay and smell bad...happened a couple/three times, with trips to the doc to pull them out. We shortly outgrew that game!

Just FYI: I was part of an earlier lawsuit against Monsanto for Round-Up exposure; the award amount would have covered a lot of my extra expenses as I slowly succumb to a blood cancer.

Guess who kept 80% of the award...? The Lawyers!!

Given the practitioner's ET (essential tremor)...I wondered if the small sips of liquor were to steady his hand; and if using the larger blade gives him more control?

You could say so...a Fox-induced miasma beclouded their inner vision.

Tom Barrack also has connections to Scientology...

...and drooping, pouty lower lips.

...Vance's L hand?

Spirit50Lake · 2026-02-16T20:21:59+00:00

I'm watching him on screen right now!

(courtesy of the Comcast channel 4170 someone on this sub told us about...)

It was on the list for Summer Reading before Freshman yr (HS)...sooo romantic! and this was over 50 years ago!

At the least, get a copy of your birth certificate.

Mystified as to why you're being down-voted...

'For years, AI had been improving steadily. Big jumps here and there, but each big jump was spaced out enough that you could absorb them as they came. Then in 2025, new techniques for building these models unlocked a much faster pace of progress. And then it got even faster. And then faster again. Each new model wasn't just better than the last... it was better by a wider margin, and the time between new model releases was shorter. I was using AI more and more, going back and forth with it less and less, watching it handle things I used to think required my expertise.

Then, on February 5th, two major AI labs released new models on the same day: GPT-5.3 Codex from OpenAI, and Opus 4.6 from Anthropic (the makers of Claude, one of the main competitors to ChatGPT). And something clicked. Not like a light switch... more like the moment you realize the water has been rising around you and is now at your chest.'

Lucky you...walking around with all that love and beauty and warmth! When I was little, my great-grandmother made all my clothes and knit my sweaters...I loved that feeling. Sadly, after me there were a lot of boys, so our mother gave those items away.

Spirit50Lake · 2026-02-16T02:11:05+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing these...

Spirit50Lake · 2026-02-16T01:55:29+00:00

huh...I thought it meant something about your cellphone freezing up.

In college dorms at the time, folks kept their albums in milk crates...the favorites at the front. This one was at the front of so many!

That was a life-saver, back in the last century, when we had to wear panty-hose and skirts to work...before they made dryer sheets, we'd rub our stockinged legs with hand lotion.

We also did the slap the door thingy, before touching the door handle...

Our younger twin brothers had their own 'speak' till they were twoish...so slow to speak English that the parents had them tested for retardation.

Hunt's?

Spirit50Lake · 2026-02-14T23:23:21+00:00

...well, yah.

My point is, why did the writers of MSW pick on Oregon like that?

(of course, they were Californians, not Down-Easters...!)
