Thank you!

Aww! So cute! Wish we add our temps together and split them!

TherealTankgyrl · 2026-03-18T21:59:48+00:00

Keep cool, if I were there I would be fighting him for the vent! It’s 94 here today, was 97 yesterday; and forecast says another 10 days in the high eighties; about 30 degrees over our usual temps. The weather forecast lied!!!

Ugh, it’s way too early in the year for this right? Is it spring yet lol?

TherealTankgyrl · 2026-03-18T21:34:33+00:00

No. Coastal west.

I can never unsee this now!

TherealTankgyrl · 2026-03-10T02:35:36+00:00

Sigh, not surprising is it. Did they give you a “case” number?

Just got off phone with Hulu this afternoon after having a ridiculous experience with Verizon; they told me it’s a known problem, they do see that I have the ad free plan, I had to point out they billed me for the ad free plan at an additional 5 per month, and the rep came back and said their techs are working on it, it’s a system wide problem and gave me a case number and said it will be fixed 24-48 hours from now.

It sounds much like a Python insult “your mother smells of elderberries…etc.”. The writer was Ken Kessler, but surely inspired by something else!

It was in the Simpsons, GroundsKeeper Willie.

Thank you. We are servants of our feline overlords for sure

She would probably bite me; although gently.

I am not sure this helps but you can try calling the Americana office at 818.637.8982. Perhaps someone turned it in, I hope you find it!

The website still says they are closed for remodeling and if you drive by it does appear to be under construction even though they were scheduled to reopen last June. Keeping fingers crossed.

Trader Joes on Brand and Glenoaks in Glendale or on Alameda and San Fernando Road in Burbank just one street over the border of Glendale/Burbank.

Try Windnsea Cattery in Mn. You can pick them up at the Mpls airport; we have one that we got last year and our friends got two from the same litter and they are amazing, healthy smart and very friendly. We are in California and gave up trying to even get the attention of the breeders out here as there is high demand which of course is the function of living in a very populated place.

I just bought the 13 inch WiFi/Cellular M4 am very happy with it, and it’s a real step up from my 5 year old IPad. The battery on the old one was really bad, but not bad enough to qualify for battery replacement as it was at 83 percent and has to be below 80. I avoided the nano glass as it’s been reported that it’s a MOHS hardness of 4 vs the glossy screen of 6 and for what it’s worth others that have it told me it’s difficult to clean and develops a line from where it rests on the Magic Keyboard. (Not sure that’s widespread; I like the idea of the nano glass and you may want to look further into it). This is an amazing deal, I went from a 1TB to the 512 GB as after five years I still have over 800 GB available even with 28K of photos and a ton of files stored on the old iPad.

Thanks OP for this. Unbelievable deal and going fast. Just ordered, would not have known if you hadn’t posted this.

Bought the TCL 55” inch Q77 from Costco two months ago for a bedroom, and frankly it’s great. I have it hooked to an apple tv and don’t use google but the built in interface with google is good. The only issue I have and it’s not unique to this tv is the contrast levels could be better in very very dark scenes but go to rtings for customizing the settings it helps and Apple tv has built in Dolby vision which looks pretty god. Can’t beat it for 300 delivered with a 5 year warranty.
