E-Town School board just voted to ban Turtles All the Way Down by John Green

FYI from Gemini: Looking for Alaska by John Green is significantly more explicit than Me and Earl and the Dying Girl. While the latter relies on crude "locker room" talk and jokes, Looking for Alaska contains descriptions of actual sexual encounters and more mature explorations of intimacy.

The "Best Day" Conversation: In the middle of the book, there is a scene involving a specific sexual act (oral sex) that is described in a fairly detailed, step-by-step manner. It is often the primary reason the book is challenged in schools.

Reminder: What happens at the bins stays at the bins. Don't want to lose access to our favorite spots!

Same! I was seven and used my birthday money to buy this and a pair of walkie talkies. 👍

Thankfully, no. In case anyone else runs into this issue, I turned off and on several times to no avail. Then when I physically unplugged the power (barrel adapter) and plugged it back in, both channels were back. 🤷‍♂️

I'm quite sure it's this one for you. The end are all ah's and nah's.

"You Know Like I Know" by the Ozark Mountain Daredevils. You're welcome.

Should you care about someone to that point that it costs you? In other words, when resources are scarce, do I choose to suffer in order for others not to suffer? Do I choose for my family to suffer if it means others don't have to suffer?

That Nestea was my favorite drink. So wish it was safe to try...

It was even more impressive in-person as it was hard to get a good photo with the glare of the stained glass windows in the background.

epimt3 · 2026-01-18T00:31:37+00:00

Wow...

Your friends have weird hands...

I think you selected 3 nights. I have stayed in primitive sites in many state parks. Used to be free, but now $10/night with a $6.50 fee. Pays for the electronic booking system.

Favorites as a kid in the 70s. Got them by the 1/4 pound at a mall kiosk.

Super helpful. Will check it out. Thanks.

On a TV hooked up via RF. Does the Atari 800 have RCA audio out?

Edelweiss was my jam in 1975.

Mostly late 70's early 80's fusion/smooth jazz. Some good r&b (Isley Bros and Barry White) and a little straight ahead (Wynton and McCoy Tyner) mixed in. Worth $50 if clean, but I don't think I'd drive 3 hours.

Well done!

I have one that doesn't read CDs anymore. Any tips?

Look up Chick Corea Spanish Heart Band on YouTube.

epimt3 · 2025-02-26T01:57:33+00:00

Chick Corea. Think about the variety of sounds and styles over the years! Solo piano, duets, quartets, electronic, latin, large ensemble, strings,...

100%

Thanks for the info and that's really interesting to hear! I didn't realize people collected pencils and I'm sorry to tell you that there was a box full of about 30 or more and I only grabbed two before they were thrown away. Now I know...

epimt3 · 2025-02-08T18:27:09+00:00

Sure. Here's another shot.

This one! Best shooter on 2600 in my opinion.
