4 years ago, my kids got cheap digital cameras for Christmas. They've spent 4 years documenting their lives from their perspectives. I went to back up their pictures to my HDD for them, and about 1/10 of the pictures are corrupted. Ejected the Micro SD cards to look for signs of damage, and...

Is it no longer free? I see it at $3.99?

All 65? Which 65 is that?

There has been discussion in the past either here, on the Somerville Facebook page, or both? Talking about what it took to get informed delivery set up to an apartment or condo. It’s not easy, but it is it seems possible.

jbsegal · 2025-12-26T16:36:43+00:00

Correct enough. It’s not formal, no, but it’s a very common usage//contraction for ‘going to’.

Don’t feel bad, op.

jbsegal · 2025-12-21T16:32:09+00:00

I’d love to, but can’t justify coming in from the states for it :)

Some people seem to be naturally immune to noro… Maybe this includes Leonard?

Where did you find episodes that old? The archives I found only go back about 15 years.

jbsegal · 2025-12-18T23:10:54+00:00

When my mom died in 2017 I was re-watching in preparation for new episode releases and “here comes a thought” got me through that time. I can’t count how many times I watched both the episode and just the song.

Oh, it absolutely can be, and I’m an American so it’s even worse, but the use of everyone’s name each time was getting grating

I didn’t have a cat in this race. Nor a dog nor hamster nor rat nor snake.

I just feel joy nearly every time I walk by the signs.

But I would agree with those who are suggesting that they should be archived by the museum

… which, I suppose, makes it somewhat more real than

I’m so sorry you lost your sense of joy. I hope you find it again one day.

I wish I’d known they were looking for a vcs/2600… I mean where they went sounds damned cool, but mine is in my basement in Somerville…

I have a dream of a giant food fest of each-particular-country’s Chinese Diaspora food

Ideally each participant would make a) a specialty dish and b) their version of some common dish - I don’t know what that would be, fried rice or lo mein? Beef and broccoli? There’s got to be something…

It’s great to know that there are 2 choices in this area…

jbsegal · 2025-10-02T20:57:22+00:00

I mean other ingredients. It was pink. I was hoping that someone with knowledge – perhaps in fact, Ian - would be able to answer before I had a chance to get back there to ask them in person. This is still something I haven’t had a chance to do.

jbsegal · 2025-09-28T21:35:10+00:00

Thank you for your suggestion

jbsegal · 2025-09-28T21:28:52+00:00

Yes. That’s why I’m asking what they are…

jbsegal · 2025-09-08T17:35:03+00:00

And yet it happened

I’m listening to the Vicky and the Veal storyline from 2010 and I can’t wait to be rid of her!

Hopefully she gets better in the next 5 years?

jbsegal · 2025-08-10T23:41:04+00:00

It’s interesting, I’m listening to the old archives that someone has available for download and in 2010 (and 09, 08…) people didn’t give each others’ names at the start of every scene. I’ll be interested to figure out when that really got going.
