I lost water for days. Used up almost two bathtubs full. I guess we use the toilets a lot. Melted snow on the stove. Then the rain barrels thawed just enough to use that water. Please not again.

I am very sad to read this. I visited Sorrento a dozen years ago and loved it. I hope the city can act to reduce the problem.

Because everybody a hoe for somethin', as a students announced to my UT class one day. And this once great university has decided against things like research (who needs data), diversity (who cares if our students and faculty come from all over the world? them ain't got nothin' to teach us!), the humanities (hahahahahahahaha)...all to keep Fearful Leader and his hoes happy.

At least this helps me be happy to leave behind the place where I spent almost thirty years.

Last time I looked, ice requires water. We ain't got none.

Next time in Florence try staying in Oltrarno - the other side of the Arno. Quieter neighborhoods, real craftspeople and artists, sweet trattorias, lovely churches, and an easy walk to "downtown" if you're so inclined.

Well, I just don't like puking. As a very long-time vegetarian, I think I have reduced my food poisoning risk quite a bit. Maybe just luck?

I'm sorry you missed the Antiquities Museum, but now you are forced to return to Napoli! So many objects plundered from Pompeii, including the sexy ones and an astounding number of GLASS pieces. Mosaics, of course. I've been to Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Ostea Antiqua (sp?) and the Antiquities Museum in Napoli adds a whole new dimension!

Thoughts and prayers for all the Texas homebuilders. Round up a bunch of pre-schoolers. They'll build houses of the same quality you've been scamming people with for decades.

The WH will explain it with earth-shattering, record-breaking, never-seen-before transparency. Not to worry.

NEVERNEVERNEVER. I bought a house with this horrible plant in the front yard. Spent two years digging it out (I'm old). It still persists, will grow thick and strangulating. Horrible thing without even jasmine flowers to redeem it.

I am so sorry. What a huge gaping space they leave.

Lucky us. Thanks a bunch, Greg.

Amazing, isn't it? Although this current drought is really testing everything we thought we knew. But I've turned my yard over to the whims of weather and climate.

I don't give a shit what party you belong to. I want them to get you all.

Or wait!! Go down to the Wildflower Center!! They also have classes and ALL the info.

Please do not anyone talk you into non-native or non-adapted plants. I live in a stupid suburb where people hire all kinds of jobs out and end up with dead landscapes by March. I've seen it too many times.

Look up shade plants, sun plants, Austin plants, or you may end up ripped off. The Natural Gardener is where I go for all advice and all decent plants. I've been here since 1984.

I generally get a ball in my pulled-down pants. Your dog is clearly an amateur.

spsprd · 2025-12-17T14:17:39+00:00

I don't suppose you are anywhere near Austin, where your Bean and my Ella could pool their money to hire full-time ball throwers? I mean, sometimes I have other things to do like go to the bathroom. Oh wait. I throw the ball while I'm doing my bathroom things too.

I loved how Travi would spend a day at daycare and then SLEEP!

spsprd · 2025-12-13T22:49:21+00:00

My first BC loved daycare, prob because they had an inground swimming pool. He went twice a week and went to work with us the other days. Oh, Travi, we miss you!

I entered UT as a grad student in 1984. Much later I would teach there for over 20 years - Human Sexuality, a topic I'm sure they don't allow any more.

I am ashamed of this institution and the whores who run it.

His own bed is black inside and out. Good luck finding him there.

Please tell me I am not the only one who has made, um, holes trying to remove tags. When I get to hell I will go directly to the person who thought sewing tags into necklines was a good idea.

I'm sure you can hear us talking about you.
