Subj : Re: Foods To : NANCY BACKUS From : Daryl Stout Date : Sat Apr 06 2019 11:52:00 Nancy, NB> DS> good sandwich snack. Just put it between 2 pieces of bread, add NB> DS> mustard, bacon bits, etc., and it's lunch time. NB>OK... I had bought a bunch of Funions onion ring snacks, and just scarfed a good bit of them down. NB>True. Our mechanics would have let us take the car home in a similar NB>situation.... as they say, they know where we live, so they trust us to NB>come up with the money in good time... meanwhile, they don't have to NB>store the vehicle.... :) Unfortunately, not everyone is honest. I was 2 cents short paying for a purchase at the Post Office today, and the clerk said (I hope sarcastically) "I'll lock your Post Office Box until you give me my 2 cents". :P NB>I understand that after a certain age, the reviews stretch to 8 years... NB>and once you turn 65 or so (maybe just 62), the disability turns into NB>regular retirement, and there aren't any more reviews... Really?? I resigned from work in 2004, and applied for disability...it was granted in 2006, retroactive. So, I had to do a "review" in 2009 and 2014...so by rights, there should be another one this year. All I'd have to do is send in a 12 page medical list, and they'd see why I can't work again. NB>There are some things that do work against being able to serve as a NB>juror... :) One guy said he'd get out by saying "I can spot a guilty [insert race/ethnic group here] halfway across a room"...but I would've said "Only The Lord and the defendant know whether or not they're guilty. If they are guilty, and are acquitted by a jury of their peers, they'll fare much worse when they die. So, they might as well save us all the time and trouble, and confess now". :P NB>Hopefully you will be able to get that last chance... :) I sure hope so. NB>And are probably less of a danger to the environment... True. Next thing you know, they'll be declaring sidewalks as hazardous. :P Well, they are, if you're enamored in your smartphone, and not paying attention to where you're going. One woman was that way, and walked into the side of a moving train. Another doing similar, tripped and fell into a public fountain. NB> DS> Tragically, Steve was killed by a sting from a stingray a few years NB> DS> ago. NB>Yes, I remember all that... :) I still miss him. Everyone thought he'd get killed by a crocodile, and not a stingray. NB> DS> Steve finally went up to the camera, and said "Would you all just go NB> DS> away??!!" . NB>:) When one of the TV anchors was killed in a car wreck, the entire crew was in tears. But, they noted "we have to show these bloopers", and it made everyone smile. NB>As you know, I'm not a fan of Windows... and am still happily using NB>DOS... Richard uses mostly DOS, and has installed Linux on some of his NB>machines which he uses second most.... Some of his machines do have NB>Windows, partly because there are times when he has to check something NB>out on multiple platforms... and partly because for some things one has NB>to use something from Windows to do certain things on the web... I've NB>learned that Windows10 can be useful for a few things... at least the NB>machine he has with the Win10 is a touchscreen, which makes things a NB>little less upsetting for me... I still don't know if I want to bite the upgrade bullet. NB> DS> þ OLX 1.53 þ The severity of the itch is proportional to the reach. NB>Only because you can't reach it to subdue it... ;) That's why I have a portable backscratcher. NB>... A bird in the hand makes it hard to blow your nose. Or get feathers shoved up your olfactory. :P Daryl === þ OLX 1.53 þ If you're consonated, maybe you need a vowel movement. --- SBBSecho 3.07-Win32 * Origin: FIDONet: The Thunderbolt BBS - tbolt.synchro.net (1:19/33) .
