Subj : moving or not To : Daryl Stout From : Barry Martin Date : Sun Jan 19 2020 09:06:00 Hi Daryl! BM>You'd be excited this morning: 32ø, drizzling, so icy. Even the in-town BM>schools are on a delay. And tomorrow morning we're supposed to be BM>waking up to around 8ø. ...And the weekend is chilly: BM> Sat Jan 18: 38/-2 øF Sun Jan 19: -0/-7 øF DS> At least, you won't have insects to worry about. Stupid drivers DS> are another matter. :P Haven't seen any insects for some time. Cleaning a bit in the basement and have found a few dead ones. BM>In general I'll agree. Not watching any of the non-educational cartoons BM>so nothing to compare. We used to watch _The Simpsons_; don't recall BM>the reasoning for stopping. I used to watch _SouthPark_; stopped about BM>the time they switched grades (3rd to 4th? Was years ago): the original BM>swearing, etc., was almost too much but the plots were quirky. DS> My main cartoons were: DS> 1) Looney Tunes (Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Road Runner, Wile E. DS> Coyote, Foghorn Leghorn, Porky Pig, Sylvester Cat, Tweety Pie, DS> etc.). All good ones. DS> 2) Hanna-Barbera (Pixie And Dixie (and Mr. Jinx), Quickdraw DS> McGraw, Wally Gator, Touche' Turtle (and Dum-Dum), Huckleberry DS> Hound, Yogi Bear, The Flintstones, Scooby Doo, Speed Buggy, Hong DS> Kong Phooey, etc.) Hmmm: Pixie And Dixie (and Mr. Jinx) -- Don't recognize at all Quickdraw McGraw -- remember him Wally Gator, Touche' Turtle (and Dum-Dum) -- maybe Wally, other no Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear, The Flintstones, Scooby Doo -- if one doesn't recognize these they've been living under a rock! Speed Buggy, Hong Kong Phooey, etc. -- Back to not recognizing these guys. DS> Yes, I'm showing my age. Well the Flintstones are back on one of the retro TV channels, so a whole new generation might be appreciating them. Maybe the others will return too. BM> DS> I purchased travel insurance just in case. BM>Hopefully a waste of money! DS> It's like when you pack for a trip. You put everything AND the DS> kitchen sink in the case...especially when it came to medicines. Medicines are different from clothing. Well, I'm thinking prescribed medications; if one has frequent headaches or body aches bringing alonh aspirin, etc., probably a good idea. If OTOH it's packed just in case I'd say excess. 15 shirts for a three day weekend is excess -- unless one is some sort of show or modelling. BM> Just supposed to be cold tomorrow when I do my Thursday BM>Morning meanderings, which includes a bit of grocery shopping. Wonder BM>what surprises are in store? (Pun intended.) DS> I've got to get some flavored water today. I may also get some DS> bread and lunch meat. "It was interesting": lots of things moved, floor tile had been removed in most of the aisles. The liquor store (attached) was in-progress of being moved next door so the grocery store portion could expand into it. Was kind of funny: some guy walked in (from the grocery store entrance) with his cart and the just stopped and looked around, then walked away. About the middle third of the liquor store was empty, the front third had partially stocked shelves, the back third looked to be filled with carts filled with liquor bottles. ¯ ® ¯ Barry_Martin_3@ ® ¯ @Q.COM ® ¯ ® ....
