BM> The loss of messages didn't really help but 'poop occurs'. DS> That's what I need...to read my QWK packet on the throne. Nah: I don't like it when people say they read books and magazines in there. NB> Daryl in last night's packet... guess his setup workings let a NB> few more old unsent messages go out.... this time to ILink NB> chat... ;) DS> Packets seem to get bigger every day over here. You're only supposed to pass 'em through PKUNZIP once! BM> And do do sometimes the "Reverse Polish Notation" math: $2.99 + $5.99 BM> is $3 + $6, so $9 and then take off the two cents: $8.98! DS> I round up the dollar in the checkbook, so the math is easier. DS> Plus, it gives me a bit of a cushion, in case I screw something DS> up. When it comes to money I essentially have to know to the penny. BM> As for next school year -- presuming they're going back to the BM> classroom but not 100% certain. Have heard snippets of the various BM> local school boards are considering various options, asking for BM> parental input on what they would like to do, what worked and didn't BM> work last session (during COVID-19), etc. DS> I saw where the NCAA has announced a proposed plan for college DS> football this fall.

Here most are staying isolated/independent (talking pre- BM> COVID-19) but still keeping a casual eye on each other. DS> Or like the guy who had a glass eye, and with a violent sneeze, DS> it came out. This blonde retrieved it, and returned it to DS> him...but she thought he was in love with her, when he told her DS> "you just caught my eye". Good thing that didn't happen at the pool hall! Eyeball in the corner pocket! BM> True. Quite certain a very thorough inspection will be made before BM> opening the schools back up. DS> If we could see all the germs out there, we'd likely have a DS> heart attack. It's sickening! BM> I would assume so, yes. It would seem logical (oops!) the BM> refrigerators and freezers would have been cleaned out by someone after BM> a reasonable period of time to allow the owner time to collect. DS> When food goes bad, you open the door, and everything is DS> holding weapons toward you, demanding money. And you were worried about the germs! ¯ ® ¯ Barry_Martin_3@ ® ¯ @Q.COM ® ¯ ® ....
