Subj : I'm being slammed by thes To : Daryl Stout From : Barry Martin Date : Sun Nov 01 2020 08:16:00 Hi Daryl! BM> Yup, really! Our highly-paid designer suit-wearing lawyers said so! DS> Attorney: Have Lawsuit (their attire), will travel. :P BM> Much more appropriate on the job than just grabbing a Goodyear or BM> Michelin for their office a-tire! DS> Sold by a gentleman named Ray D.L. Wonder if he's from Whiteside County? (Probably only works locally: it's in Illinois.) BM> They have lunch in the courtroom? "Dis order mine!" DS> Judge: Order In The Court!! DS> Defendant: Pizza And Beer For Everybody!! Wonder if that could be considered a bribe? BM> Well, y'know when putting all the pieces together it's called BM> "connecting the dots"! DS> Yeah, this is true...never mind paint by number. Then, you have DS> the black and white drawings to "paint" for "the lazy" (they're DS> going to be black and white, anyway). :P Well I suppose if just the outlines then the painting would be the filling in. And might be a great option for severely colour-blind people! BM> a necessary evil. DS> That's the call of nature...necessary, and if you don't take DS> care of it...then it becomes evil. :P Ends up being on big mess! BM> As for the mask, I've seen a few in my limited travels. Some people BM> just find wearing a mask very uncomfortable. Medically a face screen BM> might provide more protection than a mask does because the face mask BM> also covers the eyes: another access point. DS> If the mask is too tight, I agree. The ones I have fit very DS> nicely. I've seen some masks worn where the ear strings are twisted over; not sure if to make fit tighter or to take up the slack. ...Did see a relatively cheaply-priced box on Amazon some time ago with ear strings rather than ear loops: tie together to make your own custom length. One of the comments was the strings were almost too short to tie together. BM> There should also have been "Elementary School Chemistry"! DS> Just don't let the pure sodium come in contact with air or DS> water (it will ignite -- that's why it's stored in kerosene). Sounds like a great class for aspiring pyromaniacs! BM> They just wanted the burgers flame broiled! DS> At one local Burger King, the hood did catch fire. No one was DS> hurt, but the restaurant was closed for several weeks for DS> remodeling. Smoke can do a lot of damage, and perhaps the venting path through the ceiling and roof was also damaged. BM> You already considered, so next! DS> The doctor extended the antibiotic another week. If I'm still DS> having issues in 2 weeks, they'll do another ultrasound (and this DS> time, it likely will be done by an ugly male, than a pretty DS> female ). So would a handsome male make things more agreeable?! BM> We had snow Monday morning, maybe a couple tenths of an inch - just BM> enough to cover things. And has been cool enough here there was a BM> little bit of snow on the car bumper yesterday (Wednesday) late BM> morning. DS> We may see our first frost and freeze on Monday morning. Early-ish Sunday morning - DST ended: combination of slept-in and up early depending on which clock system. At freezing and windy: 19 MPH sustained, gusts to 40 MPH. We already had our first below-freezing morning about a week ago with 28ø. DS> Besides, if we raise the bar, it makes it too hard to get the DS> drinks. BM> And then it would be hard to belly up to the bar! DS> They'd find a way. :P Bigger bellies? ¯ BarryMartin3@ ® ¯ @MyMetronet.NET ® .... "Let's string him up!" "No!
