That's nice but it's not as though it's difficult to find a plug in digital display electric alarm clock with battery backup. John is running out of things to post about. Jill |

I'm sorry you have a problem with reading for comprehension. Are you still using the McGuffey Readers? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McGuffey_Readers Maybe we should type more s l o w l y so your mind can fill in the blanks. :) Only twits constantly point out typos.

In the perfect world, we would all use the same newsreader but we don't. Evidently what Thomas uses doesn't add quotes. I don't mind clicking on the active link to see what he's talking about. Same with Dsi1 who often gets yelled at for posting a comment without linefeeds and some here have to scroll sideways to read. My newsreader is set to wrap all incoming mail so I don't have that scrolling problem. |

| "Julie Bove" <juliebove@frontier.com>: May 27 06:47PM -0700 I ordered from a restaurant supply store, delivered by Instacart. The sad thing is, I didn't discover that they were out of some things until Mohamed was gathering my order. I paid about $6 between delivery fee and tip for a small box of things. Only ordered two produce items. The celery was fine. The blackberries were very sour. Winco today. Beans and rice were back! Canned soup was slim pickin's. I didn't need any.. Just noticed as I walked by that not much was there. Especially Progresso. Noticed more bare spot here and there but again, not things I needed so not sure what was there. A man was putting out a new box of green bell peppers. Lots of damaged ones in the box but I found two small ones that looked good. Meat prices were up. Only bought one small package of chicken tenders. Mostly what they had were huge packages and the meat looked kind of scrappy or fatty. I mostly bought canned goods as they are cheaper there. Won't have to go back for a while. |

Then I refreshed her memory, "The guy with 100 > McDonalds Hamburgers in the freezer?", and she said that sounded > vaguely familiar. LOL Close enough. It was actually 40 hamburgers in the freezer at a time, back when they had that 25 cent sale. I would buy $10 worth at a time (plus $1 tax) The mass quantities was odd but not for me. Once I found that they last well frozen, I bought that way until the sale finally ended. Early 90's I think it was. > It's all there on Facebook if you don't believe me.

I've seen many news reports showing long lines waiting to get in a crowded store and many long lines for checkout. Virus or not, I won't ever go to a very crowded store not even if they have the best sale in the universe. The annual Black Friday super sales come to mind. As far as going out. I go outside ever single day. Long walks, the occasional running, bike rides and even surfing once the ocean warms up a bit more. I also go out and hang out in my van early every morning to see the pre-sunrise sky. Any trips to any stores are early morning for me when they are never crowded. |

The > reason there was long lines for one or two days is because they > limited the number of people inside a store... I won't ever stand in a long line to get into any store no matter why it's happening. I went one day in the beginning of this mess. Early morning and the entire giant parking lot was filled with cars, even their satellite parking area. I'd never seen it so crowded. Talking about a grocery store only. No other stores there. No lines waiting outside - everyone was inside. Huge crowd and you better believe that the checkout lines inside were long. I drove into the lot, saw all the cars, and drove right out again and headed home. "Homey don't play that." |

Connecting with people is not a trait that's associated with people with ASD. His friends/teachers believe that he's going to be famous one day. Two of them want to leave their property with him when they die. That's so weird. They should be leaving their stuff to me. After all, they're my friends! I wouldn't expect any less from your children. With such a wonderful father, the children can only be wonderful people too. You win the competition, with Janet UK as runner up. Her children were reading and quoting Shakespeare while still in diapers. |

You can also make it just by stirring "prepared horseradish" with mayo. Close enough. I've never started with raw horseradish but I do use the "prepared horseradish" heavily. Especially in cocktail sauce. I always keep a small jar in the fridge. |
| Gary <g.majors@att.net>: May 28 11:04AM -0400 I've always been curious. You live in farm country. Did a previous owner of your current place ever use all that land that you mow for crops at one time? I know that many grow corn in your area. I was familiar with Galway, NY many years ago. (1980's) Somewhat near you, isn't it? |
