Nothing creepy about that, Jill. Men of all ages enjoy looking
at pretty females. It doesn't have any alt.meaning. Just nice
to look at. I'd hang out on the purple deck with John and
a cooler of beer myself to enjoy that view.

Now you're just speculating and gossiping.
 
Why do you sit out on your back patio to read in the hot
sun? Maybe some nice looking golfers are playing through?
Are you hoping they might see you and be interested?

Doesn't she already have an imaginary partner?

Get your cat to email and ask Buffy. She would know. ;)

Men look. Women look. What's creepy is posting about it.

I'm not speculating. Look up his old posts about it. He was hoping to
entice them to rent rooms from him and who knows what else.

I sit outside and read when the weather is nice. I don't care about the
golfers. The chairs on the patio don't face the golf course so I'm not
ogling them like Kuthe clearly did. Have you forgotten his obsession
with April, the bank teller?

It started as just a coupe lines, and I kept expanding on it. It
actually came to me pretty easily. I'd make a good paranoid
schizophrenic, but the writing style was too coherent. I need to be
more disjointed and irate. Maybe John could put his personal touch
on it and make it more realistic.

Every plastic water bottle, carelessly discarded, ends up in my yard. They
were the worst idea ever.
Canteens and tap water help the Earth. Having me transport tons of plastic
water bottles to the Pacific Gyre hurts the Earth and costs me greatly.

I like the way you put that, Janet! "Tepid water does not make my mouth
happy." :) I don't like tepid water. Before I had this fridge with an
icemaker I had 6 ice cube trays stacked in the top freezer and was
constantly refilling them. I also had a pitcher of water in the fridge
so if I ran out of ice I would at least be drinking *cold* water.

I like Spam occasionally but I buy the "25% Less Sodium" kind.
It's still quite salty.

I think most boardwalks along the ocean were originally
made of board planking, hence the name.
 
In my lifetime, all that I've seen have been replaced
with concrete. Mine here is about 3 miles long and smooth
and good for skating. :)
 
Best fun is to go on a windy day. First skate into the wind,
like walking uphill on a mountain. Then turn and skate with
the strong wind. Often just a few skating motions to get
moving and the wind will push you all the way to the other end.
Fun to do.

You don't have a lot of people walking on it?

Yes, that sounds plausible.

I'd break something. Skating and roller skating are not for me. The
last time I ice skated, I raced my brother. Except he can skate and I
had to use willpower. I ended up with a concussion.

And on a cold, windy winter day there are very few people there.
That's when the oceanfront is especially nice.

i'm not sure what the comment is about, but "a serving",
"serving size" and "serving suggestions" used to be common
things printed on packages here. i don't really see or
read too many packages these days to know if that is still
the case.
 
the ideas of serving dinner, serving someone at the table,
taking a single serving of some item, these are all common
concepts to me even if i don't think of them in those words
when i'm doing them (i just do things i don't necessarily
have to put words to things as i do them).

peel and boil taters (or if not going to peel then
you can scrub 'em), chunk 'em, add whatever vinegar
you like along with fried onions and bacon. but
perhaps you don't like fried onions and mushy bacon?
 
i'm pretty happy with apple cider vinegar, some
sugar and fried onions. i don't need any meat at all.
 
if i do want bacon i prefer it crunchy and on top
not all mushy and mixed in.
 
adjust all ingredients and proportions to taste.
 
we just made german potato salad yesterday and
it's ok. i like it both cold and warmed up or hot.
with or without meats. with or without onions but i
do prefer it with. bacon, definitely like it much
better crumbled on top at the last moments. sometimes
i've eaten the bacon and had it sizzle the saliva in
my mouth as i've forgotten how hot it can get in
the microwave. freaked out my nephew some days ago.
he thought i really burned my tongue.

Thanks O. I just watched that on my other computer. Very cute
stuff. Dog and ferret become friends. My cat accepted my
first ferrets and they became good friends too.
 
That was fun to watch. Now I miss a ferret or two all of the
sudden. Such cool animals.

Ahaaaaaaaaa do I see a wee ferret in your near future??? :))

Childish + Dumb + Pompous don't mix well. It's like a tossed salad
of lettuce, Nutella, and spaghetti sauce.

Sounds like the recently implemented American roundabout. No one knows which
direction or lane I'll be traveling.

Thinking about replacing my aging impact-bonded cookware and ran across the Breville line. Any experiences with it? At the moment and probably for the foreseeable future I'll be using an electric stove.
 
If not Breville what's a brand you favor?
