Thanks for the pictures. I like the second one best but that's probably
because I used to be a printer. Quilting is big on this rock. Mostly, it's
done by the older generation. My guess is that it's some kind of thing that
the missionaries taught because it was seen as a wholesome, activity that
kept idle hands busy. The Hawaiian quilts are mostly based on plant motifs.

At least you knew that a shrew was a small, mouse-like creature. We don't have no stinkin' shrews here. I saw that play in grade school. It was a barrel of laughs - not! OTOH, Lawrence Harvey as Hamlet is a role not to be missed!

Free for kid me. Don't know if mom and dad paid.
 
Many of my school years were in the Washington DC
suburbs and so many of our school field trips were
to tourist attractions in the nations capital.
 
The White House
Supreme Court building
Capital building
Lincoln and Jefferson memorials
A few to Smithsonian museum buildings
Washington monument
National Art gallery on and on...
 
Even a trip to Mt.Vernon once where George Washington
lived. The guide there pointed out the actual bed that
he died on. TMO

Your parents likely paid via school taxes.

When we lived in Virginia when I was a kid I went on separate school
field trips to Monticello, Mount Vernon and the Smithsonian.
 
Monticello was way cool because Thomas Jefferson had a bed set in the
wall between his bedroom and his office. He could get out of bed in
either room, depending on where he wanted to be. Jefferson invented the
"Lazy Susan" and the Dumb Waiter. We all know he owned slaves; he
didn't want the slaves listening in to dinner conversations so he the
food was delivered via a series of pullies. Only the most trusted staff
was allowed in the room to serve and (we were told) they were dismissed
as soon as the food was on the table.
 
I have several Lazy Susans in my kitchen. One is right next to the
stove for things I often reach for when I'm cooking.
 
Oh dear, about Monticello, look at this:
 
https://www.monticello.org/
 
Monticello has re-opened in the wake of Covid-19. How sad is it to see
kids in that image wearing face masks? <sigh>
 
Anyway, when we went to the Smithsonian on the field trip the teachers
suggested we bring some "pocket money" in case we wanted to buy
souveniers in the gift shop. I bought a couple of Audubon bird prints.
Parakeets! I still have those Audubon prints. :)

Not what he means at all. A gram is a gram, but the volume of material
to make up that gram varies with the gravity force of each planet.
Earth is 9.807 m/s2 but Jupiter is 24.79. That can explain the
differences in weight of a cup.
 
Conclusion: Joke remains funny

As a young person I had many penpals and worldwide. In those days we
wrote with fountain pens. I own many fountain pens but rarely write
with them anymore. I used to write checks with fountain pens but now
ball points do. About the only time I use fountain pens lately is for
sending holiday cards. I don't pen letters anymore because no one
writes back... young people can't write.

I'm sure they'll be glad to have a break from the hot weather. 35C is
hot for Gemerany... or at least it used to be. I enjoy our winters in
some ways, but I've also been away from the hot weather for too long
now and I miss it.

I think that kind of heat is fairly standard now in Germany:(

Yep! But I Nordictraced yesterday for 20mins furiously and am a fan of EXERCISE! And in hids retirement my father took up long distance bicycling, and was the oldest rider in his last RAGBRAI ride across Iowa at over 80 years old!
 
So I have long life genes in me!

For the bargain basement base price of $113,671.00 + $80/hr + materials for subroof repair! But for a 100 year red clay tile DRY roof, now I can retire in peace! In 6 years, I will retire on full SocSec benefits projected to be $1600/mo and I will run for Mayor of Bel Nor and hopefully influence some changes for the positive, for all Bel Norians and others as well! :-)
 
When it is done find someone with a drone to take photos of it. You
really can't appreciate how nice the roof is from the ground.

Good luck with that. Facts don't seem to matter much with people today.

I remember that but not all the ingredients.
Black beans and what else? I'd like to try
it someday but not for breakfast. :)

Kuthe isn't a "princess", much as he'd like to be. Really, Gary, would
you enjoy eating garlic mashed potatoes, rice and beans topped with
veggies every single day? Sounds boring as hell to me.

I have no idea what Bruce eats. If he cooks anything he sure hasn't
mentioned much about it.

> Works well for me.
 
I don't have a standard meal of any kind. I don't eat breakfast every
day but when I do it's closer to brunch/lunch time. I like eggs but I
don't eat them every day nor do I necessarily cook them the same way
every time. Scrambled (with or without cheese), soft boiled, over easy,
basted... depends on my mood.
 
When I do cook eggs (breakfast or breakfast for dinner) sometimes I have
bacon with them. Other times I prefer a couple of link sausages or a
couple of sausage patties. On rare occasions I'll make "home fries" to
go with. Sometimes with a buttered biscuit, sometimes a slice of
buttered toast. Or I'll have a bowl of grits. (I much prefer Lakeside
brand yellow grits.) I like peanut butter toast for breakfast on
occasion. Occasionally I have a bowl of oatmeal. Variety makes eating
so much more interesting. :)

No biggie for me, I stay at home all the time... I have plenty of
projects here and I prefer to work alone, at my job I worked alone all
my life... operating machine tools is a one person job. Here I mow
grass alone, I work at gardening alone, and I always cook alone.

That's interesting to know. I've never cared much for salt
brined pickles. I guess because their slices are so thin and
also flavored with the burger....

No. Sometimes, I'll use malt vinegar to dip fries into.

The practical effects of microwaving are irrelevant to me. Even if I
ate honey I wouldn't care if it were antimicrobial.
 
But it's still interesting.
 
I read articles about child-rearing even though I have no children.
