I've gone out of my way to watch that show a couple times in the last few weeks. It truly is a national treasure that I overlook far too often. 55 years worth of shows and they've only had two hosts. Amazing. I hope they end it when Trebek has to step down. And F that disease, particularly the pancreatic variety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 We just had a regular department meeting that they hold quarterly. At the start, they announced that one woman was retiring. After a little talk about how long she's been here, someone asked her when she's leaving. The woman responded "right now", then immediately stood up and walked out. It was the best exit I've ever seen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like how much longer would I have been able to play if I could have held the bow in a physically natural position while still being able to get my left hand around the neck? Probably would still be able to play today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

German bow gave me a larger dynamic range but my control with the French was better, even though it was tougher to hold for long preiods of time.

I'm actually toying with the idea of getting an upright again. They are just sooo much money. Hopefully the student models have gotten better.

No one, but you and I, say the Bells of Prince Far I +++++ I can only assume that you mean that Gary didn't age well and not the awesome Clash City Rockers. Do you know that those particular lyrics are a play on a very old and traditional English nursery rhyme ... Oranges and Lemons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogre Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 I absolutely love to garden. I’m pumped for another growing season! This stuff is just messing around for fun but I have some big plans. I’ve already added to the orchard I started last fall. It’s a huge addiction for me. Check out that root ball on that celery plant! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) I am sitting in a really boring meeting about artwork and where it should be placed in a certain building to which I have a connection. There is exactly one person in this meeting who is younger than I am, and I'm no kid anymore. Everyone has a very long-winded opinion about whose portrait belongs where. So I'm screwing around on Sabrespace. Edited April 2, 2019 by Eleven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon Web Services, essentially when people say "Cloud". They're pretty similar to the other AWS ads, just with an accent.

Wyldnwoody44 Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 It took me 28 hours to get home from Dehli, such a damn mess...

Outstanding album that did change my life back in 1980. IMO, it's not their best work. Try 'Sandinista' next. IMO, it's their bestest. Nice accent, mate.
