Hubs and I were dating long distance and used to send emails back and forth on Bitnet back in 1989...where you'd get responses back to let you know that your message hit IUPUI, then SUNY -- then UWMadison -- then finally Marqueette.

I'm just so fucking delighted I never have to see Kristi Noem on a commercial ever again.

The always-mostly-frozen chocolate eclairs from Jewel. Ridiculously thick chocolate frosting outside, custardy crystals on the inside. Especially when they are BOGO for the package of three.

Is that the smallest theater in Chicago?

She has been such an epic disappointment

Heard this in the car yesterday and got all sassy singing at the top of my lungs. www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3a4...

I was too young to appreciate it in my 20s...but now that I'm in my 50s...this is a freakin ANTHEM.

Keep your direction of stitches standard…like start top left-to-bottom-right then bottom left-to-top right every square.

When the government arrests media for "obstructing justice" for merely reporting...we've turned a serious corner. @wgntv.com -- are you going to cover this story?

Can you give away the ending?

Happy birthday to you as well! :) Hope it was great -- I was a lazy sloth and enjoyed every second!

We share a birthday, and I was actually kind of looking forward to the peace and quiet post-rapture lol

Yes ma'am!

Though I'm not sure I'll try it again -- was a little hard on the wrists.

About 3 years ago. I'm turning 53 this month.

Dream PR Response: "It was a Sky Full of Stars on the kiss cam at the recent Coldplay concert, including our very own CEO and head of HR. While a couple of people may have Clocked that they were in Trouble, we want to assure our stakeholders that she only wanted Hymn for the Weekend.”

Similar to bunnies, who always threw their litters where my dogs could access, instead of moving three feet over where they couldn't.

Nooooo! Wishing her all the best

Absolutely. And we would harvest them and pretend to eat them to scare our siblings

Absolutely enraging. Between this and the governor's cronies usurping the position of duly-elected trustees, I don't even recognize my alma mater anymore.

A record album called Dueling Banjos from the movie Deliverance showing one banjo player sitting in a raised wooden structure, slightly elevated while another banjo player faces him below.  Creepy af.

Went thrifting the other day with my daughter and found this. Did people really buy the Deliverance Dueling Banjos album? "Honey, let me put on a little mood music..."

The muscle memory is STRONG. I took five years of piano lessons as a child, and just heard one of the Mozart concertos I used to play on the radio. I sat down at my hugely neglected Baldwin upright (way out of tune) and I played it! Badly, but my hands knew where to go. Surprised myself.

Oh. My. Word.

This split-second gaffe will HAUNT this man.

I work in pr, and can't tell you how often I type out that I work in pubic relations. WAY WORSE

It's nice to be able to share a piece of my childhood with my adult children. (The existential threat of nuclear war). The Day After scarred me for life...
