March 16 - April 5 - 9 days January 16 - February 19 - a LOT of days Gosh people, I'm humbled that someone noticed. I'm still alive and kicking. I've been reading the forum most every day.

Re: Forum errors
I hadn't intended to change the colors, but the latest version of the "Elegance" style removed the 7 different color variations, of which "steel blue" was the one we used here. I could probably use an earlier version of the style and get our old colors back. New version is "...

Re: Putin Invades Ukraine II
Germany thwarted a planned attack by ISIS on Sweden’s Parliament building. Reddit: How could Ukraine do this? /s O0 One that bugs me is the use of "like", which has sadly expanded far beyond the Valley girls. Somebody will relay a story to me and say "I was like, 'what were you think...

Re: Putin Invades Ukraine II
Well you’ve covered a lot of ground, M. I don’t know if any of it has anything to do with Putin. But, our legal system does seem pretty messed up, in a multitude of ways. Perhaps Putin and his cronies are not involved, perhaps. Maybe it’s we the people who are most responsible. That’s even worse. B...

Re: Putin Invades Ukraine II
I think (note I said ‘think’ rather than the popular ‘feel’ often used by the woke) Putin and his cronies have invaded our legal system as well as the Ukraine: A TikTok influencer has used his account to encourage illegal aliens to take properties and invoke squatter’s rights. Property rights are in...

… Beets! They taste way too vinegary to me. Strange, as they are quite sugary. Dual, So you prefer white borscht? Who would have known. Sounds like a recipe opportunity for non-vinegar Vinny. ;-) Sugar beets (grown for production of sugar, not to eat like red beets) are generally white. Sorry for t...

Re: Replacing Xfinity (Comcast) modem
Vinny, if Verizon FiOS is available in your area you might tell Comcast you are considering switching. Could be a good bargaining tactic to get Comcast to give you a better deal. I’ve had good luck bargaining with Verizon.

Have you introduced foods to your fiancee that she never had before? Besides XO sauce. It's mostly her introducing me to new foods since I don't cook. :D Thanks to her I tasted borscht for the first time! Yummy and healthy. :) https://www.177milkstreet.com/assets/site/Recipes/_large/Ukrainian-Borsc...

Hey there Smithers, don’t get discouraged and down on yourself. There’s a reason old guys are still valuable for their sage knowledge. We too were once non-discriminating instant common-sewers.

Probably not. Vinny was mowing last year’s grass/weeds/shrubs all enhanced by gallons of human based nitrogen compounds. ;-)

Re: Occupied Land acknowledgements
When did acknowledging that your institution is on “Located on Occupied and Unceeded XYZ Ancestral Homelands” become a thing? Is it anything other than empty virtue signaling? See, the problem is that literally every grain of dirt was once inhabited by someone else (who wasn't a white male oppresso...

No biggie. It could be worse, or better depending on your perspective. You could be of Scottish descent and not know about haggis.

Re: Trump Supporters Say The Darndest Things!!!
I wonder what percentage of politicians are genuinely concerned with telling the truth? For example the “women’s rights” dressed up mantra that allows/condones killing of a human being. Or as we once heard, you can put lipstick on a pig but it’s still a pig. https://www.factcheck.org/2024/03/factch...
