I've been staring at Google Maps, and everything has changed so much from my childhood memories. I only recognize the lemon statue/thingy. I think we were pretty close to B'way on LG Ave. Normal Heights will never not be funny!

Time to go to bed, need to rise early to dose the pups 3 hours before their vet appt. My last 10 rescues loved the vet, these guys came with serious vet trauma. I wish I knew their history. Today, we'll chill with lots of loving and a few extra treats.

Ah, well then. If they island hopped at all, I hope the OR contingent met up and enjoyed a home brew together! You know how they are with home brewing! Lol

I don't remember any long shaggy dog jokes, but please do post if you remember. Every little chuckle is appreciated in *waves arms about in air* these chaotic times.

I was born in San Diego, grew up in San Carlos on the La Mesa border, and in the 60s went to a freakish Christian day school in Lemon Grove (that church on the train tracks). I'm older than y'all, but wonder if we ever crossed tracks. Oh, and graduated from El Cajon Valley High School. Hiya! *waves*

Did he mention the name of the parlor in Hawaii? My last tat was done by one of two brothers that we knew who were originally from the Newberg area and had relocated to Maui. Spike and Jaxon. (Would happily DM a pic, I've always thought it is an exceptional design).

It was just a mundane phone call to check off the 'to do' list that went kinda sideways, and I got a good chuckle out of it.

We were lucky to have an "alternative" video store nearby, so we were able to find/rent a bunch of them. And most were quite good.

Yeah, no, they said the privacy of the former owners was protected, after I said, "There's no hipaa for dogs!" Lol

I forget if I once told you that when I rescued my current two pups and called the chip company to update the info, they told me I was the 4th name on the account but couldn't tell me more due to hipaa! Apparently, the previous owners are protected (not the dogs). Also, chip those pets, people!!!

Listening right now, it's nice in that it's crisp and energetic, but hard for me to rate it above the OG recordings and the versions I saw at live shows! I think it's a great cover, but doesn't have the fabulous live, "Oh, lord, now!" energy. Yet I agree it's a great cover. So glad you shared it!

I don't know if it's still standing, but back in my day, North wrote the guidelines for implementing marshall law and suspending the US Constitution. He has never not been a baddie.

He's already been good in the roles he's played, but I like the Bautista reference because I think they are both talented, good, and kind people!

I adore him. As an actor, he's always reminded me of Bruce Willis in the way that there's an underlying sweetness, or maybe kindness, that seems to come through.

Campaign news has overshadowed this.

For all those who missed it: the administration announced $1 billion to help communities be more resilient to climate change/natural hazards.

iirc, I would not have watched Koyaanisqatsi, Strangers in Good Company, or Repo Man (as well as a bunch of other films) if not for that book. Ohhh, I think I need to do a search for it, even though it's super outdated.

Back in those days, our favorite holiday gift for guests and acquaintances was a niche paperback book titled something like, "The 101 Best Videos You Haven't Seen." It was such a great pre/early internet resource. Also saved a lot of time not wandering about the video store aisles aimlessly.

"Over rehearsed" is right up there with "alternative facts." Just overt denials of reality.

I may well be alone on this one, I love the Rickie Lee Jones cover of Under the Boardwalk. It's more soulful than peppy, but a few toes may still be tapped.

Wasn't the fairness doctrine about "fair time" in the media? I agree Reagan bad, cable also exempted but I honestly never understood that fair doctrine addressed falsehoods.

The only way would be if those same nightly programs refuted the lies, say next night, yet if they're the program spreading the lies, I see how that would be difficult.

@sesmith.bsky.social Upon rescuing current pups, took them to a "chain" vet a block from home for nail trim (had NO idea they had vet stress). Tech said, don't ever bring them here w/o sedating first. Me: can I get an Rx for sedative? Tech: No, vet won't examine w/o sedative in order to prescribe.

I'm sure you've more experience than me with these things, but if you're concerned about the lack of gabapentin, removing sutures is generally painless. They'll clip the suture with scissors and pull it out with tweezers. The baby may feel a slight tug but rarely pain. Huzzah for Ash's recovery.

Ay, there's a public parking strip across the street from me and some dudes are there shooting off fireworks and yelping. Lots of yelping. Hopefully, they're roving and will move on soon.
