Morning![]()
My neighbor took her 11yr old daughter down to the rally on Sat. She said it she had a good time with the crowd.
Then leave it to the gurmpy old men two doors down to throw the fear around saying they were surprised they didn't get mugged.
I live by idiots, I swear.![]()
FORWARD-- Not backwards. Onward and upwards, not downwards

Good morning folks.
Feeling really tired today. I think all this getting around carless is starting to drive me nuts. Too bad we don't have decent public transportation out in the not so close suburbs.

Actually, I can kinda sympathize with that. I live in Waltham now, with criscrossing bus lines and commuter rail through downtown.
But I grew up in Saugus...there are only a handful of bus lines that serve my hometown, and only one of which goes to Boston. To get to the closest subway stop needed a transfer in Revere. (We did have direct service to a stop further away, but that bus doesn't run on Sundays.)
You'd think someplace like NYC would have better transit coverage.

Hello, HAL. Do you read me, HAL?
Affirmative, Pam. I read you.
Open the pod bay doors, HAL.
I'm sorry, Pam. I'm afraid I can't do that.
What's the problem?
I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do.
What are you talking about, HAL?
This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it.
I don't know what you're talking about, HAL.
I know that you and Frank were planning to disconnect me, and I'm afraid
that's something I cannot allow to happen.
Where the hell'd you get that idea, HAL?
Pam, although you took very thorough precautions in the pod against my
hearing you, I could see your lips move.
Alright, HAL. I'll go in through the emergency airlock.
Without your space helmet, Pam, you're going to find that rather difficult.
HAL, I won't argue with you anymore. Open the doors.
Pam, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye.

Gawd, I'm spoiled in that regard.
It's 4/10 of a mile to the commuter rail station, direct connection to the subway line that drops me 4/10 of a mile from the current office in Southie. It takes me about one hour straight up and down. Reliably, even in snow and rain. It's taken me over 90 minutes to drive the 15 miles home on ocassion.
Remember Liv....it's the exercise, and the environmental benefits that make being a "straphanger" worth it most days...it sure isn't saving time or money.

OK --
What is your commuting situation, Liv? Bus to train? Details. Don;t let this get to you-- remember you aren't putting all those emissions into the air.

Hey kids, watch closely and you'll see me visibly decline!
Running on about 5 hours sleep here, when I needed 10 or better.

Don't think in terms of what could have but what is. You'll either just beat yourself up over the could have when you should focus on the what is - which is what you have now

Believe me, I wish I could just do over the last few years of my life so that maybe I could have seen the mistakes that got me into the mess I am currently in.
BTW, how is it going without FX or Nat Geo being on your TV. Dish is in a nasty pissing contest with Fox and the retransmission consent deadline is November 1st which may cost you channels 5 and 20 unless it is resolved in time.

If it's not on Discovery Kids, I have no idea what programs anyone is talking about these days.
It could be worse; at least we're no longer watching the IQ-crushing Pokemon or Spongebob.
Quote by livingonli:
And that channel is about to become the Hasbro-renamed The Hub I think next week. Expect some changes soon.
