In a similar style to Agatha Cristie. Lot's of fun.

Just started. I think this is gonna be fun!

I can see this happening all over again. LGBTQ are not the top priority of this administration at the moment. But Musk will lead the charge. They're going to come for us. Who's going to really stand with us is my only question. I know most of you will. ❤️

I applaud this as well. I should donate, but I still hold onto some resentment, as I was unwilling to lie about my sexuality in the 80's, and my donation attemps were not only unwanted, but I was treated extremely rudely by the blood bank staff. You'd think I'd have gotten past that by now.

Al was in the city today and texted me about my favorite breakfast place, not too far from his city house. I hadn't realized that it managed to stay open through the pandemic. He later texted pictures of their famous hashbrown sandwich. That was all the motivation I needed to head into the city. Even better than I remembered! After consuming that, I decided to visit my favorite SF bakery for their famous croissant pudding. Bread pudding made from their day old croissants. I'll save that for desert tonight.

I hate to keep hijacking Al's Birthday thread, but getting into a state-off with me is a bit like bringing a knife to a gunfight. What resources does Tennessee bring to the Country? Mini Pearl?

How is anyone supposed to compete with a comeback from a MENSA member? That was a brutal takedown! For an 8 year old.

Happy Birthday Al. Have an incredible day!

Heavy stuff, but done so well. Absolutely worth the watch.

Happy Birthday Nate!

I didn't even realize that you chose a KIA. Nice!

I don't remember it either. But as you and I have already figured out, the music we remember from the same span of time is often different.

So sorry for your loss. R.I.P. Karen. Damn! Life can be so cruel and so random.

I was indeed very happy to hear that you and Claire would be joining us! And simultaneously worried I didn't have enough food. I'm that guy that always overestimates (with the exception of penis size), and thankfully we had enough leftovers to feed 4 more people. Everyone had a go bag. The steaks were Flintstone size.

Here's hoping that the food coma didn't cominse until after you arrived home.

BTW, the above pic of the fishing vessel, is the very ship I crewed back in the early 90's.

Gathered grub to cook dinner at Dorothy's tonight. My landlord bought me a 4 pack of NY steaks for my Birthday, so Corrine, Dorothy and I will be having Steak, sautéed, multicolored baby potatoes, sautéed Brussels sprouts, sautéed mushrooms and a sourdough loaf. It's a sautéed evening I guess. Oh, the fourth steak will be divided unevenly between Walter and Maki, unless Dorothy has different ideas about that.

Some idea of the symbols I'd want, but would need to weave them in a cohesive manor. Where's Ed Wood when you really need him?

Nothing to do with what I did today, but thought this might be a good thread to gather ideas. I've been wanting to get an armband tattoo for a while now. I've thought about this for many years, and feel like I'm ready to pull the trigger. I'd like it to tell my life story. I'd of course like to represent my Carpentey career, I'd also like bring in my time commercial fishing in the Berring Sea. And lastly the fact that I'm a gay man. Nothing needs to be absolutely specific, and I'm not interested in having a big rainbow on my arm. Something more subtle about all three ideas. Oh, and possibly Suzy making an appearance. She will always be my special girl. I'm looking for ideas, possibly even some sketches to take to the tattoo artist. There are some very creative folks here, and I could use your help. I'm thinking midway up the arm, not a wrist band. Maybe 4" in overall width.

You forgot an image Brent... Happy Birthday Colin!

Just had a fantastic Birthday dinner at Rancho Nicasio with my four favorite people, Al, Claire, Dorothy and Corrine.

I'll be there before it's fully cool. Please set another place at the table.

Wait, what? That doesn't look like it's shaped like a vagina? I guess that's what "groovy" eludes to. Straight people and their subtleties, I just don't get it.

Got a Valentine's gift from a coworker. That's the nicest way I can think of to tell somebody to "eat a bag of dicks".

Does this also work on tape worms?
