I pray you'll all receive thousands of delightful little surprises. Oh that Grinch. I have yet to see that movie but I like the tune. https://youtu.be/XKWZ8p3pDQg?si=iQz7RW-tpkBilfvS

Jo Ann Try to see the movie. It has a happy ending. The Grinch's heart grows three times larger, and everyone is happy.

Last night, I sat outside after dark. There was a lot of activity in the sky. Most were airplanes. We live near an airport so that is not surprising. I know what airplanes look like and sound like. Other lights were not easy to...

Jo Ann @JudyEv We see a lot of airplanes and helicopters. It is the strange light that is hard to figure out.

Jo Ann @aureategloom, Yes they do have wonderful ideas and creativity if you just dump the legos in a pile and tell them to make something.

Jo Ann I don't have any Legos. My kids did when they were growing up. I sometimes played with them. I had tinker toys when I was a kid.

After a brief "comments conversation" with a MyLot member this morning, I went to fetch little anecdote about street life in Oakland CA. It's from the "Street Life" chapter of my (forthcoming, I hope) book about working with...

I’ve read 68 books so far this year. Once I finish three more books I borrowed from the library I’ll be at 71 books. My goal was to read 75 books by the end of the year. I hope I can do it as I’m so close. It will be a bummer...

Jo Ann @TheHorse My favorite poet is Robert Louis Stevenson. I read "A Child's Garden of Verses" when I was little. I loved the poems. I like other poetry also.

Jo Ann @aureategloom I don't make myself read something boring. If I get half way through and don't care what happens, I stop. "There are so many books and so little time." Frank Zappa got it right. I just go on to the next book and hope it is great.

Jo Ann @lovebuglena It is a fantasy book. He loved it. I was forcing him to read the book because he was not fond of reading. He got a little way into it and forgot I was there. He read that and then found another book and read it. He has read many books since then.

Jo Ann @rakski Something unusual happened a couple of days ago. I heard a helicopter. I looked up and saw it was huge, and the rotors were not turning. It was still flying, and it looked like a helicopter. It was white, not like a drone. The rotors were not going...

Jo Ann @Deepizzaguy There is no way we can know for sure. I don't know who the drones belong to. Are they our government, adversary government, project Bluebeam, or space aliens? Someone claimed to see them coming out of the ocean. I hope that's not true.

Jo Ann @JudyEv, how do you know that some of them are not drones? When I was a kid, I saw strange lights when we were out in the desert. They were not airplanes. I don't know if there were any drones yet.

Jo Ann I have not felt safe since this mess started. I don't know who is up there or why they are there. We live in strange times and they are getting stranger.
