I think the idea is to reinforce that being thoughtless is a bad idea while also make sure that no feud has started.
This precisely.
And, yes brenda, I've decided to not even go there with the boat. My suspicion is not proof by any stretch, so no need for that. I'm not even sure I should mention it to my landlord, owner of the boat. Honestly, I'm sort of amazed that the thing has set there for 10 years, undisturbed anyway.
If he asks, I'll speak the truth as I know it. Otherwise, probably not.
Now that I'm all geared up for 'the talk', I'm frustrated that no one is around. I've also trying to find out whether or not it is a rental. This will inform any future action, if required.
A friend already mentioned that the noise ordinance requires quiet time after 10pm.
Shuh!! When has that ever been enforced around here. Then again, good to know.
This is a dumb question because I have been reading the updates, but do we know what happened to Drew? I know he had his gallbladder removed and then something went wrong? It's just freaky hat he had a minor surgery and now will be in the hospital for weeks.
ION, my SIL had a 9 lb, 14oz baby boy named Levi Quentin today. I am impressed by her accomplishment.
Perhaps you should give them some hemorrhoid medication, Bonny. Or high-fiber cookies.

He has pancreatis. They think maybe a gallstone got loose and did some damage.
Okay, it was the pancreatitis that put him in the hospital. It's just so freaky that ine could have surgery and end up so much worse.

My original impulse was to lean out the window and 'join the conversation' with a remedy suggestion. Shoulda done that. But I just got so mad! These folks are definitely bearing the brunt of my disgust over the lack of civility in society in general. I have to cop to that.
One recommendation in the dog park was that I write a note and include the wikipedia page in re: the disorder.
Honestly though, I'm not even sure the residents were present at this point, so I'm going to save the jokey stuff until I know for sure.
When you make cookies for them, consider making chocolate Ex-lax chip cookies.

Bwahhaha. It's a good kind of evil.
In other news, for the love of pete, I just read that the novelist famous for The Horse Whisperer nearly killed himself, his wife and her brother (a Scottish clan chief, no less) by feeding them all a poisoned mushroom dish.
They will all need kidney transplants.
He goes on at length about how careful he normally is to check the guidebooks for anything he forages. On this day, he did not.
Everyone involved is unbelievably cheerful about it...in print anyway...I'm not sure how I would live with myself after a mistake like that.

Stephanie, gallstones are the most common cause of pancreatitis aside from alcohol abuse. The surgery may have knocked a stone loose, but it's equally possible that one could have escaped even if he had never had the surgery--that's what happened to my aunt years ago. She had to wait five months for her pancreas to completely heal before she could even have her gall bladder out. There's no way to know if Drew's surgery caused the stone to be retained or if it would have happened regardless. Pancreatitis is really the only true danger of gall bladder disease. Drew just had exceptionally bad luck--a stone caught in the common bile duct that then caused inflammation of his pancreas and liver. He had/has both cholangitis (an infection of the bile duct) and moderately severe pancreatitis. You can look here for more: [link]
Wow, I killed the thread but good with oversimplified medical mumbo jumbo.
