River ,'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I need to get better internet at home. Sigh.
My trainee is a 22 year old, one contract gig under her belt, first time living out of her home state. But she seems pretty adventurous, so. Still, she's MY charge, I feel protective & rather inept. Gonna spend tomorrow doing a massive whiteboard session on our system & crash course in Baltimore. Other hires have been a bit older & more experienced. But then, none of this was done for me & I figured it out. Still.
Now to decide if I want to get like, a Netflix subscription or something? (I do have a Roku) Actually what I really need is my PARENTS' cable info...lol
meara, I share my niece's Netflix account, and gave my niece and my sister my Hulu login information. Seems to work out pretty well...
I use Youtube a lot more than I expected, in order to see Trevor Noah and John Oliver clips. Plus since I don't have cable, it's where I watch new Steven Universe episodes.

Yeah, I used to use my old roommate's Netflix account, and she used my NYTimes account. But she canceled Netflix (I think she went with Hulu instead? I haven't asked)
Had no idea Beverly's automotive past was so interesting. Imagine driving Detroit steel overseas!
My 1968 Valiant was called The Tank. It was completely reliable for me over the 150,000 miles I put on after the first owner did 125,000. All my youthful adventures were enabled by that car. I would probably still own it if it hadn't been T-boned by a teenage driver making a careless left turn. I sold it to a mechanic couple who planned an engine transplant for their own beloved Valiant and I've always believed that slant-6 engine is still roaming the Bay Area.
What a great car it was! I've had more comfortable cars since then but never one so beloved.
I have no opinions on cars, as I don't drive (yet. One more thing I need to change, better sooner than later).
However, I do have strong opinions on the need to kick and then let mules run over certain catalogers whose work I have now corrected for over a day's work now (misidentifying materials' type even when the type is clearly written on them; misidentifying dates; writing the general topic of the textual material but not the title of the text).
My daughter is starting off with an 11 year old Honda Fit
Your daughter and I will have the same car, Gud. The last time I took it in for an oil change, the mechanic said it looked good for another 11 years. Your daughter's will probably last even longer, given her mechanically savvy father.
Trump is in KC today. When I dropped my son off at work they were already starting to block off a big section of downtown. He can't leave his building during the day since all vehicle and pedestrian traffic will be disallowed in an several block area. It was supposed to be after rush hour, but it was already hard to drive around at 6:45 this morning and there were emergency vehicles, secret service, and police in body armor all over the place.
My sister (recent acquisition. You're not crazy if you don't remember me having a sister) is campaigning for a Jeep. My parents rented a jeep when they were in town for the wedding. Everyone hated it, except her, but that may have been out of adolescent orneriness as much as anything.
People who say weddings go by so fast...we had the opposite time skew. Things that happened a week ago feel like a month ago.

Does this mean your family has jumped the shark?
Last month was a lifetime ago, Debet! Congratulations, by the way - I don't think I actually said so on FB
