I have an objection to register about today's Connections.
"Palm" and "Pom(eranian)" are not homophones.
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

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 haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Dana you made me go do connections so I could read your spoiler font, and while I did get it with no mistakes, I immediately said “oh I bet what Dana said is…” and I was right. And I agree with you. (I ended up with the last four because I’d gotten the others and not because I knew what they were supposed to be)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Heartwarming memories per my calendar of the Hec and JZ wedding. I understand the element of melancholy but mostly I remember it being magnificent and magical.
I have a pile-up of associations with this date now: Our wedding anniversary, JZ's memorial, Bay-To-Breakers this weekend (and the bizarre memory of having to cross the race full of people running in dinosaur costumes with JZ's ashes to deliver them to her mother).
22 years ago, Jacqueline and I got married. And it was magical.
In a moment of synchrony, shuffle just pulled up The Smiths "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out."

Thrive to spite them
I only saw pictures of your wedding but it was magical.

We have answers for mom! She has statin intolerance. They must have called her first thing because she let me know before 830.
She will go off her meds and they are going to monitor her. She has an appointment on Monday and I guess she is going to drive herself. Because I work and I have Tuesday off but if I switch my day off to Monday that means I work 6 days In a row and I cant do that.
I'm going to see how she's doing tomorrow and see if I should go up there tomorrow or wait until Tuesday.
