I've lived in this area since 1964. Before that a time in Manhattan Beach, then near USC.
1:11 am
Christine
Oh, Bel Aitr, San Francisco, then MB

Really? I've only ever heard it used in exasperation...

I have a friend who is opening a Sushi and Sake bar in MB this weekend.

Hubby dragged me out here kicking and screaming when we got married. We had a bi-coastal dating relationship.

Where are you from?

1:13 am
SpellCheck
Really ru? Do tell...

1:15 am
melonheadjujube
Sorry if I offended you SpellC.
1:16 am
SpellCheck
I really wanted to live at the beach when we moved out here. Hubby worked in Culver City then, but I couldn't stand how close together the houses were.
1:16 am
SpellCheck
No offense taken Mel. I don't know what I said to give you that impression. I am not religious, so no talk like that would bother me.
1:17 am
rururocks
I also love Rustic Canyon and Chinois on Main in Santa Monica
1:17 am

Are you down here often Ru, your profile says Napa.
1:18 am
melonheadjujube
whew. I wasn't sure. I thought you meant it about names in vain and such. so, we're col? ;)
1:18 am
Christine
We had a four bedroom basement (Husb.-to-be + four friends), then I moved in. Huge place. Owner didn't want to run the risk of rotten young men-tenants, since she had teenaged daughters.
1:18 am
rururocks
I come to LA 5-6 times a year
1:19 am
rururocks
I'm really stuck now
1:19 am
SpellCheck
Actually, we're vegan, so restaurants are a bit more challenging for us. I really hate to reinvent a dish. I always feel if the chef hasn't designed the recipe you really don't stand a good chance of getting a better htan home cooked meal.
1:19 am
rururocks
I think they have lots of vegan choices there.. you'd have to ask though
1:20 am
SpellCheck
Ru, have you been to Lucques in West Hollywood? Best meal I've eaten in my lifetime.
1:20 am
rururocks
I love lucques and know the chef and owner very well
1:20 am
SpellCheck
Mel. we are completely cool. I don't know if you or I have offended anyone else though. ;-)
1:20 am
melonheadjujube
Doubt it. we're a laid back bunch here.
1:21 am
rururocks
<---holds breath in case someone gets offended
1:21 am
SpellCheck
Well, you can tell the chef that she's getting good press from us. She made a special vegan meal for hubby and me, and the other 4 in our party raved about there meals
1:21 am
SpellCheck
Mel... you can't fool me. I'm a lurker. I know better ;-)
1:21 am
rbud
<--- absolutely refuses to be offended, so there. ;p

One thing keeps me from vegan—cheese

so6 reminds me of the time my then young daughter misunderstood "assorted chocolates". Of course this is the same kid who thought obituary was a cuss word.
1:24 am
Christine
I think it's the same little girl. Her nanny was an Englishwoman that came to our church, occasionally brought Suzanne and her sister - can't remember the name.

8:49 am
Judi
My checkbook is staring at me. It wants to be balanced. Phhfth. Who doesn't.
8:49 am
smores
lol...judi
8:51 am
MimiCat
I agree, Judi. All math ever did for me was lower my grade point average.
8:51 am
smores
teehee....and they used math to do that
8:52 am
MimiCat
That's right, smores---a double whammy!
8:52 am
Judi
Ditto, mimi. I abandoned all math after 8th grade. English was my forte. It gave me valuable skills for Babble!
8:52 am
smores
You sound like my oldest girl Judi
8:52 am
MimiCat
I have a close friend who is an astrophysics prof here and he always thinks in terms of math---but I love him anyway!!
8:54 am
Judi
I greatly admire people who are adept at math. I just hit the wall after conquering algebra.
8:54 am
MimiCat
I have to take two algebra classes in order to finish my degree---sooo dreading doing that again!
8:55 am
smores
My daughter hates math, loves english. When they started algebra she came home outraged. " Math sucked enough with just numbers, now they're adding letters!!"
8:56 am
Judi
Yeeks. That would terrify me. Better line up a tutor now. It will be well worth it.
8:57 am
MimiCat
Funny, smores. I was lucky my ex is adept at algebra and helped our 3 kids get through it because I would have been useless.
8:57 am
Judi
Ah, so your kids can tutor you, Mimi. Bribes may be necessary.
8:57 am
MimiCat
The online school has a wonderful math resource so will be going to that site. Also, I spoke with a woman who gave me cheating pointers.....hey, I don't even need this stuff so why not cheat just to maintain my A average?!!!
8:58 am
MimiCat
Not only do I not need algebra (haven't used it in the 40 years since I took it the first time) but I have to PAY to take it when I don't even want it!!
8:59 am
smores
lol..that sucks mimi
8:59 am
Judi
You need a stunt math stand-in!
9:00 am
MimiCat
May have to get my friend to take the tests for me!! Nah, would be ashamed to do that. May change my mind once I get into it.
9:00 am
BzznBea
I always looked at algebra as a puzzle that had to be solved. You are given the code and the key, now solve.
9:00 am
smores
" cut " "cue the stand-in" lol
9:01 am
MimiCat
I mean, really, my major is Psychology---what do I care how much pi equals? I don't think in the middle of a personal crisis a client will ask me to solve an equation!!!
9:01 am

hi lyn
2:38 pm
crosshair
we had minus 42c up in north bay last year.was visiting my da and you could take a cup of warm water,toss it into the air and it would freeze into snow before it hit the ground..kids had great
2:38 pm
crosshair
howdy lynxx
2:38 pm
crosshair
great fun*
2:40 pm
TraderKate
minus 42 can NEVER be considered great fun...*sniff*
2:40 pm
crosshair
added bonus is no mosquito bites:)
2:42 pm
crosshair
no that one could get through the 15 layers i was wearing...
2:44 pm
lynxxx
that sounds so unattractive and I don't even like hot weather - a temperate climate for me (cept for these odd 40 degree days that is)
2:45 pm
crosshair
15-20 c is fine for crossy
2:45 pm
TraderKate
in north bay you have to worry about those stinkin' shad flies though - a couple years ago they were so thick the waterfront businesses closede!
2:46 pm
lynxxx
blech! they don't having a spraying program or something?
2:46 pm
crosshair
indeed kate! i remember as a kid swimming on lake nippising us kids used to climb up on those boat lists everyone used to have and try to jump out 5 or 6 feet to get past the carpet of dead shad flies floating at the shore line..but i tell you,they sure made the pickerell grow nice and fat:))
2:47 pm
lynxxx
mmm perhaps not spraying...what dines on shad flies?
2:47 pm
crosshair
better not to poison nature as the shad fly season is but 2 week long
2:48 pm
crosshair
the fish eat shad flys
2:48 pm
TraderKate
lol crossy! lyn - they are larvae in the lake, then come out as grown shad flies swimming up from the bottom then flying around - no way to spray
2:48 pm
lynxxx
fair enough - 2 weeks isn't bad
2:48 pm
TraderKate
that year was one of the worst ever...
2:48 pm
crosshair
no,we just brush them off the cars and building and park benches
2:49 pm
crosshair
my mum used to vacuum them off the bay windows
2:50 pm
lynxxx
so they come out of the water fully grown, fly around being a general pest and then die after 2 weeks?
2:50 pm
crosshair
big thing to remember was to put some bug screen over the nose of your car or they would clog up the cooling fins on the car radiator in no time
2:51 pm
crosshair
thats about it lynxx

3:49 pm
72 Temple Owl
you have a koi pond?
3:52 pm
lynxxx
not in my front yard! way too small - just a rectangle pond with waterlilies and other plants. Have comets and japanese rice fish...12 fish which I think is enough (though the rice fish are tiny so hopefully they will bred)
3:52 pm
72 Temple Owl
i never heard of rice fish. o knoe koi get as bi as their pond
3:53 pm
72 Temple Owl
whoever compile enable never owned a cat. if they did , hork would be accepted
3:54 pm
lynxxx
yeah I don't think I could even fit a koi pond in my back yard. Although I was looking at the larger fish at the aquarium the other day..they are pretty ugly. My comets are as long as my hand and they are much more attractive - to me anyway
3:54 pm
72 Temple Owl
i will look them up
3:56 pm

the rice fish are fun, very small and go quite golden with more UV...and dart about the pond quickly. AND eat mosquitos

4:56 pm
Jillyjill
But, notwithdstanding someone coughing into your face, most of the time if you keep your hands washed and away from your nose and mouth..you can avoid most viruses.
4:56 pm
Jillyjill
All people should be trained to cough into their elbow!!
4:56 pm
72 Temple Owl

With my sons so far away, I tend to find a few little things and then get them gift cards. Probably not the most creative but they always can use gift cards their way.
