Uneaixoise

Morning, all :-)

6:53 am

MollyL

Une, have you seen Louboutina the hugging dog in New York City?

6:54 am

ItalianGreyhound

Well, Ts are done. Gotta get some caffeine

6:56 am

MollyL

55 of them, but not hard to get through

7:20 am

ItalianGreyhound

Coffee helped - 134 left

7:26 am

'morning

7:26 am

BzznBea

Good morning, welki.

7:29 am

welki

enjoying the new ride, bea?

7:32 am

BzznBea

I am. Don't drive it much as I just tootle around town so I drive the more economical Hyundai. But we are getting ready to go on a road trip so I will get to do a lot of driving then.

7:32 am

welki

it'll be like driving a very well-appointed boat :)

7:33 am

BzznBea

Pretty much. LOL! It takes a long time for the back end to get around corners.

7:34 am

welki

does it have the auto-park feature? we have it on our vehicles, but i don't think we've ever used them - might be helpful parallel parking, if you're brave enough to trust the technology

7:35 am

72 Temple Owl

hello

7:35 am

welki

then again, i'd be inclined to search for pull through spots *lol*

7:36 am

welki

owl! how goes it?

7:36 am

BzznBea

It has park assist, but not sure what that means. And yes, I'm the same as you with parking.

7:36 am

72 Temple Owl

going well today

7:36 am

72 Temple Owl

and you?

7:37 am

welki

when i lived in nyc, i could parallel park like a pro - now, i can do it, but slowly, very slowly

7:37 am

welki

doing okay, thanks - days are getting shorter, but determined to enjoy every last bit of sunshine/daylight while i can

7:38 am

bichon

Where in NYC did you live, welki?

7:38 am

welki

brooklyn and queens

7:40 am

HarryHood

God's' country :)

7:40 am

welki

i miss the city (mostly, i miss the sea)

7:41 am

HarryHood

nyc is so very different than when I lived there

7:42 am

HarryHood

though the outer boros not so much different

7:43 am

welki

i moved from ny to nj in 1978 and to canada in 1997, and have visited often, but yes and no - different, but very much the same

7:45 am

welki

when i moved here, my husband wanted to impress me with calgary's skyline - he took a special route so i could see it, and when i did, he said, 'welcome to your new city.,' and asked me how i liked the skyline. i told him it was cute.

7:45 am

HarryHood

hah

7:46 am

MLFAN17

found my first 7

7:46 am

HarryHood

on the other hand, the tri state area doesn't have much in the way of rodeos.

7:46 am

welki

he was hurt, he was insulted and told me calgary was a big city ...

7:46 am

HarryHood

mlf! what happened to your black avatar!?!!?

7:47 am

welki

some time later, we flew into newark and as we approached, i told him to have a look at the skyline. he mumbled, he grumbled and said, 'okay, i get it.'

7:47 am

HarryHood

funny story

7:47 am

MLFAN17

its a pic which i have to change again

7:49 am

welki

(calgary doesn't have much in the way of rodeos either - the stampede is like the worst overdone midway in the world. the rodeo events are the same no matter where you are, but the stampede is all concrete - broke my little heart when i saw it for the first time, i was expected the stuff i dreamed of when i was a kid)

7:49 am

MollyL

MLF is doing a review of all of her old avatars

7:49 am

HarryHood

wow I cant believe that. I though the stampede was a real rodeo

7:49 am

MLFAN17

what do you mean molly?

7:50 am

welki

the events are as real as they get, but are held within a compound at the fringe of the downtown core

7:50 am

HarryHood

I did find a decent vegetarian restaurant in calgary though

7:50 am

HarryHood

there was a sort of hippy part of town

7:50 am

welki

inglewood

7:50 am

HarryHood

yes. this was in early 90s though.

7:51 am

welki

kensington is like that, too, but not as artsy-craftsy

7:51 am

welki

hahaha, and mission, for the trending, neo-hippies

7:52 am

HarryHood

I was at a conference in edmonton, then spent awhile in the rockies and ended in calgary

7:53 am

welki

you were probably as wowed by the skyline, all three blocks of it, as i was :D

7:53 am

HarryHood

so wowed that I don't even remember it

7:54 am

welki

^...^^^...^^.^^ <--- looked sort of like this

7:55 am

BzznBea

LOL!

7:55 am

welki

truthfully, calgary is a pretty city, just small in comparison

7:55 am

HarryHood

I was in edmonton during a stanley cup playoff between the oilers and the devils. and I was from NJ at the time.

7:55 am

HarryHood

there was some "tension"

7:55 am

hokie carla

I wasn't that impressed with Calgary

7:56 am

welki

calgary was good to me, but we won't be moving back

7:58 am

HarryHood

gotta run - 91 for later

7:58 am

welki

tell me something, carla - did you find calgarians friendly, not friendly or aloof?

7:59 am

welki

bye, harry

7:59 am

hokie carla

we didn't interact enough to get a feel for that.

8:00 am

hokie carla

I just thought the city looked kinda run down (incl. the olympic park we went to) and had a lot of cookie cutter house neighborhoods not unlike charlotte.

8:01 am

MLFAN17

may i have stats for teh single o pls?

8:01 am

welki

you were here in 2019, right?

8:02 am

hokie carla

yes, that's right. last spring break before the pandemic.

8:02 am

welki

the oil and gas industry took a huge hit and calgary's economy tanked big time, leaving many unemployed and much of the office space downtown unoccupied. 'depressed' would be the right word, in a couple of ways

8:03 am

welki

you're spot on about the urban residential sprawl - lots of new developments

8:04 am

BzznBea

or4

8:04 am

MLFAN17

duh ty bzz

8:05 am

hokie carla

I had a canadian soccer friend here who said her sister lives there and was trying to get her to move there but she didn't like it either. LOL

8:10 am

MLFAN17

is the9 a compound word?

8:10 am

BzznBea

no

8:10 am

welki

the culture shock is stronger than you might think - other than the changes in weights/measures and currency (which are enough to make you nuts to start with), there are lots of subtle, but substantial differences between living here and in the states

8:11 am

MLFAN17

ty bzz

8:12 am

hokie carla

since she was canadian, I don't think that was it. she just thought calgary was ugly. I think she was from Hamilton. no idea what that is like.

8:13 am

welki

hamilton isn't all that different city-wise, but it's on lake ontario

8:14 am

welki

who knows - different strokes for different folks

8:15 am

hokie carla

yeah, I just rem. calgary had all those neighborhoods with no trees. it just looked kinda bare. maybe it was gloomy weather when we were there.

8:15 am

welki

at the end of the day, it's what you bring to a place, not what you take from it, that makes it home

8:15 am

welki

to be fair, there aren't many trees on the praries

8:16 am

welki

prairies

8:16 am

hokie carla

I'll never forget when we flew in and drove to Canmore it was rainy and very foggy. The next morning when I went outside in Canmore I could not believe what I was seeing. Majestic snowy mountains completely surrounding the town.

8:16 am

BzznBea

NC has so many trees you can't see the beyond.

8:17 am

MLFAN17

lol

8:17 am

hokie carla

I would move to Canmore in a heartbeat if they didn't have elk and grizzlies roaming through town on the regular.

8:17 am

MLFAN17

bzz where i live they took some down and its a bit breeier and we can sees the rooad

8:18 am

BzznBea

We are looking forward to driving back to the midwest where you can see for miles.

8:19 am

MLFAN17

yeah you can see for miles

8:19 am

hokie carla

LOL, I remember driving through the state of Arkansas thinking this is the flattest place I've ever seen. yes, I know they have the Ozarks but we didn't see them.

8:21 am

hokie carla

we loved our 7 week cross country trip but I gotta say, when we got back to KY, it was like, ah, this is more like home. there was grass and trees!

8:21 am

MLFAN17

drive thru iowa talk about flat lol

8:21 am

welki

that's how saskatchewan is - cornball expression here is that you can watch your dog run away for hours

8:21 am

BzznBea

When you see the Flint HIlls in KS you will be in awe.

8:22 am

MLFAN17

wow welk

8:22 am

hokie carla

somehow we avoided KS entirely on our trip

8:22 am

Zanmac

`How do I add words to the list?

8:23 am

hokie carla

I think Kansas City was the closest we got

8:23 am

hokie carla

Zanmac, do you mean on the Lickety List?

8:23 am

Zanmac

yes

8:24 am

hokie carla

there's a link at the top for Bulk Add, that will take you to a box on the bottom. just copy/paste your word list from here into that box then hit enter.

8:24 am

MLFAN17

i have never been able to

8:24 am

hokie carla

it will populate

8:24 am

Zanmac

thankyou so much!

8:25 am

hokie carla

then to add single ones you might find after bulk adding you can just hit enter and it will take you to the little box at the top where you type in the word

8:25 am

Nice. I like it when it rains and things get green.

12:06 pm

cybernan

has the fire situation in CA improved any?

12:07 pm

joym999

not really. I'm 100s of miles from the fires and the air is really hazy. They've evacuated most of the California side of Lake Tahoe.

12:08 pm

not good - we just have one fire that is still close to houses.

mkg

Your daughter converted to a new religion? Wow. That is not easy

5:06 pm

mkg

Got the bo 7 word. Weird one. Ty for clues.

5:06 pm

Trifioso

not fully - she has a beau from a very committed family and she is learning from them, to decide if she wants to convert later.

5:06 pm

Trifioso

she has my full support in this endeavor. Its all the same road, just with different buses, isn't it?

5:09 pm

5:17 pm

Different paths to the same God. Great quote.

5:28 pm

MollyL

â€œGod has made different religions to suit different aspirations, times, and countries. All doctrines are only so many paths; but a path is by no means God Himself.â€ A more contemporary version of this argument runs like this: all religions are like the spokes of a wheel that all end in the same center. ~ Huston Smith

5:29 pm

Trifioso

"one road, many buses" is easier to say, lol

5:29 pm

MollyL

Who was quoting Ramakrishna

10:48 pm

I'm sure I've forgotten a few disasters. ðŸ˜¥

10:51 pm

Minveryork

joym999,any predictions on the future of your Governor?

10:53 pm

joym999

I don't think he's get recalled.

10:53 pm

joym999

I don't love him, but I love the recall even less.

10:53 pm

joym999

There are 40+ people on the ballot, so someone could win with less than 5% of the votes.

10:54 pm

Minveryork

Two major Governors from 2 major states are both in the hot se 4/4. Actually, one is already OUT of his hot se4/4.

10:56 pm

Minveryork

Joe Biden and Harris might be coming to CA to campaign on his behalf I heard. I'd be pretty nervous if I were him.

10:56 pm

joym999

I'm sure he's nervous. We'll all nervous.

10:57 pm

joym999

How's your new Governor?

10:58 pm

Minveryork

I also heard this is the SIXTH recall,but I think this one is more tense for him than the others. The others were b4 Covid I think. Do not know much about new NY Governor

10:59 pm

Minveryork

She must better than the previous Governor though. She certainly can't be any worse! I think it is cool that she is the FIRST female Governor that New York has ever had.

11:00 pm

joym999

hard to believe that she's NY's first woman gov!

11:02 pm

Minveryork

Noun for Don Trump is a phantom in the grid: NARCISSIST

ðŸ˜‚ðŸ¤£ LOL ðŸ¤£ðŸ˜‚

11:07 pm

Governor AC got what he deserved! How come the same can't be said for the Orange one? Guess Rump has deeper pockets than Andrew Cuomo! He will NEVER go to prison
