    @Joe Riley - would probably work better than the forecasters :p

    @Von Jones - Same here, or should I say ear :D
    Try cupping your hand slightly over one ear and notice the difference

    Doggone it!! And I just had a couple extra ordinaries the other day and sold them. If I had known that someone in this discussion group badly needed an ordinary I would have gladly given it to them. I'll look and see if I have a picture of them directly after I get a round toit. https://www.bing.com/images/search?...&thid=OIP.Mf10164833c8802f1df7bf16b00315628o0
    Actually, ordinaries are pretty easy to come by so a search on Craig's list might find that someone else has an extra one they will part with.

    And I think I might do that right after I finish playing a game of solitaire toe ketch.
    Actually, as curious as I am about all things involving mathematics, I'll probably wind up counting chirps at some point or other.
    Oh wait! I remember one the other night and it only chirped about 3 or 4 times and then nothing. If it was indeed only 4 then that would mean that the temp was only 41 and I'm sure it was around 90 or so. Dunno.......

    Okay, now I hear a continuous cricket going at maybe 100 miles a minute and then I hear a sporactic cricket. I wonder which species was caught for the basis of this rumor going around.:confused:

    Hi my dear friends. I've been without the Internet for the past couple of weeks, and sure did miss everybody. Pip was upset with what I was paying out for a land phone (never use) and Internet service. We decided to go with another carrier. Of course start-up fees are always expensive and just the other night we changed over. :D...YES!

    Glad that you got things changed around and internet working again, @Marilyn Pahl ! ! It is never any fun trying to change from one service provider to a different one, and horrible when you have to go without internet service in the in-between time.
    We have had to go through that before, too. Usually, you can plant things out so that the new one is being hooked up right after the old one is disconnected, but even a few days seems like forever when you can't get online and check email and forums and Facebook.
    We stopped our home phoone because we didn't use it, too. In fact, all t was, was a nuisance, because the only phone calls we got on it were either wrong numbers or telemarketers. And we hardly even used it to make a call, certainly not enough to justify having the phone.
    We haven't missed it one little bit.

    Random thoughts now for Halloween they are saying that the costumes cannot be racists now just a thought if a Mexican goes out in a Mexican costume is he racists of course not but if you did not know it was a Mexican person would call it racists. If a Mexican goes out and dresses like a white American person is that racists? If some on dresses up as a hillbilly is that racist even if it was from China? If someone dresses up as a Muslim would that be racist because that is not a races but a region. Seems like anyone that they don’t like is now classed as racists

    I just read that some school is forbidding clown costumes because of some weirdo clown somewhere.

    Clowns used to be funny but now they are perverts. :)

    I don't mean to offend anyone who is afraid of them...I know some people are.
