I think of this when I reach out to some other organization and ask to make things better.

I'm ignored more often than not. But a few times I've made things better.

In my version you could have a better idea whether you'd have huge gaps in your schedule. Maybe that isn't the ideal reason to choose classes, but it's certainly realistic.

So I reached out and asked whether they'd host my version as well, and they did. For years.

My wife was commuting an hour each way and trying to figure out her schedule. So I dug through their site, found the course schedule data, wrote a new page that let you sort and filter a bit better.

I hope you celebrated....

Roulette!

Was the silliness caused by the gummy, by any chance?

And I didn't tell her of my classmate, who went fishing at the reservoir with his little brother. His little brother who dropped his watch into the water, went after it, and got his arm sucked into a pipe.

Ahh, "Mr and Mrs Macknet."

Try, "Dr Macknet and Ms Davis"

Literally the only institution in the world who gets the "Dr" correct is the university which issued it.

I just love the commas in the statement. Guess he can't even be bothered to write his own grumbling.

I'm noting the differently coloured surround and find it fascinating. It's a technique used in wax stamping today and I don't know why I thought it was modern.

Oh, you can get out, if you want to feel like a failure before the unshaven armpits of a Berkeley hippie, as you flap your salty, bare feet down the hall to the shower. 🤣

Hope you've found some peaceful time!

Float tanks. There's a place in Berkeley (or there was, years ago). Did it a few times. It's like waiting in airport security but without anyone to look at or talk to and you can't tell how much longer until you're finally free.

I don't know if you can block / unblock them, like you used to do with the bird?

That is awesome! I've done a variety of Simnel cake, but was not at all concerned with the form. Seeing this, I recall that choice. 😁

Well done!

Distribution group how?

If you block the list creator you're removed from their starter pack. Does that work?

Yours is worse: a job for a semi-governmental, local job vs Cyprus. 😁

Mattress warmer. Takes the variability out of the equation and also discourages some of the cuddling.

Works for spouses as well. 🤣

When in doubt, booze?

(Presuming that's fruitcake. Looks delicious either way.)
