• A brief summary --- well maybe not so brief

    From da pickle@21:1/5 to All on Sun May 14 08:49:49 2023
    I leave and I return.

    Over a thousand posts. Most ignored, but many were almost interesting.

    Most interesting ... BillB apparently found out that my wife and I were
    in Vancouver and were there to GET HIM. We arrived on April 4th but
    were only there a couple of hours on our way to Australia. He
    apparently somehow found out the date of our return because he
    disappeared when we had some time to visit on our return. If he was
    real, he would bone up, but we all know ... you know.

    I wonder if he has just become "someone" new? Is anyone "new" that
    might fit?

    Most of the posts are drivel, as usual, but there were some interesting
    posts from risky and Paul and jack roth and Tim and BTS and [those
    missed ... post here ... voting later]. Definition of the WORD
    "interesting" obviously open to question.

    Unfortunately, nothing much changed. Sides seem firm and unfaltering.

    Had a great trip ... Dallas a few days before and after with family ...
    long flight to Australia (brief stop in Vancouver) ... a week in
    Brisbane ... Quantum of the Seas - 17 days at sea to Hawaii (our 64th
    cruise) and then 10 days at sea to Vancouver (CardPlayerCruises poker
    cruise - our 65th) ... lots of great stops in the South Pacific and Hawaii.

    Good to be home. Found a kitten that needs a home. Our 7
    indoor/outdoor cats (and a stray that stays under the house) are more
    than we need. If we keep this new one we will need another because our
    older cats will not play with a kitten. And we are too old to take in
    more that will all need to be re-homed someday.

    Why can't we all just be friends and learn that most of us seem like
    really nice people?

    [I do believe that there does not appear (to me) to be a "good" solution
    to the problems existing in our country. No matter who is elected
    president, the great RESET is coming IMO ... it is going to be a hard
    time for many.]

    Sokay. I had been trying to look into your list of books/articles to see if you might be the person to ask a question of but was interrupted (another trip to the ER), and now lost the list. I'll try looking back in all these posts and attempt to find it,
    if is your writings..
