That’s wonderful! It can be so hard to have the patience to do things the right way, but it sounds like you are motivated to listen to yourself and Sandy. It sucks getting old, but I am finding a lot of satisfaction from taking things more slowly, when I’m in the right mindset. I try to think of it as savoring the time I’ve got left no matter what.

Your comfort and happiness is as important as Sandy’s, and Sandy’s happiness is enriched when you are happy and healthy. Thanks for the update; always so happy to see Sandy in my feed.

I did! Thank you for this summary; I’ve never understood this very well until now. Whoever downvoted you without commenting deserves a stern talking to.

That’s definitely clamato.

Wow, thank you! I knew it looked menacing as soon as I saw it, but I didn’t make this connection. You are spot on. Why couldn’t they have made them look like anything other than a gun barrel??

Yes, but rarely can I figure out how to use it. Whether it’s a text, email, or web site I want to look at, the keys don’t work the way they are supposed to or the keys themselves do not make sense.

How is this not the top fucking comment??

Let us go, through certain half-deserted streets,

The muttering retreats

Of restless nights in one-night cheap hotels

And sawdust restaurants with oyster-shells:

Streets that follow like a tedious argument

Of insidious intent

To lead you to an overwhelming question …

Oh, do not ask, “What is it?”

Let us go and make our visit.

In the room the women come and go

Talking of Michelangelo.

The phrase is “One bad apple spoils the barrel.”

Literally means all are bad if one is bad.

Edit: verb simplification.

There is no way TWO adult men would sit philosophically by while a child banged his cock. Maybe one man, but not two.

But, but… That semi-colon should give anyone a nice little rest? Just sit there, looking at it until you are ready to go on. Just a sweet little pause to marinate at. Oh, yeah, alright, I’m feeling it now!

Or, if after a bit of a wait you still don’t want to ingest more of those words, then just move on if it is not necessary to your livelihood.

Also, and I know this is a old post so no worries if no one else sees this. But I have to memorialize this song as my second favorite James Taylor song. My mother’s friend made a cool wall hanger for her with the lyrics, and I still have it hanging on my wall 50+ years later. My mom and her are still friends, and at some point I’m going to bring this sucker out and have a cry-fest with them.

Edit: words are hard

Wow, I deeply appreciate you saying so. Thank you for being a good person, and rock on with your bad self. You have made my day, and I know you can do the same for others!

Back at you, Dave. I appreciate you and this post.
