1-2-3 - Len Barry

It's a beautiful morning and I'm itching to get out and enjoy it. It is the NO wind moving that has my attention. There is a weather front headed straight for my area so I'll only ride in town. I hate riding in the rain so being close to home will be the answer until the front has passed.

Real At The Time - Bob Seger

It seems beautiful this morning. It is in the mid sixties with no wind at all. The radar in motion projects rain moving into my are in an hour. The weather does not look threatening at all. It doesn't look like there is much of a chance it missing us. What a welcomed sight.

I'm fixing sausage gravy and biscuits for dinner tonight. It's a favorite meal of mine.

An 85-year-old man had to take a sperm count for his physical exam.

The doctor gave him a jar and said, "Take this home and bring back a sample tomorrow." The next day the man returned to the office and handed him the jar, which was as clean and empty as the day before.

The doctor asked what happened, and the man explained,"Well, doc, it's like this. First I tried with my right hand, but nothing. Then my left, still nothing. Then I asked my wife for help. She tried with her right hand, then her left—nothing. She tried with her mouth, first with the teeth in, then the teeth out, still nothing. We even called up Arleen, the lady next door, and she tried too—first with both hands, then an armpit, she even tried squeezin' it between her knees—but still nothing."

The doctor was shocked. "You asked your neighbor?"

The old man replied, "Yep, none of us could get the jar open!"

Dash Crofts, of 1970s music duo Seals & Crofts, dead at 85​

Sadly, I report that Crofts of Seals and Crofts has passed away. The two made some great music that wasn't rock but fit right in to the music scene of the early seventies. Summer Breeze, Diamond Girl, Hummingbird, and so many more tunes are burned into my soul. Thanks you so very much for touching me with your music.

I listened to a lot of their music as well. RIP and thanks for so many great tunes.

Hello,

independent of XML and Compose, there are also other ways to build your UI. I have written some helper classes and put together my UI with a kind of custom DSL. It works almost perfectly. 😊


override fun createLayout(target: FrameLayoutBuilder) {
instance = this
with(target) {
addLinearLayout {
setOrientationVertical()
add(ActivityHeader())
createContent(this)
add(ActivityFooter())
}
}
}


private fun createContent(target: LinearLayoutBuilder) {
with(target) {
addFrameLayout {
setLayoutWeight(1f)
addLinearLayout {
setOrientationVertical()
addFrameLayout {
setLayoutWeight(1f)
addSurfaceView {
setSurface(Playground)
}

addRelativeLayout {
setGravityBottomRight()
addTextView {
setVisibleFalse()
formatHint(this)
addReceiver(Playground.hint) {
setTextId(it)
setVisible(it != R.string.Empty)
}
}
}
}
createInfoLine(this)
}
addFrameLayout {
addReceiver(overlay) {
replace(it)
}
}
}
}
}

fun formatHint(target: TextViewBuilder) {
with(target) {
setTextSizeSP(20)
setTextColorID(R.color.hintText)

I remember getting a chemistry set for Christmas when I was 9. Actual chemicals, that I could combine in experiments. And I survived!

I owned a propane grill that wasn't good in the cold. It was the old style with a H burner of stamped metal that was covered in lava rock. It was a cheap 70s cooker. They have evolved a great deal since then. My father enjoyed grilling and was an early adopter of a natural gas grill. I'm guessing middle sixties or a bit earlier model. It was made of such heavy metal that you could cook on it long after the gas was turned off. It was old school enough that it had adjustable vents for air flow. The best part about that natural gas grill was we no longer had to eat his cooking over charcoals. He soaked his briquettes in gas. I can still see him tossing matches at the ol' charcoaler. Everything we at tasted like a 50's Studebaker
While I'm at it, I'll bore you with another story about that cooker. My parents were working out of town and I came home from college and invited my girlfriend over for the weekend. I cooked out burgers or steaks or something on that grill. The method was to turn it up all the way and let it burn off the left over fats when done cooking. I came home the next weekend and asked my sweetie to once again enjoy the weekend at my parents house. I went out to light the grill and found I had left it on high for a week. Needless to say... the fats had been burned off

I had to give up on the bubble game. It got where every-time I cleared a lever it automatically went to a screen trying to get me to downland the fookin Royal King game and at first all I had to do was refresh the screen. then it got to having to clear the cookies and finally it got to doing it between each play ....


Tried a few other variations of the bubble game, even the candy match one did it.

Intercourse them, been game free for several weeks, now.

Resurrecting (!) this thread to append more information in the wake of the charges resulting from Mr. Perry’s untimely death. Of the five people charged relative to his ketamine usage, three have now pled guilty (including a doctor) and are awaiting sentencing; the other two appear willing to roll the dice on a jury, where they could essentially receive life sentences if convicted.

Doctor charged in Matthew Perry's death pleads guilty to ketamine distribution charge

Mark Chavez, a doctor charged in connection with Matthew Perry's fatal overdose, has officially pleaded guilty to conspiring to distribute ketamine. He faces up to 10 years behind bars.

All of the five people charged have been sentenced; I believe they all entered plea arrangements whereby they admitted their part in Mr. Perry's death. The most severe sentence is also the most recent; the so-called "Ketamine Queen" who provided the fatal doses. She was sentenced to 15 years, and it turned out that her supply had also killed another person in 2019, which was part of why the sentence was that long. Sad all the way around.

I have nothing but respect for my dad. He was a hard working honest guy. Kids just weren't his deal. He was the provider and my mother kept the nest clean and kept us kids in line. Later in life we became business partners and I tried to match his effort and work ethic. I am fairly certain that I received two gifts in my life that he actually wanted me to have and went out of his way to gift them. A pocket knife that I still have and my set of SAE sockets. They mean the world to me. I'm sorry that your sister snagged up the Bell tools. She likely didn't understand the significance of a man to his son relationship.

One of the things I have enjoyed is the "selfies" taken from the outside-mounted cameras.

While Samsung is dumbing down the S Pen, Motorola is improving the stylus in the Moto G Stylus 2026... available April 16th in the U.S. At a third the price of the S26 Ultra, it has faster charging; a brighter screen; and, while it may have a slower processor (which won't matter for 98% of users anyway), it will sport a microSD slot capable of up to 1 TB external storage. How long has it been since a Galaxy flagship had that???

No need to cross the straps, there's plenty of options on all the sales sites for straps...
For one.
You only need a waist belt when you're carrying heavier loads and you need to more evenly distribute the weight lower on your body.
