Sadly true.... but it happens, not just in organized groups, but also
by some indivduals.... my friend Deb (my retired massage therapist that now is in BC) was one of those, and by choice...
Well, there are those of us for whom
profit was not the main motivator.
Yup... :) Present company being among them... :)
I'd rather there were more of us. Too much "apres
vous mon cher Gaston," though, and nothing gets
done. There is a happy medium, but we're not there
yet, I'm pretty sure.
One doesn't ask you to provide certainties,
as there aren't any of those.
I answered that having just had a bunch of unexpecteds happen... Did you
have a particular reason for asking...?
Health issues of various sorts (not mental, so
down, boys) and some pretty urgent potential
obligations regarding my other people. 4X, I
spent part of today wheeling Lilli around.
She had never been in a wheelchair before.
Ugh - I wonder if a different profession
might have been a good idea (sort of like
certain doctors we've been talking about).
Possibly.
The thing is if something is a bad match,
it should be fixed as soon as possible,
for everyone's benefit. There may be a
small sad minority who would fit in badly
no matter where they were, but that's what
welfare is for.
It was doing the correction by way of public
humiliation didn't suit me well. But we lost a
viola player to injury, so she stepped in, so I
guess I should be thankful for that.
Toss-up, sometimes.... my one sister was like that, putting down just
about everyone, her husband, our then pastor, anyone in sight sometimes,
and thought it witty... not sure how much she's mellowed, I don't have
that much contact with her any more (she's the one in UK)....
Brexit - serves her right.
Yes. The question was whether the sticky mess
that was intended to be peanut brittle had
somehow miraculously dried out and become the
proper thing, and the answer is: yes.
So even more tasty later... :)
About the same in tastiness, just more normal.
Oh, ok... :)
I rather like either one being used as a vegetable rather than a seasoning... ;) One of the dishes at Coco Garden uses sliced ginger as
a vegetable, the ginger and scallions [fish, pork, whatever]... very nicely done, too... :)
If you can get young enough ginger so it
isn't all woody and terrible, go for it.
This was fine, not at all woody... :) Very tasty.... :)
I tend to buy woodier ginger for flavoring
(big chunks) or young, preferably almost green,
for mixing in (shavings or slivers).
It's hard to recognize sometimes that
someone else's strokes might (unlikely, but
possible) be as legitimate as one's own.
It can take some wrapping one's brain around, true... ;)
I am often tempted to attribute others'
different strokes to strokes.
At times, yeah... ;)
A lot of wwtt in this world. Sometimes
I cause it. Not that frequently, I hope.
... How do musicians commit suicide? By jumping off a clef!
They use Classical Gas.
Brass players never die, they just blow away.
