Cwillie,
Just guessing that the admins are doing their job unbeknownst to us.

They must be monitoring posters whose goal is to cause trouble over religious discussions and politics.

Rudyard Kipling wrote:

If you can keep your head when all about you   
   Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,   
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
   But make allowance for their doubting too;   
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
   Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
   And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;   
   If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;   
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
   And treat those two impostors just the same;   
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
   Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
   And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
   And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
   And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
   To serve your turn long after they are gone,   
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
   Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,   
   Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
   If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
   With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,   
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,   
   And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

End.

Out-take:
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it.
And-which is more-you'll be a caregiver so done.

Fish cooked with heads still on, I cannot manage. Will never forget when in college, the dining room one day had trout with the heads still on. Nobody had much of anything that day. The fish heads kinda grossed everyone out!

Finally, after 2.5 years in this rural area, found someone to cut my hair. It has always been long, still is. I am just very picky about someone trying something new. Today, as a walk in, cut six inches from my hair that was within a few inches of my waist, and I am 5'10" tall! This woman did a great job! Feeling almost human again, and much lighter! She could even tell where to part my hair, it will not part in the middle and that is where most hair stylists usually try to part it for a cut. Then I am very unhappy if it is done that way. One side will end up being an inch and a half longer than the other side. So happy with the way it turned out!

Sci-fi is great!

I told Alexa to beam me up just to see my mom’s face when she heard the Star Trek theme. Hahaha

Lord of the Rings is fantastic! Beautifully written and the movie was beautifully filmed. You have excellent taste.

If I could actually get away I’d love to go to a sci-fi and comic book convention. I gave up on it because mother in law I’m caregiver to thinks my interests are “dumb” and women aren’t supposed to like sci-fi or comics. I’m supposed to be another boring Jerry Springer watching bland gossiping basic brat.

Anyway beam me up, Scotty—too many illogical people on this planet!

NHWM - no your life is not boring because you want to sleep. Sleep is essential. I can't function when I don't have enough and must take a nap. Lack of sleep will lead to a host of health problems, physical and mental.

Welcome Bellator!
You will find quite a few threads are meant for stress relief, to just lighten up a bit when we just can't make it to the ocean.

I would love to just walk on the beach right now.
