For the meteorologists I think it was 949 thingybars

Millibars. They serve very small drinks. At least they're a thousand times better than a microbar.

It's a fairly good morning... I sat down in the County Watch Office and fired up the high frequency radio and started to play, and holy smokes! I was picking up Radio New Zealand loud and clear! I verified their radio signal with their web site and sent them a QSL report. Job well done (I'm so proud of me)

Then I fired up the laptop, and my editing tools are back! ProWritingAid isn't acting stupid, and Natural Voices has returned to Microsoft Word. Now all I need is Literotica to catch up with me and the victory parade will commence.

I recently got a 3D printer (FlashForge Adventurer 5M) and have been having a lot of fun with that. Now I know why most 3D printer users answer all questions with "HUH?" Mrs. D thought it was stupid until I made her a set of Grinch cookie cutters. My list of projects has been moved behind her 'priority projects'

It's a small price to pay for peace in the house.

Seems like @Duleigh is getting back some of that good karma he's put out into the world.

@Candy_Kane54 I had to look up what Monkey bread was. It looks AMAZING. Is Cinnabon basically a version of this? When I read the description, that's what came to my mind.

 

[iwatchus]

Monkey bread is MUCH better than anything Cinnabon offers. My SO and I took over making the christmas morning monkey bread from my MIL forty-some years ago. Although my SO owned it when I took over cooking the rest of Christmas brunch a few years later.

A muckle flugga is a large ( muckle ) steep sided island ( flugga ) and yes, there is a little flugga too, on Unst!

According to folklore, Muckle Flugga was formed when two giants, Herman and Saxa, fell in love with the same mermaid. They fought over her by throwing large rocks at each other, one of which became Muckle Flugga. To get rid of them, the mermaid offered to marry whichever one would follow her to the North Pole. They both followed her and drowned, as neither could swim. This tale illustrates why we no longer have giants, ( because - stupid ) but smart mermaids are still very much alive and among us today.

 

[TheRedLantern]

So is it like Cinnabon but better? Or is it a different thing? From the description and the picture, Cinnabon is the closest thing I come to in my head.

I admire the mermaid's commitment to sending a message about unwanted advances. She should post in the "subway harassment scene" AH thread.

My roommate likes to make cheesy monkey bread. Which is basically where you replace the sugary cinnamon stuff with butter and cheese. Sooo much cheese.

Well, mermaids do like to default to drowning stupid horny land lubbers.

Those damn Scotch and Irish giants really liked throwing rocks didn't they? Did they not have parents around?!

I know a couple and I'm trying to get them to raise their expectations. Trouble is, they do have really fishy breath

That's very off putting

Yeah, that's cause they have a see food diet. All ya gotta do though is change what foods they see.

You are in the right vicinity with cinnabon. Just like three times better.

I put that into ChatGPT and got "Integer Overflow".

Christmas cake isn’t the same without Cinnabon

 

[Five_Inch_Heels]

Unless you're ever had a real cinnamon roll.

Drat! That was gonna be the name of my Holiday contest entry.

 

[Five_Inch_Heels]

Ground pork, seasoned to taste.

Pressed into a thin patty to cover the bottom of an 8" skillet.

Once cooked, turn heat off, add grated cheese, then cover and let the cheese melt slowly.

Cut into cracker sized squares and top a Triscut or similar with each square.

 

[Five_Inch_Heels]

Sucks when you can remember the names of two popular TV characters and the shows, but not the name of the person that played both.

 

[NuclearFairy]

I've never been good at remembering names of actors or bands. Sometimes I'm lucky if I can remember the name of the role they played. I'm just not good with names, unless I'm the one that thought them up.

HP update-
A friend of his dropped by to see how he was and answered my request for info.
Hp has been unwell, and currently bed bound.
He says hi to everyone
He’s very tired and quiet, but definitely on the mend!

sometimes if I'm lucky I can remember the name of the day of the week that today is.

Anyone have a bag of mints?
