I didn't get what the clue was going for until Ken said "Who would be shrieking in mid-air?" and couldn't get to the names fast enough. If I was watching a recording, I would have paused it to give myself an extra 30 seconds, but I still might've only gotten to Daedalus' son. Given that the clue did not say "the name of": Ovid says he "toppled, beating wild with naked arms the unsustaining air... shrieking for succour from his sire" would "Daedalus' son" have been accepted? I imagine it might be in the regular portion of the game, but FJ seems to be a bit stricter sometimes. Yesterday I could only say: That place in the south where they race horses.

I had actually started a PM to you but then decided to post here first in case you preferred sharing more broadly — figuring you'd suggest PMing if that was better.😉 So. Yes, please.😊 I'm going to look into further tweaking the settings on my machine too, probably following this guy's methods: https://youtu.be/qKN4pW3qYEs My son-in-law has an SD card I can put in the machine to gather the more detailed data than is reflected in the feedback you get from the machine which does not reflect what I'm experiencing, like when it says I had "no mask leaks." -
Daedalus is the Dad.

LOL, that's mostly why I watch.… …maybe Jubal's identical cousin from NYPD, Cyrus Lupo, can fill in, LOL. Doesn't CBS/Paramount+ realize the novelty of it would boost ratings and maybe get an Emmy nom or 2, not to mention giving us all some much-needed comic relief? •.¸¸.•*´¨`* •.¸꧁༒❊༒꧂¸.•´¨`*•.¸¸.•. Yeah, Liam Neeson's son is 29:

And it makes more sense to me that any cost savings to the production of Ghosts by not shoehorning-in everyone into each and every episode is secondary to the effect on the quality of storytelling by having a strict requirement to include 10 or more regulars in each 20-minute episode. (Note that the FBIs are 40 minutes.) Novels with 10 or more characters do not include all of them in every chapter.

What is the name of the fb group? I see several. BTW, Did I mention that I've stopped using water? The first time was by accident and I slept better. I checked with the doctor and she said it was only "for comfort." WTH? I wish I'd known that when I started in the most humid part of the summer. -
Exactly. It's like they cut out the best part.

Jimmy Kimmel Live - General Discussion
shapeshifter replied to David T. Cole's topic in Jimmy Kimmel Live
My personal laugh-o-meter is always dialed down to near zero, so these days it's closer to zero on the Kelvin scale, but for some reason this My Pillow Guy bit amused me: This video should start at the beginning of the my pillow segment, at about the 10:30 mark. -
And many were never finished. My art history knowledge is very dated and only covers the main points of what was known decades ago, so this production was fresh for me. I was heartbroken anew to think of the metal intended for the statues being used to make weapons of war, but I also wonder if it would have worked, given the enormous size of the sculpture.

I was impressed with the actor who played Freddy, especially the sense of evil he emanated at the end when it was revealed that he not only beat the victim to death, but he had manipulated the FBI. So I looked him up on IMDb and saw his name is Micheál Neeson, and, yes, his father is Liam Neeson. Also, his mother is Natasha Richardson, so he's descended from Redgraves.

Late Night With Seth Meyers - General Discussion

Kristin Chenoweth's dress was…distracting? But she and Seth were great together. They should co-host an award show. -
I complained about this too, and it's still bugging me. Was it originally "6 steps" and someone said "that sounds too piddly; make it 16"?? Was it originally 8 or 10 steps, and they wanted an alliteration? Was it a loft with no rooms? Then say so. My 2 grandbabies are now 2¾ years old and ¾ year old, so I remember walking them as infants in the nursery. Even around the room it wasn't 16 steps to make a loop.

The series of games for 2nd Chancers to qualify for the ToC mystified me last year, but at least now I grok the process, if not the nomenclature.

Some teachers shouldn't be. Do you still have it? When my sister and her husband helped my parents sort through stuff before they moved from our childhood home, they found a drawing of a flying machine I had done at 13, that my engineer BIL said could probably have worked. The drawing disappeared, as did many of my paintings; 6 sketchbooks were destroyed in a flood in my parents' basement. I used to despair about how few of Leonardo's artworks remain, but this documentary makes it part of the mystique. And I've got way too many of mine to pass on — especially since I'm no Leonardo. Here's the PBS page for the documentary: pbs.org/kenburns/leonardo-da-vinci

Watching now. When I was a child I wanted to be Leonardo Da Vinci when I grew up. I am really loving this.
