    I'm a 5M (sometimes even 4.5).  People have freaked out, including one woman who looked disgusted.

    Where do these people get the idea that they can make comments about a part of someone else's body? I've never told another person, "Wow! You have huge feet!" or, "Gee, your hands are enormous!".

    Speaking of Amazon, I've been looking there for slip ons. I take a 5W. I can't find any anywhere.

    I wear a size 5.5 M (6 in athletic shoes). Do people ever make comments about the size of your feet?

    All better. Had a plain salad for dinner and kept it down. 

    Stayed home today just in case! 

    Good for you for staying home and taking care of yourself. Take it easy, diet-wise, for the next few days as your GI system is *still* recuperating 😊.

    I did something similar a couple of weeks ago.  I had to keep ice on it for hours to numb the pain.  Every time I removed the ice, the throbbing would begin again.  Then finally it just stopped by morning, and I had fallen asleep.  It didn't even blister and I didn't need to see a professional.   I hope you are better by now. 

    Yup...thank goodness! Same thing with ice, remove finger and burn/throb started up. I was so glad it calmed down so that I could get a decent sleep. I tossed that potholder out!!

  5. I wanted to hear the chorale group sing a national anthem and was lucky to find this one at the medal ceremony.  Are there any other videos of them singing other national anthems?  This is really special (more so than the recorded instrumental versions).

  6. Need first aid advice please!! I burned my left ring finger on a hot sheet pan taking it out of the oven. There was a hole in one oven mitt. Egads it hurts. I'm keeping a paper towel wrapped ice cube on it which stops the hurt. But as soon as I move my finger away, yow!!! No idea how I'll get to sleep tonight. I tried putting Polysporin on it and that made it worse. I have an appt with the NP at my PCP'S office tomorrow for a sinus infection but how will I be able to sleep tonight???😫

    Watching Ari Melber now. NBC News Chairman confirms Ronna McDaniel is out.

     

    Whoever hired her, gave the ok...needs to be fired. What a colossal embarrassment for NBC.

  8. Ben Agosto would be a perfect commentator. No silly remarks. Pure objective observations with simple explanations that all viewers could understand, no matter how into fs they are.

  9. I sure haven't missed the Russians at all, that's for sure! Seeing Eteri at Worlds was nauseating enough.

    He was referencing skateboard/snowboard terminology - those sports call their rotational jumps by reference to 360 degree multiples instead of just single/double/triple rotation.

    Sheesh. Figure skating is not skateboard or snowboard and JW shouldn't be using those sports' terminologies. As commentators, he and Tara need to be carefully explaining what skaters are accomplishing, what mistakes they're making, so that viewers have a better idea what the scores are reflecting. Not all viewers are familiar with scoring, what GOE's are, etc , and throwing in these other terms is confusing.

    I don’t know of any Yiddish word for these boats 

    Thanks, folks 🤗. I've searched & searched but can't find the boats/company/unique name that made me laugh. I think it said, "Better Than Schlepping" on the side of each boat. Maybe the company folded.

    I think that’s it. But I swear I don’t know. I never even taken the SI ferry lol.

    You should do this on a nice, spring day. Years ago I decided to take the SI Ferry just for the fun of it and to be out on the water. It was great!

    Shlepping sorta means dragging. As in I’m tired of shlepping my bag around. 

    OMG I was right! Lol

    https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/schlep#:~:text=schlepped also shlepped%3B schlepping also,%2C tediously%2C awkwardly%2C or carelessly

    Yes...but is that the name on these little boats? For some reason, I remember the name meant an easier way to get around the city. This was back in 2013. I think the boats were yellow.

  14. Hey...New York City folks! What's the cute Yiddish name of those small boats that run between Manhattan and maybe Brooklyn? Something like Schleppin'? I saw them when we were on a cruise ship waiting to head up to New England several years ago. I'm now watching Aerial America on Smithsonian and it's all about NYS. When it was showing Manhattan, I could see those boats. I always watch this episode whenever I know it's on.

    I've tried to copy & paste the link from YouTube but it's not happening. Look up Worlds 2024 on YT and it's there

    I haven't gotten to watch the men yet - did they not show Adam's LP on broadcast?

    Nope. Last night they had two hours (bless their hearts) to cover Men's LP. The first half hour, they showed some SP's of men's & a couple of the women's LP's. And C/B's FD. To me, this shows their lack of interest in this sport. They could've made it an exciting 4 minutes, a sort of "wait'll ya see this!" moment of unforgettable athletic determination. 

    Just found Adam's LP - link is below.  It looked much better on my phone than on my laptop.

  17. You'd think NBC would've shown Adam's skate-from-hell, 19th to the podium--an athletic achievement just made for TV, right? But no. I guess this was their way of thumbing their noses at those of us who won't pay for Peacock. Unbelievable 🤬. I sure do miss the days when ABC covered skating. Better camera work and better coverage. ABC would've have loved playing Adam's LP over & over...a Wide World of Sports miracle type of coverage. What was that show's motto?

  18. Has any skater ever made such a huge leap in standings as Adam did tonight? 19th to the podium & a Bronze medal. Two amazing guys on ice!
