Jel April 25, 2019 Share April 25, 2019 ShawnaLanne, last year we went to New York and before we left I posted in this thread asking where to eat and what to do (and also where to see HWs) and helpful, kind posters gave a bunch of suggestions. It starts on about page 18 of this thread (and somewhere in there is Kung Fu Bunny's awesome story about meeting Ramona!) and goes on, messages interspersed, for a few pages. There were lots of helpful NY tourist suggestions, plus some HW spotting tips that you just can't find on Trip Advisor! I hope you have a wonderful time! (How could you not tho!) If you are interested in the 8 hour bus tour we took, let me know and I'll look up the name (that was the guide who was a native New Yorker, loved his city and who spoke like this: Awww youze guys, get outtta here, etc. It was awesome!) 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/33/#findComment-5237022

MrsWitter April 27, 2019 Share April 27, 2019 @HunterHunted I was just about to mention allergy shots then I saw you’re on them already. How long have you been on them? Since you’re going weekly, are you still building to maintenance? I’ve been on them for a number of years and they’ve been a total lifesaver for me, but it can take awhile. My allergist did “rapids,” where you have a bunch of shots in one day to get to maintenance more quickly, but it still took a good nine months before I stopped taking a ton of allergy meds. I hope you start feeling better soon. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/33/#findComment-5242635

Thanks once again! I’m sorry- hives totally suck. I still get them very occasionally, but not not like I used to. I have mostly “indoor” allergies- animals, dust, etc, but my allergies intensified when I moved from a high elevation area back to sea level (no dust mites above certain elevations, I learned). Some allergy offices seem very opposed to rapids and some do them regularly. I imagine it can partially depend on what you’re allergic to and the severity of symptoms. My office called them rapids, but a lot of medical professionals also refer to it as “rush immunotherapy” if you’re googling. I still have skin/contact allergies (immunotherapy doesn’t work for them), but my other allergy symptoms are greatly reduced. Again, sorry you’re not feeling well and I hope you get some relief soon. I know how horrible it can feel to have chronic inflammation from allergies (or other illnesses).

Gem 10 April 30, 2019 Share April 30, 2019 @walnutqueen .. What the heck! Sunday’s episode of GOT. I couldn’t see anything .. it was so dark. I asked my Grandson was that on purpose, and who died as I couldn’t make out the person as it was so dark. Hard on the ole eyes, but the attack scene was amazing. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/33/#findComment-5250730

Yes, it was too dark to see much (although some posters with a better TV and the skills to adjust settings perfectly claim they were able to see more than most of us). One trick is to watch after dark with all the lights out - I'm going to try this on my rewatch. But this is probably the first time ever that I wasn't complaining about night scenes - I was so damned anxious that I didn't WANT to see all the gore and death. If it weren't for my cat saving me, I might've stroked out ; as it was, my limbs were actually weak from the prolonged adrenaline during this episode. That said, I was dreading the wholesale slaughter of too many of my favorite characters, so I was pleasantly surprised not to lose more of them. This being GoT, I don't expect the trend to last for the final episodes ... :~( 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/33/#findComment-5251186
walnutqueen May 1, 2019 Share May 1, 2019 OK, so I know a little suntheen about some birds. And I can totally relate to Bethenny's reaction to them at that artist's place. When I was doing wild bird rescue & rehab, my mentor also had 22 rescued birds in her house - macaws, cockatoos, african greys, eclectus, various greens, lorikeets, conures, etc., and I spent many happy hours bonding with them. The house was so loud that the husband often wore hearing protection earmuffs while preparing their nighttime meals. Many of them screamed in delight whenever I showed up, and I had a special schtick for each and every one of them, from soft whispery crooning to loud and raucous singing, based on what they liked and responded to. Their human caretakers were more than happy to have me rile them up and give them the love and attention they craved and responded to. Also, some of them were incorrigible flirts, and a few even considered me suitable mating material. Oliver the little green lori flew to me whenever he was let out of his cage, and constantly nuzzled and fussed over me (OK, he also perched on my head and dry humped me, but not in a creepy way). My special boyfriend was a brilliant African Grey named Willow, who had an uncanny Radar Love connection with me. My mentor told me he's start sing-songing my name before my vehicle even turned down their street, and I was the only person he didn't try to bite (well, except gentle love bites). He behaved like a shameless fool around me, finding endless clever ways to attract my attention and entice me to his cage. When he overheard me telling my mentor how my beloved soulmate kitty would gently pat my face with his paw, Willow promptly started gently caressing my face with his talons. When he started trying to feed me from his own mouth, my mentor told me it was mating behavior, and that we were practically engaged. Who knew? When wildfires threatened their home and my mentor was away in Costa Rica, they all evacuated to my house, and the birds weren't in the least bit traumatized to be in unfamiliar surroundings - they were excited to have a field trip to Casa de Deplorable, and were on their best behavior. They already knew my purse kitten Babalu, who went with me everywhere back then, and he played with them all day and slept on their carriers when we put them to bed at night. Sadly, my mentor disengaged from wild bird rescue after a serious health crisis, and then disengaged from the world (and me) after suddenly losing her beloved husband. So now I have to get my bird fix at Petsmart and BirdWorld. An injury also sidelined my wild bird rehab, although occasionally random people who remember me will still call me to rescue an injured or orphaned wild bird. And I still respond; to rescue, triage, and transport the bird to the rescue organization's headquarters. Dang - I just typed the longest post in my PTV history. My poor arms are probably as tired and aching as your poor eyes are if you bothered reading this. Sorry 'bout that - I do get carried away when it comes to the critters ... 14 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/33/#findComment-5253140

People like you are what makes the world go 'round, for me anyway. I admire your dedication to those creatures less able. I especially admire your affinity for birds, which I have to admit, I am only willing to feed and admire from a distance. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/33/#findComment-5253157
