I was in heaven. It's lucky I don't live there though because I'd never make it into work, lol. lol the commuters complain loudly when movies shut down the roads or viaducts throughout the city....deadpool closed down one of the major commuter roads into the city for several days.....great for people watching for ryan reynolds et al but horrid otherwise.. they were shooting a movie or something here in nanaimo not too long ago and people weren't happy with the roadways being closed to traffic....then of course there was major roadwork being done didn't help either...especially when the ferry came in... 11 Link to comment

Thanksgiving Day I spent with him bonding. Since I posted about it I haven't been speaking to or seeing my mother (because it wasn't safe for me emotionally or physically) but she'd been harassing me via phone and on my job. Thanksgiving evening her dog died suddenly so now I'm back to speaking to her / helping her 😥 It's a mess. I'm sorry, Petunia. The death of a pet can bring out so much angst and insecurity in people. Doing what is needed for your mother is very difficult, and you are to be commended for your efforts. Take care that you don't overtax yourself. Speaking of George; How is he getting along at daycare? Quote @OhioSongbird thanksgiving leftovers are the best kind of leftovers! I am a sucker for stuffing! It's hard to find or make a good vegan one. 👍🏼😜potatoes and dip and veggies. Ugh I can eat them everyday. Gaaa! J'adore Thanksgiving carbohydrates! I have a Vegan-friendly dressing recipe that can be zhuzhed for any diet preference: Serves: 6 - 8 1 large loaf whole-grain bread* (cubed & set out to dry overnight or dried in the oven -- 1 large loaf yields about 9 cups loosely packed cubes) 3 Tbsp olive oil, butter or vegan butter (I used a mix of both) 1/2 cup diced white onions 3/4 cup diced mushrooms of your choice 3/4 cup diced celery Salt & pepper to taste 3 - 3 1/2 cups vegetable broth, warm (homemade or store-bought)* 1 beaten egg or 1 batch flax egg (1 Tbsp flaxseed meal + 2-1/2 Tbsp water or as recommended on label) 3/4 tsp each dried sage, dried and crushed rosemary leaves and ground savory* Instructions: -- The night before, cube your bread and set it in a large bowl to dry out - you want it to be the texture of day old bread - noticeably dry but not rock hard. -- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and oil 9x13 pan. -- Sauté onion, celery and mushrooms in the olive oil or vegan butter, and season with a bit of salt and pepper. Cook until fragrant and translucent - about 5 minutes. Stir in sage and rosemary and savory, Set aside. -- To the bowl of bread, add sautéed vegetables, beaten eggs, pour in half of the broth and mix. The key is to make sure it is about the consistency of a dry meatloaf mixture. If it’s too dry, add more broth and mix again. If too wet, add more bread. -- Transfer to the prepared pan and cover with foil. Bake for 45 minutes. Then remove the top layer of foil so the top can brown. Increase heat to 400 degrees F (204 C) and bake for another 10-15 minutes or until the top is well browned and crisp. -- Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Leftovers reheat well in the microwave or oven, though best when fresh. Notes: * You can substitute 2 baguettes, a loaf of sourdough per 1 large loaf whole-grain bread or a combination of breads * You can substitute 1 1/4 tsp fresh sage and rosemary each, chopped per 3/4 tsp dried * Homemade or store-bought chicken broth can be used, but be careful of how much salt you add to the dressing * If you're interested, 3/4 cup toasted chopped pecans, toasted pine nuts, prepared chestnuts, toasted butternuts (not the squash), chopped dried cranberries, dried apricots, chopped apple are delicious add-ins. Add to the sautéed vegetables, stir, and bump up your herbs, salt and pepper by scant 1/2 tsp, set aside and follow the rest of the recipe. 8 Link to comment

It's annoying and all too common. Aunt Trinket was in charge of a church rummage sale Saturday (bought boxes of vintage Christmas decorations, ruby Anchor Hocking punch bowl set, and 1950s costume jewelry), and went to an estate sale (canoe paddle, dish towels, tooled saddlebag, porcelain crescent plates, yellowware mixing bowl) on the way to the hardware store, but that was the extent of my shopping over the weekend. 10 Link to comment

Australia has very stringent regulations on bio-manipulation in food production, so I think it's doubtful. Holstein-Friesian crosses are pretty large on their own, but if you keep mating two of the largest animals available, you could end up with a beast the size of Knickers. It's the same mentality that you see in animal barns at state fairs with contests for the largest hog, tallest draft horse, biggest chicken … because we can. ‘SpongeBob’ creator Stephen Hillenburg dies at 57 Stephen Hillenburg, who used his dual loves of drawing and marine biology to spawn the absurd undersea world of “SpongeBob SquarePants,” has died, Nickelodeon announced Tuesday. Hillenburg died Monday of Lou Gehrig’s disease, also known as ALS, the cable network said in a statement. He was 57. He had announced he had the disease in March 2017. His death comes just weeks after the passing of another cartoon hero in Marvel creator Stan Lee. Hillenburg conceived, wrote, produced and directed the animated series that began in 1999 and bloomed into hundreds of episodes, movies and a Broadway show. The eternally, obliviously jolly SpongeBob and his yell-along theme song that opened “Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?!” quickly appealed to college kids and parents as much as it did kids. “The essence of the show is that SpongeBob is an innocent in a world of jaded characters,” Hillenburg told The Associated Press in 2001. “The rest is absurd packaging.” Its vast cast of oceanic creatures included SpongeBob’s starfish sidekick Patrick, his tightwad boss Mr. Krabs, and his always-exasperated neighbor Squidward Tentacles. Hillenburg’s undersea world of Bikini Bottom was a realm like no other, real or fictional. SpongeBob can play his nose like a flute and could not possibly be happier to work his fast-seafood job of flipping Krabby Patties. But he has his troubles, too. He constantly fails his boat-driving test, forcing his frightened blowfish teacher to inflate. In one episode he suffers a broken butt and is afraid to leave his pineapple home for days. “I don’t want to face my fears,” SpongeBob, voiced by Tom Kenny, says in another episode. “I’m afraid of them!” Kenny presented Hillenburg with a special honor at the Daytime Emmy Awards in April, and said in his speech that Hillenburg himself is the embodiment of his main character. “SpongeBob’s vocal cords might be mine,” Kenny said. “But SpongeBob’s playful spirit of gentle anarchy, his humor and the joy he takes in his vibrant, colorful, music-filled world come directly, directly, 100 percent from my good buddy, Mr. Stephen Hillenburg.” Born at his father’s army post in Lawton, Oklahoma, Hillenburg graduated from Humboldt State University in California in 1984 with a degree in natural resource planning with a marine emphasis, and went on to teach marine biology at the Orange County Marine Institute. While there he drew a comic, “The Intertidal Zone,” that he used as a teaching tool. It featured anthropomorphic ocean creatures that were precursors to the characters on “SpongeBob.” Hillenburg shifted to drawing and earned a master of fine arts degree in animation from the California Institute of the Arts in 1992. He worked on the Nickelodeon show “Rocko’s Modern Life,” from 1993 to 1996 before he began to build SpongeBob’s universe, which showed off his knowledge of marine life and willingness to throw all the details out the window. “We know that fish don’t walk,” he told the AP in 2001. “And if you know much about sponges, you know that living sponges aren’t square.” The show was an immediate hit that has lost no momentum in the nearly 20 years since its creation and helped define the culture of Nickelodeon. “He was a beloved friend and long-time creative partner to everyone at Nickelodeon,” the network’s statement said. “His utterly original characters and the world of Bikini Bottom will long stand as a reminder of the value of optimism, friendship and the limitless power of imagination.” Its nearly 250 episodes have won four Emmy Awards and led to an endless line of merchandise to rival any other pop cultural phenomenon of the 2000s. “When you set out to do a show about a sponge, you can’t anticipate this kind of craze,” Hillenburg told the AP in 2002. In 2004, the show shifted to the big screen with “The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie” and a 2015 sequel, “The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water.” David Bowie, Johnny Depp and Scarlett Johansson are among the dozens of major stars who provided guest voices to the show or movies. Intensely involved in every aspect of the show initially, Hillenburg after the 2004 film stepped back into an executive producer role on the show, where he remained for the rest of his life. A musical stage adaptation debuted on Broadway in 2017, with music from such stars as Steven Tyler, Sara Bareilles and John Legend. It earned 12 Tony Award nominations, including one for best performance by a leading actor for Ethan Slater. “I am heartbroken to hear of the passing of Stephen Hillenburg,” Slater said in an email Tuesday. “Through working on ‘SpongeBob,’ I got to know him not only as a creative genius, but as a truly generous and kind person. He warmly embraced us on Broadway as the newest members of his wonderful ‘SpongeBob’ family, and made it so clear from the get-go why he is so beloved: genuine kindness.” Hillenburg is survived by his wife of 20 years Karen Hillenburg, son Clay, mother Nancy Hillenburg, and a brother, Brian Kelly Hillenburg. Godspeed dear friend. Merry Machine Age and a Happy Ray Gun to you! 6 Link to comment

I don't know if they still do this, but the 70s channel on Sirius XM used to replay that Casey Kasem "America's Top 40" show (how I remember as a kid looking forward to listening to it on my AM radio), and it seems that The Carpenters were kind of a 70s staple. Some of that 70s music though? I'd love to know what they were smoking. When I heard "Muskrat Love", one week, all I could wonder is how this song ever made top anything.
