Quote from: WOTR on September 04, 2022, 04:33:18 AMWow, time flies. I almost forgot about that whole episode of attempting (and failing) to catch Covid. I think that this site was down by the time I finally did (accidentally) catch it. If memory serves.
I had a severe fever of something like 107 and no energy. I slept almost straight for 36 before rebounding to 100% health.

I really did want to catch it to be sure to not bring it to my mother or any of the older / less healthy people in my life. As it stood, I fortunately did not spread it to anybody.

*Now that the "experts" finally admit that it is here to stay and everybody (vaccinated or not) will catch it, I feel like I was just ahead of the curve by wanting to just get it over with.  ;)

Didn't you catch it when you went to a relative's house who was sick with it and played naked twister with him for a few hours...or maybe it was clothed checkers? A long time ago I once was so sick with the flu or something that dying didn't seem like such a bad thing but I don't think my temperature was even close to 107. I can't imagine how that must have felt. I'm glad you're back to one 100%. Some people who had a mild case complain of long-covid. Dave Navarro, for example, says he's been sick for six months so far:

https://www.guitarworld.com/news/dave-navarro-long-covid

One of my neighbors died from it. I don't know if he was vaccinated or not.

I sometimes wonder if covid was around at least a year before we ever heard about it and only hit the news after it got too out of control to keep it a secret.

Quote from: Rix Gins on September 02, 2022, 06:50:15 PMLast post: November 18, 2013.  Perhaps he got his wish?

I can see why he was trying to find a way out of this timeline.

Apparently he was caught with 9000 child porn images.

Hopefully he'll never get out of jail or hopped into a timeline with worse punishments than we have in this one.

Quote from: albrecht on August 31, 2022, 04:19:36 PMThough he was, possibly, wrong on a lot of issues he was GREAT on radio. He knew how to draw out a guest or caller. One quote I mention, because telling genius: "the Dental----Mafia?" That hooked you instantly by the pre-NPR uptalk but the pause, as is himself pondering. Then leaves the listener 'wtf' there is a dental mafia? And was a random bit during some unrelated show subject. That the genius let the show flow.

I listened to the show. It was really good; Art was in the zone! Even taking care with upbeat bumper music and cleverly dropping Ross Mitchell in only after the pianist zips up and down the keys in I'm So Excited, for example. One caller said he might have been abducted by aliens but didn't want to talk about it. haha. There did seem to be a commercial slid in there though. The caller was selling really expensive masturbation machines. Like $2300-$3500 in today's money expensive. Art gave him an 8 out of 10 on the weirdness scale. Is a man selling sex toys that weird? I bet it was one of Art's HAM buddies.



It looks...sturdy. Apparently, that's the newer model. According to the caller it was the size of a large briefcase back then. It looks like it should have a chute where you shovel the coal in to power it.

I don't recall the "dental...Mafia?" part but I know what you mean. I'll be on the lookout for it.

Quote from: albrecht on August 31, 2022, 11:51:53 AMThe other morning early they had some guy on NPR talking ants. He was strangely enthusiastic about them. But, at the same time, admitted necessity to kill them sometimes. He had a theory, which I've heard before, about 'allowing' one nest and killing others because eliminating all hives will result in new invasions. Sorta like allowing colonias, I guess.

But reminded me and I thought I wonder if this guy was, or knew, the 'ant guy' from Art Bell strange people open-lines who decided to 'follow an ant' 'just because he wondered 'what they do all day.' Ultimately I seem to recall that the ant bested him and went down a storm drain and he couldn't follow. Weak but good, but strange, effort.

I remember that show. It also had a someone call in who ate rocks from his yard. Art specifying the caller's preference for "yard rocks" made me laugh.

I'm inspired to listen to it again. Maybe it's the October 21, 1997 Weird Person Line show.

In this video Falkie says he is sad because the stray he feeds outside is dead. I think the cat, Fuzzy, is alive and living the good life in the neighbor's apartment. His neighbor told him he gave Fuzzy antibiotics so Falkie yelled at him, of course. He just stood there and stared. I think the neighbor was stunned speechless for being yelled at instead of appreciated. Falkie explains to us that the cat has a respiratory illness and he had already ordered antibiotics and it would arrive sometime in the distant foggy future. Coincidentally last week I ordered a prescription medication for my cat on Tuesday from Chewy.com and it arrived on Thursday. Also, he would have had to bring the cat in to a vet in order to get a prescription so that's probably bullshit.

Purely for educational purposes.

That makes more sense than the Roger Waters video that you had there first. I was really trying to find the connection between performing seals and a Ukrainian kill list. I almost had it though.

haha Thanks for putting in the effort. Maybe I should have went with 'balancing stuff on my nose'. All I know about performing seals is from watching cartoons of the late 70's and 80's, so not much.

Quote from: K_Dubb on August 27, 2022, 09:43:21 AMNot gross just VERY SCARY has me questioning everything!  I never knew a girl would notice me except for my sarcastic wit and fashion sense, a whole new world of potential has opened.  Suddenly I want to get married let myself go get fat grow a beard and go to Home Depot just for fun and come home and sit and holler at the teevee when they show me ads featuring interracial couples

Just consider it an observation, not a compliment. Don't worry, your cheese points are safe.

Quote from: albrecht on August 26, 2022, 12:29:47 PMKing Oscar is the normal. Wild Planet has good mackerel and sardines also. Recently got some "Sea Tales" from Cornwall where they call them "pilchards" that was tasty. I note Portugese produced!* I also received a can of kippers from Bar Harbor but haven't opened yet. On the high end you get all the 'wild caught' and 'sustainable' crap so more $$. Slumming I like the generic Hill Country Fare (HEB grocery brand) sardines, especially the ones in Louisiana Hot Sauce. I note that the cheaper the sardine, herring, mackerel, tuna the more bones or skin. Oddly, this might be a good thing nutrition wise!

Can't get here but the best ever is the 'new herring' or virgin herring (Hollandse Nieuwe or Mattjes) in the Netherlands. So F-ing good! They have festivals about it and everyone looks like seals wolfing them down. Supposedly why the Dutch (and extension much of the Nordic-types) tall because fish whereas rest of Europe were fed by grain.

*as mentioned by a poster the Portuguese have the best non-canned herring. They grill them up with a bit of oil and the best ever! (Besides the more raw type in Holland.)

I'm going to try them all.

Quote from: K_Dubb on August 26, 2022, 12:05:35 PMHehe I always knew you were a cool chick.  Congratulations on throwing off the shackles of the patriarchy, did it feel mildly transgressive?  King Oscar is what we always had; Beach Cliff is trash but I am trashy and like the mustard one.

I tried the hot sauce one and was thinking it would be better in a recipe or on a cracker but maybe it would ruin anything to which it was added. I still have one packed in mustard. Maybe I'll mix a whiskey sour and snack on that while complaining about the kids today what with their colored hair and tattoos and all. I'll let you know how it goes.

By the way, lugging those 45lb weights around is working for you. Are people asking you to open jars for them yet?

I'm an honorary old man now. Inspired by the many sardine threads and because I can't decide on which vitamin e supplement to use, I bought some. King Oscar was good. Beach Cliff was difficult to finish. One day if I'm ever rolling in Falkie kind of money (not literally) I'll try Nuri brand. It's seven dollars a can!

Quote from: K_Dubb on August 21, 2022, 10:14:52 AMNo, I am pro-choice.  I don't have to like people's choices to support their right to exercise them.  Roe was a bad decision but Alito's opinion overturning it was worse.

Oh, I'm sorry. I must have misread a post. I feel better now.

He's not that liberal. He supports the oppression of women. If he wasn't gay he'd probably be against that, too.
