A public busy street means the potential for eyewitnesses. Also security cameras are more prevalent every year.

Curse my provincial dietary upbringing!

Welcome to DragonMount, Anae.

After my father's wedding, the family went to the Briarwood Inn in Golden, Colorado. We had a small room to ourselves, and it was the most luxurious dining experience I had ever had in my twenty-five years. I loved how in between each course they cleared the table and reset it fresh.

I was torn on what to order from the menu. On the one hand, I wanted a ribeye steak, knowing it would be delicious, but I had eated ribeyes before. On the other hand, I wanted to try the Ruby Trout. I knew it would be well prepared, so that anyone who enjoyed trout would say it was delicious. But I had never tried trout, and I was worried that I wouldn't enjoy it no matter how well it was prepared.

I plunged forward and ordered the trout. And it was delicious.

Holy Smokes, when I visited Stonehenge...let's see....<ulp>30-something years ago, we weren't allowed to set foot within 50 yards of the monoliths.

Someday I'd like to see Manhattenhenge, although I expect on the key days it's rather crowded.

Farewell, Adella.We hardly knew ye.

True. Lotsa nicknames have been tossed around, but nothing officially notarized and embroidered.

Interesting. I know the quote, but from a character that doesn't fit the description at all. Which makes me wonder if the quoter I know stole it from someone else.

I agree, Taltos. Most of the time, I stick to the four foods.

Not four food groups. Four foods.

 

Much better!  *claps hands in approval*

Now you're talkin'. What is they say about a sharp-dressed man?

<Sigh> So much beauty, and me cursed with stereoscopic vision.

I'm stumped on that one. Not being able to Google it is frustrating.

I'm ready to take a stab (heh heh) at it.

I wasn't bothered by it. It's akin to real life. People have disappeared without a trace all the time.

I'm intrigued.

Hello. I like your avatar. I've only been around for a few months, but welcome back.

My father has passed away, but my wife has said she'll indulge me a bit. We'll probably see Wonder Woman and get some ice cream somewhere.

Hopefully I'll hear from my son on Sunday, but he's a busy guy.

Welcome, WellKristOff. Have fun at the forums.

I doubt I'll ever get a cat as I'm allergic to them. I spent a weekend at a friend's home last month, and they have a cat, and my eyes itched the whole time. it was a struggle to not rub my eyes into jelly.

But I would love to build some of the catwalks and shelves as I've seen on the show Catification.

Yeah, I suppose I shouldn't talk about cats, having never had one.

But I've seen how some dogs pine and stress when their owners are gone, which seems like borderline cruelty. I don't see how apartment dwellers can have large dogs that have no room to run around and stretch their legs. My impression was that cats are less likely to need people around all the time.

But what do I know?

I grew up with dogs, but my wife is allergic to them. I'm allergic to cats, and my wife doesn't like them, so we have no pets.

A pair of cats would be my choice, because they're so independent. I also love how creative people build high perches and walkways for their cats.

As long as we're dreaming, I'd love to have a big cat for a companion, like a panther or a jaguar. Something that can take care of itself, but when I whistle it would spring out of a tree and kill the attackers who were about to murder me.

Welcome, Baldrick. Feel free to look around. Don't hesitate to ask questions.
