    It IS Lyle Waggoner (known from The Carol Burnett Show)! In the opening credits, he was listed as &quot;Waggner.&quot; #Monsterdon #JourneyToTheCenterOfTime

    Bronze Age Greece had a robust trading economy. Sea routes were (obviously) favored over land routes. https://www.worldhistory.org/article/115/trade-in-ancient-greece/ Interesting stuff, this. We seldom think about ancient economies, rather viewing things through our modern lens. Often, we&#39;re mistaken. #Odyssey #HomericGreece #BronzeAgeTrade

    Question for sari-wearers: How do you clean them? I have three, all polyester, two very sheer like chiffon, one heavier like silk. All have metallic thread embroidery, and one is beaded. None have care information (no surprise there). They&#39;ve been in storage for a few years, along with some stretch velvet cholis. I haven&#39;t worn them in . . . I don&#39;t know, maybe twelve years? I was in the SCA at the time, and they were super comfortable for scorching summertime events. I&#39;m cons...

    Did yard work this morning: mowed, trimmed, clipped, and hauled away. Went back out a bit ago to gather up branches spouse trimmed along the road and driveway and haul them out too. Picked another handful of black raspberries to add to what I already had, in order to make a sugar-free raspberry sorbet. Almost time for that to go into the ice cream maker. A simple five-spice salmon for dinner, a vegetable side (likely green beans), and sorbet for after. Perhaps a bit of mulberry liqueur while...

    Just saying. Going to the grocery store and Farm &amp; Fleet. Betcha folks stay outta my way. Except the ones who agree. They usually give me a smile, a nod, or a thumbs up. #Resist #GodAintPettyButIAm

    One for the &amp;quot;careful writers&amp;quot; (to steal from Theodore Bernstein): COMPOSE and COMPRISE are not interchangeable in the formal register. Some writers maintain the distinction regardless of the formality they&amp;#39;re using. I tend to let it go when I see one used incorrectly in dialogue; when I see it in narrative, I leave a comment. It&amp;#39;s up to the client whether to change the word. &amp;quot;Compose&amp;quot; means &amp;quot;to make up, to be an ingredient/portion i...

    @kimlockhartga@beige.party @TheEddieShow@beige.party The NWS needs to pay attention to these guys!

    @kimlockhartga@beige.party @TheEddieShow@beige.party I highly recommend Max Velocity on YT. He and his team are ahead of any of our local meteorologists when it comes to timely information. I&#39;ve seen several comments on his channel thanking him for saving lives. Y&#39;all be safe in those storms.

    UPDATE: Partial siding on west wall! It&amp;#39;s proven a bit more tricky than anticipated, I think, but better them than us. The main dude will be back tomorrow morning bright and early to keep on truckin&amp;#39;. We agree that he should tackle the south wall next, as it&amp;#39;s more difficult than the north (that one has no openings to deal with as we&amp;#39;re just &amp;quot;boarding it up&amp;quot; as it were) what with the window and door. So glad to be getting this done! #HomeImpr...

    Mmmmmm Chicken fajitas for dinner. Season chicken. Cook in skillet. Remove. Do NOT wipe skillet. Add sliced peppers and onion. Sauté, adding seasoning as needed (probably not a lot). Put chicken back in, stir. Cook a few more minutes so there&amp;#39;s no pink left. FEAST #HomeCooking

    All these &amp;quot;quick polls&amp;quot; from news apps feel like info gathering to me, and not for good reasons. Fuck off. I&amp;#39;m not telling you whether I&amp;#39;ve participated in any protests of any kind whatsoever. I&amp;#39;m already on lists somewhere, I&amp;#39;m sure. #DoNotComplyEVER

    https://s.samsungfood.com/Rs4DZ This is in the oven for dinner: a high-protein &amp;quot;sloppy joe&amp;quot; casserole. I made half the recipe, so we will have leftovers for two lunches. I would love to provide an outside link, but the creator apparently has no separate site. Sorry, folks. #HomeCooking #HighProteinLowCarb

    Okay, folks, we made it through last week relatively unscathed, so we&amp;#39;re going in on the sequel! #TheAdventuresofHerculesII1985 #Monsterdon
