Seeler....family get togethers are the best, especially when a little one steals the show. Just wonderful.

Good Morning All ! Yesterday was Seeler Girl birthday . We gathered at her place to celebrate with grandbaby competing for the center of attention and grabbing the highlight when she took her first few steps without hanging on. Great Day ! No real plans for today.
I can't believe that the baby I held in my arms many years ago is now a grandmother.

More fun for grandmother and great grandmother I imagine. Mom will have a lot more running around!
 
Our anniversary of coming to Canada January 25 th 25 years ago is coming up. I am planning a get together with family and friends for supper and I found someone who will loan me Canadaopoly to play after. Meal will be poutine, Ceasar salad, meat balls (swedish) and carrot cake.
Looking for suggestions for variations for the poutine.
 
Good morning! For the joys of family gatherings, the joys of the circle of life, of anniversaries and arrivals, for the big and little things in life, we're here tp celebrate, commiserate, support, and chat. The Coffee Cart is ready once again, come on in.

Can the moni be monopolized?

Go figure the main purpose of inflation ... it appears to assist those on top better than those at the base ...
 
There is information coming out (like odd things do) about criminology and the varied reasons for studying the topic.

It appears some just do it to weasel their way about the legitimacy of virtue ... thus corruption on the criminal sense! It does have that aura about it ...

Thus some cri me an Ocean that is a Black Water! There are subtle connections in the abstract templar state ... mental warpage for gaining a step up on your alien neighbour? The Gods of War overwhelm the advocates of piece with respect to the dangers about what parts remain where they should adhere ...

Differentiates the false physical from intangible essences of thought and emotion ... thus the mortal wrot in the vessel ... and we cannot deal with it because of all that which was already done and burried ... because we avoid learning about past understanding as mist opportunities! It is leagues deep and extremely supple as the earth flows and drifts as plates ... renders all assunder ...

Such are the spectres to be dealt with under the thing ... or if down as it sticks up ... thus sheaves ... and thinks rippling in the spine of the bindings ...

Eve end tuol "E" it will be read into ... as a night mare ... as Mariah rides thro' ... fanning the ess pyres ...

Some of us just enjoy the underseen as resting under the green ... Kell'es end? The turf rolls on ... indeterminate go round ... the determined fight everything even things beyond thei avarice ... and still they incomprehend as the script said don't go near it ... that's a logos scheme ... plot beyond the overtly emotional?

Because of aborted virtue ... we relabelled it a dance, bounce or tattoo ... your choice of the spiralling desi Lu? Spectacu;ar in temporal domain ... spatial? Said to be a vast chasm ... often filled with waste ... political thing! Beyond that the 4^th item ... and then the 5^th ... and it remains as lyre ...

Peer amid US? oh we cound't have that ... for shame ... thus the sham ... when rendering the shaman one may redact greas balls ... put a wick in one and light ... it may burn for daze ... polity is maid of this!

Happy morning! Seeler, it is so exciting that you have gotten to see your great-grand's first steps!

And in a much snarkier spirit, hurrah for three days sans Mystic. Couldn't ya have made it a week, or a month? And if you perma-banned Jae, Rita and Stephen, what exactly is holding you back on Mystic? I mean, worst-case scenario: Berserk has 85-year old snit-fit, keels over dead, and his hordes of loving friends and family sue Wondercafe2...
 
I remember when I was really hurt by Jae...he was good at the personal attack. But I changed. I choose not to read posts by posters who may rant or hurt me in some way. That doesn’t mean that I don’t read views that are different than mine. I read them when I am in the space to be objective, kind and/or learn something about a topic or human thinking. I choose not to dismiss people, but I don't always allow them full-reign in my head. Having said that, I understand that the moderators of this group need to accept advice from the members. I am just telling you the way I approach this group.
 
Upon reading that above, it makes me sound like I am better than I really am! I'm not always tolerant, but it is a worthwhile goal when I am in front of the computer screen. Then I step out into the real world....
 
Fair or not, I viewed Jae as a damaged child. It has been said that hurt people hurt people and it often seems to be true. Hard to respond to certain stuff sometimes, but I try to be reasonable. Mystic's posts often make me roll my eyes and I rarely waste time conversing..
Banning people may lead to a less interesting board so should only be done rarely.
Maybe this is much like real life. Some people add valuable insights, others merely create ripples. Up to each individual to react, respond or ignore.

I view Jae a lot like myself - someone used to being bullied and teased. I chose to deal with those things with humour - both as a coping mechanism and as a way to deal with people who are being a**holes. I get my endorphins from making people laugh. Some may get frustrated with me, but that's not the part I enjoy. Jae gets his kicks from making people angry. Once you realize he's actually trying to sabotage his own interactions and then blame you for being mad at him, everything starts to make more sense.

I'd like to think we could have rolled with that better.
 
Good morning, all! As we process the events in our community, let us gather round the Coffee Cart to discuss, to find support, and to partake of hot beverages. Let us remember that these things didn't happen in a vacuum. Anyway, the Cart is ready, coffee fresh, tea water boiling, come and enjoy.

Jae always intrigued me. I always read his posts (didn't scroll through them like I do with a few others) and he often made me laugh. There were times his humor missed the mark though and there were times I found him mean spirited.

And I wondered if he was really the Evangelical Christian he claimed to be. Could his personna have been a parody of some sort? Parts of his story were clearly fictional. I am thinking of his set of rhyming brothers, for example. Once in while details of his life seemed to be inconsistent.

What an interesting cast of characters we have had here over the years!
 
I miss the non-vacuum of the community in days gone by. I like our little community. It's just that things were more lively and arguably interesting back in the day

Dog was on the bed this morning as per usual. She started making wretching noises so I moved quickly to get her outside. That's too an abrupt start to the day......
 
I had a very pleasant start to the day. Woke up after a good long sleep in a warm bed, encircled in the arms of the big guy, and then dozed to the soothing sounds of Loreena McKennit's harp, while he made coffee (I bought him a pound of Kicking Horse for Xmas) and breakfast (ham omelette with cheddar and avocado on rye). Not working until one. Was going to take dog for a walk before work, but it's pretty cold (-5 and sorta raw and windy and I have a bit of an earache anyway), and she's fast asleep on her dog blanket on my bed, having had her morning romp in backyard, fresh water and breakfast biscuits, so perhaps not. I'm reading and drinking jasmine green tea.
 
Oh, and in other news, my vehicle was pronounced terminal on Monday. I did spend the $400 and change to replace the wheel bearing which was going to fall off any second, but told them I'd just be careful with the brakes for the next few weeks, and listen for increasing noises in the remaining bearings.

I hate car shopping, and it turns out that the big guys' best friend is trying to sell a 2014 Subaru, manual transmission, for a very agreeable price, a little older than I'd planned but well-built vehicle, only two owners, both immaculate types.
