100 stones = $26.99

Now look at that ^ driveway. How many 1000s of $ would that cost???

Geeze! [tm FranC 201x]... Just get it paved.

Mainly because I have no desire to be at the beck and call of a telephone.

I agree there, absolutely.

I keep my TracFone in the car for emergencies only. I do NOT keep
it turned on. And, it did come in handy when the landline kept crapping
the bed a couple years ago.

Charge it up and keep it in the car.

Now for today's totally random and out-of-the-blue posting lesson:

Wrong:
"a myriad of"
As in:
"All I see is you spinning out into a myriad of other topics that have nothing to do with what I said"

Correct:
"myriad"
As in:
"All I see is you spinning out into myriad other topics that have nothing to do with what I said"

Thank you.

Back to our normal conversation.

Well... irregardless...

 

[classwife]

why the E- ?

 

[classwife]

Well... irregardless...

*snort!*

 

[SilverBear]

why the E- ?

Now THAT is a good question!!!

I got a test paper back and that is all that showed up in red.

The question(s) I got wrong are not marked at all.

Teach just gave me an "E-" with absolutely NO explanation.

 

[SilverBear]

why the E- ?

Or, it could have been the essay portion of the test.
But still, no comments in red from teach. So, I will
just have to accept the unsubstantiated "E-" and
carry on with my life. No learning opportunity provided.

 

[classwife]

So the E- would be less than exceptional ?

 

[SilverBear]

So the E- would be less than exceptional ?

"Not passing".

There's another word for that, but it escapes me at the moment.

Glad he is doing as well as possible under the circumstances

Pretty good news to me. No diabetes was music to my ears. I don't think I could handle that again.

He started out smiling, it looked like, then said something nasty to her. Had to have. Makes me so sad for her.

His "longer" talking was to somebody else. He turns his head
ever so slightly toward Melania, and says just ONE word.
And, whatever it was ... was pretty crappy.

Here's another picture... he just LEAVES her behind at the limo
rather than escorting her up the steps to the Obamas.



What an utter slime.

NOBODY there to walk with her.

It was an adjective as used in my example.

And then he flies into the White House, again leaving her behind,
to get OBVIOUS consoling guidance into the doorway by the Obamas.

Look... Barack even holds out his other hand as if he's saying "after
you" and/or "watch your step".

See... they KNOW the score.

And so will we, in time.

What a RICHARD!!! What a classless clod!!! "Me me me! Me first!"
