h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

First we had snow, then over this weekend we've had a "deadly storm" called Bert that chucked a load of rain and caused flooding in many places.

Bert!! How is that name gonna make folk panic!!1

I saw that.

The first storm that our weather folk named was called Doris!!!

What the ****** etc to strike fear/doom

"we" are pathetic!!!!

I think they may be having trouble with the concept.

Here's something for you from nature: a transparent butterfly! (It's real.) It's also poisonous.

time for "nighttime" snackcatch you later tomorrow ok


sleep and dream well both

Thanks! You, too!

Well! I don't know about "your neck of the woods" ?

But here! Apart from a stupidly named storm = rain/flooding in many places, it's boring

It's really dark and gloomy here. But it's supposed to be boring - this is Thanksgiving week, so mostly we're all trying to catch up quickly so we can do nothing except eat and watch old movies for about 4 days.

In that case then - Happy Thanks Giving!
I know it's a big event over there
I also hope that the weather allows some outdoor events

PS: and and a sort of you'll "see" that I'm not saying anything about fart IE: Wrong subject at any time in the future (even in humour)

Thanks! It's Thursday, as always - and it's supposed to rain or snow. We don't care because we aren't going anywhere.

We've got a turkey breast to cook. And I'm headed to Aldi tomorrow afternoon for this'n'that. Hopefully I will be able to make a couple of special dishes.

We aren't going to the farm - we said we'd go another day and visit with my sister and brother-in-law. But they will have a houseful of kids and I have 'special needs' with the food. (And to tell the truth, I prefer my own recipes. )

On a different tack

on tv, "they" were saying about liver damage etc due to alcohol drinks etc

(copied via government webpages)

All adults:
To keep health risks to a low level, it is safest not to drink more than 14 units per week. For adults who drink as much as 14 units per week, it is best to spread this evenly over 3 days or more.

HA! As I nip into my bedroom from hereI don't measur it, because it's from bottle to mouth

I've drunk whisky since the early 70's and I still here ---inc my liver

You know you best.

I know when I've had enough to drink
When I see everyone else is laid down


The last time I went "over the top" (1 night totally drunk) was late 1970's

I've always told folk - I control the whisky! It don't control meand never will...

Plus, bringing 2 kids up, from 5 and 6 yrs old to now 38 and 39

Priorities

Heading off! More for sleep than food or night cap

Sleep and dream well both ok


later

You, too!

Some say dreams! Some say nightmares! Some reoccurring ? some a one off ?

When I awake! I think How the hell did my mind come up with that one ????

I sometimes get other people's dreams - I just shrug.

Other's dreams ain't "real"

Your own mind still make it's own up
some say it's your mind cataloguing events etc ?

No matter what any "shrink" etc has a theory of

No one WILL EVER work out the subconscious of the human mind's workings
