Your comment reminds me of going to the doctor for a prostate exam. I never did much like him slipping my ring on his finger.

Next time, make him an offer he can't refuse.

Gus and Maggie were enjoying some quiet moments in the evening sunshine that comes through our living room window.

Time to call it a night. Early day tomorrow as I make the last push to finish us Winter semester grading. Paix, mes amis.

Morning all. A beautiful sunrise is forming in the eastern skies. So, it's time to get up and going on a new day. I shall make us a fine breakfast befitting of this new day. Enjoy.

+14C as we approach 1PM. I took the last bit of remaining snow that was on my property and made a big snowball with it .......... about the size of a basketball. I set it out in the middle of the back garden and watched the doxies nibble at it, jump on it and just destroy it until there was nothing left. Truthfully, I was not sorry to see it go.

As we approach 4PM High Tea, I need a bit of help ................ not with the making of the tea, but with a translation.

I may be showing my age, and not knowing "text talk" since I don't text, but what might this mean in regular English -- "I can haz cheeseburger?" I am told that it is part of "the Lolcats meme". While I know what a meme means, I am not sure about the Lolcats and certainly not understanding the "I can haz ...." part.

To any and all who might help me, a free scone will find a place next to your tea or coffee (or beer, if that is your preference). Merci.

I text all the time. In our family, we all have cell phones and find that texting is more convenient than talking.

I texted something either profound, or profoundly funny to my granddaughter one day. She posted the conversation on Facebook. Her friends didn't respond to my stunning wit, but several were astounded that a grandmother could (and would) text!

I was very flattered that my granddaughter thought I was "cool."

Good day all. I just changed my iPhone plan to allow texting. It had been disabled for two years. I now only have unlimited free texting to five phone numbers of my choice along with that of my wife's phone who is also on my account to total six people. So far, I have my daughter and one son as well as two friends on that list, leaving me with one more to add in future. Any other text I send would cost me .20 cents each.

One thing I have learned is that texting is much faster than email, although I must admit none of us use that text lingo shorthand, just normal typing like here or in an email for example.

Margaret, I have always known you were cool!
