Hi Daryl!
DS> Never mind the name of the TV show, perfect vision, or this
DS> year. :P
BM> As I write this yesterday was August 20th, so August 20, 2020, or
BM> 082020. or something like that!
DS> What was dangerous was that if you just noted the year on your
DS> checks as "20" instead of "2020", someone could put a different
DS> number after it...and you could be in big trouble for it.
Possibly! Might be able to prove the forgery as the check was
deposited out of sequence and the date was usually written with a two
digit date rather than four. I use a dater stamp -- not to be fancy but
a habit and convenience I got into when working at the college and most
if not all of my documents had to be dated as to when I worked on them. Started
getting into the habit of grabbing the stamp to date and in some
case post the time. Eventually carried that to notes I did at home.
DS> When I take citrate of magnesia, it hits within 10 minutes.
BM> Why am I thinking of a boxing match between snails? First one throws a
BM> punch, takes 10-15 minutes to make contact with the second.
DS> Sounds like playing a 78 rpm record at 16 rpm. :P
Just about! ...Reminded me of this:
https://universes.art/en/specials/john-cage-organ-project-halberstadt
ORGAN2/ASLSP, the slowest and longest music piece ever, is being
performed for 639 years in Halberstadt (Germany). Next tone change: 5
September 2020.
Performance started in 2001 with a 17 month pause before the first note heard!!
DS> What I wanted to do was get it up to $1, with the gas for $1.15 a
DS> gallon regular wise...then with the discount, get it for 15 cents
DS> a gallon, take a photo of it, and watch it go viral <G>.
BM> You are such a trouble-maker!
DS> Just in one of my devious nether moods. You can't tell me that
DS> you don't have them. I'm sure that Nancy Backus has these as
DS> well...like in response to my QWK Mail Tagline of "I took an IQ
DS> test, and the results were negative"...her response to it was
DS> "That explains a lot <g,d,r>". She said later "I hope you knew
DS> that was in fun", and I said "Yes"...I busted out laughing when I
DS> read it...but I was asking for it.
I must have missed that message when you requsted... -- oh, not
literally. Nevermind!
BM> Just remember not to do your SSTV (Slow Scan TV) while everything is in the
BM> laundry!
DS> Well, I decided to do laundry yesterday, instead of going to an
DS> area Train Show. Because of COVID-19, everyone had to wear masks,
DS> and there was no food or drink for sale. The Saturday show is
DS> bigger than the Sunday one, but I felt doing laundry was more
DS> important.
<sniff-sniff> Yes! <gg> So did you go on Sunday? Sometimes the smaller
shows are just as good if not better than the big ones as less of a
crowd and so a better opportunity to see up-close.
BM> Glad nothing was damaged. Maybe get into the habit of blowing your
BM> nose every so often to clear the sinuses? Or a small candy like a
BM> TicTac to keep your throat moistened when starting to feel an episode
BM> coming on?
DS> I go through throat losenges like they were candy. I bought 6
DS> packs of 200 losenges from Walgreens last week.
Maybe vary amongst brands? More importantly formulations. Thinking
maybe as often as your taking them your body is getting used to the
anti-cough medication in one and so loosing effectiveness.
DS> Or like a girl who had the hiccups after eating a certain
DS> food...she didn't want that food anymore, as it made her cough
DS> funny. :P
Plus she should have been havign she-cups as males get he-cups!
