@George-K said in Today at the furniture store: Maggie has one spot on my leather chair that's attracted her. This seems to have stopped it. She doesn't even come near it now. [image: 1663596761679-image.jpeg] George, I got some of this. It's like magic! Thanks.

@Klaus said in Maybe we're treating boys like defective girls?: The system is rigged against boys in a million ways. And every one of those million ways should make them stronger.

@Jolly said in Referendum for all Russians: Kinda off topic... I don't follow her all the time, but there is a Danish lass on YouTube doing a Vlog about her motorcycle ride from the bottom of South America to Alaska. Currently, she's somewhere in British Columbia. She has a remarkably sunny disposition and a ready smile. The channel is Itchy Boots. I have a monthly conference call that is run by a Dutch woman, and she's also very up-beat and humorous. Maybe it's the blokes who have created the national stereotypes....

Now I know how a male spider feels

Or, they could gave grabbed a hacksaw...

@Copper said in Jupiter last night.: Is that better or worse than what Galileo Galilei saw? Much better. The level of detail captured by the camera is even more than you can see though the telescope live. The two moons that are in the photo, are subdued by my rusty image processing skills. There is a better photo in this data. I just need to learn more about and get a lot more experience with the new tools that allow me to extract it from the data. I am also looking at a new camera. And getting to use a 17" behemoth of a telescope for my next attempt. Galileo's optics were very crude compared to modern optics.

@taiwan_girl interesting!

Bet the climate changes some.

Biden? Or his nonexistent crowds? Remember that hoot of a townhall he had with a dozen people, all six feet from each other?

Some very good shooting there!!

It will be interesting to see if things change (with COVID) after the upcoming Party Congress.

@Horace said in Nobel Prize: "Spooky" explained: I wonder if an explanation theory exists? I was thinking the same thing. They say it is real, but I do not see how the proof is.

One of the giants of the country music genre - up there with Patsy Cline. Can’t even begin to imagine the artists she influenced. The real deal too - grew up knowing what hard times were. R.I.P.

Some one of these days white people are going to get tired of this stupidity.
