    Sorry to hear of your loss. We have always had cats, and can sympathize. Our current cat Luna, is 14 1/2 years old,

    Complaint: I had to have our 16 year old cat put down last evening. And of course it was after hours for the vet so I get charged the extra $200 for after hours in addition to th euthanasia costs.

    Did you delete that one and try redownloading a new copy?

    Yes, I deleted Summer Edition Liu.zip.  Then I downloaded it again.  3rd party zip extractor says that a file inside is corrupt.  I have the same issues with Reby Sky and Reby Sky's hair.  Now I wonder if something is wrong with my solid state drive or internet connection.  Maybe I can try using another web browser.  Maybe I should try using another unzipping program to decompress the zip files.

    Non-complaint:  Wheee...!  I saw my first marijuana dispensary in NY State!  Around here we go to the Indian reservation for cigarettes and gas because they don't have to charge State tax on the products.  I was with a friend this morning and she had to get gas so we ended up at the Reservation.  While there I noticed one of those 12 foot tall, air-inflated tubes with arms that wave around erratically to attract your attention.  The wording on the main body of the figure was "MARIJUANA".  Yeah, it kind'a grabbed my attention.surprise

    I knew that dispensaries had started opening but had never seen one.  So, I had to check it out.

    I still can't get over that I walked into a small modern stand-alone store (at the side of the gas station) and the smell of MJ was assaulting my nose as I entered.  I checked out the prices.  They're high ($20/3.6g, i.e. eighth of an ounce) but reasonable for the quality of product (i.e. you don't need much at a time).  

    I commented, "Y'know, I waited 50 years for this".  He said, we hear that a lot.yes

    What is a GameCube?  I saw an article about them, but I'm not sure what it is.  Looks like a weird CD player?

    It's an old Nintendo gaming console.  You'd pop open its top, put a very small disc into it, and then close it and launch the game.  I loved my GameCube a lot when it was the 'current thing'  :) 

    Its successor the "Wii"  not as much, and not because of the silly name haha

    ...well looks like a good time to sock away some extra Zlotys for the system upgrade. Sales have not been very inspiring.

    However cleaned up nicely on the weekly freebies and got an item off my wishlist that was in Fastgrab. 

    Would like to use this month's PC (or I guess I should say Daz +) coupons as I spaced on them last month.

    I did not sleep a lot last night and I read the above response and I guess because of the way the page loaded and that a quote was not used, I didn't  realize the advice was directed at Starionwolf's "Auth Expired" issue and instead thought the advice was directed at Hacsart...

    HACSART, DON'T DO THAT!!... THAT ONLY WORKS WITH CLONED CYBERPENGUINS!!

    And honestly it really only works twice and then they go rogue and run amok like uncontrollable tuxedoed killing machines... it's kinda cute at first, but it wears thin quickly... Also, CyberPenguins are very hard to make these days because of pandemic/crypto related CPU shortages, so you might not even be able to initialize the new copy anyway if the CPU won't recognize the off brand neural interface you'll probably have to use in place of the PengTek™ parts...

    That was cheap...

    DoorDash just bought a food delivery service based on Helsinki, capitol of Finland for $8 Billion, which is about 10% of finnish governments annual budget...

    It seems there are mountains of excess money floating around that needs to be used for something, be it a badly drawn picture of a kitty, a single black pixel or a food delivery service in Finland...

    Thank God none of that money is being used to solve actual problems.

    After two recessions and two companies gone down, I think the governments repo man would be surpriced when prying open the coffin wink

    It wouldn't be a coffin full of "Rare Tulips" would it?*... just wondering for a friend... and I definitely believe they really are tulips...

    Definitely...

    I need to clean my aquarium this weekend!  Neither Loki or Summers want to help.  Though they both love eating fish food!

    Its me isn't it?... I know I cause headaches and eye strain... even dizziness and itchy spleen... but that goes away eventually... mostly as soon as the madness sets in... but even that is temporary... because of the super-madness... 

    I can change... I really can't... I mean I can... I can't... I mean I can change, even though I keep typing that I can't... I really can't... Damn these honest fingers... stop typing can't!

    But really I could be a lot worse, and if that's not change, what is?... Well, besides the loose coins in your wallet or purse...

    I personally think that all the lint and pocket boogers that collects on change is why so many people fear change... nobody wants to touch other people's pocket boogers.

    This isn't helping is it?

    If you really want to hide my posts, may I suggest masking tape over your screen... or really dark sunglasses... which will also make you look cool if you wear them at night... especially if you like that Corey Hart song "Spot you in a coal mine"... which has nothing to do with sunglasses but I think it was about someone who fell into an abandoned coal mine because they were wearing their sunglasses at night... I might be combining two songs there... 

    Well, I could just be jumping to conclusions... Well, more like lazily reaching for whichever ones are most convenient... I really don't feel like jumping to anything right now because I've got a headache from accidentally reading some of what I wrote, and jumping just makes my brain feel loose.

    The last time it got loose it was practically impossible to get back in so, I'm not going through that again.

    Anyway, sorry about the itchy spleen and whatever madness I may have caused.

    I hope you feel better.

    Sorry, I was talking to my brain, but I hope you feel good too.

    It isn't too often.  The time I really wanted to was when someone posted a political thread.  I don't really like political threads as they tend to be very unpleasant in the end.

    No, it's not you. You are more often than not, a breath of fresh air in some threads. It's other things, that I would rather not see. I like to heavily curate my internet experience, and unfortunately this forum doesn't fully allow for that, to my liking.

    Now for real complaints.  I bought hot cocoa yesterday at dollar tree, but now I can't find it.  Also I found out that I didn't get a coin purse but a tech one instead.  Oh well it will work with change right?
