Jim Brennan, you beat me to the punch.
I have seen this laptop constantly jump the cursor around on me and I need to immediately stop n repair damage to the message.
I know this is probably one of the quirks in the machine. I don't know how much this kind of problem occurs, but/t my writing could easily become "garbled" if I didn't bother to do so. It is frustrating.
However, I find, too, that it slows the process enough so that I'm also thinking more and so the message might change because of this.
One thing I don't appreciate is lazy writing. G's tendency was to leave stuff and not to fix it before posting.
Aside from that, who knows. I think it is best for all to just not mention him here. It was difficult for me and the day was pretty dim and dark yesterday following a brief phone tete-a-tete (a metaphoric tete-a-tete, since we were on the phone and NOT actully face to face) with Michael (real name).
So, GANG, let's not gang up on him, as it's not cool.
I emailed FearlessTopoLeader in regard to him, but haven't gotten a response and likely will not. It's how the modern moderator moderates, I guess, with a "hands off" and "laissez-faire" attitude.
I wish him well, hope he raises decent kids, and has a long life. But I don't appreciate his slack attitude nor like the way he posted, jamming things up here in Middle Earth.

I've been moused in Mouced, it seems.Bushman, I never saw this. Thanks.
I heard Leadbelly and Blind Lemon
On the street where I was born
Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee,
Muddy Waters singin' "I'm A Rolling Stone"
I went home and read my Christmas Humphreys' book on Zen
Curiosity killed the cat
Kerouac's "Dharma Bums" and "On The Road"
What's my line?
I'm happy cleaning windows

if you're reading this gNome
i believe I pointed out (deleted later after a reprieve) that your language was a bit off-putting and you should work on it
i do appreciate your tastes in music
i have recently experienced the phenomenon of the problem being not so much what I said as how I said it

Idle question...
What would The Searchers have been like if Robert Fuller had the lead instead of The Duke?

My sister-in-law loved Gene Autry and my wife loved Roy Rogers as kids.
I liked Richard Boone, "Paladin." He didn't wander so much as travel from SF to a trouble spot, though.
Kwai C. Chang, on the other hand, was a true wanderer. As was Johnny Yuma.
I feel my thoughts beginning to wander, now, too.

I guess it ain't scary aid, but a meltdown once in a while seems to come with the proclivity. The invective seemed relatively equally distributed between the heavens and the smurf. I should leave it to those who know him, to mention if he's off route. Still, if your cord is cut gnome, be free. And Trump still is a dick, ... reincarnated?
Best to the gnomelets.

You're looking pretty good there mousie.
Not as good as Alaina, but ...
Did you notice how long her fingers are? Definitely not a Trump match.
Had my second YAG laser treatment yesterday on the plastic lens. That's two now in two years. Most people don't require a treatment for many years after cataract surgery. I tend these days to blame everything on my funky thyroid and/or low bioavailable testosterone and high SHBG.
What's a vato to do?
Definitely made a difference in my vision.
Anyway, we all have our ups and downs
Holey Jesus Christo de Otay
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"'
Not a harp_monica in sight, but 67% of the guitar slingers are wearing sneakers.

A vato could put it in low gear, get low, and ride slow.More later.
Signing off from downtown Mouced.
edit: No, wait. I'm at the 5.10 Bistro and that Jameson's looks good after a hard day's shoot at the Christmas bicycle giveaway.
Just killin' time till The Bus comes, y'unnerstand.

don't sweat the YAG. You're part of the Treinta por ciento... No eres la unica. needing a YAG isn't a failure of: the surgery, your healing, your care since the surgery, your thyroid (never heard of it anyway). They happen.
Also, la Thyroid can affect the ojos. Hopefully, no dryness, double vision, moreover no bulge. Thyroid and eyes generally ain't that exciting... if you and your doctor have it controlled, serious eye complications are rare. I'm not a medical doc, but it can affect mood (depression) too.
Finally, beware of any flashes or floaters,or a curtain in your vision. If they make the scene, be sure to be seen, immediamente. You want to keep seen. Get your eye dilated about a month out. If all is good, your and may be you too should be good.
please take this link more seriously. from the experts:

Thanks Jim Clipper
I had overlooked your credentials
Sorry
One endo said I have Graves.
However, I have no Graves symptoms, but my thyroid issue is definitely immune system based.
Hypo to hyper back to hypo. I was overdosed on levothyroxine for years with no labs - yikes.
Thanks for the link also

This is part of what I love about this thread.
The two to three conversations running from page to page, sometimes.
Question.
What, if anything, is outlawed in Nevada?
Not Spanish, certainmente.
Too much weed? Nah/f*#k no.
Tandem bikes, random hikes, Facebook likes?
Mountains? Hardly.

I'm not a legit sawbones, but I did somehow pass as an O.D. Also, we were required to do an eye study in school. The school of the bear (older one) prided themselves on the research.
Our professors, in the 70's, when studious themselves, studied the effects of recreational drugs on eyes and vision, their own. I never looked, but their thesis is probably still in the library. Viva la republica del pueblo de berk-olay.
Thread drift... Indian Rock?, more over, buildering? I heard rumors of some stout ventures. Campanile always looked li/ke it could be fun to nail and hook, granite. Please chime in with stories
Throwpie: if it must be, maybe we should roll one up, a mouse that is. My truck lacks the carpet kit. Help customize the ride with an abducted mouse, in a rolled up carpet, please? Should still be enough room for the dogs and a cooler. If we wait till dark, outside the park, the mouse may mellow, and the valley free.
