The lead actor uses phrases that were not used until recently such as referring to a man and a woman as you guys and the phrase “what she said”. A man in 1946 would not use the F word in regular communication with a woman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She got her masters degree in Medieval History, with a focus on the War of the Roses. She is also fascinated by that time period. I know very little about the English Monarchy, other than what I've been told and mostly forgotten during visits to the UK. My youngest daughter has a Masters in History and teaches World History currently.My wife has a degree in History but never worked in the field. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of our twin granddaughters have brown hair and brown eyes. So do their husbands. one has two little boys, a brown haired, brown eyed one, and his little brother has blonde hair and blue eyes, like his grandfather. The other twin has a baby girl with blue eyes and a shiny bald head. Genetics is very confusing! Beautiful children. I thought the middle photo was an Ad - he looks like he is modeling his "cool" wardrobe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ida is pounding them. I see rain gauges showing more than 2 in, some more than 3, and more to come. Mountainous terrain , streams are going to get a lot of water with all on the runoff from the mountain, Laurel Mountain. All of my relatives in the area are on high ground, so they should be safe. I'm in Southeastern PA and started pouring buckets of rain around 3:45 this afternoon. Keep getting phone alerts for tornado warnings. I'll be leaving work in about an hour (maybe less) hopefully the roads won't be too bad. Last I heard we are expecting rain till early morning and could have as much as 6 inches. Our ground is saturated as is with all the rain we have had the last 2 weeks. expect there will be lots of flooded roads 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We kept seeing flood alerts on the highway signs on the way in, and it was pouring buckets. By the time we left about 3 hours later, the road was underwater, and we were the last vehicle through before they closed it. One house we passed, that was near the stream, had the water level up about 2 foot high on their first floor. Stay safe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big boss is away this week so I'm in charge of locking up the office building.

Rare bobmacliberty Posted September 1, 2021 #28490 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Dinner tonight at what is becoming our favorite local pizza place…V Pizza. Micheline had the Signature Margherita with a glass of Chianti and I had the weekly special Buffalo Chicken pizza with a local IPA. Both pies were excellent and will make for good leftover lunch tomorrow (sorry OB). 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A roller coaster ride may have been beneficial in knocking it through.😉 She has been up and going. Feeling much better. We were talking about how the roller coasters could help. A strong vibrator has helped in the pass. They are considering going tomorrow morning to the amusement park. We will see if it starts moving again! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I currently live in a crazy state that just passed a law that anyone can carry a gun concealed or not without a permit .

Sunshine3601 Posted September 2, 2021 #28500 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Left the office a little before 7 pm and what normally takes 10 mins to get home took just under an hour. Flooding everywhere, police shutting down roads that I could see several cars stuck in water. My next detour didnt go well huge tree down across the road. After a lot of zig zagging I'm home and sweetie Eric had my dinner all heated up for me. He heard on news there was 2 or 3 confirmed tornadoes only a couple miles from us. This Ida is a mess! I heard New orleans and other areas may be without electricity for 3 to 4 weeks. Anyone in her path, be safe, shes not nice! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
