[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:54:58 PM EDT] <KK> Hello all!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:55:31 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hello there @KK
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:55:45 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> How's everything coming along?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:55:50 PM EDT] <bynw> hi all
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:56:07 PM EDT] <KK> Still unpacking, but settling in.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:56:21 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Almost past the hard part
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:57:27 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Dog and kitty settled in yet?

[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:57:43 PM EDT] <KK> Still finding specific things I've been looking for. Today it was eye makeup. And the kitchen is nearly tamed.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:57:52 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> hello drk
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:57:56 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> dfk
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:58:34 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> I'm still a little jealous of your big-enough kitchen. 🙂
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:59:05 PM EDT] <derynifank> Hi KK and Bethane. Glad to hear missing things are being found. After a move, it takes awhile
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [6:59:38 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> I was finding things in moving boxes in my basement 20 years after I moved in to this house.

[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:00:02 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hello Bee
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:00:16 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Hi everyone!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:00:17 PM EDT] <derynifank> And there are always a few things that you know you had but that disappear to never be seen again.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:00:25 PM EDT] <derynifank> Hi Bee
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:00:29 PM EDT] <KK> Haven't found the time to teach Booker to used the new dog door. And Gus occasionally pees in the bathtub, fortunately right over the drain. I've discovered that Booker can squeeze through the small opening in the dog gate, that's supposed to keep him from the cat box, so I suspect that's why Gus has been using the tub.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:01:06 PM EDT] <KK> But it's all getting better, I need to figure out a way to ensmallen that opening in that gate, so that Gus can get through but Booker can't.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:01:19 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Complication among the animals!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:01:21 PM EDT] <derynifank> Getting pet toileting straight can be a job
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:01:42 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> laughs at the word "ensmallen"
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:01:58 PM EDT] <KK> At least I've discovered that Booker can hold it through the night. Getting much better sleep now.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:02:37 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Do Booker and Gus get along?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:02:44 PM EDT] <derynifank> That;s good. Sleep is important
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:02:50 PM EDT] <The_Bee> speaking of pets, Melantha went to he vet for blood work today.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:03:04 PM EDT] <KK> Yes, but Booker can be scary when he's romping too close to Gus.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:03:16 PM EDT] <derynifank> How is she doing?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:03:38 PM EDT] <bynw> hopefully he will learn to use the door eventually
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:03:57 PM EDT] <KK> And they're both in strange surroundings, though that's correcting itself. Gus spends most of his time sleeping on my bed.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:04:06 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> @bynw, are you all situated in your new apartment?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:04:15 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Not bad; I got more medicine, and an appetite booster.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:04:27 PM EDT] <KK> Melantha went today, as in Sunday? I hope she's ok.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:04:37 PM EDT] <derynifank> Scritches for Melantha
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:05:11 PM EDT] <KK> Of course, where you live, maybe there are vets who keep Sunday hours.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:05:11 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Is Melantha a black kitty?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:05:14 PM EDT] <The_Bee> She seems okay; this was a routine blood test to make sure her only kidnay is okay.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:05:43 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Bethane, Yes. Melantha the Mini-Panther.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:05:50 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, all. Everyone OK?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:06:01 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hey HoundMistress, welcome back
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:06:13 PM EDT] <derynifank> Hi HM. Glad you remembered
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:06:14 PM EDT] <bynw> i'm pretty much situated
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:06:16 PM EDT] <KK> Hi, HoundMistress. All's well in Viginia.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:06:24 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Hello, Mistress of Hounds!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:06:45 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I went off to check on the decorah eagles and lost track of time.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:07:06 PM EDT] <bynw> HoundMistress, you can always come and visit
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:07:08 PM EDT] <KK> And how are the eagles?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:07:14 PM EDT] <derynifank> Actually you are almost right on time
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:07:19 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, Bee
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:07:37 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Are you near the Decorah area, bynw?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:07:46 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Who or what are the decorah eagles?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:07:51 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> What are the Decorah eagles doing?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:08:03 PM EDT] <bynw> not really but we could make a trip of it
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:08:25 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> The adults moved the nest this year & it's on private property . the owner won't let them put up the cameras. 3 eaglets & seem to be doing well so far.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:08:31 PM EDT] <derynifank> Where is it?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:08:37 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> That would be fun!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:08:52 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Yay for eaglets!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:08:58 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Decorah IA
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:09:32 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Are they still in that ugly/adorable stage?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:10:05 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> They should be at the shedding feathers to get adult feathers soon.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:10:14 PM EDT] <KK> How old are they?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:10:14 PM EDT] <The_Bee> what species--bald eagles?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:10:32 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Hi all
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:10:39 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Hi shiral
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:10:45 PM EDT] <KK> Hi, Shiral.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:10:48 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Not very old. Bald eagles, yes. Wish we could see them.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:10:48 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hi Shiral
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:10:56 PM EDT] <derynifank> Don't know why they calll them bald since they have head feathers
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:10:57 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, Shiral
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:11:12 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> It's from the old English for "white"
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:11:14 PM EDT] <derynifank> Hi Shiral
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:11:19 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> sets table for tea
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:11:38 PM EDT] <bynw> hi Shiral
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:11:44 PM EDT] <The_Bee> At first I thought "Decorah Eagles" was the name of a sports team.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:11:57 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> LOL! Would make a good one!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:12:01 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Bee, I had to look it up; I was clueless.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:12:13 PM EDT] <The_Bee> AKA American Eagles
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:12:26 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Yes
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:12:55 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Although we have several different kinds of eagles in the US.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:12:58 PM EDT] <derynifank> Have to go heat something for DH, BRB
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:13:09 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Ben Franklin thought the wild turkey should be our national bird.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:13:27 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Mmmm, it occurs to me with all this talk of baby eagles that there are probably ducklings down in Springville by now....
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:13:33 PM EDT] <KK> I guess from a distance the white looks bald.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:13:34 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I've promised Lou homemade spaghetti & meat sauce so will have to go do that but not right this minute.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:13:50 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I saw a bunny in my yard today.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:13:55 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Tell Lou anticipation makes a meal taste better.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:14:00 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Probably, KK
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:14:07 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Lucky (about the bun)
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:14:29 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> LOL! He's busy watching fire videos while Air Disasters is on in the LR
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:14:37 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I've also seen skunks, but not recently.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:14:41 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Once last year the local quail came to hang out in my backyard for a little whilte, it was great.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:14:42 PM EDT] <KK> I'm seeing squirrels in my back yard, and robins front and back.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:14:54 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> So clearly, he's not drooping from starvation yet, Houndmistress
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:15:07 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Squirrels are cat TV around here
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:15:20 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> So much fun to watch squirrels zip around and chase each other in the trees.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:15:21 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Quanah is starting to enjoy the squirrel population now that our trees are big enough.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:15:38 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> No, he's good for a bit, Shiral
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:15:45 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Excellent
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:15:49 PM EDT] <KK> Gus hasn't yet figured out a place to watch outside. Which is probably just as well, since that might make him want to go outside.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:16:25 PM EDT] <derynifank> Don't want to scare a skunk
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:16:31 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Does Gus ever focuss on the computer screen? Have you ever shown him bird TV on Youtube?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:16:33 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Both my cats like my bed best as a nap spot. It's been chilly this week
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:16:42 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> In our back yard, the oak tree is down by the fence, so they get plenty of notice before Q gets there.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:16:56 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Skunks encouraged social distances before it was cool
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:03 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Shiral, LOL
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:05 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Melantha missed the sight of two sparrows fighting on my balcony. (or maybe courting?)
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:22 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Hi everyone!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:24 PM EDT] <KK> Probably the latter.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:27 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> LOL! Yes, Shirel.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:29 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hello Jerusha
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:30 PM EDT] <The_Bee> HI Jerusha
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:33 PM EDT] <derynifank> Hi Jerusha
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:35 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, Jerusha
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:42 PM EDT] <KK> Hi, Jerusha.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:17:58 PM EDT] <bynw> hi jerusha
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:18:09 PM EDT] <derynifank> Are you snow free yet?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:18:11 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Before selling her house, Mom had problems with a skunk family taking up residence under her deck. On advice from an animal expert, she played a radio 24/7. I guess the skunks didn't like classical music, because they left.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:18:18 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Hi Jerusha
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:18:33 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Skunks have no taste in music.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:18:39 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Savages
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:18:44 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> I think I can understand the skunk's point of view
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:19:10 PM EDT] <derynifank> It's hard to take any music 24/7
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:19:13 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> No snow on the ground, DFK, but flakes in the air
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:19:16 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Did anyone read "Luann" in the funnies this morning?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:19:16 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> It was a pretty good solution, I thought. No harm done to Mama Skunk and her babies, but made it clear this was not a good option for a home
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:19:25 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Yes. Enjoyed it
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:19:36 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> HoundMistress, no. What was it about?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:19:40 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Wasn't that great!? I had to explain it to Lou.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:03 PM EDT] <KK> We don't get that in my paper.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:11 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> LUann's parents talked quoting Beatles song titles
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:11 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> It was written entirely in Beatle song titles
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:22 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Ah, nice
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:22 PM EDT] <KK> Clever.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:33 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> And it was amazingly coherent!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:45 PM EDT] Nick You are now known as DesertRose.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:46 PM EDT] * The_Bee hasn't read comic strips in a while. Comic books yes, comic strips no.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:49 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I bet it had a lot of young people scratching their heads.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:52 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hello. Back from my grocery run.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:20:59 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Later than I meant to be but ah well.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:00 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Yes, actually made sense!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:00 PM EDT] <The_Bee> WB DR!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:08 PM EDT] <derynifank> Hi DR
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:08 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Sometimes, there are benefits to being a Baby Boomer!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:10 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, DR
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:11 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Thank you.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:13 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Hi DR
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:14 PM EDT] <KK> Groceries are always good to have on hand.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:30 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Or the kid of one. I can follow Beatles lyrics, no sweat. My mom has had a crush on Paul McCartney since 1963 and counting.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:39 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hi @DesertRose (she/her)
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:45 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hi Bethane.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:21:50 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> I used up some elderly apples by making an apple crisp last night
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:00 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Me, too! He was my favorite from the start. Never did see what people saw in Ringo!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:02 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Your Mom has good taste, DR
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:03 PM EDT] <DesertRose> And hi Shiral and Bee and HoundMistress and of course KK and Jerusha.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:04 PM EDT] <KK> Yum!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:21 PM EDT] <derynifank> Yummy
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:34 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> I am fond of apple crisp
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:34 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> I always had a soft spot in my heart for George.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:35 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I'm getting monthly groceries. The problem is, they send the same to everyone, which means a get enough for a large family.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:40 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Oh, I like Ringo. Ringo has a good sense of humor, and if the drummer screws up, it matters not a white what the songwriter meant or the singers or guitarist or what have you do.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:43 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I GET.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:22:59 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I like Ringo at lot better nowadays.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:23:10 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Still a Paul fan
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:23:20 PM EDT] <DesertRose> They were all cute when they were young, but aren't we all.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:23:29 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> We still are!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:23:35 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> The problem is STAYING cute. =o)
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:23:42 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Honestly, at my age, I'd rather have George's depth of thought and/or Ringo's sense of humor.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:23:49 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> There was a discussion on Beatles channel on XM where some other famous drummer was saying Ringo was like a metronome, never off beat
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:23:50 PM EDT] <DesertRose> John was a jerk, though.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:23:52 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Gotta admit; I was kind of a hottie 30-40 years ago. 😉
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:24:20 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I think sometimes John was barely sane.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:24:21 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Too bad I never realized it at the time
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:24:22 PM EDT] <The_Bee> My favorite Beatles song was "All My Loving."
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:24:26 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Not that that excuses Chapman shooting John on his front steps, mind you. Nobody deserves that. But he was a jerk.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:24:43 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> For me, it was Julia. Jerk or not, John could write songs/
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:24:46 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> My very favorite song is Rain
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:24:57 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Mine is "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:25:07 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> OH, yes, he could write
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:25:08 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Shiral, he sure could. And get him and Paul together and it was like nothing else.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:25:09 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Mine was "Can't Buy Me Love"
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:25:28 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> They were pure genius together.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:25:29 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Yes. Makes me feel nostalgic!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:25:43 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Oh he was absolutely a gifted songwriter and the combination of him and Paul was dynamite.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:25:46 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Eleanor Rigby is another of my favorites
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:25:48 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Yeah, remembering our long hair & bell bottoms
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:00 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> He was just really hard on the people who loved him.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:00 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Makes you wonder what could have happened if he hadn't been murdered and he and Paul had gotten back togehter to write a few things.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:22 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Honestly, it's tough to find a *bad* Beatles song; there are some that are less good, but I can't think of any that are outright BAD.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:25 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Somehow I don't think that would have happened
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:29 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Didn't George also write songs?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:32 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yes.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:36 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Bee, he sure did
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:36 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I'm sure we would have liked it. Paul's songs are better now that right after break up
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:40 PM EDT] <DesertRose> And was a multi-instrumentalist to boot.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:47 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> And he was just in his 40's when he died. A great talent was lost. And age might have improved him.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:26:54 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Ringo wrote a few, too.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:27:03 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> George sure did
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:27:14 PM EDT] <The_Bee> George was known as "the quiet Beatle."
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:27:15 PM EDT] <DesertRose> John had *just* turned 40 when he was killed. (born the same year as my bio-father, which is why I can remember)
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:27:18 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> In any other band, George would have been considered an absolute genius songwriter
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:27:21 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Just 40, infact
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:27:25 PM EDT] <derynifank> Nothing quite like Lenon/MCCartney music
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:27:46 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> In the Beatles, he was overshadowed. But he was still genius
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:27:49 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Forty is barely even getting started, for some.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:27:50 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I think it will be popular a long time.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:28:24 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> George wrote a lot of good stuff. I like "When We Was Fab."
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:28:26 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Pardon me a few minutes. I have to do penance (petting) to Carys as an apology for having had the gall to leave the house.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:28:27 PM EDT] <The_Bee> There was TV show dedicated to George not long ago.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:28:29 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Well, hanging around with John and Paul very likely made George a better songwriter himself.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:28:47 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> I love When We Was Fab
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:29:05 PM EDT] <derynifank> You mean you didn't come back with kitty treats?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:29:10 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Bee, what tv show?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:29:13 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> I have one cat under the desk and the other ON my desk.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:29:38 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Quanah is here but IBLK is not in here
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:30:07 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Under the desk is Tati's favorite place, but she hates it when I move my feet aroun.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:30:09 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I forget the name. a PBS special, IIRC
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:30:13 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> If you're one of the Beatles fans, look up the Powerpuff Girls episode "Meet the Beat-alls." Loads of good in-jokes
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:30:33 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I'll have to look at that one Bethane
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:30:34 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Bee, did you ever see the documentary about George?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:31:48 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Maybe that what I was thinking about. 2020 or 2021?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:32:00 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Paul was here for SXSW a few years ago, but I didn't go. Bad crowds.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:32:07 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> Hi y'all
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:32:16 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Hi Catherine
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:32:20 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Hi CW!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:32:21 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, CW
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:32:31 PM EDT] <derynifank> Hi Catherine
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:32:42 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Hi Catherine Windsor
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:32:57 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Bee, it's a documentary called Living in the Material World. It's about 4 hours long and it's by Martin Scorsese.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:33:01 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hi Catherine.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:33:02 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hello Catherine
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:33:07 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> I'm between meetings so I'm here only briefly.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:33:17 PM EDT] <KK> Hi, Catherine.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:33:19 PM EDT] <The_Bee> no, Bethane, not that one.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:33:35 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> Hi KK
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:33:42 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Carys says "Thank you" to derynifank because you reminded me that I hadn't given her her L-lysine supplement and Greenies yet today.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:34:06 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Does she like the Greenies? I might try some for IBLK
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:34:08 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Dmitri sends his purrs
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:34:21 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yes, she loves them. She thinks the L-lysine chew is a treat too.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:34:39 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Potpie and Frankie and Shelly all send hisses, and Mousie is just hiding upstairs.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:34:42 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I don't know about those (L-lysine?)
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:34:46 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Give Dmitri and the Grand Duchess some petting please, Shiral.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:34:49 PM EDT] <derynifank> you're welcome,carys
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:35:06 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Tati is getting lots of pettings under the table.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:35:19 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Oops, I guess that sounded a little "red light district."
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:35:22 PM EDT] <derynifank> Hisses, not kisses?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:35:41 PM EDT] <DesertRose> It's an amino acid that helps support the immune system. A lot of cats that spent time outdoors (like rescued strays such as Her Serene Feline Majesty) have a relatively harmless form of the herpes virus that can make their eyes get gunky and sometimes make them a little sniffly/sneezy.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:35:42 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> No one knows what goes on under the table
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:35:53 PM EDT] <DesertRose> The L-lysine helps their immune system fight those symptoms.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:36:08 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Oh, I'll have to look for some.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:36:13 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hisses to the other kitties ('cause mine are idiots) and kisses to the people
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:37:00 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> There's a neighbor cat that likes to sit outside my front door. Dmitri puts on a big show of hissing.....but from inside the house.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:37:09 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> Cooper sends his snores. He's asleep on my chest.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:37:28 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> skritchies from me to all the kittes and puppies
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:37:36 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Sweet baby!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:37:44 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Should be available in PetSmart or maybe even Walmart. There are several brands; the bag I currently have are Optix brand, but the bag that's coming in next month's Chewy shipment is 21st Century Essential Pet.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:38:00 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I'll have to look.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:38:20 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Have any of you heard of something called Nosorb? I 'm supposed to remove the litter from Melantha's box and replace it with the Nosorb.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:38:36 PM EDT] <DesertRose> No idea.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:38:42 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I've got to find a job or I won't have any more Chewy deliveries. Thinking of doing delivery
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:38:45 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> never heard of it
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:38:58 PM EDT] <derynifank> nope, what is it?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:39:05 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Never heard of Nosorb
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:39:10 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Oh dear, houndmistress
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:39:22 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Then I'm supposed to collect and refrigerate her urine.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:39:28 PM EDT] <KK> I've been using KittyPoo club for Gus. Really tackles the smell.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:39:39 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Yes, I had one in Feb but then we had all that mess & Lou broke his arm, so I had to drop out of training.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:40:08 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> I've had a cat that used it, Bee. He was diabetic and that was the easiest way to get a urine sample.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:40:08 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I've had good luck with several of the no smell litters.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:40:21 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I know why the vet wants a urine sample to make sure Melantha's one remaining kidney is working okay.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:40:42 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hope she stays OK
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:40:55 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Hope you find something good, HoundMistress
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:41:01 PM EDT] <The_Bee> That makes sense, Catherine.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:41:04 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Thanks, Jerusha!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:41:06 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Anyone have any luck getting kitties to not mark their territory?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:41:25 PM EDT] <KK> Good luck on that!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:41:25 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> So far, IBLK doesn't go anywhere but the litter box
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:41:32 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Fortunately I have cats who are very polite about using the box
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:42:02 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> I have two males (both fixed, go figure) who occasional get in a snit and start marking things, and I have to have the lysol wipes and orange stuff on hand until they chill out.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:42:03 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Aren't they neutered?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:42:29 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> We had a spayed female at one time who marked
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:42:37 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Carys is very good about using the box for elimination, but she marks everything in the world with her face. I have to scrap cat-face-oil off the ornamental bits of my baker's rack, plus any convenient door jambs or corners or anything else at her height.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:42:39 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Bee, they sure are! they figured it out anyway
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:42:59 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Oh, they all do that face marking
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:43:05 PM EDT] <DesertRose> *scrape, not scrap.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:43:48 PM EDT] <derynifank> Mine doesn't as long as you scritvh his chin on demand
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:43:54 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> My two don't spray or Mark, but one has dominance issues so they fight.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:44:21 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Yeah.....I hear some earsplitting arguments now and then.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:44:31 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Sorry to hear that, CW
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:44:45 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Do they scream at each other lilke little girls?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:44:49 PM EDT] Join revanne () has joined this channel.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:44:57 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Hi Revanne
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:44:59 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Hi revanne!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:44:59 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hi revanne
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:02 PM EDT] <revanne> Hi
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:04 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Mostly Tati complains loudly that Dmitri is bullying her.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:04 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> BRB, Q smells like he needs to go out
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:06 PM EDT] <derynifank> Hi revanne, good to see you
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:08 PM EDT] <KK> Hi, Revanne!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:08 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Hi Revanne
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:10 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hello Revanne
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:14 PM EDT] <bynw> hi revanne
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:20 PM EDT] <revanne> Poor Dimitri
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:21 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> hI, Revanne
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:34 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Dmitri rules the house with an iron paw
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:42 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> No screams, just deep throated growls before one goes for the throat.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:51 PM EDT] <revanne> Sorry poor Tati that should be
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:45:56 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> Hi Revanne.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:46:43 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> The other morning I came downstairs after one such "argument" and Tati emerged from beneath the China cabinet and scurried upstairs.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:47:10 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> So hard to have 2 that don't get along.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:47:31 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> And then an hour later, I'll find them both on my bed washing one another's faces
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:47:47 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Silly kitties!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:47:54 PM EDT] <revanne> Like any siblings
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:48:04 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> That must be it.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:48:05 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> I'm just glad they work it out.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:48:17 PM EDT] <revanne> Without the face washing usually
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:48:19 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> Face washing is usually the prelude to a fight.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:48:21 PM EDT] <derynifank> I can pick on you but no one else can
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:48:26 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> hums "We can work it out....
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:48:32 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> lol
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:48:34 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> LOL Shiral
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:49:19 PM EDT] <revanne> Beautiful full moon here
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:49:19 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> But every now and the "working it out" can get louds
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:49:21 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> loud
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:49:30 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> At least with my two. You'd never know they were litter mates, a bonded pair. 🙄
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:50:17 PM EDT] <KK> I'm going to have to cut this short, guys. I'm starving; usually eat before chat, but got caught up in finding things this afternoon. Bynw, do we do Zoom next week?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:50:25 PM EDT] <revanne> The two kitties we has that were litter mates were inseparable.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:50:31 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Glad to see you for a bit KK
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:50:48 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> take care @KK
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:50:49 PM EDT] <KK> Slowly settling back into a routine.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:50:58 PM EDT] <revanne> Glad I was able to pop in to say hi. Don't starve!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:50:58 PM EDT] <derynifank> Glad you came KK Have a good week
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:51:00 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Moves are so disrupting

[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:51:09 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Routine often gets dropped in a move
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:51:22 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Nighters, KK
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:51:24 PM EDT] <KK> Chat next week at 3? 4?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:51:25 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Have a good week, KK. Hope order continues to emerge from chaos
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:51:39 PM EDT] <The_Bee> ZOOM chat next Sunday?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:51:43 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Isn't it usually 3:00?
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:51:45 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Oh, it's first Sunday next week!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:51:53 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Should be
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:51:59 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Is that EDT
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:52:00 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> I know! I thought April just STARTED!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:52:00 PM EDT] <KK> 3 it is. I couldn't remember.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:52:06 PM EDT] <The_Bee> 3:00 Eastern time.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:52:08 PM EDT] <derynifank> Usually 3PM
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:52:16 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> The year is accelerating
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:52:27 PM EDT] <bynw> 3pm Eastern
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:52:32 PM EDT] <bynw> for zoom
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:52:52 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Can you get in through KIwi
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:52:58 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> Better than last May, I swear that month lasted 10 years!!!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:53:16 PM EDT] <KK> The year is evaporating. But yes, better than last year.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:53:18 PM EDT] <bynw> HoundMistress, you can only get Zoom through Zoom
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:53:19 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Yes. it's a lot more hopeful than things were last April
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:53:23 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Bynw usually emails the link.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:53:24 PM EDT] <KK> See you all next week, I hope.
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:53:27 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Last year was crazy
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:53:38 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Have a good week, KK!
[Sunday, April 25, 2021] [7:53:45 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Bye!
