Don't know. Just seems to be that if you really had built a city on rock and roll, it's not the kind of thing people would need to be reminded about.

Color me skeptical.
 
I was reading an article about the US Navy's deployment to the Eastern Mediterranean, and one of the ships is the USS Carter Hall. Naturally, I thought, "We named a ship after Hawkman?" :lol:

Hmph. This new allegedly specialised glue for footwear does glue things.
 
Nope. It managed to glue separate sneaker parts back into place (this will require testing) and also my fingers to the sneakers and to other fingers and even to themselves. I was half-expecting that, because there's a warning in the package.

The short answer would have been Buenos Aries. :D
 
It's Scorpio at the moment, but sure.
 
Eye appointment today... no damage due to diabetes, but the vision in my left eye has become really blurry over the past year.

Quick, in-office laser surgery to the rescue (hopefully). I have to go back in 3 weeks for another checkup.

This sounds very much like normal (super)glue to me and even more so if the sneaker parts go Fleetwood Mac shortly.
 
Oh yes, the normality of it made it thoroughly expectable.

What would the Fleetwood Mac behaviour be? I am not sure I follow.
 
Aah, sorry - that'd be L.Buckingham's iconic "Go Your Own Way".

Spoiler :



That accompanied by the fact that the internal harmony of the band really wasn't peaking at the time seemed like a suitable obscure pop reference to your situation :)

that politicians will let blood enemies of their countries attack in Pearl Harbour style "unexpected" days of infamy SHOULD be a random thought . Because it is treason in so many countries where the requirement to prove charges is made to lapse . So , uhmm , people want to ignore reminders that they could be taken advantage off ? Yeah , another must be random bit of thinking . Do watch your back for Mossad , too .
 
Let’s Disguise Hearing Aids

I want hearing aids that look like AirPods so I can look cool and hip instead of old and failing (“The New Etiquette for Earbuds,” Personal Journal, Oct. 31). This has the added benefit that when I say “What?” people will think I didn’t hear them because I’m listening to some engrossing new music or cutting-edge podcast. I have a feeling that a great many younger people who wear AirPods are going to need hearing aids long before their grandparents did, meaning this idea will become even more popular over time. The younger generation will be able to discreetly switch to AirPod-looking hearing aids and no one will know they’re going deaf.

more random events . Some bombs an hospital somewhere ; 1000 cancer patients need care ; since it was built by this country it is only natural for them to be brought here . Some kills a lot of parents ; orphans to be brought here . Some living in a palace which is not called a palace already declared that 85 millions or 102 or so millions with refugees are not enough ; more people are necessary . Some country's foreign minister cold shouldered because he was met by vice governor of Ankara or whatever in the airport , but strangely , yes , he declares progress in regards to refugees . On a day Jordan declares ethnic cleansing as a casus belli , declaration of war and stuff . Strange , isn't it ? r16 understands you well , who are strangely short of understanding on given days .

Or actual AirPods will build this functionality in. So you'll just press a button to switch modes. With better sensing tech and AI, they'll start to do it automatically, the way our phones now pause the playback on Spotify when you get a phonecall, or adjust the brightness of the screen according to the ambient light levels. When somebody's talking to you, the AirPods of the future will automatically switch over to 'hearing aid' mode. They'll also adjust the volume as needed, and filter out background noise. They might also be helpful for people with tinnitus.

I bet there is an app for that already, and if not there is good money to be made. It sounds really easy as long as the phone's microphone is good enough.
