@jeanne-mayell Yes...I saw in yesterday I think....pretty much to the point!
just thinking that the next time a hurricane is headed to FL, we should name it something like Hurricane LesBiGayTransQueerAndOrQuestioningPius(+)? Make Mr. DeSranwrap say it
I think @unk-p is coming because I can hear him humming something.
Hmming Both Sides Now. In Cambodian, of course!.Here is
Dengue Fever:
@unk-p Yes! NOAA should put "Hurricane Gay" on the name list. It *is* a perfectly legitimate ladies' name.
Also "Les" (short for Leslie or Lester) would be good.
@ana I grew up with a lovely girl named Gay Swift. would be an appropriate hurricane name if they used her whole name. Hurricanes are now rapidly escalating at the last minute due to warmer water.
She’s an artist now.
Speaking of governor death sentence, noticed an older prediction someone made a while back that his home would be deluged by a hurricane. Does anyone know if that happened? Would love love love to know.
@jeanne-mayell I looked up info on ds' residences.. Apparently at this time he does not own any homes and resides only in the governor's mansion. (see https://www.news4jax.com/news/florida/2021/11/05/governors-former-house-included-in-booming-housing-market/)
He grew up in Dunedin (near Clearwater on the west coast) and for a time lived in Ponte Vedra and Palm Coast, both of which are located on the northeast Atlantic coast. Any of those former residences could have been impacted by Ian, but to what extent, I don't know.
@ana Thank you for all that info on DeSantis' homeownership. You satisfied my detective self. Do I believe that the man's net worth is that low? Unless someone here knows otherwise, my thought is that he's too ambitious and too much of a fossil fuel, profit-industry sycophant not to be profiting. He has got some big GOP money supporting him, protecting his information, because that is how they protect their investment.
Hey, is anyone up here tonight? Have you seen this Chevron commercial?

It really makes you go "wow" doesn't it?
I LOVE it!!
@jeanne-mayell yes, that, um, "commercial " was killer!
Oh, btw, Barbara Kingsolver has a new book coming out this month:

So since it is fall, for those chilling in the lounge, how many are having a pumpkin flavored drink? I just bought an almond pumpkin creamer for my daughter who doesn't drink dairy products. They also had an almond/coconut milk pumpkin creamer and an almond milk pumpkin egg nog.
Is there anyone who is "middle of the road" on pumpkin drinks or are we all on one extreme or the other? I like pumpkin things, even make my own pumpkin pie, but I don't eagerly anticipate pumpkin items. I might order an occasional pumpkin drink. Well, I do LOVE a local restaurant that makes a to die for autumn pumpkin soup. It is incredible.
@lovendures i want pumpkin curry, extra spicy. Next time i make it, it will have habanero peppers- the orange ones that look like mini pumpkins, while listening to punk! rock!
