What SNOWFLAKE wants to know......................

 If your wife, girlfriend, significant other, or some lady you are dating, asks you........... How do I look in this? Are you gonna tell her the truth, dance around the question, or lie to her and tell she looks great in that? Where this idea came from: SNOWFLAKE   Mod 2 hours ago I lie. She asks me, does this look good on me? Am I gonna be honest? Hell no! Just_PrimalSoup (aka Susan)    SNOWFLAKE   2 hours ago That's where  finesse  come in. You must  finesse  that kind of thing. 😉 It can be done. Never mind the finessing part. Be honest. Would YOU be honest and tell your lady (or gentleman) that they look great in that when they look anything but? I mean, how honest do you want to be on THAT question? Hasn't THAT question been a  universal dilemma ever since the first caveman brought home a woman? Or the first woman brought home a man (gotta be fair here).   Just_PrimalSoup (aka Susan)    SNOWFLAKE   2 minutes ago "Dear heart, if you like it,  I  like it. Because I like

Wheatfield with crows Vincent van Gogh. Wheatfield with crows. July 1890. Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam. For some time i've had Wheatfield with crows by Vincent van Gogh as my wallpaper so I see a simulacron of its brilliance every day. The sight of it makes me happy; but there is a problem. Should it? Vincent had a poor life, always short of money and failing as a bookseller, teacher, evangelical minister  and at pretty much whatever he tried. Even in his late life as an artist he only sold two paintings.  In 1886 he moved to Paris and then in February 1898 he arrived in Arles, where the brilliant light of Provence inspired his last two years and left the legacy which we can see today.  Wheatfield with crows was painted in July 1890, probably his last painting, a few days before Vincent walked into a wheatfield and shot himself in the stomach, dying a couple of days later. The question is : does this painting presage his death? When we look at it we see a cornfield with three tracks

Sancta:

  What to know about the opera with explicit lesbian sex, live piercings, and naked roller-skating nuns Photo by Matthias Baus/ The German opera's use of explicit sex and real blood caused 18 audience members to require medical treatment in one weekend. Sancta  features an all-women cast portraying nuns, following its lead, Susanna, as she discovers her sexuality. The show's  description  states, "Some aspects of the evening may cause discomfort for certain individuals, and for others, they may even be retraumatizing. The focus of the evening is on spirituality and sexuality, but also on criticism of religion and a critical examination of religious and societal violence." An early scene depicts Susanna having sex with a crucifix, and a later one shows another nun swallowing a crucifix sword. The show also includes Jesus, portrayed by a woman, who sings tracks by Eminem and at one point spanks a half-naked nun. In one scene, a piece of a performer's flesh is cut an

  Bunny needs to send a travel report each month by mail.  There is a post box near the schools, but Bunny will go out of his way to visit the post box near the station or by the post office.  It is an active box, but for some reason, would rather use a post box not so isolated. Stupid?  Yes.  But keep on doing it. Any examples of such on your side.   J.P. Bunny

  KipSmithers Word Chain Game. You post an original word in the comment section. People post something to respond. And somebody can respond to that...and so forth...and so forth...and so forth... The responses can be a pun, the opposite, the first word that pops into your head, etc. An example: Somebody posts the word "polo". Somebody responds with "Marco". Somebody responds with "Asia". And so on...   I like this idea for a lazy Sunday (in my neck of the woods).  Let’s see if it flies.  I’ll start the game with (see below)… (by PrimalSoup) (P.S.
