Re: What book tracking app are you using?

Oh, one thing I'd like to start adding to each book's entry (now that we're in a different house from when I first started using the app) is which room/bookcase the book currently resides. I'm pretty...

For books, I've used a piece of software on my computer (and they have a phone app too) called Book Collectorz. They also have an app for cataloguing games, movies, music, and comics. I use only the...

Also, I assume you know that ELO means Electric Light Orchestra. And yes, they were the only band like this back then.

There are four of us going, all of us old enough to have loved them back in the 1970s. My favorites are Mr. Blue Sky (you may have heard that one--it's been used in commercials and other...

Re: Broke my wrist!!!

Sorry about the PT not being fun. :( And yes, McDonald's basic coffee is pretty darn good. And cheap! Around here, any size (even the gargantuan one) runs about a dollar. All the McDonald's stores...

Re: 3 Body Problem (Netflix)

Just bought the Kindle edition of the first book. Sometimes I prefer to at least start watching a series before reading the book(s). It was that way with Game of Thrones. I'd started the first book...

Anything that's on the Apple TV platform that I wouldn't be able to stream/find elsewhere. I started Ted Lasso a while back so I should continue with that, for sure!

Re: Whats the weather like today where you live?

After hitting 70 a bunch of times in the past week here in Pittsburgh, we'll be lucky to hit 40 today. Oh, and we woke up to snow-covered cars and grass (but it didn't stick to sidewalks and roads,...

Now I'm gonna have to give it a watch. :D
