Ok

Today I used my new bike computer. It works by gps. It can report 166 different stats. I know that is hard to believe. I also have an armband heart monitor to work with it but it was not charged yet. On the screen I had it set so it shows the speed, the average speed, the max speed and the distance traveled. All I really need is speed, average speed and distance to track wheth...

My best friend when I was a teenager was born on July 11th - so was one of my grandmothers.

It was only after my 66th birthday on July 27th that I started easily increasing my distance.

I also turned 66 last month. Interesting world.

Waaay past 57! Something like a thousand, I think.

That could have been deadly. I'm glad you said no. In humidity, the body can't evaporate the sweat to cool you off.

I just heard 80+ on the radio. Some speculation on FF about hundreds of lives lost.

Fires coming the day following my mentioning Mike's experience standing guard at Hickam AFB.

I just heard 80, also. And thousands still missing is what I heard yesterday.

Just north of the place was Gravity Hill ...

I know that area, but it probably doesn't look like it did when I was a teenager, half a century ago.

Today I rode 10 miles! By the end of August I hope to do 20 miles and 50 by the end of September. Wish me luck.

That's awesome!

I don't know. I want to say yes, to support you and the number 57, so that's what I'll do.

For lambs. It looks like the same thing my first ex used to neuter dogs.

I've often wondered why the scriptures say to believe in the name. Other places, where it says to believe in Christ, I can understand. I'm still trying to figure out "the name" stuff - unless saying his name causes devils to flee? (No matter what language you use, the devils know who you are referring to.)

And the Lord came unto me and commanded me that I should testify of his name - That during these dark times that will come upon us, we must trust in our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the only one that can guide us through the darkness and save us both temporarily and spiritually. Be quick to heed his glorious spirit. He comes to save us.

I can't take it and it's only 93 degrees with 48% humidity. Why is it so hot? How are people in Arizona and Texas dealing with 112 degree weather? People in Arizona (and maybe northwestern Texas?) have dry heat. 100 degrees F with 10% humidity is easier to take than 80 with 90% humidity. I visited Texas some years ago - the humid part - and it was really difficult even though ...

So cool! Thanks for sharing that.

I learned the word when I took a French class years ago.

I see a diacritical mark over the e. Strange that autocorrect thought that was right. Autocorrect is strange and totally wrong a lot, but this is the first time I've heard of it acting as if someone was writing in French or Spanish. For example, it was as if you wrote something like Mama, but it thought you were writing Mamá

Hm Weird.

So there's a secret scarlet thread club over there?

When I said Ms, I was referring to M, plural because there are probably a lot of users whose handle starts with M. Interesting about the scarlet threads. Weird no BND or MS posts in this thread that mentions scarlet thread. Will try Scarlet paired with Threads. :idea: Searching Scarlet Society also yielded no joy. Maybe some posts were deleted.
