I think it was the images that resulted from the Google search on a certain male bathing suit that uses the minimal amount of material possible while still providing cover. Ahh...I missed that part of the post. Tough to keep up on that thread with everyone having lots of fun.

Three of my long-time buddies and I have gotten together every year since about 1992 for the first weekend of March Madness. Started out in Las Vegas, then when we got too old to hang there for four days we've usually met in Kansas City (where I went to law school and two of the gang live). This year it's at my old roommate's beach house in South Carolina. For us, it's not about the bracket anymore as much as we pretty much bet every game...and often have 2 or 3 bets on each game (over/under, first half, full game, etc 🤣). It's four days of non-stop basketball, golf, and just a little bit of drinking. Bye Bye Purdue.Even though I had them in my Final 4 I am so happy that they lost to FDU. I have been a FDU fan for more than 60 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it's not too late, and the b'day wishes are gratefully received, as well as those of not the "usual suspects" as @Vibe, @ownedbypets and @voyager70. Many thanks also to @Arzeena, @bobmacliberty, @helen haywood, @Ozark_Kid, @Momof3gurlz, @Keksie and @reallyitsmema 🌷 I don’t do the Happy B-D, happy Anniversary, happy whatever stuff. However for Dani, I will make an exception, sorry to be late, but happy birthday to a person I wish to meet before I die. jc 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get an email every day with various free offerings. I currently have over 10,000 books and I haven't paid for a single one! These are current books from lesser-known authors that are free for a day (or until a certain number are claimed), often to get one interested in a new author so you'll go back and actually purchase more books. The service I use is Freebooksy, but there are several different services available. You let them know which genres you're interested in when you sign up (romance, non-fiction, mystery, etc.), and they send you that day's offerings in those genres. You can also just go to the website and look up that day's freebies, but the once-a-day newsletter email is easiest for me. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite honestly, I am not sure if people are adhering to their check in times anymore. No one cared, and no one checked, what time you were scheduled for in Ft.

For $10 a month you can borrow up to 10 books at a time. When you finish one you return it and can then get a new one. DH reads a LOT and it’s a great deal for us. Not all authors are part of it, but enough that there’s always something to read. Last year they had an offer for a year for $99. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't even find a way to change it. I'm thinking that email address is what defines my account and if I want a different email address, I'll need to set up a new account. Nope. The only way to change your email address here on CC is to email one of The Powers That Be and ask them to change it for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can check in the next morning, get an arrival time and just show up when we want to. Correct? Correct, Key folks get to go in before any of the check-in times, so it doesn't matter what time you get assigned. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will probably be the 1st time we will not try to board the earliest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ozark_Kid Posted March 18, 2023 #88316 Share Posted March 18, 2023 @Sunshine3601 We were talking about starting seeds. After this Monday the temperature here is supposed to stay above 40⁰. Tuesday I will plant my cold plants, broccoli, Brussel sprouts and Kohlrabi. Friday lettuce. I moved some of the lettuce from the 2.5" pots to 5" pots. The trays with the 5" pots hold 8 and the trays with 2.5" pots 32. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted March 18, 2023 #88317 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Went to another great show tonight The Orchestra which members are all ex ELO members, loads of other great cover groups and other acts main problem is there will be a few shows at the same time so you must pick and choose. Had breakfast is suite restaurant, lunch in sushi and dinner in Italian with a nice bottle of duckhorn merlot , will post some pictures later. We had a nice conversation with a couple staying in the penthouse, earlier they said they will miss next years cruise since they had a wedding in Ireland, today there leaning to skipping that to attend cruise. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keksie Posted March 18, 2023 #88322 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Voom question. We have it for one device. I know that means that only one of our devices can be on at a time. We just take turns at night checking our email. For our phones: Can the device that is on receive texts from home? I know we can use wifi calling to make a call. Can the device that is not on at the time still be in airplane mode and use the app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the device that is currently connected can send and receive texts from home. It can also do Wi-Fi calling if you set it up before leaving home. The other phone can access the app at anytime, by being logged into the ship Wi-Fi. when the second phone connects to Voom, it will automatically knock the other one off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only receive” iMessage” text messages when connected to wi-fi in airplane modes. Text messages from non-iphone users don’t come through until I turn cellular back on. Not sure how non-apple devices would work if that would be different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
