Rare richwmn Posted November 5, 2020 Author #3 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Well, things look different on Cruise Critic this morning. All of my formatting commands didn't work so I had to re do them. The option to edit is now under the three dots along with report. Hope everyone is well, have a great day! 13 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted November 5, 2020 #7 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Thank you for the daily, Rich. I'll pass on the Stout, salute our Red Heads, and sort of make dinner most nights. I love both the quotes, Sausage and Grits Lasagna sounds nice but I won't do it. My alternate meal suggestion is Pinnacle Caesar Salad, Filet Mignon, and Baked Alaska, as served in the Prinsendam Pinnacle Grill October 5, 2017. https://solocabinchallenge.files.wordpress.com/2017/11/dishes051.jpg Today's care list: Mrs Vmax with radiation looming Caregiver Gsel and her DH battling Alzheimers California Wildfires–may progress continue Patience and healing for the USA and Krazy Kruisers and Joe Today's Celebrations and shoutouts: Front Line Health Care Workers Teachers and school workers Fall colors Progress on California Wildfires Ballot counters Virtual school–Our fogged in Eastern shore is doing online classes today rather than cancelling the morning. And NextOne’s DH out of the hospital. Roy Those LONG signatures are a real pain in the new format. May be time to start ignoring people who insist on them. 14 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted November 5, 2020 #8 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Thanks for the Daily, Rich and our morning smile 🙂 I would LOVE to celebrate Men Make Dinner Day but I’m not holding my breath 😉 I was LOL at your first quote & honestly that 2nd quote is ever so true. I think I’ll pass on the meal suggestion for today - not a grit fan. My eyes took a double take when I got onto CC this morning. Thanks @richwmn for the heads up on editing 🙂. Ugh that your format didn’t work for your post. That’s extra work for you 😞. I sure hope my format for the Future Cruise Listing works tomorrow. 🤞 @rafinmdI totally agree with you on the really long signatures. The full signature wasn’t showing when they were long until CC’s format changed again. Well, you all know that deer are a thorn in my side here. Mostly we have hoards of does, fawns and young bucks. The older bucks are rarely seen. My neighbour got a wonderful shot of a magnificent one in her back yard yesterday. And, because things are tense for a lot of our CC friends today while they wait for election results, here’s a little smile: Prayers for everyone on Roy’s care list & for all those that need them and, a bit toast to everyone on his Celebratory/Shout Out list. Have a good Thursday everyone. Stay safe and don’t forget your masks.😷 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare VMax1700 Posted November 5, 2020 #9 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Morning all! @rafinmd Roy, how about a shoutout for the new format on CC. It is so much easier to read. I have signatures turned off, so that doesn't bother me. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it already afternoon for you now? BTW, I added a help topic about long signatures.

Seasick Sailor Posted November 5, 2020 #13 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Good morning Rich. Thanks for working over time in getting our Daily out. The new format will take a bit of getting used to. Roy, I was able to hide all signatures. You have a choice to click on an individual, or all signatures. Thank you for the prayers and cheers. Still worried about the final vote tally going crazy. No thanks on the drink of the day, but thanks summer for posting. Good morning Daily-ites and sisters Deeni and Ann. Hoping today is beautiful for you. I do not think the menu suggestion would go over in this home. But a steak can be in the future for dinner. We go to get our drivers license, so may stop and get fish on the way back for lunch. I'm nursing about 100 mosquito bites. Had friends over for cocktails and pupu's and it was a beautiful evening, except the bugs. Citronella candles and bug off didn't bother those hungry suckers. Ugh!! Wishing everyone a wonderful Thursday. Stay safe, call a loved one, stay away from flesh eating bugs. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cat shepard Posted November 5, 2020 #19 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Thank you for today’s Daily, Rich!I am sorry to hear that the changes made more work for you. I wonder I we are celebrating stout, the animal, or stout the drink? The animal is so adorable, it should be celebrated! Great combo of days! Morning Dailyites & my Sisters! It is another red wine today. Thank you for keeping our lists so carefully, Roy! Love both quotes! Today’s drink does not appeal, though I would take a sip of someone’s- if they offered! I will also pass on the meal. @kazu- Jacqui, that pic of the buck! Wow! @Seasick Sailor, if you apply rubbing alcohol to any type of itching bite, or exposure to poison ivy, oak, sumac - as soon as possible, you can really reduce the itching. I had a running battle with poison ivy and mosquitoes when I lived in Maryland, so I would always travel out to the yard with a bottle of rubbing alcohol with me. Prayers for all who need our support! Cheers to all who are celebrating. Stay well everyone! Count every vote! ****** I do not believe I have ever experienced a Tannat before! Not sure if they are unique to Uruguay, but this one hails from there. It has excellent ratings for all released vintages. And its online price starts at $14.99. Has any one ever has this red wine before? Thoughts? #41 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2017 This powerful Tannat is elegant with aromas of red fruits such as cherries and strawberries, black plums, tobacco and black chocolate on a spicy background. It is juicy and fresh on the palate, and has a full-body with a lingering finish balanced with a touch of oak. WS90 Wine Spectator: Well-sculpted, with dense, rich flavors of dark plum, dried blackberry and dark currant that are supported by firm tannins. Christmas pudding and rich savory notes show on the finish. Drink now through 2022. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Himself Posted November 5, 2020 #22 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Good motning Rich and all DAILYITES: In my youth, I was a redhead. The hair went brown in my twenties and early thirties. I am past 80 and itis still mostly brown. It is nice to know where the fleet is in this 30 Day pause that has lasted almost eight months. Thanks to all who have posted on this thread on this November day. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
