 ML>> A year or three ago he asked us to use bbs.docsnetservices.com
 ML>> instead of that address, so that's what I changed to.
 NB>> Yeah, I'd changed to that, but then changed to the new one when he
 NB>> mentioned that we needed to change to it, due to some sort of issues
 NB>> with the other...
 ML> Was there a bulletin that I missed?

As I recall, it was in a message to All in Area 2 on the bbs... 
 
 ML>> Lower threshold.
 NB>> Probably frustration as well...  We probably all have lower thresholds
 NB>> for annoyance as we are getting older...  ;)
 ML> Don't we all. Right now I'm dealing with physical body things
 ML> - Glen in the hospital, Lilli's irritable bowel being more
 ML> irritable than usual, anxiety doing that to you, and my arms
 ML> hurting all night from catching Glen when he went unconscious
 ML> on the street.

Ow... I can sympathize... between helping deal with Mommy's recovery,
and developing gout again (in my left foot this time)... the latter
thankfully responding to my stepping up the supplements that chased it
away before and had been keeping it at bay at a lower dose till now...
My theory is that stress is the prime reason for the occurrence...
 
 ML>> Who do we have if Doc goes down - is Mark still a viable
 ML>> possibility? Or I could use Dale's as the primary, but
 ML>> I don't think we set up my account with that in mind.
 NB>> For just dependable Fido, there are a number of options probably...
 ML> So now I have a bunch of things going, more than before -
 ML> Doc's still the primary, with Sean down for another month
 ML> maybe, Janis's and Dale's as checks, and the possibility of
 ML> pointing off Mark sometime in the future.

Sean is back up, but from what I'm seeing there may be a few bugs to
clear out of the system still... ;)

 ML>> The Thai, Indonesians, Malaysians who left their country probably
 ML>> thought they were leaving many of their native tastes behind, and
 ML>> they had little hope that they would encounter the more luxurious
 ML>> ones again (durians are not an everyday food, and the owners of
 ML>> durian plantations have armed guards patrolling the orchards to
 ML>> prevent theft).
 NB>> Except this is considered the land of plenty... and when they started
 NB>> earning wages, they may have begun to see some impossible or unlikely
 NB>> things as attainable after all... :)
 ML> Not sure. The first focus of someone coming to the land of
 ML> plenty is getting a house in a neighborhood with decent schools.
 ML> It's when people are well established that the urges for luxuries
 ML> such as durians and violin lessons can be indulged.

Many of them have been here now for a generation or so... more than long
enough to become well established...  :)

 ML>> I'm not a sauce person where barbecue is concerned. A big
 ML>> deal was made about Aaron Franklin and his quite savory
 ML>> product not needing sauce, as if it were the first time
 ML>> brisket had ever been cooked properly. Any brisket cooked
 ML>> carefully to temperature is not going to need much if any
 ML>> sauce, same with ribs.
 NB>> Without having had the exposure to proper barbecue, I didn't know that
 NB>> before hearing about it here in the echo...  Sauce has almost always
 NB>> been a negative point for me with BBQ... since it tends to not sit all
 NB>> that well for me...  :)  Nice to know that it isn't what makes it
 NB>> "Q"....  ;)
 ML> Oh, there are good bbq sauces, but they are not necessary to
 ML> the enjoyment of good meat, nohow, contrariwise.

Good to know... I'll keep that in mind...  :)

... The truth does not change according to our ability to stomach it.
