Arnold on a motorcycle with a shotgun

So sorry about the RA. A good friend of mine who lives in Arlington, TX, got hit by that, too. All of a sudden. No warning, no precursors, no family history. Just woke up one day and couldn't move. Couldn't put on her rings, pull her hair back in a pony tail. or get up out of a chair once she sat down. It was hideous. Luckily she had an adult child at home who could take care of the cooking, the house, the dog, etc. She had a hard time getting a diagnosis beyond auto-immune disorder. She responded to cortisone but couldn't keep taking it forever. She's on something else now, injections, which help but don't cure. She's in her early 60s. Doing somewhat better now but has flares as you do. Such a mystery. Best of luck to you.

Best wishes to you, too. Awful disease.

The new Clue game went very Hollywood.

All it takes for a wonkmeet to happen is for someone to decide to make one, and then flog the shit out of it on the board.

Why don't Wonkette M-Us happen in Berkeley/Oakland? WHY? (It's really pretty here in late February: gentle weather, flowering trees everywhere, songbirds everywhere.)

Because you didn't schedule one. I only helped to put on the PDX WonkMeet. The rest are up to you.

My dad always wore a beard, whenever he'd trim it it looked to me like his head shrank.

Where is the amazon affiliate link? I accidentally used someone elses link and need to cleanse myself.

I keep looking at different information sites that say the park is closed on Sunday. TRUE? That would be awkward. Any straight poop on this? Otherwise we’re going to be eating those cakes we like on the sidewalk. I plan to get there between two and three, depending on traffic. Have my fingers crossed.
