From jsailing at netonecom.net Mon Nov 3 16:47:05 2008 From: jsailing at netonecom.net (Jasmine Sailing) Date: Mon Nov 3 16:49:19 2008 Subject: [Cpaod-discuss] dentists Message-ID: <490F7159.7050600@netonecom.net> Got a tooth extracted today. It was to be expected... old problem molar, already had two root canals over the years. Tended to be THE tooth I use, and therefore tended to have problem after problem after problem (all of which means I won't be using a tooth for the next few months, should be entertaining). So I'm lying there listening to all of the dialogue, which turned into something like "Have to get some bone out" "Oh, that root chunk just fell over there" "I need to cut off this chunk of tissue, those scissors would be good" (segue into post-care instructions, cigarette pack hanging out of shirt pocket) "Now, don't smoke a cigarette until at least tomorrow". (Jasmine, naturally, thinks:) "Hm. Yeah. Good comedy routine there. I'm going to go smoke a cigarette now." One would think they could at least come up with some good code phrases, especially if they don't want you ambling off to smoke a cigarette 2 seconds after your oral surgery. Like, say, "RC alert, right side of tongue" and "Hand me the Big S for this CoT clean-up". Well, it's a thought. -- Te wo Tsunaide '08: A Pair Go Tournament Saturday, December 6th, in Boulder Colorado http://cyberpsychos.netonecom.net/PairGo Also home of the Te wo Tsunaide photo archive!

If I stub my toe, I will curse the Democrats for it. ;) After some good sessions of blaming the Democrats, someone will notice that they had the majority in the House before (plus Senate equality) and think "Maybe it was their fault all along...". What should be interesting is how much of the voter philosophy revolved around bad economy, which traditionally sent votes in the opposite direction. I have been blinking in some confusion about the "tax and spend liberal wanna-be socialist" (heh, yes, I DO occasionally listen to conservative talk shows) major party being the current hope for "no more taxes and a stable economy". So... call me officially curious. It'll be interesting to see how this develops. I'm one of those tax and spend liberals who thinks Democrats look more like Rush Limbaugh than socialists, so I voted for plenty of creative ways to charge me more. I was bummed about 58 failing. *sigh* (As did pretty much everything involving money in the state, but Boulder managed to pass a renewable energy refund option -- good for them -- and Denver of course said a big yes to money for schools while the most of the rest of the state said a big no to the same.) Not that I voted yes on every "charge me now!" option. I voted against the highway one because it would've diverted funds from things I care more about.

Wholesome gay couplings lead to less unwholesome reproduction of unwholesome humans. Hmm. California passed a gay marriage ban. Shame on you, California, may the cnidocytes and the litigating activists smite you ASAP. Colorado (okay, it was Boulder of course) elected our first openly gay Congressman. He took the spot of that pot-smoking hippie Mark Udall who moved along to the Senate... who I only call a pot-smoking hippie because he's from Boulder and we all (at least here in Colorado) smoked our first pot in Boulder. For me, it was the Boulder bus terminal when I was 13. For St. Young, it was going to college in Boulder that did it. I'm not sure if Udall was in Boulder when he got busted for pot-smoking back in his youth, but he probably was. The openly gay Congressman, who won by a landslide because it was Boulder and he was the Democrat, is very rich. So it is currently okay to be openly gay if you are a very rich guy in Boulder. Whether or not you need to have smoked pot in Boulder at some point, I'm really not sure. I'll check into it. Cnidaria is okay with it that people get stoned and discuss clean renewable energy sources in Boulder. -- Te wo Tsunaide '08: A Pair Go Tournament Saturday, December 6th, in Boulder Colorado http://cyberpsychos.netonecom.net/PairGo Also home of the Te wo Tsunaide photo archive!

Well, he's no longer so young... but he might be heading toward enough of a promotion to warrant being bisexual before long. Not nearly enough of one to afford being openly gay, sadly, but at least bisexual and capable of paying base bills is promising.

You, then, are a true Coloradan! Er, no, you are a true person from Denver or Boulder. Denver and Boulder have never associated with the rest of Colorado. Except when we're young, then we need to associate with the rich punkettes from Douglas County who bring all of the good party favours. But the rich punkettes from Douglas County, at some point, find themselves getting stoned in Boulder. From there on out it's a sad life of $1 rum and cokes at club Goth nights. -- Te wo Tsunaide '08: A Pair Go Tournament Saturday, December 6th, in Boulder Colorado http://cyberpsychos.netonecom.net/PairGo Also home of the Te wo Tsunaide photo archive!

I should note that I was a middle class punkette from Jefferson County, and getting stoned in Boulder also led to me living the sad life of $1 rum and cokes... BUT I'm sure the initial circumstances would differ greatly. The rich punkettes from Douglas County were probably BROUGHT to buy the pot for everyone who then smoked it with them there. Since Jeff Co is the big swing county, both economically and politically, I was OFFERED the free of charge opportunity to get stoned with a couple of Boulder punk guys. (Yes, all Colorado politics are very tightly linked to who has smoked pot in Boulder -- and how they came about doing it. It should be clear by now that more of the current generation of California voters should, at some point, have taken the time to visit Boulder and get stoned.) -- Te wo Tsunaide '08: A Pair Go Tournament Saturday, December 6th, in Boulder Colorado http://cyberpsychos.netonecom.net/PairGo Also home of the Te wo Tsunaide photo archive!

Mike, who wasn't getting stoned out of fear of cancer and is now banned to Antarctica for being a loose cannon as a result, was the only person to play with on-line back then. He wasn't bisexual, he was goldfish-sexual.

I had meant to buy some sets, but never got around to it. Bruce and I periodically checked out films from the library, especially when we were doing our run of watching the Criterion list (didn't get all the way through it -- Hithcock-wise I at least remember watching things like Spellbound, Notorious, and The Lady Vanishes during that long-running free movie check-out blitz). (BTW -- Amara will be 13 at the end of December -- sound the screeching horror soundtrack about teens -- she's not quite so little anymore. Actually she's almost as tall as we are.) So far she's watched The Birds, Rear Window, and Shadow of a Doubt. Then, yesterday, we finally showed her Psycho. Poor poor Norman... She'd seen so ridiculously many odes to Psycho, I'm glad she finally saw the actual movie. Plus I got to mention Robert Bloch to her as a result. I told her this was one rare instance of a good movie based on a book, and that it worked out because Hitchcock and Bloch were both apt with the suspenseful and creepy mind-set. I suppose if I want to open a huge can of worms I can now say "Hey, Amara, there's this Lovecraft mythos story that Robert Bloch, author of Psycho, wrote..." (Just finished telling her that and finding the book for her, actually there's 3 Bloch stories in it.) She's loved all of the movies so far. I'm happy. => Nice to see her developing a love for well-done suspense, instead of just falling to easily made gore and shock value like so many teens do. It's good that this collection is the murderer-in- the house type suspense, since some of the others might bore her a bit right now. But I'm pondering trying some film noir on her after this...

I think all of you are the last survivors who managed to straggle through 5-6 oft-dead versions of this mailing list in that amount of time... Sorry I let this newest version sit dead for so long. I was busy with all of the Go projects, but now I've pretty much quit all of it and can catch up on other things again. I have to run one last tournament this Saturday, for a particularly time-consuming project I was working with this year (not going to mention what it was yet, I want to finish packing up and leaving first), and then of course I have my Pair Go tournament in December. I haven't even been going to my club, so if anyone wants to visit me there they should let me know in advance (so I'll be there to visit!). St. Young is running the club for me, and St. Klock is still there, too, so it's still in good Cnidarian hands. ;) (And in a good Cnidarian-friendly environment.) Now I guess I'll do things like... er, remember to update links to this version of the mailing list on ALL of my sites. ;) And get cp-news going again, I finally got that straightened back out at the same time as I posted here about non-members not being able to post. Over 4.5 years in that Go black hole... Interestingly, the thing that most encouraged me to leave was someone going off in front of that aforementioned 12 year old daughter of mine (this was last May, she was very 12 back then) about me being a completely insane lunatic. Poor Amara was very upset. She didn't believe it, but she definitely dislikes the person who did it. I guess I started thinking "But, y'know, I always was a bit on the insane side... and all of these projects are organizational things that a sane person could do...". ;) Maybe it's time to get back to seeing what a wacko like me can do. *pondering* *scratching head* There must be something... Either that or I could really go completely insane and burn the city down... ;) -- Te wo Tsunaide '08: A Pair Go Tournament Saturday, December 6th, in Boulder Colorado http://cyberpsychos.netonecom.net/PairGo Also home of the Te wo Tsunaide photo archive!

My part is that the mailing lists disappear over and over and need to move over and over, and I lose track of the subscriber lists. And if I start thinking I'm going to get serious about rebuilding things again, it all goes *poof* again. If only my curse would allow it to build up enough for something like your curse to matter again. ;) I was cringing because the CPAOD index gave the move date to the previous version of the lists in 2005, and I'd never changed them to this one. That's slow! And as soon as I did... the new links weren't working. Heh. Well, they are working again this morning. Glad I updated the CPAOD index for the first time since 2005. ;) My worst was definitely when I got several mailing lists going on Yahoo Groups, and then got banned AND they deleted all of my groups. Hopefully I won't manage QUITE that impressive of a feat again. I probably won't ever get quite that many mailing lists thriving again, so maybe it isn't anything to worry about. Anyway... I wouldn't want to accidentally dehabilitate netonecom by existing with mailing lists, but I suppose my web sites have survived there for this long. -- Te wo Tsunaide '08: A Pair Go Tournament Saturday, December 6th, in Boulder Colorado http://cyberpsychos.netonecom.net/PairGo Also home of the Te wo Tsunaide photo archive!

The ceremony was recorded by 9 News and was potentially going to be aired at noon. (Bruce was already having a panic about this yesterday because he saw a mention in the paper that 3 of the award winners for this contest are getting $5,000 scholarships...

I couldn't use my computer -- can't find the remote or the antenna. We've had a Tivo sitting here forever that we never did anything with, and I finally regretted that for the first time. I finally grabbed a VHS tape with a little space at the end. Wow, resorting to that in this digital age while I'm surrounded by so many digital recording devices. ;) But we do still WATCH tapes, and those wondrous old devices tend to have both play and record functions built into the same machine without extra expense, so at least there is always one of those hooked up. And tons of tapes lying around. All of this struggle, and of course there was nothing about the awards ceremony on 9 News. Just James Bond and the food drive, and some Bronco guy or other retiring. And that little dusting of strange white stuff that they're calling snow... which seems to be a big deal even though it melted as soon as the sun came up. Whatever. I was happy to see the dusting of white stuff at 5am. Glad I had my chance to see it before the sun came up, in case it never happens again (nothing wet happens here, except that one rain storm in early August). And I suppose it's nice to see that Bond has trended toward actors trained to do a lot of their own stunts. Not that I've watched a Bond film since Sean Connery and Roger Moore. Unless I saw one shortly after that on TV and forgot about it, that is entirely possible. All I remember is being traumatized by seeing Val Kilmer as Batman... The World's Greatest Detective: a blond bimbo. I'll try again at 4, and see what kind of drivel I can be bored by next time. ={ They have time to talk about Christmas when it isn't Thanksgiving yet, but not to talk about the artistic achievements of local kids. Meanies. ={ Anyway, probably no real hope about the scholarship because she was a second place tie (which may just be an in-school thing, I don't know). I just wanted to see my little girl on the news for an accomplishment. And record it, so she could see it later. I would've liked a digital recording for easier sharing, since no one in the family lives here anymore (even my sister moved to New York, not sure if I mentioned that) so I could only call Bruce at work about it. *sniffle* Scholarship would be nice. I don't know how anyone is supposed to afford college without those things... Amara needs to get one or more at some point, but she's only in 7th grade so we have a little time to worry about that. -- Te wo Tsunaide '08: A Pair Go Tournament Saturday, December 6th, in Boulder Colorado http://cyberpsychos.netonecom.net/PairGo Also home of the Te wo Tsunaide photo archive!

I periodically look at more of it. I remember one of the pictures (with captions) briefly cropping up at the youth forum I was working with. Amara got a book a while back that has one of my favourite cat picture captions (not one from the web site). A cat-on-lap staring up very lovingly, saying "You are the warmest piece of furniture I know". Some people really need to conquer the fear of getting killed for putting their cats on diets. I know a happy cat is a cat that gains 200lbs in 2 days, and roly poly waddler cats have their amusing charm, but it isn't any better for them than it is for us. ={ It's instinct for them to hunt in twilight hours, so feeding them at sun-up and sunset could work. Unfortunately we run on clock time instead of cat-time, so right now the short days are inspiring up to 2.5 hours of manic begging before it is officially cat dinner time. Which can be a little unhealthy in that she has notions ala attacking our ankles or making us fall down the stairs and break our necks will encourage us to feed her faster... Last night we were looking up differences between cat-types and dog-types (all carnivores are lumped into those 2 groups... but almost everything is dog-like. The only cat-types are cats, mongooses, and civets, basically. I had thought weasels/ferrets would be cat-like, but apparently not). Cats (and other cat-likes) are arboreal ambush psychos, dogs (and all of the other carnivores -- bears, walruses, weasels, etc) are omnivorous terrestrial critters. Which doesn't explain why people have so much trouble with cats eating their plants... But design- wise cat-types have less teeth and are more focused on the up- front flesh shredders, and dog-types have more teeth and can eat any ol' thing. My cat is pretty partial to eating plastic bags. You probably need up-front shredders for that. So... dogs hang out on the floor and eat anything and everything. Cats hang out up high, leap on targets, and try to kill - but not necessarily eat (unless it's a necessary part of killing) - anything. I think I already knew that from spending time with cats and dogs. ;) Next time your cat suddenly leaps off of or out from under something and reduces your ankles to bloody ribbons, remind yourself that they really can't help it -- it's how they've always been designed. I normally remind myself of this after succumbing to primate instincts ala screaming "ooh ah ah" while chasing the cat down the stairs and using my opposable thumbs to close the door between us. ;) Though locals who have met my cat know she can be a bit of terror, even for an arboreal ambush psycho cat-type. She's a tortoiseshell, and they're notoriously some of the more temperamental cats. I had a good laugh even finding an archaic mention of this which culminated in "they do not seem to get along well with the other cattery". I only chase her downstairs when she's having particularly obnoxious moments, otherwise I would be doing it way too much. When she goes to the vet I always carry her in my arms, which turns into a flailing wrestling match after a minute... but the vet is across the street and across one parking lot. Last time I wasn't awake, so Bruce brought her over in a carrier (I'm 'The One Who Can Survive Carrying Her') and I carried her back without it. We were amused to see an "aggressive patient" sticker on the carrier (not that this hadn't been duly noted by any vet and vet tech she'd seen in the past). I used to just call her the vicious feral attack cat or wild animal, but now we often call her aggressive patient as well. We left the sticker. Maybe a "Use Plate Mail Armor while handling this one" sticker will be next. The funny thing was the she scratched my face when I met her at the shelter. Some people are just stupid. I'm one of those people. Ah, I love my ferocious attack beast. And she has settled down a great deal over the years. Not nearly so many bloody people leaving my house anymore... (which hopefully doesn't mean she's learned to dispose of the bodies and hide the evidence.) I'm not sure if she's my guard cat anymore. One of the funniest moments was when Bruce jokingly attacked me (not doing anything real, but it looked real), so my attack cat charged out and attacked him. I was glad to know the ankles of any attackers I might have would be bloody (nice final reassuring sight to see while dying?) but maybe she's getting too docile in her older age now. (Of course I'm glad she's calmed down. I like the psycho-ness of kitties, but as far as the psychopathy of kitties... I was afraid for a while that we wouldn't be able to keep her, because vicious kitties and kids do not mix well.) -- Te wo Tsunaide '08: A Pair Go Tournament Saturday, December 6th, in Boulder Colorado http://cyberpsychos.netonecom.net/PairGo Also home of the Te wo Tsunaide photo archive!
