  1. Doing well. Watching political theatre. I've never been called subtle. LOL But it's true. Other peeps get away discussing politics in other popular chat threads, while I've been smacked twice for just talking about a law.
  2. You know... my life Really sucks, if I'm watching the Election Results and not Hockey. I just hope Really haRd that the RIGHT people win in the FloRida Races. I would say who I was backing, but unlike other thReads in the open foRums, I'd get smacked RIGHT upside my head if I tRied to discuss politics heRe.
  3. We have a cold front headed for us. Overnight in the high 40's, and 70's during the day... 😎
  4. Don't quote me on it, I think this occurs because we have a high number of foreign visitors who come to the US and overstay their visas. At which point they become illegal aliens.
  5. I'm sorry to say, that I've only have heard of it as a name. Dolores Umbrage, the "witch," from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
  6. That's the plan. I'm hoping not to have a repeat.
  7. An official good morning, now that I've been properly caffeinated. I hope everyone has a splendid day, and may everyone be blessed. Thanks again, tim, my brother, for the feedback. I'll be working on that later today. Week 3 starts today, and I have a lot of stuff to do as well. Also, at 1:30 am my time I was able to finish all of last week's work. 29 minutes before it was due, because of that fraking time change. I hate that it took so damn long for me to finish.

    A fantastic tale brought about by story prompts. Each chapter continues the life of the MC in the modern world and has flashbacks to his previous lives. I found each chapter splendid, compelling, and well written. The author states this was his first story on GA, but I could not tell. The writing did improve from one chapter to another, but overall it was excellent. Five-stars and I should have read it earlier instead of keeping it on my "To Read" list.
  9. I'm up as well but haven't been caffeinated yet. Wanted to reply to Zen, and now reading something from my "To Be Read" list that's been there since I started GA.
  10. We have the ride program down here in Florida too, however, there are laws governing how it works in this state. Most ride programs are either done by volunteers of campaigns, the political parties, or from a church (those are called "Soul Rides"). The bus/van/car must be free of political advertisement, no pamphlets discussing voting, and the driver can not allow political discussions while on the bus/van/car. Violation of this is considered a 3rd-degree felony for voter intimidation and election fraud. Somewhat. It goes over minimum word counts for starting a new discussion (150 words), replying to her (150 words), and replying to our peers (75 words). She expects proper grammar, sentence structure, etc. and we can not quote or cite the book or our peers. All our postings have to be done in our own words, as they say.
  11. Sleep Well, miss molly. May tomorrow be better.
  12. Yeah... and I'm not the only one in class that has issues with it either. There's a chat feature built into our eCampus, where we can talk to each other. I've gotten a few pings asking if it was happening to me too. The school's policy is the instructor has the final say on what is and is not substantial for participation, and last week someone openly asked her in the Class Messages what does she consider substantial. She referred back to her Instructor Policies.
  13. Sleep Well, Def. Have a good day off tomorrow.
  14. Back to classwork. On the final chapter, and then have the assessment. Plus I get to check if she marked any more of my posts as unsubstantial without explanation. # of Discussion Posts Made this week = 18 # of Discussion Posts Accepted as of 4:00 pm today = 6 # Needed for participation = 8
  15. I do mine by mail-in too. I did it at the apartment because I didn't have transportation to get to the polling place, and now at the uncle's, it's automatically set to send to me till the 2020 Presidential election. I keep forgetting to cancel it until I get it in the mail. Everyone else here does early voting.
  16. It's more of a pain in the ass. lol
  17. Best to be safe, than sorry.
  18. Glad it's working out, miss molly. Hope the rest of the night is better for you.
  19. Mental break... If I see another Subject/Verb fragment, run-on, sentence I think I will punch something. While I like the fact I'm getting a refresher, this is the stuff I struggle with.
  20. For some reason, that doesn't surprise me. LOL.
  21. 😂 😎 It's easy. First you must embrace your inner pervert, and then read the forums half-asleep and no coffee.☕
  22. Good Morning, my fellow DiCers. Busy day, and starting off by heading out to see Mom this morning. @Defiance19 I had to do a triple-take with your avatar. You don't want to know what it looked like to me, at first, and what it was doing. Let's just say, my mind was in the gutter firmly.
