I think I saw where you got this resolved, but if you've got issues, do not hesitate to start a new thread or check to see if we've covered the topic before (the search feature works surprisingly well for a discussion forum). That way you aren't buried amongst the rabble getting mad at spiders or whatever we've moved on to. ;)

I just figured it was Kansas making up for all the tornado activity occurring more and more to the east. Kansas can't have its citizens feeling complacent.

Hey, we're more than just twisters. We also have high winds, horrible allergy seasons, the occasional prairie fires and, apparently, earthquakes. All your natural disasters in one state :D
(On the plus side, it does smell nice, here).
Ya know, all this talk of Kansas got me wondering if Toto and Kansas ever toured together, so I looked it up. Apparently they're touring together next year.
Mod
They should have Scarecrow, Tin Machine and White Lion with them. Rainbow could be the opening act.
I think Kansas was last seen touring with Alabama. Grand finale was Georgia On My Mind. That really closed the show.

Why go with White Lion when you could have plain old Lion, the band known pretty much only to nerds who watched Transformers, the Movie.
And now where did I put my hairspray?

(Oddly, there's a Dio tie in according to their Wiki entry)
Eff the Transformers. Effing robot cars that are so lame even an effing robot enthusiast like myself cant get excited about them. And eff car Voltron too. Lion Voltron is the only space robot thing worth watching.
Go-bots made Transformers look like Akira.
Mod
Because White Lion is better.

Those movies... *shudder* .... those movies....
F "them" for never having made a Thunder Cats movie starring Chris Hemsworth as Liono. Totes lame.

Teen Titans. That's my son's jam. He doesn't get many of the b-in-the-d references, of course. A pity.

No, I won't have that! Unbreakable was far worse! And that's despite having Samuel L Jackson in it!! :-(
Mod
I didn't hate Unbreakable, but it's nice to see that someone else wasn't blown away by it. So many say it's one of his best and I can't see why! The only M. Night Shampoo movie I've seen that I liked it "The Sixth Sense". The worst was "The Village". Bleh.
F*ing Windows 10 and IPV6: Could not connect for a day and a half. I'm still not sure it will not just decide to play up and disconnect again, at anytime.
Q: What is the sound of one hand clapping?A: Much softer than that of one foot stomping.
I have been so disappointed in Windows 10. About half of the programs that I used don't work anymore, and I don't care what they say about "compatibility mode", it has NEVER worked for me. I'm thinking about seeing if my computer guru can put me back to Windows 7, where I was last happy...
Yeah, I had Windows 7 and loaded Windows 10, and was disappointed to see that it put a layer of "user friendly" garbage between me and my computer. I've had to uninstall a bunch of useless stuff that cluttered the start menu.
Windows 10 brought my computer back from the dead, so I can't complain about removing some clutter. Not like I don't have to do that with every new machine anyway. Now, back on topic:
Eff you, creepy story idea that won't stay on the back burner! You think just because you are oh so clever and spine chilling that you get to jump to the front of the very long queue??? I don't effing think so! I have a flipping series to end first!

That might be a losing battle. Give in. It'll feel good. Oh wait. This is the wrong thread for feeling good. Yeah! Eff that!

Sure, I love the man. I'm a huge fan of the Marx Brothers. But, I found a clip of Dick Cavett interviewing Truman Capote. Capote was trying to discuss the art of writing, but Groucho kept interrupting with juvenile jokes and unfunny anecdotes.
F*@ you, Groucho Marx!
Mod

See folks? It's not just the indies who get no respect.
(Please don't read that in the Rodney Dangerfield voice!)
Mod
And the disrespect was deep. Jim Fowler* was on the same episode and Groucho kept talking over Capote to talk about the rat Jim Fowler brought onto the show.
*For younger members of the group, Jim Fowler is a zoologist and at the time was co-host of Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom.

Eff the fact that every time I Google something for research, an annoying ad box appears on Goodreads in relation to it. Last summer I was researching cemeteries for my book. I still get the ad for one of them here on Goodreads. Eff the machine for tracking my searches and trying to sell it back to me!

Hahaha! And yes, I clicked on it just to push the cemetery ads closer to the bottom of the priority cycle, or however "they" do that. Totally worth it!
Mod
I bet I could really fly if I had some of those.
Mod
Mod
Oh, no. Uh uh. I'm not wearing pajamas to any conference. I don't want to look silly. I'm wearing my yodeling hat and bathrobe or I'm wearing nothing.
Wait...
Mod
ok, those pjs made me laugh out loud, I wanna get a pair for SOMEONE for Christmas, just to see their face when they open them

I'm glad I use an ad-blocking app.
Mod
Yeah. I still see this.
