I think you could utilize my suggested remedy, modelled as you will recognize on past posts of your favorite drinkies, in a plastic ziploc bag, which of course can rest on the affected eye socket, given that the straw to plastic bag connection is well secured, perhaps with a rubber band, and that the straw to plastic back connection is not placed right over said eyeball.
Repeat as necessary...
E.-
Try Queenie's remedy for "pissed off".
LOL
<ouch>
ossoB, that is brilliant. an ice bag/adult beverage storage tank!
bag connection, bag connection...
Bag size can be varied; avoid driving..

I suppose that I too am a contender for the award.
No, Georgeob, I, a reader of the politics and religion-spirituality forums, don't think of you in that way.
With some, I see it as mice running around wheels after each other, with all the same spokes to cross to make the wheels go.
Osso,
Thank you for that - you are being kind.
Well, I don't always agree with you, not that I elaborate on that very often, but I find your posts always thoughtful, lucidly expressed, and I do listen.
Damn! I rise to challenge and opposition, but am stymied by polite acceptance.

I'm actually trying hard to be better than you. However, my listing in the top ten of
usually suspects is much better than yours.
Walt-
These are said to be "untranslatable" into English in a book I often study.
"erstaunlich umfangreiches,ihm standig prasentes,Wissen."(Eduard Meyer.The last three words are in italics and there are two dots over the'a's.
"exacte sinnliche Phantasie" (Goethe).
Could you possibly enlighten me?
1. "astonishing extensive knowledge, constantly present to him"
2. "exact sensual phantasy" (accorcing to
this website: "exact sensorial imagination")
Quote:"exact sensorial imagination"
I was just about to say that.
I would have never thought of saying that.
Well, it was a toss-up whether to go with that one or the equally tempting "ameliorative tactile denouement".

I like that one very much so...
awwwwwwwwwww.......y'all love me. Thank you spendius for your sweet reminder of my birthday coming up on that day you will mention when the time comes. Unfortunately on that day I'll be 59 years old.......that's one year away from 60 folks.......oh dear oh dear.....Beth, you better make room for me on the floor and get me a tonic with a bending straw. This aging thing is getting me down. I hope you're ok. How's the bump on the head? Colorbook the wine doctor.........the wine with the straw is a perfect birthday present.
george, yes Mr. Bernie has not smoked since his big day last month. Or if he has, he's a genius at covering it up. There has been not a whiff of evidence that he has smoked........not even one of those butts he keeps admiring on the sidewalks of New York. So buy that book and get to reading. We'll see you next year when you've finally made it through. And Osso is right.......you're bright enough, but your arguments do......they really do, get a little repetitive.......but I love you anyway for your poetic sensibilities.
Eva, will you call a cleaning service? Wassau and I have gotten a bit lazy around here and the dust is collecting. I've been busy trying to figure out how to get rich with as little effort as possible.
Actually, I've been playing with jewelry design, beaded necklaces, earrings and bracelets. I'm never buying another piece of jewelry again. I can make this stuff for far less than it costs to buy it at Neiman Marcus. I'm having some success........but I'll never get rich doing this. My vision is dim and my hands numb.....but I could hire younger eyes and hands maybe. I am having fun. Sorry I've been neglecting my friends.
I've also got a good idea.....actually this is really true......to make some money. My income needs a supplement. I'll be finding out more about it next week.
Beth, I have to be away on the 20th. I'll return on the 21st. Will you be around on that Saturday? We need to get together while you're here......have a party at our place. I'll visit the New York thread and see what's planned.
spendi's spooner surprise..........I only hope I'll get it.......you're so much better than I am at that. Keep thinking of all those things that Dys would never think of....it's good exercise for him.
And Wande.........that pic of our fearless leader will adorn the walls of this café forever. We'll use it, as Thomas has suggested, for the very purpose of throwing darts.......or maybe just a reminder of how bad things can get. Thank you for it. It's a great early birthday present. Thomas dear, you know me too well.
And Francis...........you have fine taste in word phrases.
I love you guys. I can't wait for my little birthday party on that day next week that spendi will tell you when it happens.
