The Coffee House

[limr30 3]

ok it's raining and my dvr is empty! I need tv series recommendations so I can do a little binge watching tonight. Here are the parameters:

Despite my obsession with TWD, I don't like horror or creepy.
I've already been through a Sci Fi and a Masterpiece phase this year.
Nothing with Woody Allen, Holly Hunter, Nicholas Cage, Jennifer Morrison

I recently binge-watched my way through Nurse Jackie on Netflix.

Yes, I know it ended in 2015, but that's how I roll - several years behind everyone else

Aw, look!

Rainy all around us while the sun is setting.

So, photo bucket sucks! Looks like every image I ever hotlinked from there will no longer show up. I've been here for many moons, and never had a broken link.

Annoying, but I won't be held hostage for $400. They can pound sand.

They're already seeing a lawsuit over their new "business model. "

Gary is a fan of Smugmug.

I might take a look. They might do the same thing, though. I may just have to stick with upload & attach. Ugh.

What same thing?

Suddenly cut your links and tell you that you simply need to upgrade your plan to enable hotlinking again. You know, extortion under the guise of a business plan.

Gary has been with Smugmug since, 2007 .... (he thinks ... a long time in any event). They have never pulled anything like that. They are family owned and there is always seems to be someone/a person there to take your call. My first account there was a low level account. When they bumped up prices, those with existing accounts were grandfathered in at the old rate. On one occasion, across there forum, a thread appeared requesting help on making a college. As the story unfolded, the request was from a pro in your neck of the woods. His youngest client and her family were recently killed in a terrible car accident and a collage of the 11 y/o, (IIRC), was requested for the funeral. Smugmug put their own staff on the matter, personally contacting forum member with graphics expertise, managed the entire project, printed poster sized photos/collages and FedEx the entire package back to Georgia in time for the funeral ... all on their nickel. Not only is Smugmug rarely down, not only is it quite easy to speak with an employee/manager which can handle a request. ... but they also have a human face and compassion.

What is humidity?

Atmospheric moisture. A relative humidity of 100% means that the air can't hold any more water vapor. It's totally saturated. With heat, humidity and Asthma it's like being waterboarded.

What you have along the SD coast this time of year.

 

[snowbear115 47]

The deluge has arrived. Humidity will follow. I'll pack some up and send it to @Gary A.

 

[snowbear115 47]

I need a break. I might disappear for a while after the contest voting ends. We'll see.

Oh, we don't have much of that here.

Thanks, Gary enjoys being waterboarded.

If I can pick up any slack for you during your hiatus let me know. I'll be around for the next month before my vacation.

SD ... as in San Diego? SD in winter averages 65F in summer 75F ... Gary's understanding is that humidity needs high heat to be uncomfortable. In winter here, when it rains, Gary doesn't feel the humidity.

I'ts mainly keeping an eye on the forums and look for spam and noobs trying to nominate their own stuff. I just need to go shoot stuff, whether it's hot or not. I'll be back in full force at the end of the month.

needs high heat to be uncomfortable

Not necessarily 40 degree temperature with high humidity "feels" colder than 20 degrees with low humidity. For those with Asthma, temperatures at either end can cause flare ups, but cooler air is denser and the attack doesn't seem to last as long. Most of my ER visits have been in the heat of summer, only one that I can remember occurred during cooler weather.

 

[Gary A.]

40F ... typically, only gets that cold in the mountains. My youngest daughter has asthma. Gary doesn't think it is as severe as your asthma. She lives in San Diego.

Why is Gary always talking about Gary as if he is standing next to him?
