johan amadeus myjetski: hi llan!
||||||||| Catherwood interjects: "At your cervix."
Rufus_T_Firetween: I've gotten spolied rotted by Google Gigabit Fiber, esp after the lousy ATT U-Verse service
Cease: How are things in Elayne-land?
llanwydd: thats better
Elayne: Stressful, tiring, keeping my head down and my mouth shut
Elayne: But that's just the job. Outside of that, home life is great. Just got our internet/cable/landline upgraded and now paying half of what we were before
Elayne: Still haven't caught COVID, thank goodness
llanwydd: I have the same bundle but I am still paying an arm and a leg
Cease: wow. congradultions
Cease: i should make a collage about the firsesingns riffiung on canada.
llanwydd: where I live, upgraded doesnt mean discount
Elayne: Well, we were paying way too much for way too long, and Robin FINALLY called customer service to get things straightened out
Elayne: Took him only two years or so...
Cease: good
llanwydd: lol
Elayne: My guess is that we were just too preoccupied with Zed, and after he died we started getting things done again
Elayne: Next cat(s) will not come pre-programmed
llanwydd: like the i ching says, perseverance furthers.
Cease: yeah that happens.
llanwydd: and like my grandma used to say, nothing good comes easy.
Cease: we were desolated when our cat Jazz died in Feb 2021. But the next month we foundourselves with a new cat.
Elayne: I'm convinced our next kitty or kitties will find us when the time is right, just like Zed told us when it was time to let him go
Elayne: Probably won't happen until next year but we'll see
Cease: Bob was 6 when we rescued him and only an indoor cat. now he's 8 and outcdoors so plagued with fleas.
Cease: the problem, when you get into your 70s and have no family, is that the cat may outlive you and then, who will respond?
llanwydd: well, you could bequeath your pets to your relatives
Cease: none
llanwydd: interesting, cat. I have more relatives than I need
Cease: i love the art gallery he just talked about.
Cease: i always go there when in vegas. great stuff
Cease: saw the kusama show in 2019. very psychedelic experience
Elayne: I saw Kusama stuff at the NY Botanical Gardens, I think it was last year
Elayne: Robin picked up some sort of illness which he's never fully shaken
Elayne: Kusama's Revenge, I guess
Cease: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yayoi_Kusama
Cease: she spent a lot of time in nyc. did you see any of her biopics,EL?
Cease: i find her very inspirational.
Cease: her infinity room, at that gallery at the Bellagio, was as psychedially artistic experience as i've ever had in a room.
Elayne: I did not, Cat. But I did like the stuff I saw of hers.
Cease: i know the Firesign wanted to do something like that. a 3-D environment.
llanwydd: that would have been trippy
Cease: the firesign were very influenced the euro-NY avart gard art movements of the 60s. yayoi was very much part of that.
llanwydd: I gotta go folks. great to see you all this week. till nest thirsty...
Cease: i would be surprised if proctor had know of her work in the early 60s
Cease: by llan.
Cease: i mean, had NOT known of her work.
