Short quiz for those who casually think about speed when they are driving or even when they see a vehicle speed by. Maybe they don't give it any thought.

Wolfjess' Speedway Demons brought to mind something I have contemplated since I was little. Only we are going to ramp up the speed from so long ago.
1: A vehicle is traveling at 200 mph. For simplicity's sake discount tire slippage on the surface.
2: How fast is the apex (top) of the tire traveling?
3. How fast is the bottom of the tire traveling where it fully contacts the surface?

About a hundred and seventy thousand people died across the world today. Each one was a mother, brother, sister, son, daughter, friend, partner colleague, comrade. Many were loved, Many were good people. Many will be missed. Some died surrounded by their loved ones. Others alone. Some at peace. Others in pain.

What is the difference between a "Novel Chapter" and a "Serial Chapter"?

This is Sam. Whether the mission is to be sweet and find the betrayer, or to be spicy by BEING the betrayer, Sam is ready.

And his favorite color is clear to all who can see.

(Ran into a new Among Us type game, had some fun with character creation. Entertaining reactions after "Dora and Boots" successfully killed everyone, with Sam obviously being "Dora". But I made sure to leave it visible in the attached photo that Sam is in fact a male character.)

as they say in Niedersachsen

Got bored and put together this graphic based on the Redneck Home Security joke.

The note on the door reads:

I am sorry about the non-appearance of the latest chapter. I have been admitted to the local hospital for observation following chest pains. The next three chapters are written but are on my desktop machine. I will update when I can. Louise

to which my standard reply is 'klein'

well i think i was!

No one must sacrifice everything just to make a donation. It would be wrong to give one's meal ticket if it meant they had to do without. But that is what I'm going to suggest. Daddy always told me to watch the pennies because the dollars will take care of themselves. Give that one some thought. Daddy was a very smart person. BCTS has a physical address (mailing address) listed. If one could drop five dollars in an envelope and send it. If you don't think it counts, think again. It counts very very much. Add the numbers and say a hundred people do the same. Are we getting there?

Selected for jury duty. I was laughing as I read I had been summoned for jury duty and when I had to report to the court house. Called the court clerk and explained my circumstances and told her I would be more than pleased to attend. Although I believe I have an excellent sense of fashion I would be bringing the past X number of years of medical files in my briefcase. I'm sure the judge and lawyers wouldn't be pleased.

HELP! Just now I was trying to insert a picture in a PM. When I tried to preview the message, the message disappeared and when I tried to reconstruct it, all but three of my pictures have disappeared.

Is there any way to get them back? There are a lot of them that need to appear in current stories, both mine and other authors.

“It’s true that love can be hard on a person—the act of loving someone the way they need to be loved instead of how you want to love them, I mean. It takes a lot of effort to make someone else’s desires and troubles your own. You have to want it more than anything. And you have to want it whether they notice or not. Because that’s the nature of the thing: to care so much that it doesn’t matter if they ever reciprocate. If you really feel that way, you can’t hurt them. You just can’t. And when they hurt you, you forget it right away.”

The past several weeks have been......... well, let’s say interesting. You remember the old Chinese curse about living in interesting times? Yeah......... interesting.

A few years ago I noticed a mole on the back of my left shoulder, just above the scapula. It was unfortunately in a location that was visible in certain styles of clothing (annoyingly and unflatteringly so), and over time it became large enough that it occasionally caught on my bra strap or rubbed on my clothing uncomfortably.

Long story short, I decided to give bitwarden a try

I'm looking for a story that I read on here some time ago but I never thought to book market.

The story begins as always with a young boy who happens to be the town Tara who lives with his grandparents that just doesn't care. The Grandparents win in a vacation somewhere and leaves him with the next door neighbour and their daughter. Down to the fact of their daughter leaves her underwear in her dressing jacket and he has none decides to put it on and find that out who he really is.

I am looking for a story that I read a few years ago. I cant remember the name of the main charter but it had to do with a kid in school that was kidnapped by some jocks and transformed into a girl so that one of the jocks had a girl to take to the prom. I believe they were on the football team. They even made it so he could not talk with some kind of glue to his lips. I hope that is enough information to find this story. I also dont remember if i read it hear or on FM. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for being patient!

on the computer front!

My granddaughter gave her old laptop to her aunt. It's an Asus D550M. My granddaughter hasn't used the computer in over a year. When I fired it up to do the setup for the new owner, I kicked me to the Bios Screen and I found the battery was so low the clock had lost its time keeping. So I set it the time and date. I was then able to get into the computer, not thinking about what was going to happen when I restarted the computer. I uninstalled a program and it wanted to restart the computer.

those, 2-3 days difference really do make February feel short!

of the new, full edition of On The Edge!
