OOC: I just wanted to say that the reason I dropped out at the end of game night last is because the batteries in my wireless mouse died unexpectedly, without the little indicator light going from green to red, as it normally would. Alas, trying to find batteries in the house was more difficult than finding Carmen, herself; and had me longing for the "good old days" of computers without mouses (lol).

But, luckily, everything was easily fixed with a trip to the store today.

I had a great time (as I always do!!) and (amazingly) actually won a round early in the night. I look forward to joining you again, next week, unless something unexpected happens (which it probably won't but you never know. Lol).

If we can work out the best way to do it with decent software and easily available sites for sharing the stream by Halloween, maybe a horror movie marathon (and, not the typical horror movies that AMC and TCM and the usual channels show)... indie horror, foreign horror, lesser-known horror.

    I just watched a show, I think it was from The History Channel? It was talking about how they think the 2 escapees from Alcatraz didn't need to build a raft. They hitch

    They think the guys hitched a ride so to speak on one of the boats leaving Alcatraz.

    ((So... the latest is that the woman who reported the folks to the police, called the guy who handled the appeal (after we left the room) and told him that if he doesn't make sure to get the folks out of the building, she'd make things difficult for him. The property manager told ma a few days ago, and ma told me today. So, anyone know what that would be called? Coercing, bribery, influence peddling? Would that invalidate the eviction? This is Section 8 housing, so low-income housing. The appeal decision should in theory get here next week or maybe Friday, and they can appeal again, maybe this one would be in real court... don't know. I will advise the folks contact legal aid and see what they say.))

    ((Correction: the parents are caving, they are planning for the move ON January 1st, without waiting to hear what the appeal decision is, and not willing to fight it. I stormed out of their place tonight (punched the call button for the elevator... they may have heard it), because I know they could win the second appeal hands down (they don't want "more of the stress from all this", they would discuss shit when I went to the bathroom tonight). I reminded them they may not get the entertainment center through the door to the apartment, we probably will have to take the claw legs off the table for the first time ever, but they have their heart set on it. ))

    ((My right middle finger, behind first knuckle, left a bit of skin on the button... I was that angry. They decided this without talking to me, saying they were "tired of the stress". They're set on a two bedroom apartment ($154 more than the current, at least), it's up to me if I want to move, they said. Once we leave this place (section 8/low-income housing, the waiting list is over 2 years), that's it... the building manager retires later 2025... she pulled a string to get me in here))

    Did you know.....The original candy canes were straight sugar sticks that were often used to decorate Christmas trees. The first historical reference to the cane shape was in 1670, when the choirmaster at Cologne Cathedral in Germany bent the sugar sticks into the shape of a shepherd's staff. Candy canes remained white until the early 20th century when red stripes and peppermint flavor became popular.

    ((So... the folks called me upstairs to help figure out how to get their SSI paperwork to the new landlord... we were discussing it, when the landlord emailed that all three of us are denied... mostly the main thing was "poor rental history; insufficient income (they're on SSI); no credit file; if no judgment was rendered on them after they appealed the initial eviction notice, then they gave their 30 days notice, can they rescind that (this is Minnesota, ya shure, ya betcha) and stay?
