My wife and I have a Moluccan cockatoo and an Indian ringneck.

Think of parrots as very demanding, often destructive, toddlers that never grow up and have no “inside voice.” They will make you thank whatever god you follow that you can get subtitles on your television.

I remember that. (I was a senior in high school when I first saw it on TRS-80 model 3s, so it must have been 1985 or so.)

I also remember editing the source so you could both pick any name for your country and skew the RNG results in your favor with a flag.

The three diabetics I’ve cared for were all best controlled with a combination of diet and Levemir. Fancy Feast pate-style and no dry food; no need for “special” (read “way overpriced” food).

Check with Diabetic Cats in Need about the best ways to source Levemir or Lantus. I used to live in the Detroit area and just drove to Canada for it where it is over-the-counter and less expensive…

Interesting. I’ve met him; he came to my university back in the early 1990s to deliver a lecture. A very pleasant and humble man.

His son Kazuya taught my undergraduate geophysics course.

My first distro back in 1996. Tempus fugit.

“This looks cool and weird. I’ll try it!”

Same. What a task…
