Cocoa Hoots cereal. Loved those; fifty years on and I still remember how they tasted…

I remember, and miss them. My grandma always had them around back in the mid-seventies, and they were the treat of all treats.

She always had Buc-Wheats cereal in the pantry too.

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.

A second-hand (pre-Cerberus/Freedom Group) Remington 1100 or 11-87 in twenty-gauge. I am partial to the “special field” version with the straight grip.

Any adjustable LOP would be aftermarket, or you can have her measured and get the factory stock altered by a competent gunsmith. Note that I wrote “gunsmith,” not “AR assembler” - the two are conflated far too often these days.

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.

What book is this? It’s damnably familiar, but I can’t place it.

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…

Coatings chemist here.

If you’re willing to go waterborne, try General Finishes. Their stains and clears have always performed well for me.

A most superb owl indeed.
