Matt:
Hello Rush!

07-13 18:46
Rush:
Great to see you!
I hope that your week went well.

07-13 18:46
Matt:
You too……Hope you had a good week

07-13 18:46
Rush:
Another week feeling a taste of what retirement might feel like!

07-13 18:46
Matt:
Another day in paradise……hot and humid though

07-13 18:46
Rush:
Ah!

07-13 18:47
Matt:
Getting ready?

07-13 18:47
Rush:
We have our share of humidity here as well.
No…not yet!

07-13 18:48
Rush:
I plan to keep going till our younger daughter graduates from college.
Three more years…
Than…who knows?
(Then)


07-13 18:48
Matt:
Ah!……The count down begins!

07-13 18:49
Rush:
My wife wants to go maybe five more years?
Yes.
Can you post the extra for tonight when the time comes?

07-13 18:49
Matt:
Ok, I got it up and ready

07-13 18:50
Rush:
I was not able to get our weekly message to post on our Message Board, fully, and I for some reason, cannot access my email at this computer.

07-13 18:50
Matt:
I really think it’s wrong the home run derby tonight is exclusive to Netfkix!

07-13 18:50
Rush:
Yahoo keeps saying my password is wrong.

07-13 18:50
Rush:
I really don’t like it how baseball games and events are carried now on “other” types of networks!

07-13 18:51
Rush:
It would take my daughter to help me access Netflix.
And she is not here tonight.
Hello…PHIL!
WELCOME!

07-13 18:52
Matt:
I refuse to pay these subscriptions. Just makes me angry

07-13 18:52
Rush:
Me as well!

07-13 18:52
Matt:
Hello Phil!

07-13 18:53
Rush:
Sometimes a Cubs game is on Peacock…which we don’t have.

07-13 18:53
Rush:
I wonder if Phil is having technical troubles?

07-13 18:55
Matt:
I was thinking of a monthly poll question…..or series of questions for you. If I remember, I’ll try to email you

07-13 18:55
Rush:
I see that I got enough of this week’s message to post at the Message Board, so I DO have the address for tonight’s extra after all!


07-13 18:56
Matt:
Ok, great!

07-13 18:56
Rush:
YES! Please send me any poll ideas!!!

07-13 18:56
Matt:
Have we tried to vote on a top 5 Chan film?

07-13 18:57
Rush:
When I was taking classes for my teacher’s credential a long time ago, when I got bored..and that happened a LOT…I would think of a poll question for the next month!

07-13 18:58
Rush:
I got a phone message that the home run derby is starting now…yes, on Netflix.

07-13 18:58
Matt:

tagara weed (tagara)- (Sanskrit) A slightly hairy, tufted herb with thick horizontal rootstocks that contains a sweet-smelling essential oil. Tagara (Indian valerian) is prescribed as a remedy for hysteria, hypochondria, nervous unrest, and emotional troubles. The drug contains a group of iridoid or monoterpenic derivatives, known as valepotriates which are useful as tranquilizers and sedatives. An iridoid ester glycoside designated as valerosidatum (isovaleryl glucoside) has also been isolated.
