Oldiesmann: Finally got the AmazonBot situation under control. I basically changed some server settings to tell AmazonBot that it's not allowed to access anything on the site. That should fix the speed issues we've been experiencing lately

junee

Thanks Chia for all that information.  Especially about the horse and the donkey.!!!!!!
Enjoyed the quiz.

Chia

Junee..Thanks for your comments :)

Joy

Good quiz, Chia.   Just never know what new things we will learn here.  I love learning something new !   And,  we all know that you are never too old to learn something new !!!!

Good things to keep the mind active and try to avoid dementia.

I have talked to people before that just aren't interested in learning new things, or hearing about something new.  If you want to be able to discuss things with your grandchildren,  you just have to keep on your toes.  LOL

Joy...I found what you said interesting...and true...but....as you know, you cannot push your thoughts and enthusiasm on to to others with deaf ears and thoughts...
All one can do is Aspire, to Inspire before you expire...I wish I was the one smart enough to have made up  such a saying...but it is my new "battle cry"

junee

I like your Battle Cry.

Chia


Joy

I like your "Battle Cry", also.   That's a very interesting saying.

Joy..Ever since I came across that saying on line, it made a big impression on me...and I really try to adhere to the saying as much as I can.. P.S.
I am correcting my error in quoting the saying...The correct one is: Aspire, To Inspire, before You Expire...

RAMMEL

Music.  No apparent theme. It's all over the place.  I guess the theme would be "Random".

1 - Time means nothing to you

2 - Can't help feeling gloomy

3 - I thought that you'd want what I want

4 - Far from all the commotion

5 - And every Jack must have a Jill

6 -  Goodbye to tender nights beside the silv'ry sea

7 - While the Louisiana moon floats on high

8 - You wanted fame instead

9 - He just keeps His eye on me

10 - Yes the strong get smart
                While the weak ones fade
It's the WINDMILLS
