The Amazing Randi, Magician and debunker of paranormal claims, died at age 92. He had a good run. RIP.

Just this morning I archived the AO recipe book…thinking that I had a few posts in there that I might want to keep around. Thank goodness, I guess.

Well, thanks Glenn & Traci (& whomever else) for getting this place set up. It’ll take an old guy like me a while to find my way , so if you see me mindlessly wandering around just nudge me in the right direction.

I appreciated The Amazing Randi – I love his brand of magic, and more than that, I appreciated running across his book Flim-Flam when I was in middle school and on an occult kick.

Just today I pulled details of a couple recipes I posted on the AO. I might have been able to replicate them easily, but the notes I left will be helpful. When the plug got pulled I still had the pages up that I could copy/paste from. Lucky.
I even made one of them today: peruvian wings with jalapeno cilantro sauce.
I archived the entire AO recipe book. I didn’t know how else to do it, so it went like this:

Before or after we wipe the drool from your lips?
Can you edit these links with “descriptive” titles? I think it’s a matter of using square brackets [ ] around the description right before the link address.
Makes no matter…I appreciate both the direction and the drool-free lips.
Can I? I doubt it. I can barely make a coherent post these days. But, for you, VA, one of my most ardent supporters…I’ll give it a try…but all it is is “Page 1”, “Page 2”, et cetera.
There, I fixed it.
In addition to what you said about brackets square going around the description right be fore the link address, the link address needs to be put within (parenthesis). :tmyk:
I think most would find the “Page x” easier to remember where to go back to if they needed to.

RIP Sean Connery.

So many great characters. What a loss 
The only actor’s image I associate with James Bond.

RIP Sir Sean Connery. 
Little known fact, Sean Connery was a bodybuilder when he was young. My friend’s father in law was in a competition with him, has a brochure with both their pictures in it. Connery had no beard, but you could tell it was him even at a young age.
If you want some fun Connery, check out Darby O’Gill and the Little People. It’s on Disney+.
