  • The freebies were in the list of new reelases I think, certainly the Rubble one. But the prominent listing is at the bottom of https://www.daz3d.com/2018-pc-plus-sale

    Which sales promo page?  I use the link at the top that says "Shop", first after the DAZ3D logo.  On that page, everything is usually listed, including the 100% off items.  That page has scrolling banners with individual items or promos, one of which is the FastGrab, then the bi-weekly Freebies.  Under that one is What's hot, which is individual item pages, same for the next scrolling banner.  Under that is the filters, and on the right Sort By, which I have set to New Arrivals.  I don't think I've ever used a page that was for all sales promos in general, just the links in the banners at top.

    Complaint:  For the last 60 hours, the temperature here on my front porch has been 40F + or - a couple degrees, day and night. frown

    Non-complaint:  Considering what's to come all too soon, I'm relieved that the temperature here on my front porch has been 40F + or - a couple degrees, day and night. indecision

    40F = 4.4C

    Non-complaint:  While browsing my new TV offerings I found a version of Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew" with John Cleese as the male lead character, Petruchio. yes Hmmm... not bad, but his behavior is very Cleesey. I glimpse a lot of Basil Fawlty in him.  It almost spoils the mood.  But the production is certainly more Shakespeare-ish than that 1929 movie of the same name with Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks that I watched last week.  no

    In case anyone is wondering:  I already have an appointment to see the surgeon next week.  I guess the office is popular.

    I hope they can take care of the tooth problem quickly, to end your suffering.

    Thank you Richard and Chohole!  Rubble 2 was the last one I got, over a week ago.

    Complaint:  I was deleting unnecessary emails via my iPad... And the way the GUI is set up on the iPad, if you swipe to delete and you swipe at a slight angle the list will move... So a Home Depot email was above a DAZ email titled "Do You Want To Build A Cyborg?"... And it looked like that was the title of the Home Depot ad... So naturally I was like "YES!!"

    So needless to say I was disappointed when I instantly tapped on that and it was just an ad for refrigerators... I was puzzled for a moment though... Not quite sure if I had misread the email title and these were cyborg refrigerators or it was being suggested that one can now use refrigerator parts in their cyborg projects.

    I was about to write an email complaining that the ad was misleading, but I decided to go back and I noticed it was a DAZ ad that offered cyborg creation... And that's just disappointing because DAZ won't offer any sort of real cyborg parts and accessories for another 28 years and Home Depot won't get into cyborg repair accessories for another 31 years... Well after RoboMart is already selling Cyborg stuff... Considering how expensive RoboMart is (and you'd think that with a "mart" name it'd be cheap, but no sir)... It's surprising Home Depot will take that long.

    Well, just forget all that or you'll inadvertently change the future... Or not... I really don't care anymore at this point... This timeline is really screwed up and I'm not even close to figuring out if this is a minor deviation or an entirely different split... Megh...

    Question: Which seems a better option if you have a big scratched up bruise on your cheek (the face set)... Leave it alone and don't shave and look like a grizzled prospector for a few days or attempt to carefully shave the area and look semi-clean shaven, but look like I was punched by a cactus?

    I'm leaning towards shaving but I don't see this ending cleanly without a lot of gory mess or possibly just shaving around the area and seeing if I can get society to embrace the idea of scabby soul patches.

    ...I'm waiting for Nov 7th.

    That's when the volume of daily incoming emails should drop significantly to the point the unread ones take up a half page or less when I get up in the morning instead of spill over onto a second page and I can catch my breath for a bit.

    Sounds like you just might be safer going shaggy (unshaven) for a couple of days you could explain the scabbiness by claiming mange  ......now the question is how did you manage to get the messed up face?

    The messed up face I was born with... The cut was from a tree branch that I got into a fight with... Actually it's more complicated, but that is a good synopsis.

    I decided to shave... It was not so bad after I mopped up... Actually, it was okay, I carefully soaked off the dried blood and scabbiness and removed most of the crud when it was wet, then let it dry and I could carefully shave the spot afterwards with an electric razor.  Which is probably way too much information. Of course after I was done and realized my cheek didn't look as bad as it did yesterday, so I washed the remaining shaving cream off my face and forgot not to dry my face like I normally do and i made my cheek bleed again... I made mess of the nice bathroom towel... Which might have been a guest towel... It's burgundy so the blood stains blend in.

    It's looking much better now... The scratches, not my face... that still looks weird.

    I'm just putting this out there, but if anyone needs to sop up blood, use a burgundy guest towel... One- the staining is not noticeable on the burgundy fabric and two- it's a guest towel so they are usually full of dangerously sharp frills and embroidery and nobody will question why its bloodstained.

    Rather than keep either running away form it or ignoring it I decided to pay someone to come in and clear my patch up, as the recent storm had turned an untidy patch into a right mess with my junk all over the place and some that isn't mine having come to join it, plus half the side fence and the back gate crashed in as well and as it wasn't too robust to start with it fell into several pieces. The normal sort of stuff you get after a storm.

    As they were coming anyway, and were surprisingly reasonable I asked for some other stuff to be removed also.  That was where  we ended up with a problem. I have squatters.  The beehive, which had just been sitting there looking sort of ornamental is now being used, and of course the guys were not going to touch it,  So now I have to find someone who wants an elderly beehive, complete with bees, and is willing to come and collect it.

    No, its on the floor inside the window sitting on a plastic mat.  I got smart and had somebody 30 years younger do the heavy lifting.  I just held the window up. smiley

    It will sit there until late spring.  Someday I'll get ambitious and find a small table or box that will fit over it and provide a useful surface for something. enlightened
