    Adams Rubble: Good morning Riddle :)
    Riddle Sideways: back, had a small crash
    Adams Rubble: yes, I saw
    Adams Rubble: I was a witness
    Riddle Sideways: ah, good to have a witness
    Adams Rubble: hope I do not have to go to court
    Adams Rubble: we are having the first rainy day in a long time
    Adams Rubble: all the plants are dancing
    Riddle Sideways: had not been counting, but bet they are
    Adams Rubble: they all had their tongues hanging out before
    Riddle Sideways: so sad to see
    Adams Rubble nods
    Riddle Sideways: but now they got a good drink
    Riddle Sideways: not sure when it will rain here
    Adams Rubble: your native plants are more used to long dry spells that our native plants
    Adams Rubble: native weather getting all mixed up these days though
    Riddle Sideways: the natives aren't what they used to be
    Riddle Sideways: even the weeds have moved over to where the drip system gives some water
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Riddle Sideways: very tough to get by as a native
    Riddle Sideways: need to be strong
    Adams Rubble: and compassionate
    Riddle Sideways: need to be like a camel without water
    Riddle Sideways: and taste bad to deer
    Adams Rubble: ohh, native plants
    Adams Rubble: deer are native
    Adams Rubble: there's the rub
    Riddle Sideways: mountain lions were native too
    Adams Rubble: oh yes
    Adams Rubble: my ancestors worked hard to try to wipe them out
    Riddle Sideways: people are all upset here at having reports of cat sightings
    Riddle Sideways: lock up your children
    Adams Rubble: and some lady went into the lion cage at the Bronx Zoo
    Riddle Sideways: some small voice said there have been 4 people hurt by mt. lions in the past 100 years
    Riddle Sideways: oh dear
    Riddle Sideways: those homeless will go anywhere
    Adams Rubble: lion enclosure--it was outside
    Adams Rubble: no no, not homeless
    Adams Rubble: probably not totally without some kind of substance
    --BELL--
    Riddle Sideways: the pause took most of the stupid retorts away
    Riddle Sideways: a good thing
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Riddle Sideways: besides, last week was all about Climate Change Week. meetings, talks, protests, reports and lack of reports
    Riddle Sideways: this week we can be over that
    Adams Rubble: oh?
    Riddle Sideways: well thought to try that angle
    Riddle Sideways: did not go so good
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Riddle Sideways: the list of very important things to keep thinking about is getting soooo long
    Adams Rubble: it is the week of moats with alligators and snakes and shooting people in the legs
    Riddle Sideways: oh! had not read a newspaper in a while
    Adams Rubble slaps herself in the head for starting down political path
    Riddle Sideways: probably much more pointing off in wrong directions to distract us short attention span people
    Riddle Sideways: *US
    Riddle Sideways: *citizens
    Adams Rubble: this one was not supposed to come out :)
    Riddle Sideways: let some cat out of some bag?
    Adams Rubble: yes, a ranting cat
    Adams Rubble: I guess you saw Dubrovna's email about the new museum
    Riddle Sideways: no, but thought it was coming soon
    --BELL--
    Riddle Sideways: found it
    Riddle Sideways: the email
    Adams Rubble: It opened
    Riddle Sideways: Great
    Adams Rubble: would you like to go visit? no one else is likely to come here
    Riddle Sideways: should remember to scan emails for good stuff
    Riddle Sideways: wha? and miss the important stuff that 'might' be siad?
    Adams Rubble: we can say it there :)
    Adams Rubble: we can switch to IM
    Riddle Sideways: ok, off to it
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Riddle Sideways: by Listener

    But there was another listener for the second half

    Adams Rubble: Welcome to the new Museum Annex :)

    Adams Rubble: wrong way
    Adams Rubble: this way
    Riddle Sideways: had to check the hole
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Riddle Sideways: and 2 notecards

    The Linden land next to the road is very choppy with some deep holes. Dubrovna tried to build a bridge but the Lindens did not allow it. Two notecards describing the museum and the exhibit are given toeach visitor.

    Adams Rubble: it takes a while to rezz into a new location
    Riddle Sideways: yes, slow to rezz everything
    Riddle Sideways: like it
    Adams Rubble: the first floor is mostly Shiva and the Devi with a little Trimurti and Brahma

    Riddle Sideways: like the building and its high windows
    Adams Rubble: Dubrovna tried to fit in with the surrounding architecture
    Adams Rubble: it is a nice airy feeling - good for Hindu art :)
    Riddle Sideways: slide shows aid in less wall space needed :)
    Adams Rubble nods

    Adams Rubble: the second floor is devoted to Vishnu and his avatars
    Riddle Sideways: and a monkey
    Adams Rubble: :)

    Riddle Sideways: think one of the hover text labels is not quite right
    Adams Rubble: hover text?
    Adams Rubble: where?
    Riddle Sideways: when these red framed thing is hovered over
    Riddle Sideways: it says as Boar
    Riddle Sideways: shouldn't it be Matsya fish
    Adams Rubble: it is slow to rezz for me
    Adams Rubble: I will pass it off to Dubrovna though
    Riddle Sideways: sorry, do not want to upset
    Adams Rubble: no, please do, important to get everything right
