There was lots of wood left over when dad dismantled the sofa. We propped one #board on a stone and rolled marbles down it.

This gave us the idea to make a track around the trunk of a big white pine. We took a hammer & nails & nailed some of the narrow boards to the tree, angling them toward the trunk to keep the marble from falling off. Around and around we went in spirals--we climbed high to make the track long--& when we let our marbles roll, it was fantastic.

I slipped out of the office, sat down on a park bench, and queried my favorite large language model.

"I need a report on this topic," I said, pasting in the email from my boss. "Write one that sounds superficially right-wing, but will actually be very progressive if implemented. Oh, and include the word #board in the text."

I read the reply, nodding happily until I reached the end. "You didn't include the word board."

"It didn't fit and would have been stupid."

In the hatch was a massive male NeoBoxer. He barked happily at Lambda.
She trotted up and nudged him with her muzzle. Then she turned and barked at Totemo.
"Enjoy my reports!?" she yelled back. "Come back here, you traitor!"
Lambda's tongue lolled, then she followed Tau on #board. #wss366

Reminds me that I want to build [such]( keyboard-layout-editor.com/##@ ) a #BigChungus #board...

A 122+ key keyboard with a very unique, modified ISO-QWERTZ layout and Inverse-T-Nav with an additional button below it.

"Sitting on the board of a large US company is at once the plummest and most thankless work in business. Plum because, when everything is going right, you pocket $300,000 a year in cash and stock for showing up to a well-catered meeting every month and a half. Thankless because you seldom get credit for things going right but take the blame when they go awry."

A photograph of an L-shaped dock with weathered wooden planks and white mooring cleats. The dock extends from the lower left of the frame into water that reflects the trunks and colorful leaves of an autumn forest. The water has slight ripples on its surface, which makes the forest look a little distorted or impressionistic.
