Works for me, flotsam - all 30 excruciating seconds of it...

A lovely voice, and not an artist I knew of: thank you.

Thanks for your post Mikael! Unfortunately, I have not yet bought the game. I hope somebody else is playing and will post their thoughts.

Thanks, Marian!

I really enjoyed Behind her eyes too. This season of The Rings of Power seemed much darker than season one to me. Amazon is really doing a good job on this series.

i'm with you on Silo flotsam. I just watched season one again to refresh my memory for the new season.

Thanks Ana!

Are we gonna get lucky with this next storm coming our way Connie. It is gonna depend on that low pressure dropping down and the shear within it. The Weather Channel and our locals are now calling for a tropical storm possibly a Cat 1 hitting the peninsula by Wednesday. We both know these storms can spin up very quickly. In the beginning they had Helene hitting the "Big Bend" as a Cat 1 or 2 and it hit as a 4. Now that it has become Tropical Depression Fourteen hurricane hunters will start to fly into it

I believe you said you have a generator. Have you started it lately. Generators have a tendency not to start if they have been sitting awhile. Old gas, 6 months, sitting in these clog the carburetor and have to be changed out or removed so they can be cleaned. Its rare but sometimes the spark plug needs to be replaced. I always run the gas out of it before stowing and start it up every 4 months or so

EDIT: An update with a cone and path making landfall in Tampa as a Cat 3, 120 mph. There is only room for rapid intensification they are saying possibly growing to a Cat 4. The path takes it through Orlando. This will probably change as the hurricane approaches the coastline

Okay, I wasn't expecting that one to prove so difficult: the answer was Priam, king of Troy and father of Paris - pram (wheeled carriage) containing i (one).

Here is a replacement to hopefully keep the ball rolling:

Triumphant as military displays spirit (8)

Perfectly done!

Thank you Old Broad. Wish I could mention you with a nicer moniker!

Thanks Marian!
