<sigh>Yes, I know that. We were having a bit of fun.

Remember that since this is a leap year, February has 30 days this year.

“____ has been axed at Netflix after just one season.”

Clove oil can work great for toothache. When my wife had her wisdom teeth out several years ago, the dentist actually recommended putting a wad of gauze soaked in clove oil on a troublesome socket, and she said it helped a lot.

Roku isn’t obscure in the U.S. It has the largest market share of streaming devices by a large margin, almost twice the next most popular platform.

Also, you can use an ad blocker with a privacy-focused rule list, and use a privacy browser plug-in such as Privacy Badger.

I was happy to see that both my favorite movie (Back To The Future) and one the best movies I’ve seen (Do The Right Thing) are on the list. The other one on my best list is Apocalypse Now.

In-N-Out?

Like several others here, I suggest California Olive Ranch. It’s easily available (even at Walmart here), affordable, and pretty darn good. I really like the grassy, peppery flavor of a good EV olive oil.

For us, probably about a week in general. We often freeze single or double servings of soup after a couple of days, since it’s a thing that tends to get made in larger batches. We’ve been eating lentil stew for the past few days, and it’s about time to freeze the rest of that, because I think I’ve had enough for a…

We found a small frog in the bathroom a couple of years ago. Not really sure how it got there, unless it got into the attic through an eave vent, then into the bathroom fan that used to go into the attic (I’ve since fixed that situation so it vents outside like it should).

I don’t know, I grew up in the Midwest (Southern Illinois), and 99 Luftballons was relatively popular here. I even heard both the English and German versions when I was in HS.

Gen X: We’re still bitter about disco

Oh, the dumb things we did as kids. I was just remembering being a HS freshman and riding in the trunk along with a girl to a church youth group event. We had the car packed with kids, and the only place we would fit was in the trunk. It was probably an Olds Delta 88. It seemed like half the families in town had one…

Not exactly a sound coming from the car itself, but I think it should be illegal for radio stations to play car horn or siren sounds. Almost any time it happens, it jolts me with adrenaline as I jerk my head around to see if somebody is about to hit me. I’d rather they play Carlin’s 7 words, but get fined by the FCC fo…

Yep, it has been majority Republican-appointed since 1968. I was born in ‘66, and Democrats have controlled the government (meaning control of 2 out of the 3 branches) only 8 years during my lifetime.

I graduated from HS in ‘84. Lots of feelings of nostalgia reading this. It’s missing my early HS uniform, though, of jeans, t-shirt, and unbuttoned flannel shirt. I probably wore that at least 50% of the time my freshman and sophomore years.

Really worth watching:

In general, you should probably avoid places named Centralia. Besides Centralia, PA, there are these. (I live in one of them.)

Cream, sugar, eggs, and vanilla premixed in one convenient package :-)
