Nowadays the hats can be black or white- the governor of Idaho frequently makes ads/TV and media appearances in a black cowboy hat. Of course, he has no idea how much the agricultural community laughs at him for it- but he still does it. It seems to be an intermountain west thing. (BTW- the gov I'm referring to is…

God, I hate rom-coms. Like, seriously LOATHE them. Maybe this is unfeminine or whatever, but...MORE EXPLOSIONS, please! And tractor-pulls. Tractor-pulls are so, so underrated in today's television programming. :)

*Giggling* God, it can't be the same guy...I mean, it's been like, 20 years, but...he sounds so much like one of my exes! This makes me appreciate my current life so much more. :)

Are you in Idaho, too? You speak with the same tone of disgust as I do... ;)

Wrong animal, wrong state...otters don't build dams. And sadly, even though many of us would like for it to happen, Oregon hasn't annexed this part of the state. (Yet. Still hopin'.)

Why do I feel like this list was written by Gwyneth Paltrow...?

Oh, Florida Woman, what *can't* you do...?

I wish someone would come up with a version of this, tailored to cyclists! Just because it's 43F out doesn't mean that your ears won't feel "brittle" by the time you get work. Knowing the windspeed and direction would be handy, too. :/

I used to work for Head Start- ran a kitchen that supplied food to 4 satellite locations, plus the main one for our city, with a total of close to 600 meals served per day. The USDA heavily encouraged us to plan our menus around "surplus" stocks they had, including all manner of interesting and frightening "meat"…
