You’ll save more time parking near a cart return than lapping the lot looking for a spot close to the store’s front door.

I live in a hot, dry, desert climate. We can plant as early as the end of February. I’ve had great success raising lettuce and carrots in raised garden boxes I built out of some spare wood. Tomatoes always seem to get attacked by green horn worms.

My third son became an advanced early reader because he wanted to play Warcraft with his older brothers, but we wouldn’t help him read any of the quests. That was all the motivation he needed to learn to read quickly.

I upgrade roughly every 2.5 to 3 years just because I can still usually sell my old iPhone for a reasonable amount to offset the cost of a new device in that timeframe. Go beyond that, and the market prices for used phones drops through the floor.

Told my kids that if they didn’t be lay down and go to bed I was going to put them on time out. Worked for about 6 months before one of them smartened up.

The Wii U was very easy to hack to allow HDD loading of games. We had hundreds of games in the library (maybe not all legally obtained).

Interesting fact I learned this week: if you have a water softener, It is very likely that the cold water in your kitchen sink does not run through the softener.

Make a meatloaf in the shape of a body part or small human. Serve with a butcher knife sticking out if it.

There were way more onions in the room than I expected watching that.

I manage a handful of rental units. Sometimes prospective renters think our rates are high until I explain the price includes sewer, water, and trash. Rates for some of those services are high in the area, so that represents at least $200/month if paid separately.

Don’t. Get the shot. Save lives. Save the economy. And find something else to wage a political war over.

My wife occasionally sleeps naked. Doesn’t do a thing for our intimacy because that’s a sign her anxiety is acting up so much that she can’t even stand clothes touching her.

I recently took my first real vacation since taking over management of a small utility company. My OOO message offered my personal cell number for emergencies only with the specific instruction that messages on the office line would be handled when I returned. I let a handful of calls to my cell go to voice mail then…

Or a settee?

There are rumors of an Apple product announcement event to be announced for March 23rd. I ordered a MacBook Air over the weekend, and the delivery date is the 16th-23rd. I’m starting to think current inventory is out of stock and I’m going to get an updated system announced at the 23rd event.

I don’t think I’ve ever met a dog that didn’t have a tennis ball. Seems like we’d have seen a number of pet mortalities by this point if this was really a concern.

I switched party registration over the weekend and posted links for my county on Facebook. Here’s a sampling of the comments “friends” left:

Perhaps some patriot staffer can suggest he increase his executive time.

My wife and I have retained in office, full-time jobs through everything. By most standards we’re doing great. No risk of losing our house, plenty of food. No one sick yet. However, she’s breaking down from the emotional stress. We have a previously straight A high school senior who is failing every class. Another…

I would like to take this moment to apologize to my guild for messing with my Eye of Kilrogg and wiping the 40-man group in Molten Core.
