I want clam dip. I grew up in New England where it’s common, but living in Minnesota, I can’t find it. My wife tried to buy me some, but the stuff turned out to be a can of clam bits and some weird ass dip mix that I needed to mix myself.

I want to use it, because while I like mint, dental floss “mint” is incredibly gross. I love dental picks that use the inch of floss, but I can’t find non-flavored dental pick. I have resorted to buying the gross kind, and soaking all of them in water for a few hours and then drying them for use.

Among the surface roots, if you have roots that cross over other roots, cut the top one. Any root that crosses over multiple roots, cut it, before it kills your tree. We had a 30-40 year old Norway Maple root that wrapped around the trunk for 12-18 inches, and by not cutting it, we lost the tree 3 years ago now.

My wife adds a teaspoon of coconut butter to her coffee.

Cops on ego trips don’t remain officers very long. Real officers don’t want them around.

Depends. Are you black, brown or Asian?

Wow.  Just wow.

Half & half because many coffee drinkers have a bottle in the fridge. We do, as well as the container of powdered coffee white-out in the pantry, for when you didn’t get to the store in time, before the half & half ran out.

These polygraph session questions are supposed to be answerable with yes or no responses in order to be “readable’. Elizabeth Olson I don’t think ever responded in a yes or no.

That’s where, as with all things, YouTube is your friend.

Really? Jose and the Pussycats?

I did that with Fresh Horses.

Don’t just stop at the toilet seat. If you have an older toilet that needs to be flushed multiple times in order to *ahem* move product, you need to replace the toilet. Toilets are pretty damned cheap, and 80% of the ones sold in this era flush really well. Anything in your house that predates you living in the house…

Missing from the article is the crousaint rolls, where you unroll the tube, tear on the dotted lines and roll back up to bake. These can be jazzed up with the melted butter brushed on before rolling back up. I’ve also sprinkled on grated cheese (nothing too mild that would get lost). You can also tuck them into shapes…

Fargo fans are going to Minnesota, where they can see many of the places where they filmed the movie. You can always stay at a lake (there’s 13,000 of them) and rent a wood chipper.

I’m calling out to the Twins to round off their silly ass $209 price. Drop it to an even 200, or round up to 225.

Washing your pillows every week? That increases the likely hood that that at some point you don’t dry them enough, and you get mold growth in your pillow. Breathing in mold is so much worse then a pillow getting yellow with age.

Costco employees smile, are helpful, and are happy to help you. Sam’s Club employees are sullen, and are rarely on the floor.

I recognize these; they’re pretty cool

Heat Stroke? Get a wash cloth and get it dripping with cool water, and lay it across the back of your neck, where it will do the most good, to cool down your brain.
