    I would hate to drive in the Colonies. Just seems very chaotic.

    It doesn’t take much to send a car airborne

    Yup. We had a dusting of snow Thursday and a pickup truck did a rollover. Also, one time, I saw a random truck hit the curb and flip over. Craziest thing. Still don't know what happened.

    One video shows a small car hit a gate just creeping along, hit a gate and flip.


    Never stand near big 18 wheeler tires—they are bombs.

    Scammers are active. Local shops are finding credit card skimmers on their card readers. So frustrating to have to be constantly on the lookout for this nonsense.

    Cleaned the house from top to bottom because hubby's aunt was going to come over tomorrow (he's fixing her computer). It worked out perfectly, because I have tomorrow off, and I rarely get Saturdays off.

    Vacuumed, mopped, cleaned kitchen counters, cleaned bathrooms...and just found out that she's not coming.

    Dang it.

    At least I have a tidy house.

    I've had sutuations like that, and you feel all your efforts were in vain.

    Sounds like the husband could give you a massage or two as compensation for all your hard work.

    My wife goes mad cleaning if we are having guests over, it's not like it's not clean anyway but she seems to feel the need to spend hours on her hands and knees cleaning.

    I tell her every time our home is lived in, its clean, toilets and bathroom clean etc etc, yeah if you go hunting you might find some dust but if our guests choose to go hunting for muck they can do one, take us as you find us.

    If it helps, if you hadn't cleaned the house, she would likely have shown up. Because that seems to be the way things work.

    Why the fresh hell do all these medical ads have to keep saying "moderate to severe"? Is that some kind of magical code phrase? :lol:

    What's worse is when people IN THE ADS say it! "To treat my moderate to severe [insert name of mutant medical condition]". You're the one who's sick, dude. Which one is it?

    And why do they always have to keep using actors? It's clearly not for their acting ability, since PORN has more realistic dialogue than these ads do..

    Oh, and on an unrelated matter: That fucking "dollop of Daisy" jingle (from the sour cream commercial) may just be the most annoying song ever written. Whoever wrote it should face some kind of penalty, such as death. :mad:
