Sharpie markers are now allowed for signing legal documents... Random facts floating through the brain.

They've been used to draw embarrassing pictures on friends' faces for years though

I'm starting to get a cold I think. I've got a little scratch in my throat and nose is starting to run. I had a good lunch at Applebee's and now I'm wishing I had a Frappuccino or Frappe. I think sometimes colds can make me a bit thirsty. I should have stopped at McDonald's or Arco AMPM which has a great blended coffee drink.

Just watched a young girl walk past my desk at work carrying a box slightly more than one third her size in front of her like a baby. Have carts and hand trucks become a thing of the past? I see it all the time - people, mostly young, foregoing shopping carts and other transport aids and just carrying stuff by hand. Are they just embarrassed to be seen with carts? They're worried about appearances? Well, that would be dumb. First of all, nobody cares. It's not a sign of weakness to use a cart to help carry stuff - it's called being smart.

If you ask me....I think they might just be that lazy and don't want to bother getting one or returning it after they are done with it.

Did they have shopping carts back in the 1800s? I don't think so. The number one reason why people are so effing soft today is their reliance on shopping carts. Seriously! lol j/k Maybe she was hoping some strong, good looking and single fella would offer her a hand and then let it go from there

Oh yeah, my mind. Mmm...don't say it...muh, muh, muh...God no! Muh muh muh...please?! Muh, muh...oh dear...MOTORCYCLE
There, all better

But in all seriousness, I heard that they got rid of iTunes. The store isn't on my iPhone 14. I believe it's Apple music. I'm not sure if it's available on my iPod Touch. I do know that I have it on my computer and I prefer that. I like to cherry pick songs here and there and own them. I've used Pandora a few times years back but otherwise, I've never belonged to a music subscription service; well other than Colombia House and BMG.
I'm just surprised that I can still access iTunes when I thought I heard it was done with.

I have many investments in the USA, because it's generally an excellent place to invest.
I like Hong Kong too.

What do you have?

Ha, yeah a little late. I ended up going with Training Day.

I had a VA appointment today. I thought it was with a different doctor but it turned out to be my primary care physician. About fifteen minutes ago, I ended up getting a call from the doctor that I thought I was going to see. I had an EKG done a few months ago and I never got the results back. So the doctor that ordered it called me and we were talking for a couple minutes and she asked me why I didn't get the EKG done today and that's what I was going there for. Again, I went there today to see my PCP. Anyway, I ended up flipping out on her and now I feel bad. I have met her once and she's a nice lady but I blew up pretty good and now it's time for bed

Years ago, when it was still pretty new, my father gave me an Amazon Echo for my birthday. I took it home and mailed it back to Amazon. A year or two later, I told my father and explained that I did not want Amazon to have a record of the number of times and volume of my farts.

Amazon ends little-used privacy feature that let Echo users opt out of sending recordings to company

What is the model?

HAPPY SPRING! Of course, I am sick. I hope I can make the hockey game next week. I should be safe for the Knicks game as it's 10 days away.

Do you have a player capable of DV? You def won’t be losing anything by upgrading your tv to a DV panel.
