RIP Astro, we hardly knew ye...

There's a Chipotle that opened recently where I live. I haven't stopped in, though. There's another place that does burritos, bowls, nachos, etc. the same way and I've been there a few times. Great food, and you can build a pretty healthy, tasty meal with the right choices.

I know in the one ep of South Park. Cartman kept eating it and craping blood. But he still kept eating it and having his mom buy him new Underwear all the time. Because it's just that good he said.

Still can't decide if I like watching my blu-rays at 120 hrz?

"I really wish I could sleep." My mind is just always racing with a million different things in it. It's bad enough that I go at top speed physically with no breaks, but come on, brain...

I much prefer Qdoba. My one and only experience at Chipotle was not the best.

Qdoba and Moe's have more value than Chipotle since you get more food. The only thing Chipotle had going for it (for me) was that their chicken was really good, but because of their recent string of food poisoning outbreaks I'm pretty much put off from going to Chipotle for a long time.

I just got a package delivered from Amazon by the USPS...on a Sunday. What the hell?

They have a deal with USPS for 7 day delivery, have for over a year. I get Sunday packages every few weeks now since the change over. It's similar to USPS old express mail Sunday-special service that went out around a decade ago.

I don't think they are happy about it. Every time I see a Sunday delivery guy they are always speeding down streets, screeching around corners, and literally throwing the packages at the door from the street (as much at 50 feet). It makes me laugh.

Probably not, they more than likely make them cover a larger delivery area given the people getting deliveries is vastly smaller. I hope they get decent overtime pay for it.

The USPS might use part-time employees to deliver on Sunday to avoid paying for overtime. This service just complements the other services they were already providing.

Noodling around with what I'm going to eat before I go to my 9th viewing of MJ2. Also considering buying 4 films from Hastings in their B1G1 sale with selling a copy of Wedding Ringer for Store Credit to make it all much cheaper.

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope your family handles the loss well.

My great-uncle who lived with me (stroke victim) died this morning. My dad was checking on him to give him his morning drink and get him some breakfast but he was already passed. I went in and saw him and checked to make sure he just had not had another stroke, but he was gone. I've made funeral arrangements already this morning and they've came and took the body and all that stuff. Hoping to have services around Tuesday. It's just down to me, mom & dad and my grandmother. Life...

I don't LIKE most of my family because they're well...rude. I just can't imagine having such a small living family and I come from a tiny family as it is.

Groot and Arnie, I'm so very sorry for the loss of your loved ones. My love, prayers, and best wishes are with you and your families. I hope you both are able to stay strong and get through this difficult time alright.

My old man. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer a little over 2 years ago. He had an operation to remove it, however it was discovered shortly after that a small amount still remained. They couldn't locate exactly where. He had to have radiotherapy, which they thought would probably eliminate it. Unfortunately it didn't. More treatment followed, mostly stronger radiotherapy, but were also unsuccessful. The problem is, there had to be some time between finishing one lot of treatments and beginning more. I spoke with him this morning, he told me that he went for some more tests last week, and that the cancer has now spread to his lungs, which can't be operated on, just treated. So it seems that it will end up taking his life, question now is just how long.

He turned 60 last August, and is extremely fit for his age. He is a carpenter/builder, which he has done for all his life. He is and has always been a non smoker. Kayaking is hobby of his, and is a big part of his life. He races multiple times a week, and regularly comes first, second or third, beating guys half his age. His good health has helped him a lot through his battle with cancer, hopefully this helps in keeping him around for longer.

Anyway... time to toughen up.
