Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else. -Margaret Mead

Just random...

Yup, its real. 4 leaves.

Everyday, I am amazed how Arizona drivers demonstrate their inability to grasp the concept of merging traffic. It's "I go,then you go." What's so hard about that?

How can the burgers be "Fresh Flame Broiled" if the damn broiler machine is never on?  Or does it beep like a microwave oven... Teenie tiny flame broilers.  The great big one must just be for show.

I told you those damn computer storage "clouds" weren't secure.  Now the NSA has copies of all your naked "selfies".

I text you when it's something I want you to read at your convenience. Not while you're driving.
I email you to give you the details that are too long and involved to text.
I call you to apologize for not texting or emailing you.
I don't tweet.  It's just silly.

Does anyone really think that "liquid smoke" makes anything taste better?  It just gives me the "liquid smoke" burps the rest of the day.

After having been married and divorced twice, I was asked if I would ever marry again.  I suppose the person was insinuating the "third time's a charm" rule.  My answer is no, I don't think so.  instead, every 10 years or so, I'm just going to put half of my stuff out on the curb.  At least that way I get to pick what goes.

Windows 8 = Windows ME you can touch.

Why is it that my cable company only agreed to lower my monthly bill AFTER I cancelled my cable?  Really!  I had done everything to keep my bill below $100 a month until I finally didn't have enough left to make it worth keeping. NOW I get emails and snail mail adverts telling me how inexpensive my cable would be if I came back... Too late.  I invested in a TV antenna and a ROKU.

I just set up a ROTH IRA on one of the trading sites and I'm looking at the stocks I can invest in on the market.  Perhaps someone can explain to me why the stock price of General Motors ( a company that had to be bailed out by the federal government or go bankrupt) is nearly twice that of the Ford Motor Company that remain solvent and needed no bailout during the entire financial crisis?  Do these people really believe that GM learned anything?  Or do they just think that they haven't lost enough money in the markets.

This is the time of year when I have to find five things to give up so I can have my eggnog and brandy at bedtime and not gain weight... *sigh*

My veterinarian closed or moved or something.  Anyway he's gone and I had to put my 16 1/2 year old dog down after she had a stroke followed by a seizure the next day.  I contacted a local pet hospital that came very well recommended.   They were very nice and patient and took care of all the grizzly details after I sat with my dog and watched her pass.  My problem is, now they are sending me discount dog healthcare coupons... ?

Enough for now.  Be Well.
