Van Appointment

 

Yesterday evening I dropped off my van at my mechanic's. Usually I drop it off the day before my appointment, then they can better fit it in to a time slot. I leave the van there, my son picks me up. When it is done, Lisa calls me up, my son drives me back and away we go. I needed summer tire put on, an oil change and the bi-annual safety check. If I need something else because of the safety check they will call me. 

Got my van back. |Needed windshield wipers.

Saw a Cardinal in the back yard, the bird, not the baseball player.

 

Ripped Jeans

 

You know, I think the upper class and the rich people are a lot smarter than the average person. Let's face it, they have to be, to make people believe that wearing rags is fashionable. In the time of my parents and grandparents, men working in the coal mine, worked hard so that their children did not have to wear rags. They would be disappointed and ashamed.

How can anyone possibly get rid of silly thoughts?

 

Family Photos

 

Photos in your wallet. Do you carry who you love with you?

 

If you cut a piece out of the side of your bathtub so you can step in, I guess it is no longer a bathtub.

I don't have a bucket list. Come to think of it, I don't even have a bucket.

Free Will

 

When a man believes he knows |God's will and is resolved to do it, then he is the most dangerous man in the world. 

Unused Stamps

 

Got a piece of mail today and the stamp was unmarked. Will reuse it. Easy $1.00. That's the second in a week.

Books

 

Lots of dreams last night. I actually remembered them for awhile.

Once is a decision, twice is a choice.

What most people eat as Turnips is actually Rutabaga

 

If you watch German detective shows, you have to be prepared for nudity.

8 other times ships have run into problems in the Suez Canal. Delays have lasted hours, days and even years in canal's long history

 

A lot of people have problems and they don't know anyone who has the time to listen.

My son and I have been on six cruises and been to Rome three times and we never had spaghetti on any of these trips because we don't believe it will be as good as how my wife makes it.

I love history, there's so much of it.

A Burst of Vitamins

Amazon Vitamins

Just before supper yesterday, I took some vitamins. The thing is, one got stuck in my throat. Not a big problem, it would eventually fall apart but it was uncomfortable. Drank water three times to no avail. I didn't want to eat anything till it was gone, didn't want more problems. After awhile I could feel it breaking apart. I gave a little cough and out came a cloud of white dust. That was funny. I looked like Puff the Dragon. 

Poker or Faro

 

Every western movie has gotten it wrong. Cowboys did not play poker in the 1800s but a game called Faro. Faro was invented outside the United States and after being imported, gained popularity.
