Frustration is being short in a world made up of shelves.
I went to the store yesterday. Middle of the afternoon. I should have known better, but I needed to. Friday evening & Saturday we were under all kinds of snow & blowing snow weather alerts. Panic time started then, so everyone went to the stores [...]

A thankless (and payless) job…..

Is a plumber that has to work his own trade at home. Picture this:
Six months past, a 75 gallon, commercial, high recovery, water heater is obtained. It’s installed, and put in line with the original 50 gallon residential heater. Water comes from the 50 first, then the 75, when the first is drained by use.
After [...]

Yesterday, Joe was working at the Residence Inn, installing a new hydrant on the building. They, of course, have a fire alarm. Natural thing to have in a hotel. He was reminded beforehand to have the system shut down, BEFORE he lit his torch. He knew this, & had planned on it. He was in [...]

For some reason known only to the originators, lawmakers are considering expanding the home invasion law, “Make My Day” to include the businesses & cars, as well. They call it the “Make My Day Better” law.
I see this as a license to kill. All a person has to do is say they feel threatened, & [...]

Everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion, as long as they remember 1 important fact. Everyone has one!
I had deleted a response to an entry, but I found that I acted too quickly. So I put it back. (See, Steve? Even an I can learn a new trick now & again.)
I have to remember that I’m [...]
Wal-Mart a good neighbor?

I hardly think so, but I’m not without my own prejudices when it comes to this store.
Years ago, I did shop at Wal-Mart. Not now, & I don’t see it happening in the future, either. They are “updating” their look, but are they updating their basic operations? No.
If you want to buy cheaply made goods, [...]

I’ve been told to stay in the house today. Last night, we didn’t get snow, we got a light rain that’s frozen over, causing ice everywhere. Joe called when they got in the truck, he fell on the decorative rocks in the front. My bruises from the last fall are starting to heal up. I [...]
Impeach Bush!

With that done, then Cheney would see the writing on the wall, & straighten up & act right. Or, he’ll get chicken & desert. We could do better with the liberal grandmother from San Francisco, then we can with Bush lying us into another front of war. This time with Iran.
Ok, there is “proof” that [...]
How do you gross out a plumber???

By asking him to clean up the mess left by an ill child in the auditorium, during the service. Projectile ill, all over the floor & 2 pews.
Chris was in his Sunday School class, & he was summoned out by one of the elders of the church. Seems a kid was sitting by his parents [...]
How did she…..

The Aquatics manager at a PetsMart store had to have lucked into her position, instead of working for it, from what I heard yesterday.
I got a call from Casco (California Aquatics Supply Co) yesterday. The tech on duty needed Chris to go to a store & see where the system was sucking air from. They actually had [...]
