Does your gut hang over the keyboard?
Are some of your keys a little... uh, sticky? Do you have spiders on the ceiling? Have you ever been to Manchuria?

Went white water rafting down in Jim Thorpe, PA today. Hot day cold water. Nice.

My sister just checked in from the top of Devil's Tower. She is ON TOP of Devil's Tower at this very moment.

Glatt's sister's name is David.
It's bullshit, though. Anyone who has seen "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" knows Devil's Tower is hollow.

Momdigr came back a couple weeks ago from a trip to see family. For one, I'm happy she made the 700 mile round trip with no complications, as she's 65 and drove there by herself.
For two, GreatAuntieDigr sent me, ME, a quilt made by my great-grandmother before my mother was born. I was stunned just by her generosity. And then I saw the quilt. It looks like it was made yesterday. Not so much as a popped stitch anywhere. The colors absolutely pop, no fading, or aging. None. Even the white backing, no stains, no discoloration, whatsoever. Nice and heavy, too, I mean, you could roll this thing up and really clobber somebody. It's kind of mindboggling, really. This is a ~70-75+ year old quilt that, literally, looks brand new. Go, go, Greatgrandmadigr!!!

That's worth the drive.

And it's good looking! I'd put that on my bed.

For that quilt, I'd join Grav underneath it!
I bought some popcorn from a local discount store. Cost me 40p. 40p wasted, as it was grim - a new flavour they are trying out which I don't think works. Anyway, as it was made by the largest English crisp makers, who pride themselves on their name and the quality of their products, although they are now owned by Frito-Lay. I returned the empty bag explaining I didn't like the taste or texture ("It was like something you would find at the back of a dead relative's wardrobe") and sat back to see if I would get anything back. I did. 2 x £2.50 vouchers. Only to be used on their products, no change given. But still. They make Doritos in this country, as well as the standard crisps everyone thinks of automatically. And Wotsits (cheesy puffs) and Monster Munch and the rest. Bless you, Walkers Crisps. This was not a cynical exercise - I really didn't expect a refund of such munificence. But they have done exactly what I'd hoped; redeemed themselves in my eyes and made me willing to try any new lines which they bring out. Except maybe popcorn.

That quilt looks unused, maybe they only bring it out for special occasions.

When someone brought back an axe with a broken fiberglass handle, to Dad's hardware store, the manufacturer's instructions were to give them a new axe, and dispose of the head. I had so many axes I rehandled, I was giving them away down here.
