So basically, after last night, I know what it feels like to be a delicious rack of barbeque ribs.

mmmmmm.... riiiiiibs....

I have a craving for ribs now.

If you can get that link I posted above to load, the fire is right at the transmission towers right now. Those towers provide basically cell phone reception for half of los angeles, some 20+ radio stations, all local TV for L.A., and so on. There's also a very nice observatory there that is under threat.

And that's close to you? Is it going away from you?

 

I can't get it to load, but I'll try again.

Yeah, it's not going to threaten me, but breathing around here has been a disaster. I'm somewhat glad I'm escaping tomorrow for a couple days.

I finally did get it to load. Dang, that's smokey. We were watching the hilarity that is "Ten Commandments" as we were flipping through channels tonight... and the TBN broadcast was asking for devine intervention - their Mt. Wilson tower was being effected. Oh noes! :lol:

 

So I spent all weekend cleaning/packing/moving/unpacking. What a major pain in the ass. Haven't done this in a few years, didn't realize how much it sucks. On a positive note, I had been planning on driving down to NYC for the Sox games, so I guess I spared myself another kind of annoyance and pain.

So while cutting the grass at my mom's house, the lawnmower blew up today. The gasket blew, and oil came pouring out of it. That can't be good for it...

A little duct tape should do the trick.

I get to mow the grass at the recently abandoned neighbor's house. That's exciting for me. :(

Cut dirty words into the lawn.

That reminds me of the times when I f***ed up yard equipment...I would say I have no idea how that happened...it just stopped working...and started on fire....and ended up in the pool... :huh

Yea, "buy me". That sounds pretty good. I wonder if that would work?

 

I'll give them $10 for it. I hear the neighbors are real dicks.

I remember I would do the same to my lawnmower. Eventually my mom gave up trying.

Does this happen to you? You walk into a public restroom stall and find the toilet full of s*** and tp, so you assume it must be broken. You hit the handle and woosh, it works perfectly.

Why is that people don't flush toilets in public restrooms when they're done? Do they do this at home too? Is there some kind of childish thrill out of making the next person have to look at your s***?

That happens to me AT WORK.

 

 

Some people use the excuse that the auto flush didnt pick up and flush for them, but damn, it isnt as if you dont notice that the toilet didnt flush

Same thing with faucets that don't have the sensor. Walk into the restroom, faucet blasting away at full power, no one there.

I wish someone made an ironing board for people taller than 5'6". They are all too short and not long enough for my pants.

They don't because that is women's work... duh.

I have that problem with showers. I get into a shower in a hotel and its at about chest level.

 

**Random complaint**

 

My Lord. I wouldn't mind seeing stricter restrictions in becoming a member of this site. How about at least 8th grave level grammar.
