  1. I had to think about the punchline for a second before I got it. Still not sure I did. Lol
  2. Yeah, I've heard... Really, Spring snowstorms are common in Colorado and nothing to be shocked about, but we went a few years without and everyone seems to have forgotten. Plus, we have a hell of a lot of transplants who are clueless. However, I can certainly do without a repeat of the recent Bomb Cyclone. Good news is that my windshield is replaced.

    Like You

    You might be surprised at how receptive someone will be towards you. Attitude and mindset are important factors, more so than physical attributes - or lack thereof.
  4. This is one of my favorites by Gary.

    Money Talks

    The toy firetruck, despite its plastic construction, annoyed the hell out of Ben as it repeatedly rammed against his foot. He tolerated the disruption for a while, flipping through a travel magazine, only half-acknowledging the articles inside while his mind churned over the state of Travis. But it didn't take long for his patience to reach its pinnacle. Slamming the magazine shut, he peered down at the tow-headed toddler on the floor and barked, "Hey, buddy, my boot's not a flippin' roadblock,
  6. The AirBnB we stayed in was right out of an IKEA vignette. Furniture, cabinets, dinnerware, silverware, bedding, lighting, even the art on the walls - all IKEA. Only thing missing was the meatballs in the freezer.
  7. Happy Birthday @mollyhousemouse and @Reader1810. I hope the day has been special for you both.
  8. Most likely a rock. A sizeable one.
  9. While driving today, something hit my windshield fast and hard on the driver's side, right in front of my face. Had it come through the glass, I would not be here right now. Lots of tiny shards everywhere, including on me, and a totaled windshield, but I'm good. Pissed, but good.
  10. Oh, and I hope you're starting to feel better, @Wayne Gray.
  11. So often I wish my eyes had camera capability. Then, an actual camera would be unnecessary, and a flash moment could be easily captured and archived. I suppose there's some wearable device, like Google Glasses, that has this feature. But I'd like to just blink and have an instant snapshot.
  12. Yet another great Triple A, Carlos! Thanks for putting it together. Many great authors, many great responses. My own response is far too philosophical for a Wednesday morning.

    Lyric

    This is a wonderful lyric, Mike. You've expressed the struggle of waiting and wondering about your boy very powerfully here. Strong piece.
  15. It's very challenging to work in groups in online classrooms. Be sure your instructor is aware that no one is participating as planned.
  16. Damn, that looks just like what I woke up to yesterday. However, by late afternoon, it was mostly melted. I hope that's the case for you.
  17. Just a bit. Any peeping tom spying on our room better be ready for a surprise.
  18. Are you not feeling well, my girl? I did not know.
  19. Damn, I know. I fixed it. Here.
  20. sean and I are going to an AirBnB tomorrow for a couple of nights. This article popped up in my news feed this morning.
