I like it when a website interferes with a right click to make copy/paste harder, yet CTL+C and CTL+V (or middle click) still work fine.

Q: I wonder if the capital of Kentucky is pronounced LEWIS-ville or LOUIE-ville?

A: It’s pronounced Frankfort.

(Brian actually heard this on a bus one time)

auntie mary’s spicy elixir

I got this from Nora’s African Groceries (Durham, North Carolina) while I was waiting in a shopping center for check in time at a nearby hotel.

It’s Auntie Mary’s refreshing Sorrel Ginger drink. It’s moderately spicy. To me it tastes like black cherry a little.

I would really enjoy a vegetarian Crunchwrap Supreme from Taco Bell with this drink.

Other people handle issues better than I, so I do my thing, often using satire, irony, repartee, etc. Mad Magazine like. If someone labels me frivolous or fatiguing, I’ve done my job.

Lo hago con amor.

let’s play The Feud

Brian and I often enjoy Family Feud (TV show) while relaxing over dinner. It’s fun to shout out our own answers, sometimes quite vulgar ones. “Penis” fits with about anything.

A good question from the last show we watched:

We asked a hundred men, “what language would you like to secretly learn in 30 days to impress your spouse?”

I shouted out, “Urdu, Swahili, Navajo, Sign, Esperanto”.

The contestants played it safe with French and Spanish. You gotta try to win that Ford. 🚗 💰

hungry howie’s so proud of data cleverness

Hungry Howie’s Pizza bought a mailing list based on Brian’s date of birth. That doesn’t make me want the product, it gives me the creeps.

It’s better not to brag that you can buy and know so much. Just because it’s for sale doesn’t mean you have to buy it.
