For the past year or so, I've had my really old stereo receiver hooked up to the TV in the living room.  Being half worn out, the volume control didn't work with the remote, so I'd have to get up and change the volume with the knob on the receiver (it's the wife's TV, so meh...).  We got a new receiver, and I was trying to program it into the universal remote that came with our cable box.  Due to the fact that the instructions are in Engrish, I accidentally programmed it to control the volume with the cable box.  I never even knew the cable box had a volume control function!  So here we spent a year getting up to change the volume when we could have been nicely doing it with the remote via the cable box.

When I saw "Want to talk to a weirdo?"  I thought Doggett was giving out his phone number.  (Or maybe circus' number!  :wink: )

There's an automatic text thing on the google search bar. I was looking for Red Dwarf, but this thing called Red Tube came up.

In some ways, it's like you tube.

In other ways, less so.
                                             

If God exists, why did he make me an atheist? Thats His first mistake.

I'm bored. I feel like I should do something, something fun, that is.
But I have soul-crushing, boring tasks waiting to be carried out. :bluesad:

Savoury makes a surprising good condiment. Using too much gives me heartburn though.

I'm happy my grandfather in law is a potato farmer.  I have a 50 lb bag in my kitchen that I play to consume within a few months.

My sister found my copy of John Keel's book The Mothman Prophecies while cleaning her bookshelf.  I had just about given my copy up for lost, and was ready to buy a new copy.  I feel lucky.

Happy birthday Tor Johnson! I hope there's a cake big enough for you to wrestle atop in the afterlife.

But maybe I should resist the urge to give you advice on how to get the wax out of your rug.  Too mom-ish.

I can't resist it - throw a towel over it and iron up the wax.  It's ok though cuz i knew about that before I was a mom.
