There used to be a commercial for Starkist tuna, and the tuna’s name was Charlie, and Charlie repeatedly tried to get the attention of the Starkist brand. At the end of every commercial a voiceover would say, “Sorry Charlie!” It...

Ali Canary I remember the "Sorry, Charlie!" commercial, and I could never figure out why Charlie wanted to be eaten so badly. Maybe he didn't understand what was involved, lol

Tampa Florida resident Tom Rahill won a huge prize of $10,000 dollars after he removed 96 pythons from the Everglades National Park. The Florida Fish Wildlife and Conservation Commission (FWC) held an event that lasted 10 days...

Ali Canary Yep, Burmese pythons are pretty big. They aren't particularly aggressive to people (the ones in the Everglades probably all came from released pets), but any animal who is an invasive species can wreck an ecosystem.

Ali Canary How odd. I wonder if she is on some sort of public assistance that requires her to work every so often. Or maybe she has trouble focusing?

Another night, another song with a natural disaster in the lyrics. How uplifting, I know. What’s next, ten death songs? Don’t tempt me. I can do it. Tonight we venture into Hurricane Season, with the Scorpions’ 1984...

Ali Canary "No One Like You" is my favorite by them, but yeah, "Rock You Like a Hurricane" probably has more oomph. "The Zoo" is pretty good, too. Kind of an anthem, even!

I was inspired this morning by a MyLotter who is working on a medium-term project. I decided to start a new set of coasters. As many MyLotters know, I like to make coasters out of acoustic guitar sound holes, sent to me (for...

Ali Canary I don't think I knew her, but if you can get $30/pair for those, that's pretty cool.

It has been thundering quite a bit outside, but no rain that I have noticed. The sky was quite dark a little while ago, but it's sunny, now, so I think the storm is moving away. I kind of like hearing thunder, especially at night,...

Ali Canary It's terrible! It's in the 90s every day right now. I can take a shower to cool off, but I'm always worried about the food in the fridge and freezer.

Ali Canary You might be able to find something like it. Rechargeable battery technology is so common, now. Mine came from Amazon but Ali Baba probably has them.

Ali Canary @snowy22315 perhaps they wanted to move back all of the reservations a bit so that the people who had actually booked it for this month could still have their ceremony? That's all I can figure if it indeed was some sort of building problem.

Ali Canary @snowy22315 that is very odd. Maybe something went wrong at the venue, like faulty wiring was discovered, or there was flooding from a leak.
