Walmart Can Do Better

Jim Bauer @porwest (101742) • United States 25 Jun

Did you know that a Walmart Supercenter, which are most Walmart stores anymore, keep roughly 2000 carts at each store? That's a lot of carts. So, it makes you wonder, when you go to your local Walmart, and the cart corrals are...

BarBaraPrz I don't shop at malwart but I know that if the carts go beyond a certain point, the wheels lock up.

Poor Claire is not herself

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (123334) • United States 25 Jun

That was clear as soon as they brought her out in the carrier. I thought maybe I'd see a spark of energy from her when I turned on the car but nope. She didn't meow a single time on the way back here. When I opened...

Trump posted a "bomb Iran" song spoof of a Barbara Ann by the Beach Boys today

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (123334) • United States 24 Jun

Wait what? Is this the same person who was flipping the hell out this morning because an imaginary ceasefire didn't even last for 2 hours? He's at a NATO summit in the Netherlands but is still $hitposting this garbage while...

BarBaraPrz I think there's a remake of "Alfie" the movie but don't know if it has this song in it. I think I liked the Michael Caine version... yes, I probably did: there's a certain appeal to bad boys and Michael was dishy back then.

celticeagle @celticeagle (176233) • Boise, Idaho 24 Jun

So I put my cell on the charger a couple hours ago at 35% and went to see if it was fully charged yet just now. No. It was down to 28%. What? I checked the connection and set it to charge again. Still wasn't charging. Grrrr! I...

Speaking of dropping bombs. . . Trump just dropped the F-bomb on live TV

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (123334) • United States 24 Jun

He was speaking to reporters on his way to Marine One. He is headed to Europe for a NATO summit. Yesterday he claimed that he had brokered a ceasefire between Israel and Iran despite the fact that neither country acknowledged one....

Poor little Claire

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (123334) • United States 24 Jun

My 1 year old cat Claire is at the spay/neuter clinic. She did NOT like the car ride there. She settled down once we got into the place. I think she was scared because of the different smells. I hope she does okay after surgery....

That Seems Worse...

Jim Bauer @porwest (101742) • United States 24 Jun

Several years ago, someone I went to high school with, who I was friends with on Facebook had passed away, and considering his lifestyle (he was gay), I always assumed he probably committed suicide. He'd had a string of bad...

BarBaraPrz I've heard of suicide by cop, but never by beef jerky. Will we soon see "choking hazzard" notices on the packages? I know, not a laughing matter.

I got up

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (164330) • United States 24 Jun

Isn't that an exciting way to start a post here? I got up earlier than I had planned due to the cat. The most exciting piece of news for me is that I took the time to activate my pay card for the clinical study and Yes, they paid...

The 4th of July fireworks are being held. . . on the 5th

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (123334) • United States 24 Jun

This is strange. Every year a local town hosts a huge fireworks display over the Toms River. My parents used to take us to the country club to get a view of them. My ex and I could see them from our backyard--at least during the...

When something needs doing

Fleur @Fleura (31848) • United Kingdom 23 Jun

Are you the kind of person who steps up when something needs doing? I’m trying to be one of those people. In the past I often wanted to be, and thought of doing something, but then somehow didn’t get around to it. If I saw...

BarBaraPrz That's nice of you, but don't water them right up at the base... the roots there won't absorb the water, it's the ones farther out from the canopy that slurp up the water.

An enjoyable jam with two of my co-workers.

The Horse @TheHorse (228002) • Walnut Creek, California 23 Jun

Two of my co-workers and I had no students for a 1/2-hour span the other day. So we got together in one of the lessons rooms and did a 12-bar blues jam. One of the other guys is mostly an acoustic (non-electric) player, like me,...

I have a single JBL L-100 loudspeaker for sale on Craigslist right now. But an edge on the screen frame "came up" the other day. Perhaps I did not use enough wood glue when I repaired it. So that was my project for this morning.I...

The Horse @TheHorse (228002) • Walnut Creek, California 20 Jun

They really are pretty funny, no matter what your political stance (or former poitical stance) is. I usually don't like AI, but I am LOL at some of these videos. Even Hillary (or is it Hilary?) looks like herself. I'll try to...
