Ever since I was a kid and I would go to the bank with my parents, I noticed how fast the bank tellers move. They count the money fast, they move quickly but accurately. So, when my sister told me to go to the bank to check on...

Gift or insult?

Fiacre Banks @xFiacre (15050) • Ireland 27 Jul

celticeagle I think earlier in my life I was overly sensitive. Now I over think things. I would probably inquire about it with a comical question. Comedy can soften otherwise hairy situations. I hope your wife enjoys her soaps.

Another Cloudy Day

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (138051) • Marion, Ohio 27 Jul

That keeps it cooler out. But I have everything finished until my hardware cloth gets here. So maybe the house will get some attention. As you can see nothing exciting here. Watching a show called expedition X. It's been fairly...

We "blew off" last Monday, as we had played a gig the day before. Today (Monday) it's back to business as usual. Jack, the band's Fearless Leader, is not one to give us breaks (or pretzels, though he does provide beer), so I...

Commonwealth Games in Glasgow

Winterishere @thedevilinme (5326) • Northampton, England 21h

celticeagle It's not silly at all. It's smart I think. I remember my ex used to throw all his pennies on the ground. I'd pick them up and saved a lot that way.

celticeagle That's a smart idea. This cob looks like it didn't get enough water and/or nutrients. I always pull back the husk to see what the corn and cob look like.

celticeagle It is so interesting to me the different times in a person's life when their lives could take a different direction and as interesting the direction it actually takes. Destiny. Sounds like Scott was a good friend. It's sad that you lost him.
