    What Pleases You?

    Working with records this morning from someone with the last name "McHorney". That must have been a challenging name to live with through high school and the military. Sounds like it could have been paired up with "McLovin" in Superbad. :laugh:

    So...nothing really new. Everyone knew he was guilty and we still don't know what happened to the body. But glad this provides some closure for the family. EDIT, NBCNews.com had more details: Though I'm not sure I buy that, either. I've spent a fair amount of time in Aruba on the beaches and...

    They're not called Mass-holes without cause. :D If I ever get cut-off by someone on the Vermont interstates, it's usually someone with license plate from MA.

    What Pleases You?

    That I just found out a new Barnes & Noble bookstore has opened in one of my frequent shopping destinations: West Lebanon, NH. I'd somehow missed the "coming soon" news article, and was actually in this shopping plaza last weekend and didn't even notice there was a new store being readied for...

    Yes, that becomes the issue when employees who are not owners resist the robbers. I believe someone around here was fired when they didn't simply comply with the request of a robber. I don't think they attacked the robber, but simply didn't hand over any money and the robber eventually left. But...

    Sorry to hear it (though this is the "What Pleases You" thread so maybe you enjoy this?). I hate humidity. Blessedly cooler and lower humidity here in New England finally after the sultry tropical humidity and temps of July, along with the torrential rains and flooding. I'm actually a bit chilly...

    Still over 400 locations, apparently. The only one around here closed years ago.

    That I just submitted my tax return on Saturday and my refund is already pending deposit in my bank account. Four days.

    That someone in my neighborhood has the "leg lamp" from "A Christmas Story" proudly displayed in their front picture window. :laugh:

    I just got some boneless chicken from Dominos last week with that mango habanero dipping sauce. Very good. Cooks Country (sister show to PBS's America's Test Kitchen) did a taste test of hot sauce on an episode I saw a while back. As I recall, the Cholula brand did not rank highly (I was a...

    What Pleases You?

    Yes, but it probably varies from state to state. Vermont has banned plastic shopping bags, so stores have to provide paper bags for a small fee. Rather than do that, some stores have elected to not offer any bags at all. That's what Walmart has done for their Vermont stores. So yes, in Vermont...

    What Pleases You?

    Some stores around here don't provide any bags at all (Walmart), or if you're self-checking you have to ask an associate for them and they add the charge themselves.

    What Pleases You?

    Love self-checkouts. I can scan my items usually much faster than the slow-motion used by most cashiers, and don't have to listen to them socializing with their co-workers while they're working (which contributes to the slowness). Though I've never used the self-check at Costco. The lines at my...

    So that was Coach, not Woody (unless they later recycled the bit). :lol:

    An exchange I still remember to this day: Woody: Hey, what's shakin' Mr. Peterson? Norm: All four cheeks and a couple of chins.

    What Pleases You?

    I recently rediscovered some comedy bits I'd recorded off the radio close to 30 years ago, and I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. I presume these were some syndicated bits played on the local radio station as I don't think they were locally produced, but I haven't been able to track them...

    The name of Alabama's state treasurer: Young Boozer :lol: Apparently it's been passed down for a few generations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_Boozer

    What Pleases You?

    Yeah, that's an option but creates another dirty dish to wash and, if everything's not sealed tightly, possible leakage. I did think about just sealing whole eggs in a small sized container, perhaps with some paper towel cushioning. But for now just bringing in a whole dozen seems to work. If...

    What Pleases You?

    Just picked up a few of these. I hadn't bothered in the past as the "egg transport" issue was also a concern. I just decided to take a whole dozen and put them in the fridge at the office. Easier to transport a whole carton than individual eggs, IMO. They're pretty good, and I like how all the...

    ????? I wonder whose job it is to take the measurements? :lol: (The pic above is selectively clipped by me, but still an odd choice of wording, IMO, regardless of context.) ;)

    Possibly, though I chalk it up more to concentrating on work and not really paying attention to the details of the thermos. One just assumes that by 12:30-ish, the coffee is probably gone. :)

    When you think you drank all the coffee in your thermos, then discover that there's still another cup. ☕😋
