Post your random thoughts, questions, ideas here... I'll start
1) Have you ever watched America's Funniest Videos and wonder why the winning video is almost NEVER funny AT ALL?? We were watching some older episodes on Disney Plus and the final 3 videos are always stupid and not funny, and the worst one ALWAYS wins.. WTF..
2) How have cereal bags NOT been made with zip lock technology??
3) They need to make a container that can keep to-go french fries from getting soggy...

well, obviously, but my point was the freezer pop has red dye in it. Not to mention it's obviously way too big a treat to give to a child that young. At the time of that photo she was most likely doped up from all the sugar.

A typical otter pop is 1 liquid ounce, with 3.5 grams of sugar in it.
A typical Hi-C juice box is 6 ounces, with 11 grams of sugar (plus additional sucralose so they can say there is less actual sugar)
A mini 7.5 ounce can of coke has 25 grams of sugar.
I'd say an otter pop is one of the least harmful sugary treats you can give a kid.

LOL...I just saw some young girl playing Tom Sawyer on drums and kicking arse...but it was the first time I really heard all the parts separate but in unison...and it just reminded me of how Tool kind of does the same thing/different genre.
I always joke that Billy Idol was the 80s Trent Reznor/NIN...heh heh.

A raccoon missing an eye would not leave my kid's outdoor playset. I shot it twice and it did not respond much, just stayed there looking at me. I pinned it with a stick and it finally got angry. When it squirmed out the back I put it out of its misery. Had to either be infected or rabid being so bolden in the middle of the afternoon. Ended up burying it so hopefully nothing gets to it. I hope the cats and chickens avoided it. Need to bleach the area now.

I was once outdoors on an extremely cold winter day for several hours. I was so cold when I got back that I went to the boiler room with a hot drink (figured I'd warm myself up both internally and externally).
You really gotta bundle up well in freezing weather. Layers, thermals, a hat, scarf, etc.

Yeah, I can't stand any temperatures under 60 degrees, I know how it is.

I had a random thought earlier. Don't recall at the moment what it was, so I hope it wasn't too hilarious or interesting. But this reminds me of a Mitch Hedburg joke.
Mitch said that if he's in bed and he thinks of a funny joke but doesn't want to get out of bed to write it down, he has to convince himself that the joke isn't funny.
Ah, Mitch. Wish he'd still be here and doing shows. His humor was great. One of the few comedians whose work I've bought.

Mitch Hedberg is my favorite comedian of all time, and I doubt that will change. He had a great way of being relatable without being predictable.

You know you are good when I watch the same joke over and over and still laugh out loud. He was brilliant.
Probably my favorite two:
"I was walking down the street at 3am, and I passed a dry cleaner. The sign in the window said -"Sorry, We're Closed". You don't have to be sorry. It's 3am. And you're a dry cleaners. Its not like I was gonna come back at 10 and say "Hey man, I was here at 3 and you guys were closed... somebody owes me an apology!"
"I bought a doughnut and they gave me a receipt for the doughtnut... I don't need a receipt for the doughnut. I give you money and you give me the doughnut, end of transaction. We don't need to bring ink and paper into this. I can't imagine a scenario that I would have to prove that I bought a doughnut. To some skeptical friend, 'Don't even act like I didn't get that doughnut, I've got the documentation right here... It's in my file at home. ...Under "D"."

The Pringles and escalator jokes always come to mind when I think of Mitch.

Pretty happy to see all grocery stores and Walmart closed all day today in my area. The death of the shopping craze on this holiday weekend is long overdue.
Turkey and taters were good. Saw both brothers at the same time since probably Christmas. Winding down with football. Pretty good day.

There is an annual ceremony in the U.S. where the president grants a pardon to a turkey.
