It what you do with what you've got that counts.

I don't know but I've been stockpiling canned food in my basement and I bought a portable toilet just in case.

Somehow I think my baby years were probably less embarrassing than my teenage years.

"Never interrupt your enemy while they are making a mistake."

No better way to commiserate with your drowning constituents than with a family trip to Schlitterbahn.

Howls relentlessly at the moon.

Fireworks are damned expensive. We didn't buy any this year because I'm not about to spend $200 to shoot off five fountains.

I remember reading that. It was pretty funny. Jihad is easy. Running a country is not. Who would have thought.

Scheduling bill payments through my banks online bill pay. I will pay bills with a credit card when I absolutely have to. I don't use ACH autodraft at all if I can avoid it. Online bill pay is usually free, it helps centralize all my bill payments, and if there's a problem I just call the bank instead of having to mess with the vendor.

It also helps make sure I don't forget to pay a bill, which my ADHD brain would do all the time otherwise.

Those who say, “I love God,” and hate a brother or sister are liars, for those who do not love a brother or sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen.

What? No Mojo's??

I was today years old when I learned that many people don't have an inner monologue. The human body is so fascinating.

Oddly enough, if I don't take my ADHD meds, I tend to talk to myself out loud a lot because my inner monologue gets kind of "muffled" in the "noise" and I rely on it very heavily to think through.

Arkansas at #3. I am not remotely shocked. People here drive like complete morons who are oblivious to everyone else on the road. Just on your average trip to Bentonville -- which is about 8 miles from me -- you're almost guaranteed to see half a dozen cars blow through a red light. I've had more close calls than I can count.

That is absolutely glorious.

I imagine being a high school teacher sometimes feels like being Margaret Dumont in a Marx Brothers movie.

Just knowing that a black person's ass cheeks have touched the same toilet seat as theirs is enough to make racists lose their minds.

Probably the "Big Beautiful Ugly Bill", which is very unpopular, so they are trying to ram it through the house as quickly as possible.

I have a rule that "Nothing will be automated that cannot be manually overridden."

Well, actually it's my wife's rule but it's a good rule nonetheless. As a result, there's a big panel full of relays in the basement that is the "last mile" for anything climate control or security related.

There have been a few times when it's been handy. Like when the exhaust fan isn't working and I don't want to debug the ESP32 controller today so I just flip it over to "Manual".
