He's in the Trunk

Jim Bauer @porwest (97844) • United States 11h

Sometimes you are just reminded, for whatever reason, of a story you were told once that just really struck your funny bone. Take my Aunt Chris after my Uncle Bruce died suddenly of a heart attack walking out to his front porch...

Lena Kovadlo This is definitely a memorable story. Made me laugh.

Has Anyone Ever Surprised you with Stupidity?

OceanTiara @RebeccasFarm (93068) • United States 24 Mar

I get that a lot. I am not immune from stupid myself, but at times, I just can't understand the lack of foresight or insight. Especially since I had been going over the same thing over and over...

Lena Kovadlo A moment of stupidity can fall upon us all. But if it happens constantly that ain’t good.

Do You Really Fire Someone Like This???

Jim Bauer @porwest (97844) • United States 24 Mar

I have been around firing people for a very long time, although these days of course, I am retired. So, I've seen people being fired many times, and have been involved in the decision-making process and the act of firing people as...

Lena Kovadlo It sounds unprofessional to me to say that. Does the boss have to say he/she is sorry when firing someone? I don’t know. They probably aren’t sorry lol. I wouldn’t like to hear You’re fired. Unfortunately, we must let you go sounds much...

Sorry I was MIA again yesterday. The internet was running so slow it was 10-15 minutes between screens. I finally gave up. Had a rough night thinking about my husband's indiscretions. I so wish I could talk to him. In spite...

You Better Not Rain on my Brats

Jim Bauer @porwest (97844) • United States 23 Mar

Do you have a theory about why Donald Trump lies even when he does NOT have to lie to look OK?

The Horse @TheHorse (224741) • Walnut Creek, California 20 Mar

Why does "president" Donald Trump lie even when he does not have to? He has pretended to be almost a "scratch" golfer, even though he is really a 10 or 15 handicap golfer. Being a 10 handicap golfer is pretty good. Over 18 holes,...

My Truck is Gone

Jim Bauer @porwest (97844) • United States 21 Mar

We have to go to a birthday party about 45 minutes away and I was running a bit low on gas, so when I was out and about yesterday, I decided to get some gas. But what the hell happened between Wednesday and Thursday? Gas was...

Do You Slack off at the Gym?

OceanTiara @RebeccasFarm (93068) • United States 19 Mar

I don't go to the gym anymore but if I did, this is probably what I'd be doing. Slacking. I much prefer the steam room, not the sauna. Do you even go to the gym and do anything? I have my own fitness program. It's all in my...

Well nothing is planning out. Apartments really are out of the question ..many health factors to consider, but in the end, might have to accept one, like it or not. I have not been able to view some that I had planned as in the...

TIPS

Jim Bauer @porwest (97844) • United States 12 Mar

I am not sure if it is actually true, or if someone just made it up, but the concept behind it, true or not, still makes perfect sense when it comes to offering someone a tip. Supposedly the word "tip" or "tips" is an acronym...

Lena Kovadlo I hate when restaurants automatically add 18% to the bill. And then after they swipe your card the receipt you have to sign has a tip line for you to fill in. Don’t expect a tip if you already took 18% from me. Also, the tip is meant for the waiter as I...

The Horse @TheHorse (224741) • Walnut Creek, California 12 Mar

The Fox Often Has Something to Hide

Jim Bauer @porwest (97844) • United States 8 Mar

If you want to know how the hens are doing, sure, you CAN ask the fox. But even when he tells you the hens are fine, it's best to have a peek inside the coop yourself just to be sure what he's telling you is true. Because the fox...

Lena Kovadlo Don’t remember the last time I went to Burger King. Saturday night we went to a restaurant close to my mom’s house. Food was pretty good. The NY strip wasn’t as tender though.
