When you put out a commercial in which you state that going to a specific dentist is a painless and FUN FILLED experience, I don’t believe you. Painless, perhaps. Fun filled… give me a break.
A conversation with a bank
Conversation with Wells Fargo
Me: I transferred money to my son and he hasn’t received it yet
Them: Since you transferred it after 8pm Pacific time it won’t credit until today’s postings
Me: I’ve transferred money before, at all hours of the day, and he’s gotten it instantaneously
Them: Well, that shouldn’t have happened
Me: How can we make it happen?
Them: I’ll have to put you on hold
Bad Music
Them: I’m going to transfer you to our transfer department. (Yes, they really said that). They should be able to recall the transaction, then you can send it again
That feeling of wet
Got into bed a few nights ago and realized I’d forgotten to brush my teeth. Got up and went to the bathroom sink without putting my slippers on. Stepped on the little rug in front of the sink and it was soaking wet. Turns out that when BuddhaBubba gets up in the evening as we watch TV and goes into my bathroom, it’s not to get a drink of water… it’s to empty the last drink out on my rug.
It’s a good thing I love that dog so much.
We’re paying the hockey coach how much?!!!
In China, when they want to create a class of athletes to challenge the world, they put them in a school specifically dedicated to athletics. They don’t pretend the school is a university dedicated to the transmission of scientific or literary knowledge. Their universities are not training grounds for semi pro and professional sports teams. Their universities are focused on learning. If you ever wonder why the Chinese are rapidly overtaking us as the world’s leading economic engine, you might ponder that.
I realize that any questioning of the decision by the University of Alaska Anchorage to pay a hockey
No, no, no!
The weather was just getting back to my comfort zone and bam! today is another scorcher. Does no one in the universe understand that this is Anchorage and we are NOT supposed to be this warm. C’mon goddess, get it straight. Alaska cold. Florida hot. How hard is that?
I find it amusing
I find it amusing that the NSA whistle blower has now fled from China to Russia. Yep, nothing like fleeing from one country known for its free press to a country even better known for its open atmosphere and vigorous press freedoms.
This can only lead to financial ruin
The first things I downloaded to my first ever iPad were Nook, Kindle and iReader. I foresee financial ruin in my future as I recreate on my iPad the library in my home that is now going to be so very, very portable. I no longer will have to choose which Dickens book to take on a trip with me. I can take them all!
I can almost guarantee this will get obnoxious

My amazingly wonderful godchild Emily, with technical assistance from an equally wonderful young man named Broneil, helped me buy an iPad. And lo and behold what did I find but that it takes pictures. Not only does it take pictures, but its screen is actually big enough for me to see what I’m taking a picture of. I have learned the hard way to not touch the little camera icon that apparently turns the camera’s eye towards the taker. At my age, that’s just scary. No one should see themselves that up close and personal after hitting sixty unless they
Seems contradictory
The Supreme Court has decided that corporations cannot patent human genes. Yet the same Supreme Court has stated that corporations are human. So why can’t they patent their own genes?
Can I be the only one?
Can I really be the only person who worries that Cal Worthington is going to accidentally spit his dentures out in the middle of one of his commercial pitches?
