Organic Hot Dogs are questionable

Are they meat or soy protein, like veggie dogs?

I have no idea what it is... it doesn't have its preservatives... plus it has that vegan-texture shit that I don't like...

It's meat... yet doesn't have the texture I enjoy.

The soy/ground beef texture in this particular generic of Hamburgers at Aldi's on the otherhand is actually really tasty... best of all not "ORGANIC"!

Lots of people tailgating me on the motorway today. Was it something in the air or what?

Got a half dollar in my change, first one in more than 10 years.  Same place gave me two two dollar bills over the summer

Part of the house I'm working on still stinks like spray foam which generally means someone fucked up

I think I just found out why Nelson County bourbon & cola is significantly cheaper than Jim Beam. Can barely taste the bourbon :zombiefuck:

Guy came earlier and loaded up all 13 trimmers I tossed in a lot and posted to Marketplace.

My carport is almost ready for winter.  :asthing:

No matter how much you've eaten you still have room for a small bowl of Bombay Mix.
Ever got that feeling that you're trying to teach a dog a card trick?

Had reason to fill in an IRS form today. From a tech POV, they use a PDF with inline forms and digital signing, which is nice. Even a Swedish citizen can do it. I don't think our authorities are that permissive (but I haven't tried so I don't know).

The trains are running again on the Waterbury line after a few months of track work

The cub just learned the meaning of money.... he has a handful of pennies his trains have been carrying around as freight and he told me he wanted to use "a money" to buy a toy. So, okay, one lesson at a time? I let him carefully carry the penny to the store where I had to get some things anyway, and let him pick out a toy. Then he very carefully gave the penny to the cashier (and she winked at me and palmed it back into the bag) and got his toy.

Theennnn he discovered that when you buy a thing, you don't get your coin back.  :bigcry:

After much deliberation he decided to keep his toy and let the cashier keep the money.  :LOL:

Wait until your cub starts paying by card. He'll get that back. ;)

A Google streetview car was prowling around town today

I hate the new automatic Google spell and grammar checker. It pops up in forms and annoys the hell out of me. Maybe it's finally time to ditch Chrome for good.
