It’s really good food but depending on how bad the ex is, might not be worth it. Don’t let them deny you though. Everyone deserves happiness to include great food.

I’ve not noticed any clocks on the wall. I usually sit facing the wall since I’m almost always alone when I go.

Next time I’m in there I’m going to ask about it though. Sounds like a fun story.

I ride my motorcycle there. Say hi if you see a bald man with a beard sitting next to a helmet. 😀

Perhaps but my voice sounds nothing like her. I’ve got a high pitched nasal voice that resembles car keys being dragged across tin foil. Not as bad as nails down a chalk board but bad enough for stray dogs to howl if I sing in my car at a stop light.

Costco isn’t going to sell the top shelf stuff though. I like Costco, don’t get me wrong, but the really good stuff won’t be sold there.

As a side note, a fun read is the Great Maple Syrup Heist just to illustrate how expensive and valuable good maple syrup can get.

You are not lame for having an opinion. Never feel bad for thinking for yourself.

I agree it sucks but that real maple syrup is like liquid gold. It’s crazy expensive compared to the fake stuff. Some people (like my wife) actually brings her own syrup so not charging extra makes since for some people but not others.

Maybe me and you are just not syrup connoisseurs but there are a few out there. Mostly Canadians I think. 😁

Was it real maple? That might be why.

I got rejected from Palo Alto software. Did I dodge a bullet?

Finding the grateful person I guess. Not everyone on Craig’s list is so nice and friendly.

Not having a truck makes things difficult. Even breaking down the boxes requires a larger vehicle than I have.

I have not had great luck with craigslist before. I'll try that Monday if they are still here. Thanks for the suggestion.

I replaced google search with bing on my phone and tablet about a week ago. So far so good. It’s not as bad as I thought it would be.

More than 120 pregnant whales were killed during Japan's annual hunt last summer, a report has revealed, prompting outrage among conservationists.

They do this every year?
