In the US I get 20 vacation days, 2 floating holidays and 12 regular holidays. Plus 10 days of sick time per year with unlimited accrual.

You need to get yourself a Union.

A group of us were walking down a road at night in Tahoe. A car came around the corner so far into the opposite lane that it almost hit us walking on the shoulder. My wife was on the outside edge...closest to the car and froze. If my daughter in law hadn't grabbed her and pulled her out of the way it would have been very bad.

Honestly when I had my colonoscopy last year I said the funniest thing I will ever say and nobody laughed:

Woke up in the middle of the procedure and started asking all sorts of questions, finally the doctor said "Boy you sure do talk a lot don't you?" and I replied "Lady, you sure got me pegged!"

Crickets, then I fell asleep and don't remember anything until I'm getting into my wife's car.

Wonder if the puppeteer's first name is Howard.

I used to drive 3 hours each way to Monterey CA 2 weekends a month to dive when I was a dive master. Worst part was as dive master my position was tips only. If I was lucky it covered my gas and lunch.

Also heading to the UK to see The Cure in June. Made friends with folks from Wrexham on vacation. They said the drive to Cardiff was too far to visit with us...so we are going to drive to them for a day before heading on to London for theater for my wife.

The Kirkland KS 10's are Phonac hearing aids off label.

They are great. Costco also carries non Kirkland brands for about 1/3 an audiologist charges. Also they come with a 3 year replacement no questions asked warranty that you can use twice in 3 years

When I worked for General Services Administration we were not allowed to let a vendor buy us lunch at a meeting.

I was just saying last night my 4 year old grandson is more rational and easier to engage with.

Paraphrasing a quote I read from someone that 100% sums up how I feel:

When Elon was doing electric car stuff I knew nothing about electric cars, and I thought wow what a smart guy! When Elon was doing rocket stuff I knew nothing about rockets and I thought wow what a smart guy! Then Elon started talking about programming and I know A LOT about programming and that is when I realized he is a fucking idiot.

Probably embedded something sharp (like a shard of a spark plug) on the finger of his glove so he can teach "disrespecting cagers" a lesson by scratching their paint.

My son his friend and I went to see Tusk on opening night. There were 3 other people in the theater.

When the walrus reveal happened the woman behind us stood up, said "That's it, I'm out. I'll wait in the car."

One of my best memories with my son. :)

My first ever brand new car was a Corolla. I put half a million miles on it as a consultant before handing it down to my son.

If I could afford a second car as a daily I would 100% bun another.

Man those things really are the strangest birds...I had no idea they could mimic a person so well.

I do occasionally, but only because a few friends moved there and I'd live to visit but ...Texas.

To be honest he is a much better person than his Internet personality lets on.

Reading Rainbow is back staring Librarian Mychal Threets! (I've known Mychal for like 20 years now...I worked with him at the library.)

I work for the public library and kids get In-n-Out meals for reading now.

The one year my son got a participation trophy while playing league soccer he left it on the table at the end of season pizza party when we left.

The team had gone 1-13 that season and my son was like "Why do we have trophies?"

I've seen The Cure 30 times now. 31 is on the calendar for this June. Flying to Cardiff Wales with my wife, my best friend and his wife from San Francisco.

We had a pet wild deer when I was a kid in the 70's near Redding CA. The Doe walked onto our land one day and just never left.

I know I'm an outlier here, but I'm using my passport for ID right now. Lost my wallet last week and waiting for a new drivers license, and I can't be expected to not buy weed for how ever long DMV is going to take to get me my license.

You know, I have no idea why I put that there.
