Name explain, defense and Frigidaire

I'm watching YouTube today, and come across name explain talking about common words.

When he got to the word defense, it was clear that a fence is to keep things out or keep things in. A fence is for defense.

But it wasn't until just now, at 11:55 p.m., listening to the radio at 100.3 when I realize that Frigidaire was a nice way of saying frigid air. I never noticed that. I always thought of it like a 50s word like Bel Air or Cavalier or Deluxe. But never realize that it was so well named.

Thanks Steve Tyrell.






Trivia third place

We lost the tiebreaker, but it was a real surprise that we were doing that well.

We had one perfect round, but it wasn't the first round, which was a surprise.

Top Mexican baby names for men. Animals with the greatest gestation period. What city hosted General cornwallis's surrender to General Washington.

We've been lobbying for a third dessert, and we're getting one.

So we celebrated with the Chocolate Stout cake complete with caramel, fudgy icing and candied bacon.

The team who has a dog that sits in a chair like a person and raises his eyebrows and follows conversations won.

House on the hill

 Bounding up onto the lawn, from the Pittsburgh style Hill, in the big blue truck, we broke on our way back into the family.

Mom shows up, friendlier to me than to any of her actual kids.

Big dog tries to kill me, baby ignores me, 2 little dog sweet as can be.

There's a hierarchy there with the puppies, and one is perceived as special so treated specially and the other one is treated poorly so ask for early. Or is it the other way around?

I guess like all siblings, we'll never know.



Is the same thing going on with the kids?



I have no siblings, but if I did, how could  it not?ot? d it not not it uld how id, id, id, id, id, id, f I f I f I did if I if but gs, gs, e no no e no no ngs e no








Home Depot

Home Depot

8 times the last 2 days? I think so.

Habitat for Humanity store twice, new, pretend Habitat for Humanity store twice, Lowe's two or three times oh, oh wait, that doesn't count going back there to return stuff twice or was it three times, I think twice. Then there is a old hardware store and then there's a really really old hardware store and one of them we went back to.



This is someone who I thought could help me?

Drug stores in the mainstream versus private

There's a particular prescription, available at Walgreens for $400. But I get it at a private Pharmacy for $10.

This is without insurance.

The price with insurance, at Walgreens, would be $14.
