Reasons to have an emotional support bear:

- no one will bother you on the bus
- their claws make great can openers
- they love to sleep and are very good at it
- they can track burritos from many miles away
- big bear cuddles

Where my mind goes on these robot tests...
Shalom friends!
Chag pesach sameach! May you have a safe and joyous Passover 💚

Today is Christopher Walken's 83rd birthday. You don't necessarily need a reason to watch the video for Fat Boy Slim's "Weapon of Choice," but if you did need a reason, this one will do.

After watching the video ask yourself, "Is my day a little better now?"

If the answer is no, something is horribly wrong. Seek help.

It's that time of year when my body needs to become accustomed to going outside and NOT being hit with a blast of cold air.

Happy Spring.

Project Hail Mary: it's not often I like the screen adaptation better than the book. This would be one of those exceptions. Definitely recommend seeing it in the theater.

We're not letting the 13yo watch Game of Thrones (yet) so his workaround is to read the books. Curious to see how he tackles 807 pages of high fantasy. 🤣

The little league baseball season hasn't started - first practice is Tuesday - and there's already drama. Thankfully, we're not involved.

One for the history books...

What are we even doing here? This isn't a sandwich. If you're hipster, it's a long way from a "handheld." It's an abomination. A mess.

A good sandwich shouldn't be a chore to eat. We shouldn't need to be hosed down when we're done, or need so many napkins the Ents go on the march. Nobody wants to feel like Dagwood Bumstead.

Don't insult the customer's intelligence. Lay the bun flat, serve it open faced, and list it on the menu accordingly.
