The other day, I had my yearly eye exam. And in the course of the exam, they check my blood pressure. That stands to reason as high blood pressure can cause some eye problems. But then they asked me for my weighed and my height.
Now this struck me as being very odd. Do tall people need different glasses than short people?
The other day in the grocery store, I noticed a woman squatted down on one side of the isle while reading the cereal box on the other side of the isle. What ever works I guess.
I had never thought much about the refillable popcorn buckets that some movie theaters offer. After all, one bucket of popcorn would be more than enough for me during a movie. But the other day, I was eating lunch in a strip mall next to a movie theater. And I kept seeing people going past with their popcorn buckets only to return a few minutes later with it full of popcorn. Then it dawned on me. These people worked in the strip mall and were going to the movie theater for free popcorn. YES!
What do you do with an old convent after the nuns have all passed on? Why you turn it into a retirement home. And while the apartments may be small, the chapel is fantastic.
These are two new yogurt selections. One is M&Ms and the other chocolate chip. Similar to fruit-on-the-bottom, these are goodies-on-the-top. These will be great for the diet conscience. You can pretend to eat healthy by eating the topping first and then ditching the yogurt. Can a hot fudge yogurt be coming next?
This is the Mexican section of the cooler case at my local grocery store. I guess Mexicans must really like Jello.
These are heirloom tomatoes. I guess heirloom is another name for ugly. If my wife didn’t like the purple cauliflower, I am pretty sure she won’t like these. There is also a regular tomato for comparison.
Doctors now claim that looking down at your cell phone all day long is injuring your neck. I wonder if that also applies to looking down at books and paper work all day long?
When my cable TV quit working, I had to call into the cable company to get it fixed. And what do I get to listen to while on hold? Why, advertisements for programs that I could be watching if only my cable TV was working.
Invariably when I check into a motel/hotel room, the message waiting light on the telephone is flashing indicating that I have a voicemail message. But as usual, it is the hotel/motel welcoming me as their guest. And while this it a nice gesture on the part of the establishment, it is a real pain for me since I have to learn how to use the voicemail system in order to retrieve their welcome message. Of course, I could just ignore the light but what if it is a message of some import? In the end, I cave in and retrieve their message.
