There are other similar websites that can walk you through registering to vote, but I like this one because they make it easy to find out what elections are coming up. Just put in your street address. No sign up required.

Some people just don't have a Clue

I never thought about alternate materials for quilt batting. How interesting! I've been saving scrap fabric for a crochet rag rug and baskets.

Have you tried this technique for joining shorter strips? I imagine it would be tedious to use this method to join long strands of yarn (pulling and pulling the other end through the loop to cinch the "knot"). But maybe would work ok with plarn?

Omg, the joke just landed. I was wondering what the eff a teat owl was until I finally said it out loud.

Maybe this should go in no stupid questions, but I'm curious to hear the explanation too. Am I just outdated? I thought every good home first aid kit should have a bottle.

I would do this to incentivize shoppers to take as many as possible. Like at a charity shop that needs to make room for a sizable donation or just to churn the shelves a little.

The sign is still pretty amusing tho.

This sounds like a fun thought experiment. What are the cyberastrological signs?

"Oh, she's such a typical Myspace"

"I can't adult properly when AOL is in retrograde."

"I'm a Lemmy with Linux in the fourth house"

I've heard that the authors using 2 initials + family name are usually women. As women used to struggle to get published if their name was obviously female.

That fits with his ideologies far better than the thin blue line skull nonsense.

I don't require assistance to change a tire. I like to play with power tools. I do the fixit jobs around the house and know how all the systems function. I can hook up my camper to the truck by myself and I prefer to get a back in spot at the campground.

 

I'm keeping an eye out for it. We first saw it on our way out to dinner. And I didn't see it when we came back about an hour later. Hopefully mama found it and got it home. It was barely bigger than a softball. I already know of a rehabber collective that I will call if I do see it again.

 

Found it in my pool while I was getting it ready for summer. Rehomed it to the neighbor's pond where it will have lots of turtle friends.

 

Found him in the skimmer this morning. My hand must feel more cozy than the basket as he chose to take a nap once I picked him up. I carried him across the street to the wildlife refuge marshy area. Be free, little 🐢

 

BG was sponsoring the Atlanta Olympics that year, and some marketing person thought it would be a fun idea to put our home state on name badges as kind of a US ambassador-like gesture I guess for all the extra visitors the parks expected.

I don't know if we saw an increase in visitors that year. Williamsburg is like a 12 hour drive from Atlanta. But I did have one guy complain to me about the Italian food we sold in the cafeteria, that it was horrid, and his wife was Italian, and she couldn't eat this. Almost 30 years later and I still remember that guy. Why was he remotely expecting decent food at a theme park? I have no idea. And I still have Funiculì, Funiculà running through my head on occasion. Thanks BG.

 

This came up in the rotation on the tv and it amused me. I tried asking it for a pattern but it was unresponsive 😂

The most demanded Christmas-exclusive recipe that my late mother in law kept from everyone (but meeee!)

In memory of an amazing mother in law. Love her to pieces.

Chef's notes: grease a dish with butter before pouring the fudge. And !!DO NOT!! put it in the refrigerator to cool. Leave it on the counter to cool. Fridge = brick of sad chocolate. Also also, MIL's preferred brand of peanut butter is JIF. I couldn't care less what brand I use, but this mattered to her. ❤️

Edit: Canned milk = evaporated milk.

"Mars" creme = marshmallow creme aka Fluff.

 

Husband sent me this pic that he found on the site formerly known as Twitter. I'm impressed that they either found sock yarn/#10 thread in dayglo yellow, or that they used basic cotton thread and found dayglo yellow fabric dye.
