My, whatever happened to September? Oh well, that just brings us closer to Real Fall here in central Texas.
Pray tell - what is the purpose of the road-side sign that says "Guard rail damage ahead"? Is the intent to let you know that this is not a good place to have an accident; you should choose another spot? Maybe it means just the opposite; aim here - this spot is already damaged, so it's okay to hit it. IMWTK
Became concerned about the TV the other night. In the middle of a broadcast, the sound suddenly went silent. We waited patiently, but to no avail; all was silent. Was the problem with the program, or was it the fault of the TV? I finally decided to check another channel to see, only to find the remote jammed under the computer lap desk, mute button firmly pressed.
And in other disruptions of domestic tranquility, I finally was able to fish a foreign object out of the the kitchen disposal, the cause of a horrible, metal-to-metal grinding noise. The culprit was a badly damaged metal screw, just over a quarter-inch in length. The question is, how did a screw get in there in the first place? It was a wood screw, not a machine screw, so it likely was not from the disposal itself. Maybe we should start x-raying our vegetables.
Sometimes I think that we don't live where I think we live. According to the map below, our house is situated between the two pins located in the center of the map. So, based on the traditional colors used on a weather map, it should have been raining at our house. Raining hard, in fact. But at the moment that picture was snagged, there was no rain falling. Curious.
The good news is that map or no map, it did rain at our house this weekend - more than 6 inches, according to the weather channel. And that's the good news from Lake Wobegone.
