Advice of the day, if everyone in your home state rejoices when you are indicted on 4 counts of felony mortgage fraud, you may want to rethink your life’s decisions.

Today I learned that the bar at Lagoon Park goes through a bottle of Malort per week in the summertime. Apparently the $6 per shot price tag has something to do with it.

Sitting in mass inside a church that was featured in a Steven King mini series back in the day… and all I can think is about the images from the show.

One of my favorite things about ChatGPT is the way it’s pronounced in French, it sounds like “chat, j’ai pété,” which translates to, “cat, I have farted.” This brings so much joy!

This is strange. Did food safety best practices change? Since when is it recommended to cook chicken beyond 165? Hint: food code hasn’t changed.

My grandpa was not a cook, by any means. His approach to cooking veggies was to boil the life out of them. The one thing he taught me, hat holds true today: if you harvest corn, get it cooked as soon as possible to maintain its sweetness.

@guster.bsky.social @brianrosenworcel.bsky.social Thanks for hosting On the Ocean in Maine. Our family has been able to explore things we would have never otherwise experienced in the desert of Utah!

Ahhhh this is what we in the business call “The Devil’s Interest rate.” Granted, I call any rate above 5% the devils interest rate.

Seems appropriate to cheer for France today… after all, without their support during the revolutionary war, we’d all still be speaking English. Vive la France!

So funny thing. I purchased an item from Amazon that weighed ~50 lbs, and was bulky. It then went on sale… by a LOT! Instead of just crediting the difference, Amazon paid to ship a replacement item and return the original… Amazon is paying shipping both ways instead of just issuing a credit.

Hard to believe this girl is now a senior in High School. Fun fact, in her Sunday school class they did a project called “Path to Piety.” Her path took her from home, to church, to Rio Tinto Stadium.

Just got an email from a "Crew Jones" and I can't help but wonder if his parents were fans of the movie "Rad?" (Yes, I know it's actually "Cru"). 😘

Today I learned that Dee Snider used “O Come All Ye Faithful” as a melodic pattern for “We’re Not Gonna Take It” and now I can’t stop hearing the similarities.

This is a new one from @aircanada.bsky.social... for an upcoming flight "Seat selection for this flight is not available through Air Canada. Please complete your seat selection with Air Canada." So Air Canada can't help me... but Air Canada can.

Remembering fondly the time I told the wait staff to 86 the pork chops, which obviously meant to go out and kill every pork chop in the restaurant.

This is 100% accurate. Why do we call the main course an entrée?

Today I learned - after the Housemartins broke up, their bassist, Norman Cook, released a solo album under the stage name “Fatboy Slim.” Seriously, was not expecting a Housemartins/Fatboy Slim connection today.

At the Salt Lake airport there is a kiosk offering help finding a lost phone. To access the help you need to scan a QR code… which requires a phone. Which you’ve lost.
