Today is April 12th and today is Big Wind Day. Before your mind starts taking this to a different level, allow me to clarify.
On April 12, 1934, the staff at Mount Washington Observatory, in New Hampshire, recorded the highest surface wind ever measured anywhere on earth. The big wind was officially recorded at 231 mph or 372 kph.
The lawsuits keep piling up for GM ( General Motors ) because of a faulty ignition switch.......heavy keychains could make a car stop thereby disabling the safety system. How many people place every key they own on one keyring?
The only key on mine is house key. My Dad was a mechanic and taught us early not to overload key ring. I have a separate ring that must weight five pounds (maybe less lol).
Never anything else on the ignition key! For exactly this reason and the more obvious one...all those extra keys make lots of noise banging against the steering column and mark it up.
Never anything on the ignition key. My keys are always kept separate. And I never leave anything valuable in my car. I make sure I use my address free registration just in case someone breaks in and takes the garage opener.
Hi. My name is Linda and I like licorice. I went to Walgreen to purchase a birthday card for a friend at work and ended up buying 3 large boxes of Good and Plenty Licorice Candy ( because they were $1.49 each or 3 for $3.00. Hey, it made sense to me! ). I need help.
Whats in a name .A little thing I came across.
Bella
She's the most beautiful girl you will ever see. Every feature that she possesses is engraved in your mind from the second you lay eyes on her. Bella is not limited to just physical features, her personality is equally as beautiful.
You wonder how it is that a person this extraordinary can exist, but find yourself just appreciating the fact that she exists, and even better yet, that you know her.
From head to toe, this girl was simply Bella
The meaning of the name Bella is Beautiful, God Is My Oath
The origin of the name Bella is Italian
Notes: Short form of Isabella, a form of Elizabeth.
Bella My God is a vow Origin: Hebrew Pronunciation: BEL luh Related Names: Isabella, Isabel, Bela
Additional information about the name Bella:
A shortened form of Isabella, the Italian version of Isabel. It is also linked to the Italian word for 'handsome, beautiful' - 'bello'.
I picked the name bella! ( the adjective ) because my Italian gal pal at work, always uses the term beautiful! You would never find her using any other superlatives, no great, no WOW, no fantastic, always BEAUTIFUL! That's why I picked bella! versus Bella ( the noun ). Bella seemed to become popular with the Twilight movies but I assure you, it is because of my friend, Patty.
The news reported on the radio station I listen to, WKQI, 95.5, reported of a man who awoke to the smell of smoke, his house was fire. The homeowner risked his life to reenter his house to save his X-Box! Aside from your spouse, significant other, kidz, family pet(s), is there anything that you would risk your life for, to save?
My box set of EVERYTHING Buddy Holly recorded, in fact all my cds and dvds, books etc and my electronic keyboard which I love playing either as a piano or by pressing a few buttons putting in different sounds and rhythms, it gives me endless hours of relaxation and I couldn't live without it
I pretty much have my phone with me at all times so if there was a fire, I do believe that my phone would already be in my possession. I might consider returning for my purse if I thought I could get in and get out without causing harm to myself or anyone that would be required to rescue me. I say my purse because I has my wallet stolen in August and it is such a pain in the butt to have to replace everything.
I **** mobile phones and don't and won't have one, they're my "bete noire". Really pisses me off having to listen to those "I'm on the bus" merchants regaling me with all the inane details of their dreary ghastly lives, usually with their voices raised several decibels above normal in the mistaken belief everybody on board is interested in them.

I love Target! It's so easy to stop and pick up music, health and beauty items, bedding, clothing, small kitchen appliances AND evidently, they offer a full line of groceries, too!!!! The only issue I have with shopping there is the working class yay-hoo's that have no regard for the direction of the arrows and go the wrong way up or down an aisle just to secure a better parking spot! Peace on Earth, goodwill towards the dumb asses!
To Steffi, I AM A WORKING CLASS, single female. I drive my 2004 Saturn, Vue to work everyday and I plan to, until it dies because I cannot justify buying a new car because I drive approximately 500 miles per week. It's important that I watch my dollars and cents and that's why I DO shop at Target.
I apologize that you found my reference to a working class yay-hoo offensive. Perhaps you would have been more receptive if I would have just generalized and called them something else. The fact remains, was not happy as I sat in my old car, waiting to safely back out as 3 cars went against the arrow, jockeying for a better parking spot.
I think you missed my point. I didn't see reason for qualifying them in any way. Yahoos would have been sufficient. They may have been rich for all one knows; a lot of well to do people shop there, too.
Throwing working class under the bus wasn't necessary.
A lot of middle class people at my place of employment are working class lazy assholes that think the world owes them free paychecks because they know someone that knows someone that's friends with someone important. My boss makes 75k He is suppose to work 8 hours a day, and work with his subordinates. However, he works 12 to 20 minutes a day and delegates the rest of his workload out so he can **** the rest of the day because he hits the casinos at night. About half the guys do the same thing.
I like the fact that the maximum speed in a parking lot is 5 mph, stop signs all over. Its pouring rain and you are within the crosswalk and car after car rolls through the stop sign. They are dry, so why can't they stop and yield the right of way to the pedestrian? Why can't they make a complete stop?
Just last week I was loading groceries into my truck. The lady parked next to me finished as I started, and pushed the cart around to her passenger side, next to my drivers side, and just left it. I pushed the cart to the rack which was a total of 12 paces round trip farther.
Every class has worthless, good for nothing, snotty, and shity people. If it applies, it applies, if not disregard. I am working, middle class. I take no offense because it doesn't apply to me. There are many, many snotty working (middle) class assholes that think that they are gods. They do what they want and have no reguards for anything but NUMBER ONE. They are jealous that people have better stuff and more money than they do, and just shit on everyone that has crappier stuff than them. They say "FTW," and do what ever they want.
There wasn't a need for the caps. I asked a simple question and made a valid point, and I tried to bring lightness to it. Putting in caps is known as yelling.
And not that it matters, but since you raised the point: you've mentioned what you do and what you plan to do (or maybe are doing now). Sounds like middle class, and then, of course, upper class. Not that it matters. My point simply was: there was no need to classify said yahoos. And after you said what you did, I simply said I think you missed my point, etc. And see what I said just above this. I tried to bring people together on this.
I would be more than happy to guide any woman into a parking space. Though I have met my fair share of non-driving fucks "NDF's," which of most are men. If you look at insurance rates you will find that it's not the women that need the help, it's the insecure, testosterone driven male eager to prove his masculinity behind the wheel. If you go to the store and see a vehical taking up multiple paking spaces, there is a 99% chance a guy parked the vehical. So, odds are virtually non-existent that Bella would need any help parking. She logs 500 miles a week, thats 26,000 miles a year. I would think that she has more experience than most since the national mileage average per licensed driver is only 15,000 miles.
At 94, Harriette Thompson becomes the oldest woman to run a half-marathon. She really did it, cranking out the 13.1 miles at a pace of just over 17 minutes per mile and finishing in an unofficial time of 3 hours, 42 minutes and 56 seconds.
Money can't buy you happiness,
But money can buy ice cream!
... as the song goes "Happiness, a penis the greatest gift that I possess."

Maybe we need to create a support group for those addicted to Good and Plenty!

There are numb nuts in every class.
Sincerely, a lifelong working class member

Very good point Steffi, very good!

But...oh, please...step aside and guide Princess Bella into her Royal Majesty's Parking Spot.
