Breakfast....


Did you read Dear Abby yesterday?  A letter from a guy complaining that his wife used to make him lattes all the time, now after 17 years, she refuses.  And, oh, by the way, when I say 'latte', I don't mean 'latte'.

Made me laugh when I say your breakfast.

My diesel car self-identifies as an electric vehicle.

It's was unbelievable. Jordan Spieth played the best 4 consecutive holes in the history of the open.

2 years in a row where the finish was incredible.

Yeah. Last year's battle between Mickelson and Stenson was amazing to watch.

I felt bad for Kuchar. He had the lead, played well and just couldn't match Spieth. To be fair, there's no other golfer playing that could.

Final Jeopardy category:  Europe
Question:  this former feudal state has the highest capital city in Europe at 3300ft elevation.

I can't believe I guessed correctly.  My wife doesn't like me.

Andorra.

Why that came to mind, I have no idea.  None of the three contestants guessed it.

Accidentally labelled a drawing "Approved by Congress" instead of "Approved for Construction".  :P

Apparently my mind had wandered a bit. Contractor hadn't seen a drawing with congressional approval before.  ;D

My brother once got a drawing back on one DND project, the parts to be removed were circled with those squiggly red semicircles, it was in a very odd shape.  Someone had put an arrow toward it with the note 'Is squashed dead squirrel to be removed?'

I just had to tell my dog to stop barking at the beaver  who seems to regularly swim by and check us out.

Last week I cleared some eaves-trough and it made the sound of water running, he was here within a minute seeing if everything was ok.
