True story - one of my GP dogs thinks anything taller than him is a mountain and he must climb it. A few days ago he was on the buffet and knocked off a basket-o-stuff that has no home but needs to go somewhere. In that basket was a cassette tape that landed far enough under the buffet that I'd missed it when gathering back the scattered contents. The cat saw the shiny brown ribbon and decided it needed cat-i-fied. When I came home from work that next morning, there was about 5 or 6 yards strung across the carpet. I definitely thought about whether it was worth searching for a pencil before even looking at the name of the tape.

I've been seeing Schwan's trucks here in Southern Alabama. Couldn't get it to follow me home.

You tried?

Some of you came from the "If you stop crying I'll buy you something" generation.

I came from the "If you don't stop crying, I'll give you something to cry about" generation.

We are not the same.

I haven’t seen this yet but maybe it was mentioned…

But…. I remember when we had to learn this.

Still have some of those here. There’s a candy shop in the Old Market that has them in stock last time I checked.
