I am here for the October Special
I get one free month of Ratburger.org during October. All I had to do with type in the Discount Code “Amy: Schumer’s Worst Nightmare” If I upgrade I can get fries and a large Coke. Do you think it is worth it? Super Premium Members can get a signed napkin and a PLASTIC PLATINUM STRAW. (It is the LAST STRAW you will ever need.)

I had a friend
I had a friend who was struggling meeting people. She was afraid of what they were thinking. In actuality I think the problem was she thought bad about herself and therefore thought others thought the same. On that day I had a minor epiphany. I thought about happy people in my life. I thought about when I was happy. I found that I was happiest thinking how wonderful another person was. At that time I complete forgot about me and thought about them. I find other people fascinating. I especially like when they smile or laugh. (I am smiling because I met a nice married couple around 6 AM this morning.)

What is inside?
I remember hearing in a sermon that we are like plastic bags filled with liquid. When adversity hits what is inside comes out. It can either be bitter or sweet.
We are seeing recently a lot of anger coming out. Excuses are made to riot. Instead of being “sweet” and making things better people are destroying things.

Do you laugh at yourself?
I find some of the happiest people I know have the ability not to take themselves too seriously. They can laugh at themselves and see the craziness of life at times.
A while back I put up a post about climbing up to a place and sweating buckets to see a “waterfall” that was a trickle. I was laughing at myself.... [Read More]

$100 Moving Experience
Over the last weekend I rented a van at Toyota Rentacar. I had to move chairs, tables, a desk, and various things. The crew was two ex high school principals, two retired company presidents, and a loose nut behind a wheel. The loose nut was tall and had round eyes. I forgot to mention “my boss”.
It took me time to figure out which vehicle to rent. I needed one that had a cargo bay that was about 7 feet long. I could have gone for a two ton open truck but decided a long van would be safer. I wouldn’t have to worry about rain or things falling out. This is the type I got.... [Read More]

Waiting My Turn
Have you ever struck up a conversation while you have been in line at the supermarket? I have many times. (It helps having run a cash register and knowing the time limitations.)
Today I was at Costco and there were two lines. The Japanese lady in front of me had a big bag of death AKA Snack Size Snickers. She switch to another line because it looked quicker. But when it looked like my line was going to be faster I motioned to her to go ahead of me.... [Read More]

Who called the police on me?
It was another hot day. I was trying to tell myself that excuse is enough for me not to exercise. But unfortunately or fortunately I can recognize lame excuses so I went for a hill climb.
It is interesting how I start out with the goal of going to the top but mid walk I think it is hot or this is not the day. Last week I used the real excuse that my legs were tired but that excuse was past its expiration date. I decided to go to the top.... [Read More]

Sunrise
I took this picture with my cell phone at 5:50 AM. It has been a while since I have been out with a camera to catch a Summer sun. When was the last time you saw a sunrise? Any pictures?
When is a sunrise the most beautiful? Pink strange? Reddish stage? Orange? Yellow?... [Read More]

Democratic National Con
I have zero interest in watching or listening to the DNC Convention. I don’t want to waste my time. I doubt anything new or interesting will be said. It will be the same MO as well as the same MO.
Do you have any interest to see old ideas with their masks off AKA DNC Con?

A Japanese Health Club
It is hard to explain to someone who had not lived here the amount of stairs that are in this country. There are stairs and there are stairs. I am posting some stairs I saw from a road AKA alley in the States.
This is from the road level.
This is at the top of the third flight of steps.
This is at the top. I didn’t go up there but it looks like one goes up at least five flights to get to this house.
In the first picture there are blue plastic bags. Those are trash bags to be picked up by the city garbage truck. I mention this to illustrate that living up all those steps means carrying things up and down those steps. One has to be in good shape to do that day in and day out.
These stairs are easy. They are wide and well made. Some stairs I have seen seem more like ladders than anything else. I think the only way you descend those is backwards.
I wonder what age one has to stop living at the top of these stairs. 60? 70? 80? One thing is for sure if your BMI is high there is a fat chance you will be climbing these often.... [Read More]
