First civilian

In 1984, President Ronald Reagan announced the Teacher in Space Project, and McAuliffe learned about NASA’s efforts to find their first civilian, an educator, to fly into space.[20] NASA wanted to find an “ordinary person,” a gifted teacher who could communicate with students while in orbit.[6][15] McAuliffe became one of more than 11,000 applicants.[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christa_McAuliffe

Instructions unclear. Anyone know how to clean a popcorn ceiling?

Some do, some don’t. If you don’t find one right away you gotta keep trying and you’ll find one eventually.

Grab a shovel and be the change you want to see.

They just tossing everything at the wall to see what sticks.

Squirrels. Cute as hell in the wild, not so much in my attic. They are tiny little destructive machines.

Reminds me of a joke I heard…

Kid goes to his father, Dad what does a vagina look like?"

Dad: “Before sex or after sex?”

Kid: “uh… before sex.”

Dad: “Like a rose, with all it’s pedals in full bloom”

kid: thinks for a second. “huh ok. What about after sex?”

Dad “Ever see a bulldog eating mayonnaise?”

Industries?

I’m sure that’s the first thing he’d fill it with. His personal joint roller would probably be able to go on vacation once in awhile too.

I’d bet Snoop Dogg would love one of these.

It’s already out, and as expected breaks mods.

I figured lol. Mind you this one isn’t all that loud when it runs… mainly just fan noise that drowns out the hum unless the rotating plate starts squeeking and sings the song of its people.

I much prefer that over the old sound… always sounded like a 3 ton truck was backing up in the kitchen when it went off.

The timer display. Although if you listen really closely you can still hear it try to beep, but you have to be standing right next to it in a quiet room.

The beeper on my 41 yr old Microwave died a few years back during a thunderstorm. It was like a dream come true.

I’ve always put their meds into some wet cat food, that has usually gone over well in my case. I’ve got 4 rescue cats going in on Monday to get done and another three next month, hopefully these ones all handle things smoothly as well.

We had bikes before cars, that wasn’t the problem. People wanted the luxury of cars. You could go faster in heated comfort along with your entire family and cargo for hundreds of miles with next to no effort in virtually any kind of weather, something bikes still can not do.

Even if we had modern tech with bikes 200 years ago the rise of cars was inevitable due to their convenience and low cost at the time. Combine that with the push of the car industry and that most people were unaware of the true cost of the damage cars were causing, and bikes never stood a chance. Even now, bikes simply can’t replace cars for everyone but at least they can make a dent in the problems that got us here.

The Pinto wasn’t all that bad… after the first couple years when they moved the fuel tank and made them a little less explody they were kind of fun little cars. Mine only caught fire on me twice.

My old large dog Orion used to sometimes share “his” queen sized bed with me. Other times I had to sleep on the couch.

I remember rushing home to catch The Flintstones.

Sometimes you’d go to pick up the phone to call someone but you couldn’t because your neighbor was busy talking, so you’d have to put the receiver down gently in hopes they didn’t hear it and think you were eavesdropping on them.
