It's The Plumbling Aisle!

 

The Brick worked at Home Depot one summer, in Plumbing. He still likes to wander around there, checking out what's new. A close second: the screws/nuts/bolts aisle.

Me, I head for the Garden section.

Have Fun Storming the Castle...

 

Monday Stuff On the Way to Other Stuff: Happy Memorial Day

       What did the Brick and yours truly do on this special holiday? We made a trip to Alamosa to get more parts for the deck steps, and use up what was left on the food debit card from Devoted. (City Market had a bunch of marked-down veg and meat, and were offering 10% discount to veterans. Which the Brick is.) 

      It rained, a little. We've been gulping down episodes of Netflix's The Night Agent. And now it's back to reports -- I really need to clean these out completely before May ends.

Meanwhile:

Secrets behind Steven Colbert's show -- including a dome, chandelier and stained glass hidden for decades until Colbert stepped in.

Weird things that happened at funerals.

Some very funny -- and ???? -- photos.

The girl who lived in an attic -- before she hit the big-time.

Do you really have to replace your underwear every six months?  The Frugal Girl's take on this. (Frankly, I rarely believe the self-titled 'wellness experts,' anyways.)

The "man in the red bandana" gets the Presidential Medal of Freedom. And this 9/11 hero deserves it. There's an interesting reason for the red bandanna -- don't miss this. And:

Other heroes of 9-11 -- many of them unsung.

Athletes who cheat.

Have a good week.

Memorial Day

Do You Think They're Listening?

 

Yumm...

 

It happens...

Breathless

 

I'd laugh harder at this, if I didn't know about one of  'composer' John Cage's performances.

 He sat down at the piano...and did absolutely nothing for the rest of the piece.

Then he stood up and bowed. And the audience clapped!!
