(We are talking about the Flowbee, right?)

A few years ago there was a commercial for a pet version
of the Flowbee on TV, it cost more than the human one!



edit:
I am losing some hair, I lost one last year....

Another is having a dustbuster beside the bed to vacuum up biscuit crumbs :)

Another is using your tummy button for the salt when eating celery in bed.

Depends on if you have an innie or an outie.

I'm definitely not going bald, thick strawberry blond hair, hairline of a teenager and no grey, not bad for 55..


You could stand a slight smile, though. ;-)

I'm pretty sure I bought the seeds for these "red shamrock"
plants from Publisher's Clearing House (after I swore I'd never
buy another plant from them). (Yes, PCH does sell things besides
magazines. If you enter their contest at their website -pch.com-
often enough, you'll be shown lots of things you can buy now and
pay for later.)

Someone told me once that they're not a true shamrock.

I'm not only surprised that they've grown at all, I'm also quite
proud of them. They flower a few times a year. They're flowering
now so I took a couple of pix.

I asked "Siri" to set a timer for 60 minutes. He* spoke
this as well as showing it on the screen.

Once I was in Copenhagen and asked for a beer.
She said "Smil for helvete" (Smile damn it) to me :)

As regards the smile narrative :) in my experience - it can be very difficult to synchronise and then capture the exact fraction of a second when a smile works wonders on the face, instead of recording for posterity - a lip attaching itself at a random angle to a tooth or two - or someone at a later date asking where they too could get a letterbox made of themselves :)

two-fifths of the 221 passengers hit by trains were drunk at the time of the accident.

Just as well we know that a lot more than 221 passengers travel by train in Japan, Rob. Otherwise that statistic would be saying something completely different to me...

Another is having a dustbuster beside the bed to vacuum up biscuit crumbs :)

Leaving aside the "impale first - ask questions later" issue of startled cats, as pointed out by Donald... is the device to be used before you get in? Or whilst you're in, Zappy? I ask because the former seems a terrible waste of fresh crumbs to me :)

As for the salt cellar suggestion... yes. Good idea, Chris. I would definitely want to vacuum the salt off the celery before I ate it - making outy buttons quite labour saving in my view :)

Love the photo's! Tosca is soooooooooo cute Janne! And that plant is gorgeous Suzie. Do the flowers have any scent?
