I had a colleague once who insisted on trying to talk to me about what he'd watched on tv. The conversation would go something like, "Did you watch blah blah on TV last night?" - No Keith I never watch TV.. "Oh well what about blah diddly blah blah?" - No Keith, I really don't watch any tv.. I am sure he thought I was odd! And maybe I am!But I had a reminder today of why I don't watch tv.. The TV was on..... Hotel Inspector came on... some programme about a woman who gets called in to Hotels that are struggling, to help turn the business around... I mean, I need to know this WHY? It helps me in my daily life HOW? It doesn't, not one jot... but I got drawn in... and ended up watching 3 episodes and wasting 3/4 of the day! Grr remind me that I should NOT put the TV on! less

What is it with these folks who keep showing up and kvetching and complaining and whining when all they have to do is move on to something else?

I'd probably devote a group to each type of expert that comes in, to make it easier on the visitor to find the questions that are directed to him or her.I know of a few professionals who have expressed an interest in answering questions, including a holistic doctor. I figure if you guys enjoy it, we can turn it into a regular thing and maybe have a new expert pop in each month or every couple of weeks.What do you think? Would it be fun and would you participate and ask some questions? Are there any particular professionals you'd like to be highlighted? less

Each Phoenix escape room is built around a different story; the characteristics and style of the room are shaped with the help of accessories and interior design connected to the story. Live Escape games are a type of team building games in which people are locked in a room and have to use elements of the room to solve a series of puzzles, find clues, and escape the room. https://paniqescaperoom.com/phoenix
I really want to go to the one in Phoenix, but I don't know anyone who has tried it. less

Hearing the first couple of notes of the main theme, still gives me goosebumps. Even now, watching the trailer makes me want to run out the door and punch sides of hanging beef.

He has been talking about urine therapy lately. Looking into it, basically to find arguments with which to refute his own, I was actually surprised about how old and widespread this thing is. So, would you drink your own if convinced of his curative powers?

So taking decs down also includes putting things back to how they were, which means re-hanging the net curtains in my front window... And as I cleaned everything .. and hung them back up, I noticed.. the large net that forms the main part of the bay window, (my house is Victorian) has loads of holes in it... erm loads... Now I sorta knew this... as they are so old they have kinda just rotted away - nothing lasts forever .. but I must have turned a blind eye to it all.. But now.. with the windows all newly washed and cleaned again.. I kinda feel bad hanging holey net curtains up... and I wondered.. perhaps it's better to have NO nets for a while rather than holey ones! Not that I care what people think.. but for some reason, all of a sudden, I am uncomfortable with these holey net curtains hanging at the front of my house! But at the same ti... less

But the other day, at a fast food place (I know), the difference from what they gave me and the picture was so blatantly grotesque that I had no choice. I got a sandwich that looked like it had been dropped from the top of a building, and then kicked around for a bit Is it unreasonable to expect anything from this places.I mean, don't you get what you pay for?
