I remember that gag! I used to have one in the early 90's. That was a very simple one that scared the crap out of people. It was so startling the way it vibrated and made so much noise! Ingenious really.

I bet that was interesting for you living in a house surrounded by pranksters! We used to prank my mom something terrible when we were younger. She'd leave my brother and I in the car to run into stores

I'm glad you enjoyed it! It's good to hear someone your age is still living their lives with some comedic relief. As we were growing up there was still so much of the old slap stick humor on television—Three

It was always fun to go into those stores. Sometimes the pop-up halloween shops will carry some of the prank/gag items but usually it's not much.

Thank you! What a fun memory about your grandmother. I really miss some aspects of the "old days" and this would be one of the major ones. We didn't take ourselves quite so seriously.

I wish I could see it first-hand! The only fly in the ointment is my nephew will be going to an indoor golf center during the colder months. I can't imagine the havoc these would cause indoors so I have

That looks so nice, Lizelle! You'll have no problem acclimating to these new people and surroundings. I'm so excited for you!

I think we're at a very perilous crossroads as a society. The level of negativity, mostly from social and mainstream media, we experience on a daily basis is very unhealthy and unnatural. Humans tend to

Everything decision we make in life has a price and it's great to weigh things out beforehand. It's great that you're putting so much thought into it. I was so young and naive when I took the leap I wasn't

Thanks. Yes, I was pro-vaccine when it all began but after learning more about them (and my own personal experience) I would never take another Covid vaccine. I took a round of Nattokinase when I learned

You're welcome. I just read this quote today, "We do not grieve for the ones we love returning to the wind & Earth but for never enough time in this place together". That pretty much sums

What a time-capsule! I think just after WWII through to the early 1960's was peak NYC. It wasn't without its problems but normal working people could still afford to live there.

You're welcome!

I'm very sorry to hear you and your family are dealing with this. No matter when it happens it feels like it's too soon. I moved cross-country when I was 24 with all intentions of returning to my family

Thank you! I managed to dodge it as well the last time it made its way around our inner circle. I think the strains now are much more tame than those first few from 2019-2020. The delta variant seems to

Happy anniversary to you! I wish you many more to come!

I had no idea they made a three cylinder! Suzuki and GEO had a few 3C's in the 1990's. It makes sense for an SUV that small. I've seen the smaller Buicks and the Trax. Ford makes a similar SUV as well,

A few episodes like this will definitely make you pay closer attention. I was hiking in higher elevations the morning before this happened to me for the first time. It was frightening. I caught a plane

Barring any huge problems everything should be done by the end of November. I'm going to be in Ohio for Thanksgiving but I'm looking forward to celebrating Christmas in our house after it's (mostly) done.

It looks so beautiful there! I really hope to visit Italy soon. Almost every traveler I know says it's one of their favorite countries.
