twicketfacePresidential issue #5 - I would enact legislation so that there is a standard of living when it comes to houses and houses that do not meet that level will not be built. No more trailer parks being destroyed by tornados.
Invention #1 - radios that have a display on them (for Public Radio), including the guest's name, the phone number if you'd like to call in, website with more information about the guest, and so forth. No more swerving off the road trying to write down information as you listen. The radio would have a memory feature so you could save the information too.
Yesterday I was in the Sheboygan office for a feedback session. For all the crap that my 'home' office talks about them, they were remarkably pleasant and welcoming. Just another example of how important it is to make up your own mind.
My parents bought a cottage/house in Waupaca yesterday. Well, they got an accepted offer on it anyway. They will be closing towards the end of August. I'm excited for them; it's always been a dream of my parents to live by the water and I think this will likely be their retirement home once they are ready to call it quits from the working world. Marie and I haven't seen it yet, but the pictures look nice.
Presidential issue #6 - I am in favor of disbanding/completely revamping NASA. I see it as a group that basically has unlimited spending to cover for their multiple fuckups and the money could be better spent elsewhere. I'm also in favor of disbanding NASCAR, but that's a different issue.
Last night blood nearly shot out of my nose, as I witnessed a game show contestant state that 34+66=60. I understand the pressure of the moment, but by the basic properties of addition, the answer had to be at least 67. Can't I win money just for knowing better?
Around 4:30 this morning, I had to play Investigate! That! Noise! It wasn't fun. The sound of knocking outside had me don my bathrobe and cautiously head downstairs. With our backyard fenced in with 6 foot fencing, I'm not all that worried about an intruder. Of course, things feel a lot different at 4:30 am. Turned out to be nothing. And just about the time I was ready to fall back asleep, the alarm went off.
The demo version of Blue in the Face is pretty wonky. Yeesh.
Yesterday, I had something happen to me that has never happened before. If you can guess what it is, I'll send you something in the mail.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jonnyv can't participate, since he guessed it last night while chatting with me. So, answer my poll and maybe you'll get something neat. Maybe it'll be a picture of me. Maybe it'll be a blank notebook with some pages ripped out. Maybe it will be one sock. The possibilities boggle the mind.
