It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

What's going on in NH?
Not too much this evening.

Fam has gone to bed. I'm not far behind...

...and winter will make a return tomorrow.

Shocking...eh? ;D

Our lack of winter or the quality of sleep?

Your lack of winter.

I sleep...some nights better than others.

Howdy!

Why is eCommerce so much easier than shopping in person?  Stopped by a Home Depot tonight to look at/buy a washer/dryer set for my new place.  Spent probably 15 minutes or so in the appliance section looking around.  Nary a soul noticed I was there (granted, it was later, but not busy) even though a few associates walked by as I was opening the washer/dryer doors, intently reading labels, etc.  Left and ordered online (smoking deal otherwise I would have shopped elsewhere).  [bang] [bang] [bang]

The weather has been quite manic here lately.

BrickNMortar would do a better job if there were no eCommerce.
Not that it would be remotely possible, nor without it's drawbacks.

I'll never buy a pair of footwear without trying it on first.
I very rarely buy more than one pair of a particular model of shoe.
So internet shoe buying is a non starter, for me.

Home depot is the problem.  We just got a new washing machine and drier from a local third generation family owned appliance store.  Thanks to their advice we got better machines than we were considering for less money.  Bought on Saturday, installed on Tuesday.  We have been using them since having a bad experience with PC Richards about twenty years ago.

Gotta try on shoes, pants, well, most clothing.  I can't believe people will buy something expensive like a couch and not sit in it first.

It's a "no pom pom" friday for this one.

We're in the single digits:  Eight more sleeps / work days and I can have a weekend.   [thumbsup]


Not sure what Bicks is talking about but we have winter here today.  All good with me and the trees.  And it's good for our auto show vs the baseball team's home opener weekend.  


Need to get cracking.   Have a ______ weekend!  [beer]
