if you are leaving a store with your hands full and are holding the receipt in your mouth, the minimum wage guy who is supposed to check your receipt will just wave you by and tell you to have a nice day.

My late lab Daisy did the same darn thing!! Funny little habit that I miss.
Sometimes she would just stand in the bowl and look at me with a real puppy kinda crazy look, she had fun.

The fold line is very different from the un-punctured tear line on invoices.
(even if 1/8" apart)

Tearing on the fold results with the address not appearing in the envelope face.

Well thats a loaded question id say 99% of the things we know we dont really need to know.
In the last hour I learned the Eurythmics made an album in 1999 called Peace and its not worth listening to

I have no idea WTF that means but it sounds like something we need to know, rarely, very rarely, like maybe wandering into a medical conference happy hour, knowing that is sure to get you laid.

You ought to see this apt. complex on the SE corner of 35th and Dunlap. I keep thinking I've seen the worst, but then I come across a worse one. And then there are several off the I-17 service roads you would never see if you didn't have business or live there. I have dodged chickens, pit bulls, crazies, you name it. I saw one today that not only had a fence around the house, but also plastic netting around the front porch and car port, so no one could reach a door. I have knocked on doors where my knuckles went through the rotted wood. WTF?

I was in the lunch room at work today when the nurses & secretaries started talking about their sex schedules with their husbands.
