I was upset about the low tire pressure warning light on my Bentley Continental GT Speed.
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became.
I walked down the lane and threw my martini across the lawn of the guest house.

Found out today I can either stay in Palmdale for another year then move back to Indy.....or take a management job with my agency, get a rather nice bonus but commute about an hour from my house in Indy. The lateral transfer would be a 15 minute commute, but a non-management job. The management job would get me home much sooner.

Client: "The drawer pulls are 40 dollars, but I like the look of the 17 dollar one. Are they cheap pulls, that why they are only 17 dollars?"

"Lets design my kitchen around the 8500 dollar Wolf range. I really like the way it looks."

If ya can't convince em confuse em (?) ;)

Just a stream of consciousness I guess. The subject just uncorked a lot of thoughts as many things here do.

Cheers!

I'm in my mid 40's.

100 years ago, that was the average male lifespan in this country.

Hey! You can't make Spam musubi without Spam.

the desert rats must love their spam...the grocery store here has at least 10 different varieties of it.

I notice that whenever I shop at Albertsons in Rosamond.

O.K. :confused:
The intention of the thread was to encourage others to consider issues of greater importance by mocking myself for having concerns which in the grand scale of things are so trivial. We first world folks spend so much time on "problems" like "how much hassle I had getting my cable channel selection upgraded" as opposed to "how can I help a hurting child get away from an abusive parent?".

I guess some people reject having thoughts about anything other than themselves. They have that right and in that case, would consider this thread useless.

Maybe the lack of responses to the thread is an indicator of priorities (or just a rejection of the OP).

I can't deny that eating animals is less beneficial in the health perspective. Being a vegetarian is also a greater use of the world's resources.

In the case of the video though, it seems that she wasn't concerned about health or world hunger but was concerned with the feelings of a chicken and how it was murder to eat "her little girl" (which lends me to wonder if she was grieving over how offended she felt about animals). She had some very nice trendy clothing on where as she could have bought Walmart clothes and donated the difference to feed the poor.

As far as where to draw the line is concerned... Air conditioning uses ungodly amounts of resources that could be used to help people with no heat. It is not a necessity. Money spent on organic foods could be spent on feeding the homeless (at a mildly possible expense to my health)... We make choices as to what is important to us. What I consider to be a necessity is pompous luxury to 75% of the rest of the world.

I heard somewhere a guy lecturing on the third world... he stated that 90% of the human beings on the face of the planet do not own a car.

A friend of mine was a software engineer... he was doing a job in Mexico city (decades ago) and staying at the VP's house... it got a little cold so he asked if they could turn on the heater... you guessed it, the VP of the company didn't have a heater in his house.

Back on topic... cell signal at my house is weak.. the 4G is kinda slow. :mad:

I'm debating on whether to order a wall switch with the Big Ass Fan Haiku or not...

The golf club called and cancelled our tee time. Seems a scheduled tournament got too many extra players and needed our carts. I was outraged. We had to play another, nicer course instead. Some of the guys are still talking about it!:rolleyes:

I can't even afford a used 991 Targa!
