And how come none of the women wind up looking like the girls in the ads? j/k I have yet to click on any of the ads (has anyone ever clicked on a FB ad?).
I see a lot. I do look at the adds to laugh at them. Its especially funny the ones related to IP's of log in. Log in from a town that isn't big enough to have a stop light, and then later see "Town ---- Needs Crime Solvers Now!!! Agents can make over $60K Year!!!"

That town prob doesn't even have a budget of $60k.

The weirdest one, was for "Meet Trekkie Girls"...

As for the singles adds, I tend to gloss over them. All heavy make up artificial, just not my type.

Same here. I think it was you who showed me the light. Either you or Dave or someone else here.

It is funny how all little boys are so similar. I have a big 3 ft tall fan in the garage. All of the little boys run up to the fan and start making noise to hear their voices reflected by the blades. They all giggle and try a higher pitch.

Yep me too.

Every little boy did it. Not one little girl has yet to do it. I am sure the girls would if they had a brother.

Now the deals begin to roll. In two hours the torture is over and all the left over stuff get donated to charity. Selling something for a buck is better than throwing it away.

Just helped two women load up the china cabinet my parents received as a wedding present in 1951. It was an antique then. It is nice to see it go to a good home.

This makes me smile. Sometimes it's good not to buy something new. Love to hear the stories behind things.

Afternoon/Evening.

At the airport, waiting to board. Had a good time away but it's always good to be home. Not looking forward to work tomorrow.
