" How about a roadmap?" reading a map while driving is no better than texting.

They could have made a compilation video like that with just my wife's driving but it would have exceeded YouTube's duration limit.

Who'd be scared to call that Cupcake? He looks like a cupcake with a head.

Man, I’m glad I didn’t do my stint as S-bux shift supervisor in this state!
In contrast, store managers and assistant store managers perform different functions and do not share in the tips, O’Neil said.
Yes, they do perform other tasks that baristas and even shift supervisors don’t, but they also sling espresso, run the till, greet customers, demo machines, clean, restock and mop the floors.
Everyone in a green apron behind the counter helps customers and serves drinks, so they should all be a part of splitting the tips, and I’m perplexed that a barista would think his or her co-workers don’t deserve it. Unless their shift supervisors and managers were dogging out on their floor duties, this is stupid.

Let’s build a robot to off the White Bear Lake Tom (killing wild fowl is permissible under the Three Laws of Robotics), wrap his breast in bacon and enjoy it with a nice coffee from Dunn Bros. — to heck with Starbucks!

‘CCO whacked Reger? Uh oh – anyone heard from DePusha lately?

It has been attacking residents, the apartment manager says knocking down a man, chasing children, scratching and denting cars.
Hey, turkey, blemish MY car and you’ll wish you were a semi-tame hotel duck at bar closing time.

I laughed so hard, tears came to my eyes.
Well done Octaneboy, you heartlessly magnificent bastard.

Heh, Octaneboy.
Strange weekend. I bought art, ate bacon, listened to classical music at Bethel, finally caught that damn bug everyone has had and ripped on the U.

With all this focus on bacon and … (never mind) … an important event was overlooked — Friday’s Second Drunken Spelling Bee, now with a new, PC name!

That bug is pretty well traveled. I had it earlier last week, but I figured I had picked it up from my sister’s kids in Fargo over Easter weekend. It ripped through her whole family, and also hit both my parents last week too.
