*no title*

Don’t you dare spread my ashes; don’t you dare. Please, please pour them into a small pile in a small place far from most folks. Pour me out in the tundra next to the lichens or pour me into a hole in the backyard and cover me with the softest and darkest dirt. Then, maybe after a few years plant a sumac or willow in that spot, just so we can all forget it as the place where my sintered body lay and enjoy it as the deep red sumac in the fall or the bounding and swaying willow tree.

20 Questions About Bathrooms: Question #5

5. Is the fact that I never use washcloths weird, or are there others out there?

I realize that I’m probably in the minority on this one, however I can’t bring myself to use a washcloth in the shower and think it’s efficient. Just give me a bar of soap. Oh, wait. Upon further consideration of the subject, it seems to me that maybe women use the wash cloths when they shave their legs,…gosh, now I’m all confused. Are the washcloths used primarily for shaving?? To find out I plan on showering with a woman,……in the near future,…..it’s for the sake of science

The Infrared Life

I have to wear an Arc Flash #2 compliant shirt; it's a large so it doesn't fit very well. I saunter around the AFB Hospital building going from electrical room to mechanical room to electrical room pushing carts with important looking equipment on it. When I walk past the orderlies, doctors, or secretaries in places that I surely don't belong, they look at me and then quickly look away because they are somehow assured that I know what I'm doing and that I'm supposed to be there.
We've nicknamed our Motel the 'Notel'. It appears that we are almost the only ones staying in a Motel with more than a hundred rooms. If you're in Dayton, OH stop by....please please stop by.

First Pole I nearly forgot about you

2762 miles

59:23 hours in the car
9 tanks of gasoline
1 peanut butter and jelly sandwich
5 Great Lakes
2762 miles driven
3 free campsites
1 speeding ticket

add all of that up and you get 2840:23! and that number means absolutely nothing!!!!

here's a quick rundown of my opinions on each of the Great Lakes:
Superior; clean, refreshing, scenic, cold
Ontario; jerkfaced, unloved, cold
Erie; Spa lake, looked like it had milk in it, friendly beaches, cold
Huron; icky icky bottom, welcoming to canines, cold
Michigan; blue, charming, popular, WARM! no, wait, that one was cold too.
