Every now and again I see something random or funny, and just like a lot of you, I needed a place to put them.

At any given time the urge to sing "In The Jungle" is just a whim away... A whim away... A whim away...

    This is the entire broudcast day from NBC for June 6th, 1944.

    For those not on the lines, this is everything they knew and heard of D-Day as it unfolded.

    It's a bit long, but an interesting read about how a society could handle technological unemployment.

    Imagine a society burdened by an unlimited supply of young men with no responsibilities, no role, nothing to do. Can't imagine? -- go visit it. Here in Wilmington, follow MLK Boulevard down to 10th street. Don't forget to take your kevlar vest. Be out before dark. Good luck.

    No, not every problem is solved technologically. Some are created that way.

    Some of these people that call in for work all the time crack me up. You've had 2 father, 3 mothers, an aunt and your brother all die in the last 3 months? You look remarkably well put together for someone who's very presence means death for those you love....

    Most of the stuff I see on kick starter is crap, but this one actually seems pretty useful and decently priced.

    We have 5 rap/pop stations in town, and inevitably a different one is playing on every radio in this place. And because they each have less than 10 songs in their repertoire, I essentially listing to "Bruno Mars - That's What I Like" on repeat. All night. Every night. The second it ends on one station it starts on another. I can't think of any other song that has ever made me feel so angry.

    My sympathy. And thanks 'cause now I don't hate it that both my co-workers live with earbuds isolating them from the world.

    Sorry about your ears getting raped. 
    Reminds me of the Time I was working in this warehouse decades ago. We had a manager who liked country and played a country station on the pa system.  Achey Breakey Heart was a hit. Heard it 5 times a day, minimum. That song kills me. There's no break! And the chorus is the same notes as the verse! It's just the same annoying melody over and over! I think there's only two chords played back and forth for the whole damn song!!!!!!!  :(

    I remember watching this movie with a friend about 20 years ago. We used to go to Blockbuster and rent the strangest things we could find, mixed with war movies (hamburger hill). Good times.

    I know I'm a few days behind here, but I just found out that Daniel Day Lewis is retiring. Phenomenal actor that is responsible for so many memorable roles. He will be missed.

    I have a massive chest freezer (6'x4'x3') so I have a habit of grabbing food when it on sale (vis-a-vis emergency rations) and freezing them for later. After the blueberry acquisition today, I have 50 pounds of frozen blueberries, 120 baguettes, 80 friend eggs, 40 trouts, 9 boxes of otter pops, 15 cornish game hens, and 80 cans of juice just chillin' in the freezer. What's the strangest thing you have frozen?

    A buddy of mine had a pet sugar glider that died. He put him in his freezer till he figured out what to do with it. After several years later he finally got rid of it. Became somewhat of a joke

    I had signed up for the free subscription to CA a while ago. Just now I happened to be looking at them, and I noticed the last one I received was dated August 2017. Da fuq?

    Over the course of today alone, we went from 60 degrees, to snow, to 90 degrees, to 65 degrees with rain, to 95 degrees with winds, and we are stopping for the night at 85 degree wet heat with no breeze.

    No wonder all of my employees have respiratory problems...
