lol, Shawn, no I am not sure. The label says "wild blueberry pie". Could be the pie is wild but not the berries.Also, because of predation by vicious chipmunks and blueburds a lot of growers do cage their plants
edit: I worked at a blueberry farm, we had 3 acres of high bush blueberries and the whole plot was caged.
blueberry pie leftovers for breakfast, not a stellar experience. However, how much more American can you get---Table Talk pie made in Worcester, MA. All the while the earworm of the day is Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer. This is my life. Go figure.
Sometimes I think we don't give Mr. Beckom enough credit. Just a thought.

I just set a reminder for three weeks from now that my cigars will be done resting and are ready to try. Found out that I couldn't change the reminder color to green in Google Calendar, they only offer sage and basil, no green.

Gathering papers and crunching numbers so I can hand this mess over to my tax guy. My head tachometer shows it spinning at 3,000 RPM, so before I hit redline or liftoff, I think it's time for a walk, nap, and a cloud of smoke, in that order.
Sweden: No reason to look any further than skatteverket.se; the Swedish tax agency provides a free and very easy-to-use system for everyone to use. Skatteverket also sends out pre-filled tax forms in the beginning of April, and if there are no changes to be made, the filing can alternatively be done simply by texting a verification code found in the forms to Skatteverket’s short code.
USA 0 – 1 Sweden. Sweden takes the lead; dead-simple and free for all. Makers of personal tax software, if you’re looking to expand internationally, look elsewhere!
Level of Effort
USA: The information for filling the tax forms needs to be gathered. Some of it, such as W-2s, can be imported automatically by tax software such as TurboTax. The fact that federal and state taxes are filed separately complicates the process a bit.
Sweden: In many cases, Skatteverket already has all the information it needs – salaries, withheld taxes, paid and received interests, securities sales etc. The forms are automatically filled out and all one has to do is accept.
USA 1 – 2 Sweden. I really like how most of the process is automated in Sweden; less paper, less hassle, less error-prone
Lowered my work table two notches to prevent having to tilt my head to read the text on my monitors. Now my mice aren't at an ideal height, I may have to look into a new mouse pad mount.

I wonder how many years it will take me to stop feeling guilt or shame when I buy the ground beef with the fat percentage that I want, even though one with a different fat percentage is on sale and significantly cheaper. Habits are hard to break.
No need for guilt; keep being a discerning fellow. While there are loss-leaders in the marketing manipulation industry, most 'on sale' items are due to poor quality, overstock, low demand.

Are you sure the blueberries were wild and not raised in cages?

First post ever. Thought about writing a stupidly long, detailed play by play of today. Didnt. Too lazy.
The end.

Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

Wonder if @CalvinAndHobo will take credit for that too🤔
I think that's the perfect note to retire the bit on.

Wouldn't that be nice?
The reason our government spends so damn much money is because we keep giving it to them.
