It's not bad, especially fresh. I've been keeping the kernels in Mylar bags to help with freshness and I can add butter and seasonings after I pop it, but I really hated having to clean pots and other microwave poppers that I've used butter and oil in. I really hate hand washing and want to run everything through an automatic dishwasher these days.

I seriously thought about that. I thought I had an air popper, but couldn't find it. I do have one that I've used for roasting coffee, but it doesn't have the popcorn lid anymore. I didn't really want yet another appliance to put in the cupboard or counter so I found a collapsible popcorn popper for the microwave that works great and doesn't take a lot of space. I've been using it all the time.

One of the fellows I went through Basic Training with had a real need to pee before we got into the CS gas chamber. By the time we came out the other side, he could no longer wait, headed for the latrine at full speed.
Came out a minute later.
Very entertaining. I didn't even know he could dance!

Yesterday, upon rising, I couldn't hear in my right ear. After some probing w/ my little finger and a Q-Tip some wax came out and everything seemed normal. Same thing today, but no results. Went to a general m.d. who said he couldn't flush it out because it was too far in after my Q-Tip handiwork. He referred me to an ENT doc but they don't take emergency appointments and May 16th is the soonest opening they have. I am irked, with them, but more so w/with myself for making things worse.
It's amazing how weird it is to not have two ears working together.

I'd lay down and pour a little Hydrogen Peroxide in and let it work a while.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
I've used a Debrox Earwax Removal Kit, comes with a bulb to irrigate the ear with water afterwards. It seemed to work. I've got an audiologist appointment tomorrow for Tinnitus, we'll see what she says.

The nurse that took care of me before the doc came in said if there was any chance that irrigation wouldn't work they wouldn't even try it because if water gets behind the wax clump it won't dry out and that causes another whole set of problems.
I clipped the cap off of a new to me cigar and checked the draw. None whatsoever. The thing was hard as a rock. Oh well, I guess the draw poker could help. After poking the length of the poker from the head a couple times I still couldn't get a draw. Figured I might as well poke it from the foot end. Turns out the wrapper was folded over the entire foot! As soon as I pulled the wrapper off of the foot it had a great draw. I feel so foolish right now.

Air popper is what you need.

Keep the popcorn, I'll just eat the oil and butter
Keep downloading strange pictures whenever you find them, you never know when you'll be up on the Best Caption Game thread.
Note to myself on the inside of my studio door. I see it when I exit. "Is Everything Turned off?"
Another note to self. After slicing habaneros wash hands before taking a piss.
Where's the ROTFLMAO button?

That's what pipe nails are for.
At any given time the urge to sing "In The Jungle" is just a whim away... A whim away... A whim away...

Sticks with a closed foot get me every time. I think they're dumb; I get why they're made that way, but for me, it's a dumb idea.
Note to self: If I am going to piss outside make sure to look around first.
Because I have enough women after me.
