    Waking up to find that an articulating joint that worked just fine without pain yesterday, doesn't want to behave that same way today. And then, wondering, "what did I do?", and coming up with nothing. Just is what it is.

    Pizz, moan, grumble grumble...

    Isn't every joint a joint that articulates?

    Well, it's supposed to be, thus the problem. lol

    Sometimes my sentences are poorly distilled products of my thought process, a jumble.

    Just because they’re meant to doesn’t mean they do

    If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

    Simultaneous posts, interesting.

    I know what you mean about the sentences. The worst is when my mouth can't keep up with my brain and my eight year old son corrects what I said!

    Package of parts for the new motorcycle departed Anaheim CA on the 29th, arrived in Memphis on the 1st. Nice!, I thought. It arrived again on the 1st, a few hours later. OK. On the 2nd, it arrived, again, in Memphis.

    WTF? Not this again.

    But, then, on the 2nd it departed Memphis to make the 110 mile trek to the local Post Office. Still traveling on the 3rd. Didn't arrive on the 4th. Now it's the 5th, and it's still "In transit to next facility."

    I wonder where that is? The next facility. They could have ridden a bicycle from there to here and back by now.

    Still out on patrol. Memphis should change the name from Post Office to Lost Office.

    When drivers who are making a right-hand turn, think they have to swerve to the left a bit before turning to the right.

    I was following a pokey person that was going to turn right. Signaled w/ their blinker... very nice! Moved over into the right-turn lane so I could get by on their left... even nicer!! Then, when I'm almost alongside them, they move a foot to the left!!

    Do these morons think this will facilitate their turn to the right if they first turn to the left?

    Every so often I see another driver who knows how to drive and I'm always tempted to follow them to their destination so I can congratulate them and give them a solid pat on the back. But to not be creepy, I just give them a thumbs-up and say "well done, sir."

    My daughter, Son-in-Law, and three grandkids are moving to Florida (again, GRRRR!) Going from seeing them 2-3 times a month to 2-3 times per year, I hate.
    (for the "Things I Love" thread, the 7-year old said "Granpoppie, you're the best Granpoppie, I love you." He's old enough now to understand the distance and separation between FL and PA.

    I have done that several times. That's why I now set up the coffee the night before.

    MFers on Facebook Marketplace. Made a deal with the CTS V seller for picking up this weekend at a set price. Then he stops responding to my text messages for 2 days. Then he finally says “Sorry boss, I started putting a stage 3 cam in it. If you want it when I’m done it’ll be more money.” Fawking pissed.😡
