LOL! So very true...

Today I learned that it doesn't matter what the heck your body's age is, as long as you are young at heart, you *can* hang out with people 15+ years younger than you, and it's not a big deal.

/Is so very amped up.

Sounds cool to me. It seems like I go to Lowes once a week and always drop $100-200 on home projects. I love Lowes, it's so much better than HD. At least in our town anyway.

Yeah, I just dropped $200 at Lowes 30 minutes ago....you cannot get out of that place for under $100!

Lowes is far better than Home Depot....MUCH better lighting, better organized and better staffed.

On Glenn's theme: I learned that Zenzizenzizenzic has more Zs than any other known word in the English language. It means to the power of eight in math. it is for the most part a "dead" word today
