    Aldi & Wegman's

    Two new supermarkets that I've never heard of and will be introduced to my geographic location are opening soon near my house. If you've got any insight into either or both, I'd love to hear about it. I love food shopping and cooking - it's just my thing - I can literally spend a good hour or...

    RIP Robin Williams

    What a talent - he will be sorely missed. Just can't believe it. Feel like I've known him all my life - he was in Mork & Mindy when I was in high school. Must've struggled mightily with depression. My heart and prayers go out to his family & friends.

    Christmas gift idea for colleague expecting 2nd child

    husband's administrative assistant is expecting her 2nd child in June. He usually gives everyone a couple of bottles of wine/spirits, but prefers not to give that to her this year. I was thinking of a nice restaurant gift card, so she and her H and young child can enjoy dinner out. I figure what...

    DEA National Register of known meth labs by state

    Just read Yahoo story about a young couple in Oregon who bought a really inexpensive foreclosure which turned out to be a former meth lab. Please read below if you get a chance. Florida has something like 13 pages on the DEA site, and I believe Ohio has 17 pages of known meth lab addresses -...

    Honey Boo Boo

    Anybody out there love that show as much as I do? Yes, it's an exaggerated train wreck, but they're a family that really seems to love and enjoy each other, and Honey boo boo seems very comfortable and genuine and not at all bratty. I've never seen Toddlers & Tiaras, so maybe I have the wrong...

    What's your favorite/least favorite bumper sticker?

    This is just silly, but I love the whole idea of bumper stickers. Not so much the run-of-the-mill magnets that extol your favorite team, or ones that show support for our troops or breast cancer ribbons. They're great, but I think it shows commitment and grit to actually permanently glue a...

    Face eating naked psycho (NOT) on Bath Salts

    Does it disturb anyone as much as it disturbs me to find out that guy in FL who chewed that poor homeless man's face off was NOT on anything but pot? The autopsy revealed no other substances. He apparently had no history of violence or mental issues. Of course, he's dead, so we'll never...

    Has anyone been in touch with Exhausted?

    It's been quite a while since she's posted, and she was so worried that her difficult child had not come home. Is there any way to touch base with Exhausted just to know she's OK?
