Are orange jeep cherokies the new kia soul?

Drive home was about 3x longer than it should be due to train just being stopped. That's been happening more often lately and it makes too many drivers act like complete idiots.

DS9 wants you to think there's a currency based economy happening on the station but it's secretly a convoluted RPG fetch quest based economy.

Reading a food label, pineapple is listed under "vegetables". Pineapple is a berry, not a vegetable.

Right now I've got tools in several not very good places. This is large enough that I can put all the tools here, has enough compartments that things can be organized reasonably, and there are wheels so I can just roll it to whatever machine I'm working on. Everything also locks, though I'm not sure how much use that feature will get.

Assembled!

One of the required tools for assembly is safety goggles. I have safety goggles.

My sister took me tool cart shopping so getting that assembled is today's surprise project. So far it seems remarkably well packaged. Almost as if they expect a real person to take the parts out of the box and assemble the thing.

My father got me a car tire inflator as a belated Christmas present. That will save me a trip to a gas station and $1-$2 in quarters every winter.

I wonder how hard it would be to rig a microphone/transmitter to a collar and let her live stream.

My cat should have a podcast.

If your product description contains the word "food" (for example, "cheese food product") it probably isn't.

Someone just gave me a bag of hand assembled trail mix because the person she wanted to give that to wasn't here. I'm normally not into the whole food from random people thing but she's a crazy cat lady so it's probably fine.

Wondering if I should hire an illustrator to do some drawings for the book I'm writing. For now the answer is not yet, but I should probably make some notes about places where a nice looking sketch would be helpful to illustrate a concept.
