More Thoughts Too Short for a Whole Blog Post

When was the last time you made Jiffy Pop?  We made some at the cabin.  The Husband has the "Jiffy Pop Touch" and always manages to catch it just right before it burns.  The Husband has many talents!

(I know I just did a "More Thoughts Too Short" post, but I accumulated a lot of thoughts over the weekend.)

I have a pair of Worktunes hearing protection (for mowing the lawn that allow me to plug in my ipod) that have suddenly stopped working.  The Husband took them apart and checked some things in hope of finding the problem to no avail.  So I was checking out hearing protection with an mp3 player input on Amazon and I could not believe some of the picky reviews!  People complaining about the quality of the bass levels or the midrange tones.....  GOOD GRIEF!  These are not intended to be high quality headphones for listening to Yo-Yo Ma play a Stradivarius or anything - they are for listening to music or podcasts WHILE YOU'RE MOWING THE LAWN OR RUNNING A MACHINE SHOP!  For Pete's sake, I'm so happy I can listen to something other than the drone of the lawnmower I'm not going to nitpick that the bass tones aren't as rich as I'd like!  *eyeroll*

I was thinking that a crossover episode called, "Honey Boo Boo Meets the Duggars" would be pretty hilarious.

The Daughter has been glued to the weather channel.  She finds weather events to be totally fascinating.  Sometimes I wonder if she might go into meteorology.

I am worried about Randy Travis.  I hope he gets some help before something really awful happens to him, or someone else.  If you haven't heard anything about him lately, just google his name and read the news articles that come up.  :-(

Only in the North Country: "An Albany County man was jailed twice Sunday after he tried to burglarize a Lake George restaurant, then was charged with driving while intoxicated after he got out of jail, police said."

The Husband suggested I fill up the truck with gas today - with Isaac coming through the gulf, gas prices are sure to be spiking.  I hope and pray everyone in Isaac's path take the proper precautions to stay safe, and if it hits New Orleans I hope and pray all that they have done since Katrina proves to be effective in preventing another horrific disaster.

The end.

  1. LOL @ GOOD GRIEF! These are not intended to be high quality headphones for listening to Yo-Yo Ma play a Stradivarius or anything.

    I feel the same way when I read reviews like that. Especially if they are inexpensive.

    Your daughter sounds like my son and me. We are constantly checking the weather and watching weather relate news or shows. Unfortunately we don't have the weather channel anymore. :-(

I read each and every comment, and though I don't always get a chance to respond, I enjoy reading (and pondering) what you have to say. Thanks for your 2 cents! :-)
