   In our area we have 4 fairly decent classic rock stations that I listen to in my car. So if one starts playing a song I don’t care for I can just hit the button for the next station. But I don’t like having to listen to ads, so most of the time I just plug my 64GB mp3 player into the aux jack. It’s loaded with music from 1955 through 1990. My 18-year old car doesn’t have bluetooth and all that other fancy stuff.

   Zelensky was wearing the uniform of his army. How did he know a different culture would deem it inappropriate?

   I only know about it because I worked at gas station where it was sold and some middle-school kids came in and tried to convince me that the law only applied to smoking tobacco. I wasn’t convinced.

   I use an address book. They’re easier to find when they’re in alphabetical order.

   Five minutes of show for every 10 minutes of ads. Hardly free.

   When I was in school the first Teacher’s Institute day usually fell on my birthday, the teachers had to go to school but the kids didn’t. As a working adult I never got my birthday off, except the three years I was in the Army. We were required to visit the dentist on our birthdays. What fun!!

   I was thinking about wooden playpens. You can see them in old movies like “Back to the Future” or “Please Don’t Eat the Daisies”.

    When I was 15 my father signed me up to be a patient at a dental school, letting the students practice on me. I was there for 3 years and had extensive work done for a fraction of the price. I have great respect for dentists. As an adult I’ve needed very little additional work done and a trip to the dentist usually just means a cleaning.
