Coming Soon 👀 At the beginning of April, you’ll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your

I lived in TX for 35 years. The inspections were a pain and not all that helpful for the environment. So I understand why you might get rid of them. I kinda feel badly for all the folks who spent a lot of money on the test equipment. Did the state buy them out?
Having spent time with my granddaughter, I am VERY confident that she will give her mother (my demanding child) plenty of payback for me. Puberty will be interesting to watch :-)
She is testing them. Maybe let her help make her food? I used to have a “you can eat this instead” shelf in the fridge with stuff I knew my kid didn’t hate. Apples, yogurt, string cheese, grapes, etc. If she didn’t want what I was making, those options were available BUT…. it was up to her to feed herself. I only made one meal.
Bought my first electric mower in 1981! No batteries then, just a LONG extension cord. I shared it with 3 neighbors and there was no problem about who used all the gas. Occaisionally there were discussions about who ran over the cord though.
Not just the NYT. Every newspaper I ever got had that pattern; Monday is easy, by Saturday it’s not just hard but obscure and convoluted, and Sunday’s puzzle is always HUGE.
My brother had a personal rule: when he bought music he would always include at least one choice that he had never heard of. He had some disappointments but overall got enough delight from the practice to continue it as long as he lived. After a while the owner of the little music store he frequented would set aside things that he thought my brother might have missed. It was a great collaboration (since, after a while, my brother could not resist whatever the owner suggested and thus became a very good customer).
How I used to describe spring in the midwest:Snow melts, crocuses bloom. Snow falls, kills crocuses. Snow melts, daffodils bloom. Snow falls, kills daffodils. Snow melts, tulips bloom. Now it’s summer. (In Texas spring is anytime between January 1 and the first 90+ degree day.)
why assume the smile is because something is large? maybe she is amused because it is small? or very attractive? or oddly shaped? or, um, saluting? or decorated (like the song about the blue ribbon decor? “lad, I don’t know where ye’ve been but I see ye won first prize”)?
