    All the super bugs hang out in the hospital hallways. One thing that I can always count on - getting sick when I go to the hospital. Took home RSV last time I was there (visiting my mom). Shoulda wore a mask.

    Hoping for the best for Jordan. Take nothing for granted. Ugh.

    If you want some scary numbers, about 100k annual deaths are from hospital-acquired infections (“nosocomial infections”) and some 250k overall are caused by medical interventions itself eg unintentional errors (“iatrogenesis”)

    The OL situation is just beyond hilarious but completely predictable. Sark will walk out the door with the boat anchor taking him under...

    I was at the local Honda dealer a few years ago buying a 4-wheeler for my son. The salesman and I went back and forth until he finally said that he would have to go ask the "business manager" to go any lower. He came back and said, "Sorry, that is as low as I can go. I cannot go any lower". To my advantage another salesman was on the phone in the adjacent cubicle and he was talking rather loud and he agreed on a deal for the same 4-wheeler that I was trying to buy at a lower price than what my salesman was offering. I just looked at my salesman. He was pissed because he just heard what I had heard. I walked out with a sweet deal on a 4-wheeler.

    what an asshole. did you switch sales person so the other dude get the commission instead

    Going through my dad's stuff after he passed last March we found at least three medium sized totes of old power cords, cables, and phone extensions. I say at least three because I'm still running across loose ones and small boxes of them. He had two entire totes containing owner's manuals on everything from telephones to boat motors. Power tools, televisions, computers, monitors, electric knives, electric razors, you name it. He kept the manuals on everything, going back to the 50s. It's amazing. And I have to dispose of it all.

    My wife and I are gradually but definitely reducing our junk like that so that our kids don't have to go through the same thing when we depart this mortal coil.

    there’s a made-for-SyFy channel movie script in this, about a dead guy who still lives on in a RJ-45 telephone wire tangled in his kids junk pile

    There was an article on Bloomberg that said boomers are passing down shit that their kids don’t want. Got me thinking wtf am I gonna do with an English tea set, a carved elephant tusk and a bunch of ornamental pewter plates and goblets.

    Sell it to other boomers before they die.

  7. How much do you suppose you dote on your kids compared to the entire population?

    I’d say im 90th percentile, and the wife at 85th due to her being more disciplinarian at times.

  8. We’re away from home and I forgot to pack my toothbrush so I announced ill just borrow my toddlers’ instead. Wife vetoed it, claiming we have different mouth biomes and bacteria and whatever.

    Gang, does that sound correct?

    (Then I remembered always keeping an airline amenity kit in the car for clutch situation)

    So apparently young college kids have what’s called an area code boyfriend or girlfriend. Basically I’m off to college we can both date whoever we want. But when I’m back home, we’re exclusive. Learn something everyday

    This was codified in the book of Ludacris, chapter 3, verse 7
