Random Thoughts 18: The Year of Fire

My ears have been partially/mostly plugged for a good week. Echoes inside my head whenever I talk. Don’t remember this happening for so long before, so not sure what else to try. So annoying, to say the least.

That happened to my right ear. I had a bunch of hog feed from cleaning out a feed bin. Do you have hog feed in your ear?

Go get us some photos. See if you can get inside.

Got the new starter installed on the snow blower. Fired right up.

Need to rethread one bolt hole for it though. Got it wedged in as good as I could.

Black windbreaker with the words official photographer stenciled on the back. It wouldn't be a lie, it just doesn't specify who you are photographing for.

Menards is doing their 15% off on everything that fits in the bag promotion. Filled my bag with like 5 things and when I got up to the checkout I start emptying the bag the cashier was like "you should've left it in the bag, but I saw you take it out, so I can still give you the discount." I was only trying to save her some trouble because the guy in front of me had like 50 items in his bag, all of which she took out herself.

Run a promotion but try to get out of it any way you can, real smart business decisions.

15% is sort of a joke sale unless you need a bunch of small electronics.

Damn that dude from the Bills just housed a punt return like 95 yards or so.

As someone with WAY too many cans and bottles squirreled away at the moment, and can easily divert their way home from work past Ur-bahn-dah-lay HS, can you give a quick rundown on how it works?

Put them in any size garage bag, tie the top, put a sticker on the bag, drive to the location, scan the sticker, which opens the door, throw in bag, done. At the site it took me less than 30 seconds. I don't think you can transfer any money until you have $15 credit.

It takes about a week to get all the stickers and info.

I haven't heard one peep about the game tonight. I must have stayed away from ESPN enough or maybe they're pouting that they didn't get the Bama/Texas rematch they wanted.

To be honest I forgot all about it until I saw a post of the premium board

Same. I saw that and though damn...didn't that already happen? NCAA football is totally off my radar now.

I honestly didn't think about it until 2GNC mentioned it.

The football title game feels just a little like the NCAA tourney where the most exciting part is over.

I will watch but not much connection. Friend Bonnie is a Michigan alumna and big on GO Blue. CWW#2 was a Washington alumna so I used to care about them. Such much long time back we got invited to a big Rose Bowl watch party. Her work peeps. Not sure they knew she was a Huskie. Game was Hawkeyes and Huskies. So, that was fun. 46-34 Washington. Iowa scored 20 in the 4th after the game was decided.

Oldest son is a Huskie, and is everything I hate about UI, KU, UT, et al fandom. Of course, it doesn't help much that I attended Wazzu.
A while back in our family pool when UNI was doing well he was arguing that "baby schools" like UNI don't even belong in the tournament, knowing full well that his stepbrother and wife are graduates of UNI. Also refuses to participate any time UW is not dancing, and tells us that if we don't take ISU all the way we're not "true fans". And that's all just on top of all the crap I got from HS classmates who went to UW.
I lived about 5 miles from. UW, across Lake Washington. I HATE UW.

I just saw the game starts a lot earlier than it has in recent years. At least that I remember. It is 6:30 central
I might actually watch some of it.

Amazon just sent me a list of new books for me. I've owned one of them for 10 or so years.
