Random Thoughts XI (Eleven Pipers Piping)

[NWICY]

Stories from a plane. First flight the guy next to me was wearing a marathon finisher shirt. I think that's what he did prior to boarding because the BO was ******* rank. He went to bathroom at one point and I caught him sniffing himself when he came back. I wanted to be like, yeah, it's you who reeks.

Next flight I get a lovey dovey couple. Like, lights out they start making out. She puts his coat over their laps and I wonder if I'm going to have to ask them to please stop because I know where your hand is, girl. After a while I realize she's crying and he's consoling/sucking her face. Then lights come on and they are chatting about russia/politics and I see her shirt says marxist.com and her phone screensaver is a sickle and hammer. At this point I bury my nose in my book (I got through all 300 pages on that leg!) before I get a call for an interview with Mr. Mueller.

If getting a hand job on a plane is wrong I don't want to be right.

At least they didn't try to join the mile high club right next to you.

I wonder how much it costs to franchise a Fazoli’s.

We toured the University of Minnesota with my daughter Saturday morning. We were pretty impressed. The central campus is pretty similar to ISU but a bit more crowded and has a couple roads going through it. As we were leaving, we went to the parking ramp and were waiting for the elevator. The door opens and a couple is in there totally making out and doesn't realize the door is open for about 5 seconds. I decided my daughter can't go there.

Sorry about that. I just love them college aged girls.

Ok.....what am I missing? Why am I in Madison now? I'm positive the joke flew over my head.

I visited Mad Town when I was a senior in HS and quickly came to the conclusion that I probably wouldn't get much studying done there. So I went to ISU instead........

At least $250,000 liquid assets and $750,000 investable

It's on our agenda to look at it some time. I believe their's some limited reciprocity with Minnesota. She also wants to look at EIU, unfortunately. She just got her ACT score yesterday. It's a pretty good score so she may end up getting some really good offers from private colleges. Although it's great news, it does complicate the college search a bit.

Way to go grumpy. You turned on his beautiful morning into a crappy cold windy day.

Think that is how my sister and her doctor daughter both ended up at Wartburg. Those 30 something scores and scholarship thingies. Niece then went on to the Carver College of Medicine.*




*I never call out that larger institution that the med college is part of off.

Interesting things I learned yesterday:

1) While browsing around on findagrave.com I discovered that my grandparents (if they were still alive) would be celebrating their 100th wedding anniversary this year. My parents celebrated their 60th year together this year.

2) findagrave.com is a really depressing name for an ancestry website
