Yum: Cherry Chocolate Diet Dr. Pepper makes me happy. I can’t take a sip without smiling.

Perhaps it’s my chocolate addiction. Perhaps it’s associations with chocolate covered cherries at Christmas…

Catalytic Converter Theft: A coworker’s catalytic converter was stolen yesterday. It’s happening all over the country. If you have a vehicle with a high clearance, like a Toyota 4Runner, consider going to a muffler shop and…

I just learned something about LJ.: If you make a ‘friends only’ post, and then a bunch of people comment on it, and then you make it public, all the comments will be immediately and irrevocably deleted.

I understand the reasoning for…

One Percent Inspiration: I have a list of ideas. I carry it around in my pocket (in a PDA). They are big ideas, for difficult projects, with commercial viability, such that, if I were the risk-taking sort, I could quit my…

The Guv'ment Keepin' me from my Drugs!

Mon, 25 Feb 2008 17:04:16 -0500

The Guv'ment Keepin' me from my Drugs!: I had a headache today at work, but didn’t have any drugs on me, so I got some ibuprofen from a coworker. It was reasonably effective, reducing the headache to a level that was no longer distracting. However, when I’m home, my preferred drug is ketoprofen, brand name Orudis. One pill always make my pain go away within 30 minutes. (Apparently, it’s popular for use on horses.) A couple years ago, it disappeared from stores. I didn’t know why, but I quickly bought a dozen bottles on eBay.

Link: A woman gets on a bus with her baby. The bus driver says: “That’s the ugliest baby that I’ve ever seen. Ugh!” The woman goes to the rear of the bus and sits down, fuming. She says to a man next to her: “The driver just insulted me!” The man says: “You go right up there and tell him off - go ahead, I’ll hold your monkey for you.”

Reuse

Reuse: At Home Depot, I overheard a woman asking an employee where she could donate used building materials. Whether it was items such as tiles or cabinets that had been removed and replaced, but were still usable, or just excess paint or boards, she felt bad throwing it away, but didn’t know what else to do with it. The employee didn’t have an answer for her, and I didn’t, either. I knew about the Baltimore Free Store, but that seemed too far away. Now, I know what the answer should have been: …
