The door that I keep locked is an exterior door. The interior bedroom door is a pocket door with no lock. In general, I do not bother to close that or the bathroom door. I only would if we had people in the backyard or the family room, visiting and I needed to use the toilet or shower or change clothes or something like that. |

A little restraint in airing your dirty laundry and you won't have people commenting on your bizarre family and quirky ways. |

I'm thinking he thinks he needs to wet the key to apply the graphite. When I was a kid, you could rub a pencil led over the part of the key that gets inserted. But I gather that the pencils are now made of different stuff and that won't work. |

I did see some pics but I have never seen anything like those pics sold in any stores that I've been in, nor have I seen them used on cooking shows or in anyone's houses.

Not a jug. > Maybe it's a regional thing? My parents were Americans and I remember them referring to jugs of milk many times. These jugs were not like the moonshiner jugs that you refer to but just ordinary pitchers. When my Dad took a jug of water with him in the fields it really was a jug that he used. The terminology was somewhat flexible. ==== |

A tree in my front yard split and fell about 4:30 this afternoon and is blocking the road. So it's nice and quiet here.

Otherwise you wouldn't have been watching him. You didn't HAVE to watch him, you know.

Good point. That would lower average gross salary to about 21K (even less with paid vacations and health benefits). And does that include servers? <shrug> They also said food costs are 42% which is awful high. I guess that's probably because they don't have to pay rent or any sort of marketing/advertising, nor adjust for any significant seasonal cover fluctuations. In which case they should be serving higher quality food at 42%. -sw |
