  1. At Panera, I probably paid more for the presentation than the actual food.
  2. I'm the biggest, baddest atty-toooooooood... that ever rode a ten speed bike.
  3. I think the plate is older than the glass.
  4. Stuffed pizza crust. Cheese and meat, sauce on the side.
  5. The landlady has nothing to do with this. I'm paying for the work and it's only $750. I'm doing it this way so I can avoid any hassles that go along with having the landlady write her own schedule for it, which may conflict with my job and other obligations.
  6. Less than eight bucks. Technically, they're not sandwiches, but they are packed with steak and pepperoni. rs1090.pbsrc.com/albums/i364/Absecon/20170712_150723.jpg?w=480&h=480&fit=clip
  7. This landlady always has people working here. Plumbers, carpenters, electricians and more. Keeping an apartment complex up to code is a lot of hard work. There are a few things that the in house maintenance crew can do without a contractor, but big jobs such as getting the roof resurfaced requires contractors.
  8. It usually takes about three years.
  9. No, but it's a great way see what other people find to be of humor.
  10. Well, don't look at me, look at whoever wrote it into a cartoon script. I just repeated it.
  11. The paint doesn't wear out that quickly. I'm ahead because I'm following my own schedule instead of anyone else'.
  12. You have to live an uncomplicated lifestyle. Don't make things a hundred times more complex than they really need to be.
  13. It seems every time the building inspector shows up here, he's angry about the paint. Paint peels, fades and does other things in this high humidity area. Then, he would order the whole apartment painted on my landlady's bill. Frankly, I don't mind getting this done because a good, fresh coat of paint can really make this place look spiffy. But, there's usually a scheduling issue. I work nights and normally sleep most of the day. I can't afford to be kept awake all day, babysitting painters or shuffling furniture. So, this year, I decided to head off the trouble. The building inspector isn't due until May of next year. I have a three week session off from work starting next month. It means I can sleep at night, arrange for the painters and get this job done in advance of the inspector. To accomplish this, I contacted the same contractor that the landlady hires to prep the vacant apartments. I'm paying the contractor $750 to do a three day job in here. When the building inspector shows up next year, he's likely to see a place that can pass on the first try and I won't have to juggle schedules or lose any sleep. It all gets done on my time instead of the inspector's time.
  14. Caves are below the surface.
  15. 75% of the Earth's surface is covered with outdoors. The rest is covered with malls, coffee shops and dwellings.
  16. I thought I lost you at pics being from eBay.
  17. A social life is possible no matter your days off. Of course, most of the people I hang out with are either retired or have really flexible work schedules.
  18. Ain't even got a use for one.
  19. So sayeth he with the modified avatar.
  20. What happens when the pic isn't eBay? rs1090.pbsrc.com/albums/i364/Absecon/Holder.jpg?w=480&h=480&fit=clip
  21. I received the package my friend sent while he was away on a trip. It's a fancy, FDR style cigarette holder, made from all of my favorite materials - wood, brass and bakelite. Just the perfect thing for any day that I need to look smooth. It keeps the soot off my fingers.
  22. Did you buy it at Dollar Tree?
  23. A department store that won't hire Jews: Goys R Us
  24. If that's what you think it is, you didn't spend enough time listening to 70's top 40. Original lyrics: Give me the beat, boys and free my soul, I wanna get lost in the rock and roll and drift away.
  25. What do you expect Photobucket to do?
