Another chapter of JB's train adventures. :D I'm not even looking for stuff. Everything's just there in front of me Several hours earlier on the way to work there was an older, slightly dissheveled woman sitting by 3 other commuters... Despite nobody bumping into/touching her, she suddenly screamed "ITAII!!!" ("OUCH!!"). Scared the crap out of everyone except me only because I just happened to be looking in that direction and saw that nothing happened for her to scream that. She then was quiet for the rest of the ride while everyone moved a little bit away and was uneasy. This is different than the drunken idiot though IMHO. That drunk was babbling for over half an hour!!! He was going on about train announcements, connecting train lines, CATS, time, etc. And he wreaked of booze, ciggies, halitosis, and b.o. I could smell all that from about four feet away! And when I say a 'drunk', I'm referring to a middle aged office worker in a suit...the way it usually goes down out here. Homeless drunks are often meek and avoid others while male, white collar drunks are some of the loudest, most obnoxious, disgusting people around. Man, I would give any thing to be there witnessing it all. I am always aware of my surroundings and what other people are doing. It's quite amazing while most other people are oblivious. Yeah. A lot of stuff passes by Mrs. B too. I pointed out the number of males here openly picking their nose. She thought I was nuts and being overly critical...until I pointed out some dude digging, and another dude digging, and another, and another She admitted, "I had no idea. Somehow I never noticed." It's funny ((to us westerners, or maybe just me)) because blowing your nose in public is considered rude here if it's audible. But nobody cares about or seems to notice nose picking...except me :laughing guy: So picking is acceptable but blowing is not? Houston, we have a problem. :D BTW, next time when you get off the train. Ask one of them if they need a shovel. :P Picking is NOT acceptable but nobody gives the digger bad looks if he's digging. BUT if you blow your nose and it's heard, yeah it can be considered rude. I learned that the hard way when people were giving me dirty looks anytime I blew. I had wondered why they were staring at me since I was just blowing my nose. An ex-gf told me that it was bad manners to do so. And THEN I found it written in some guide book or online. I asked one of my J-coworkers recently: "What if I'm in a bathroom stall, door closed, and blowing my nose? Is that bad?" He reluctantly answered, "Well, for me it's okay. And generally it should be fine but some people still might think it's bad." The fact that he was hesitant and stated that some still would consider it rude says a lot I think. Saw two nose pickers this week. The last one was sitting next to me 2 minutes ago. I had to move as he wasn't stopping. I'd rather stand in a crowded train than sit next to that nastiness. His nose picking schedule was: pick pick-scroll on the tablet-pick-scroll-pick pick pick-scroll-really pick pick Repugnant bastard Film it next time. :P

Going with this tonight, subbing Heinz Veggie Beans for Bush's. I like the cheapo hot dogs better than the expensive ones that are supposed to be better for you. Me, too! I was sent to the store to get hot dogs for tonight and I went with the cheap ones. So much tastier, with better texture. If you wonder who else is eating hot dogs today...take a bite of this link ( :yuk: ): http://www.washingto...article/2627577 150 million frankfurters! Do you have Farmer John dogs there? I grew up with them in California. The Dodger games bring back a lot of good memories. :codger: They were never available up here until last year. I don't know. I will look. Are they good? I've tried them all, and, like I already said, the .99 artery cloggers are the best. Yes, Better than Oscar Mayer. :codger:

That happened to me last month. :P

No, I have a wisk already. One that doesn't require opening and closing. :D

A light jacket should be all you need then!

Well, It's always nice to learn something new everyday.

Time to break out the "Slip N Slide"!! :codger: :D

Someone pinch me. I actually have the place to myself for a few hours. It's a fu***** miracle!!

It's an expandable wisk. Just saw an image of it doing a search.

Seems so. Never have seen that type though.

I think one of them was involved in a car accident recently. Which caused a man to die.

It's bothering me now. Could be some type of roller.

Interesting, Never seen that before. Does it open up? Maybe it is for squeezing a type of fruit or vegetable.
