I had changed my Rudolph to a different source, but my edit didn't affect your post that quotes it, i.e. the pic in your post is from my original Twitter source. Do you see the pic in my original post and your quoted reply?

(yes, it's a pic in a post….)

I could only see the most recent photo, not the original.  Does the original show the top of the clear plastic piece?

Yup. The other end is two square brass (apparently) electrical contacts.

What's with the Latino guy down the street who always insists on parking his pickup truck in front og my house instead of his? That should be illegal. People are going to think I own a pickup truck with tacky flame detailing on the side….

This guy.

Rep. Trent Franks

(R-Ariz.) is resigning from Congress, according to two Arizona Republicans with knowledge of the decision.

One source said Franks would resign in the face of what the source described as forthcoming claims of inappropriate behavior.


Plus some guy from MSNBC.

So my 10 year old had her first day of FLE (aka sex ed) on Friday. Immediately after school, she and I head to the grocery store for the weekly haul. As usual, she goes her own way to explore the store, too cool to hang out with Space.

After a while, she find me and asks "Space, did you know that they make a condom with the same name as the ice cream bar?"

Taken aback by this question, I try to make a joke out of it. "I bet I can guess which one tastes better."

And her reply, "Used or unused?"

At that point, Space was left speechless. Yikes.

I generally avoid tasting used ice cream bars, tbh.

She actually did start calling me by my real first name maybe a year ago. I'm not sure why. She calls her mother "Ma." I'm not really much of an authority figure, perhaps that's part of it…

Also, the other grown men in her life are her martial arts instructors, and she calls them all by first name…"Mr. John", "Mr. Scott," etc. But I don't see her ever calling me "Mr. Space", just "Space."

I, read this quote today, and it made me laugh.

The ring was described as "jewelry". Did the guy not use a proper ring?

i'm assuming you know this, but it's not auto-tuned.  it's a cover (performed in a major key).
