Sometimes I wish I had taken up a career that involved a lot more public speaking. It's one thing that seems to come really naturally for me
Nice one Jorge. Cool.

speaking of smells..having to get up and pick up dog poop at 2 and 4 am that smells bad is no fun..makes a person have a bad nights sleep..its like picking up a thin, wet sausage gravy with a dog bag..

Taking the MINI in for routine warranty service this morning. I normally request a loaner, but by the time I get home, they’re calling me that the car’s ready, so I’ve opted to wait today. I’m sure that means it’ll take three hours.

Not a knock against a Mini, I had a hell of a lot of fun driving one as a rental. But now that I’ve thought about it after reading your post, I haven’t seen one of those out in the wild in seemingly years
