Chick Fil A

Employee A to Manager: There's a dog on the dining patio. I think it belongs to a homeless guy.
Manager: OK.
Employee B to Manager: There's a homeless guy in the bathroom. He's been in there a while I think.
Employee A: I don't think it's right to have a dog on the dining patio unattended.
Manager to Emp B: Go to the bathroom, get the homeless guy out bring him up here. (the front counter)
Emp B goes to bathroom and brings Homeless Man to front counter.
Manager to Homeless Man: Hey, what can I buy you for lunch? A chicken sandwich, fries and a Dr Pepper? What will your dog eat?
Homeless Mans reply is to quiet for me to hear.

The manager gets him lunch, he was treated with respect, they even looked after his dog. Everyone was nice and respectful. It really touched me as an example of Christ-like service.

Strange R Things

In the 1970's I had swine flu at the end of that pandemic. I remember being very very sick. During the early 80's I remember the Alar apple scare, the killer gas radon in your basement and the Tylenol poisoning deaths. Heck, in middle school I bit into a Twix candybar and there was a paperclip inside it. Laying perfectly flat between the cookie and the caramel where some factory worker had laid it in jest while bored at work.

So I was sick once in a flu pandemic and got to experience some early food tampering. Strange yes, but what's that got to do with today? I don't know. I just know I have a horrible sinus cold/infection and I'm totally laid up, unable or unwilling to do many of the things I wanted to do today. And probably tomorrow.

It's going to be slowwwwwwww going this week.

Must. Not. Destroy.

I've broke 5 tools today at a cost of $40 to unsuccessfully remove and replace a $3 part on my $1,800 reloading press.

And I feel like I'm getting a cold.

Questions/Preguntas

I spend a fair bit of time on different forums related to competition and shooting. Some questions can only be answered by someone with more or different experience than yourself. But honestly, I'd say 60% of the questions asked could be answered by just reading the rule books.

So read the rule book.

You're shipping me....

For most of my online shopping life, it's been delayed shipping that's caused me more irritation than anything. Evidently this is not going to change.

$65

Did every store I visited today just want at bold $65 dollars from me today? All but Dollar General!

Petsmart, yep. Dillards nope but only because they didn't have what I wanted. Target, yep. Toys-rus, nope my desired not in stock there either. Kroger of course they did. Haircut was only $5, so that felt like a bargain! Which a $5 haircut you don't have to apologize for most definitely is!

I didn't get the face sunscreen/moisturizer I wanted at Dillards so I bought something else at Kroger. I didn't get the primer tubes I wanted at Bass Pro because they didn't have any so I also put back $75 in impulse stuff I'd picked up while looking.

Basically I spent 4 hours driving around doing errands and such to spend $200 today.

OK, I did get a free sandwich at ChikfilA and it was great! And most of a free dinner at Outback tonight, thanks to a sponsor's gift of a gift card!
