Yes, it was indeed Foxworthy.
This always reminds me of one of our partners. He’s originally from India and his first name is Ranjit (pronounced “Rahn-jeet”). One of the other partners once introduced him to a builder, to which the builder replied “Nice ta’ meet ya’ Ron!”, thinkin’ he had just met Ron Jeet...!!!!!

Surprised how many people never heard of or tried chocolate covered raisins. They’re ok, I prefer them in a trail mix rather than standalone. Wouldn’t necessarily seek them out, wouldn’t throw them out.
All candy in a movie theater was too overpriced for me to ever buy.
I gave up processed sugars many years ago, but I do have my cheat moments. The $100,000.00 bar was the best, hands down. I get some sugar free versions now and then.
Getting more used to the taste of dark chocolate, but prefer milk.
I managed a large independent pharmacy in NJ in the 90’s. They made chocolate covered strawberries. (They also made fudge, and had these molds for chocolate body parts you couldn’t show on network TV which, thankfully, I never saw used (but apparently they had been at some point!)
Anyway, one day a girl working in the candy department sliced up a perfectly ripe banana and dipped the pieces into the strawberry dipping chocolate.
It was the best thing a girl has ever done for me.
Yep, LUVS me some 100 Grand bars, but, I’m a caramel fiend, sooo...!!!!!

I brought a bottled water in my cargo shorts once - and the guilt and shame were too much!
We always got the butter-slathered popcorn buckets, with soft drinks, back in the day...sooo glad I’ve been able to get beer along with my butter-slathered popcorn for years now at certain theaters...!!!!!!!

I knew as soon as I saw it spelled how it was pronounced, but I don't think I would have when I was in my 20s. When I moved here and went to school to learn Dutch, I had classmates from all over. I had to have Niwanthi spell her name for me before I could figure out what she was saying her name was. I need to see it spelled so I can make a connection between the letters and the sounds they make.Yes, it was indeed Foxworthy.

I notice stargate (though I never saw the TV show) is trying to hide behind the trees

Referencing the food smuggled in at the movies theme from yesterday, hubs makes all you guys look like amateurs. Back when we were dating, we'd sometimes go to the movies. For him, a movie meant it was (full) meal time. I'll never forget the time he went to a sub shop and got an Italian sub with everything on it, including onions. He bought 2 candy bars and a soda. He wore a loose jacket with large inside pockets and stuff it all in there! 
During the movie, he pulls out the sub and the onions stunk!
A guy in the row behind us, asked him what the heck he was eating. I figured the guy would be mad; but instead, when the guy found out that it was an Italian sub, he said: "Damn, wish I had thought of that, too!"

We cheated. We'd go to Walmart and get stuff like popcorn, drinks in plastic bottles, candy bars, whatever, and we'd put it in plastig bags and we'd hold the bag by the handles and take a coat and hold it by the neck of the coat with the coat wrapped around the bag. They couldn't see the bag at all.Referencing the food smuggled in at the movies theme from yesterday, hubs makes all you guys look like amateurs.

Thank you, good to know. I will start to hoard them very soon.No you're correct, they went out of business and we were all told they'd disappear and not be made anymore. But then a couple years ago Spangler bought them and brought them back

The weirdest looking spider I ever terminated scared the hell out of me. First of all, I wasn't expecting to see anything like that when I walked into the bathroom, but to me it looked to be the size of a VW Bug (pun intended). I think I grabbed a heavy book and instituted air to ground bombing. The book hit flat and knew it hit solid. I lifted up the book and much to my surprise the huge spider was huge because she was carrying on her back what appeared to be thousands of tiny baby spiders. (seriously, not much bigger then a gran of sand, in fact, that is what I thought they were until I noticed them moving and could not for the life of me ever remember seeing sand walk across my floor) They scattered and I had to quickly run to get my "bug" spray and, I'm sorry to say that genocide followed.
I don't usually have that homicidal mood when it comes to spiders. I know that they go a long way in keeping those other more pesky insects from invading, however, this one took a wrong turn and ended up in a place that it was not allowed. I had no choice, I had to defend my property. Fortunately, until now, I never confessed to my heinous crime against spiderdom.

Mine only lasted 2 hours, so hopefully you are over it by now.I can't take Motrin but I took a tylenol around two in the morning when I woke up with chills, aches, and a low level fever. I have about an hour before I should take another one so I'm trying to hold out. Most people say it all only lasts a day or so, so I'm hoping that's true

Boy, am I glad to see sunshine today!! We had over 4.5 inches of rain yesterday. It thundered, had heavy rain bands, and lightning all day and most of last night until around 2 or 3 a.m. A tornado went about 10 miles south of us and did some wind damage. We have river flooding through Sunday. Whew!

In case you folks didn't get the memo, Monday March 29th is National Vietnam Veterans Day. Please just take a moment to remember the 58000+ men and women that never got to see life after they landed in Vietnam. I am a Veteran. It took me a long time to feel proud of that. As I matured I finally realized that I was just doing what I thought was a necessary effort for my country. I returned home and have had a good life, experienced the birth of my children and was here for the birth of my grandkids. I'm not asking for anything, I have had the opportunity to live and felt the happiness that brings. This is about all of us, but as a Veteran forget about those of us that survived and went on to a fortunate life. Remember instead those that didn't ever get that chance along with those that were emotionally scarred forever. All gave some. Some gave all!
