There’s a shortage of distilled water in Lewisville, TX. Wal-Mart was out, as was Kroger and WinCo. Luckily, CVS had some but the price seemed marked up at $1.99 a gallon.
Apparently there’s something called the Murdaugh trial and I have no clue what it’s about other than some people are dead.
I read somewhere recently in which someone compared YouTube to the modern-day version of the Library of Alexandria. I totally get that comparison.
That photo is what the back of the wheel of The Price is Right looks like.
I heard a great conspiracy theory the other night. Most mattress stores are money laundering fronts. The more I think about it, the more I believe it. There are a plethora of them, and you rarely seem them busy with customers. Eat your heart out, Walter White and Marty Byrde.
A girl gave me her phone number yesterday. I really wish I could share it because it’s a really cool phone number and super easy to remember.
A funny reply to a tweet I read, “Jesus never read the Bible.”

The XFL is a thing again. Anyone remember the player with “He Hate Me” on the back of his uniform? Well, in case you forgot the story behind the name:
“Basically, my brother’s my opponent,” he said. “After I win, he’s gonna hate me. It is what it is. It’s a saying I was saying when I’d feel something wasn’t going my way. For example, (when) I was on the squad in Vegas and coach was putting other guys in.“If I felt I’m better than them, you know, hey, he hate me. See what I’m saying? Give me a chance. That’s all I ask. It came from the heart. Within. The way I felt.”

DaughterGeeding had her braces removed yesterday. I promised her I wouldn’t post any pictures.
My Elvis research has led me to his friendship with Sammy Davis Jr. Both were supposed to star together in a prison escape movie in which they were chained to each other. But, the Colonel, like he often did, held Elvis back because he feared Elvis staring alongside a black man would be bad for his career.
BoyGeeding was telling me about a new rule he doesn’t like, which has been implemented at his school. Boys have to hold doors open for girls. Girls, even if they want to, can’t hold the door open for any boy. If there is a line of students going through a door and a boy is holding the door open, and another boy passes, that boy would take over for the other boy. If this rule isn’t followed, then a student would get a demerit and then a parent-teacher conference. BoyGeeding said all the boys are getting around this by all of them lining up at the back of the line. I’m all for instilling manners, but this is a bit overboard.
One thing that annoys me in Christian circles, and this happened recently at my church’s men’s retreat, is that unsubstantiated science is thrown around. For instance, if the Earth was ten feet closer to the sun we’d burn up, or if it was 10 feet further we would be in a winter wonderland. The Earth’s orbit is not a perfect circle to begin with:
During the first week of the new year, Earth moves closer to the Sun at about by about a mile each hour. The following week it’s moving away from the Sun by about 100 miles each hour, a month from then it’s more like 600 miles each hour. The Earth-Sun distance varies per each 3.4 million miles over each year. So fear not, Earth’s habitable is quite a bit larger than your local facebook scientist would have you believe.
I’m still on my Elvis kick and recently found out that he hated seafood so much he banned it from Graceland. It’s nice to have something in common with The King, other than having a failed marriage.
One redditor’s McDonald’s is experimenting using reusable containers for dine-in orders. From the comments, there’s a lot of concern about whether they’ll be washed properly.
