      Ha here too. Although at the Walmart near my work we’ve had two notable incidents recently: two women, arguing over a man apparently, were fighting, and one tried to mix bleach and ammonia on the other to smother her in toxic fumes. In another incident, one or more disgruntled customers attempted to set fire to the paper towel aisle. People in Walmart be f-ing up.

        When Lori and I first moved to Lawton Oklahoma, day number one, she was going to get some cleaning supplies at a Walmart and there was a police shootout in the parking lot. The officer actually shot through the front windshield of the patrol car. I sure don’t miss that place.

        Fat dudes need good clothes too.

          Where does he live?  Because it's not that uncommon here.

            Many years ago, when I was in high school and working at Wendy's, a coworker did this by mistake afterhours while cleaning the iced tea dispensers.  We had to evacuate the building for a bit, to let the fumes dissipate, but the dispensers were the cleanest I've ever seen.

            Ugh.  Dallas suburbs.

            I'm honestly surprised he's never seen this before.

                I was also surprised. But, he's in the burbs so I can see why it wouldn't be as common

                  Which is why I won't shop there. Nothing against anyone that does…just not for me.

                    Unfortunately I do not believe it had a similar effect on the combatants.

                      Just handed in my two weeks at the brewery I work for to pursue a new opportunity that fell in my lap while I was visiting a friend in Kona, Hawaii.  Lot's of bittersweet feelings, but I couldn't be more excited for the new gig…

                      Gonna be helping a much smaller and newer place up their beer game in serious way...

                              Ola Brew Co.  It’s actually just a block or so from Kona’s tap room.  Only been open 6-8 months so far, so it’s super new…

                              And thanks all!...

                                Is this a Hawaiian thing, or are they just really bad at picking an original name for their breweries…  😃

                                  If I’m not mistaken their native tongue has a limited number of vowels and consonants. So I’d say it’s probably a consequence of that.

                                      Five vowels, eight consonants in the modern Hawaiian alphabet.  It makes for a lot of similar looking, but very melodic sounding, words.

                                      But most importantly, congratulations, Mike!  That sounds like an intriguing opportunity and a massive life change.  I'll be looking forward to your updates on it all.

                                          It looks as if the fish is practising saying its own name…
