  1. Yes, shelf risers. Just make one out of a piece of 2 x 4 or something. if you need wood and want it ripped you can come over to my place and we can both play bull dyke with the table saw.

    I have flannel shirts we can wear like Norm.

  2. “Drop the Halloween Mask! You Might Scare Somebody”

    Schools offer suggestions for “positive costumes” (such as animals and food, preferably carrots and pumpkins) and “costume appropriateness”. Nothing too scary, gross, or saddening. Before anyone attacks me, I’m not suggesting that I approve of costumes that “demean any race, religion, nationality, handicapped condition or gender”. But, no fake fingernails or claws? No “Scream” masks, no Jason hockey masks, no Chucky. And “French maids [costumes] are explicitly discouraged”, lol. OK, I don’t have kids, so maybe it’s not for me to say, but, IMHO, this seems little political correctness gone too far.

  3. Too many bottles for a lazy susan. (Why is it called a lazy susan? Are folks named ‘Susan’ generally ne’er do wells who are lazy? 🙂 Oh, and the expression “Starvin’ like Marvin.” Who is Marvin and why did his mother not feed him?!?)

  4. Snappy, I LOVE how you’re obssessing on the shelf!!!!!

    The kitchen supply stores sell a plastic thing that looks like steps for sppices. You can see the ones in the back because they are higher than the ones in the front. Just do someting like that with a piece of 2 X 4

  5. “NSR, car like that is not expensive and expenses during the year are minimal. Toyotas are great like that. I’ve owned one for past 5 years and couldn’t be happier.”

    Yup! Still have my ’94 corolla. 250k miles later.
