Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

Start keeping a bin outside for stank you don't want in the house. There might be a learning curve, just sayin'. Bonus points if you use a burn barrel:)

he knows basic washing, has been doing one load a week for a few years, but he needs to spray/extra treat the pits of his shirts, especially anything he wear playing basketball, otherwise that stink does not come out in a regular wash. girls will not find it attractive.

That does seem unnecessarily cryptic, Ginger. I haven't seen o/o before, the internet suggests a number of meanings, none of which seem to apply.

That might eventually be a motivator.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In context, I'd guess "out of," but that's ridiculous.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I finally read "Why Is It So Hard to Get a Great Bagel in California?" It turned out to be a nice piece about food and place and possibly not a bad subject for a musical.

In talking about the larger debasement of the bagel, the writer contacted Einstein Bagels corporate:

A very nice team of marketing and R. & D. people told me that the company, which uses steam ovens for its Noah’s bagels instead of boiling and baking separately, prides itself on its innovative flavors, like Cheddar jalapeño, as well as what it calls its "traditional" ones, like . . . blueberry.

One of the musical numbers should be EAT A MUFFIN, WHITEY.

Perhaps a recurring leitmotif.

Mac can just spray himself down with Axe, he'll be fine.

Good rule.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

So I'm out of cash for the week. Been a long time since that happened. It was the perfect storm of debits. First I decided to go on and pay the total of my property taxes instead of breaking up the payment; that seemed like a good idea at the time. Then someone charged me about $200 more for a repair than the estimate was, without warning me. And THEN three charges that I expected to be around $100 each hit my back account at over $400 each, and that wiped me out. I called the company and talked to a very nice very apologetic CSR, who straightened out the mess and assured me the overage will be refunded to me, but that will take "a couple days". In the meantime, I have zero monies. Luckily the pantry's stocked with food and cat food. I should get busy listing more things on eBay, I guess.
