That is a good kind of crazy to which we all aspire, Sophia.

Yes to pneumatic tubes!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My grandma routinely made cookies for the staff at their bank branch because my grandpa would drive off with the pneumatic tube t edit cannister all the time. The staff was too nice to tell him he was banned from the drive-through, so they just put up with it, and when he returned the cannister, it often came with cookies, which I think softened their position even more.

It's super easy if you are getting cash. That's very sweet to return it with cookies.

Yeah, when the pneumatic tube cannister cam back with cash or a receipt, Grandpa pulled it in the car to open it and get the contents out, and apparently just tossed the cannister on the car seat next to him.

I want to go home and sleep. My body is being stupid hormonal and I keep crying. And everything is shakey and won't be still.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's been said before that millionaires who don't have these in their homes clearly do not know what to do with their money.

I've been in Harlan Ellison's house, which he had built to his specifications from his Star Trek and Irwin Allen TV money.

It definitely has secret passages and little tiny Alice in Wonderland doors, and an Art Deco diner booth for breakfast etc.
