This to balance out my bitchy little Things That Annoy You post from yesterday: http://bellgab.com/index.php/topic,2547.msg335535.html#msg335535

Today in Hipsterville, I was driving (in Eyenoeyeno's darling lil vintage pickup truck) past McDonald's when I saw two twenty-something young ladies run out into the parking lot to give an old homeless dude some food. They ran back inside before the surprised feller could even thank them. Hey, maybe the world is getting better.

Haha.  probably the same bum that's been lurking for weeks.  Feed them and they will come back.
don't you have some saying about teaching a morman something about a horse or something?

Yeah, always, I mean never teach a mormon to fish when you could be bareback riding with sister wives. That old gem?

Feeding fast food to a starving guy whose gastrointestinal system is not used to McDonalds could cause harm or even death. He'll definitely have the shits or in BellGab parlance, the ass fountain.

Well played twenty something young ladies. Well played.

Unbagging a bottle of freshly decanted west coast big leaf maple syrup, only available one day a year at the Big Leaf Maple Syrup Festival.  Also, finally getting a filter so I can finish making my own.

That's some powerfully good stuff, because I smelled its succulent, seductive aroma from several thousand miles away at least six seconds before you posted about it.  That''s spooky, because there are no coincidences.

I was wondering how you did that!  It must be the wireless internet gnoory is always talking about.  ;)

Also on an unrelated note, I had to resize my picture and repost while experiencing technical difficulties with my own wireless internet.

I think that's my super power, which is disappointing because I'd rather be able to fly. 

Were the pancakes extra happy this morning with the primo mojo maple syrup?

It could be a useful super power... I guess.  To be honest I'm not sure I would want to be able to pinpoint smells thousands of miles away.

I'm sad to report there have been no happy pancakes.  I want to use the maple ambrosia in my quest to make happy salsas from 100 percent locally sourced ingredients (local generally means my yard) which I could sell at farmer's markets.  Someday when I crack the bottle, however, there shall be a happy pancake sometime, somewhere.

It only works with primo maple syrup.  Being able to fly would be much better.

Maple salsa sounds intriguing.  Happy Nachos!

I'm sorry, did you say something? All I heard was " bare. ..riding....sisters..."

Just gave my lawn its first mow of the year.  That brings me joy.  Or annoys me.  One of those two.  Or perhaps the other.


Discovering that my favorite soundscape creator - Thomas Köner - just recently released an electronic/ambient/experimental studio album on vinyl & CD called Tiento De Las Nieves.

"The piano shape and its inner structure is a bastion of the evil." - Thomas Köner, from an interview in Rock-A-Rolla Magazine in November 2014.

ah-hah! I knew it! Give'em hell, Thomas!

Weezer - Undone -- The Sweater Song

Love this song, but even more I love the video...  The dogs at the end do it every time...

I thought the grocery store nearest me had discontinued carrying imported Coca Cola from Mexico in glass bottles.  I've believed this for several months. Today, I noticed the bottles in the impulse purchase fridges in the checkout lanes. I usually ignore all the crap at checkout, but it was an especially slow moving line.

Prior, they were on shelves at room temperature at the far far far back of the store until they disappeared. This is an upgrade.

Discovering the product was still for sale called for a celebration by buying said product, bringing it home, popping it in the freezer until it formed mini glaciers, then drinking it like the drug it is.

you must of been in the line with me. every grocery store line with me in it is exceptionally slow. whether a slow checker, the moron who waits till everything is rung up before digging for the checkbook, the moron who *has to use exact change* digging around in pockets/purse for 10 minutes, decides to not have 1 or more items or a price check/override requiring a manager to come over and attend to it.
this is my lot in life, any line i get into becomes very slow. and if i change to another line the 1st line suddenly becomes quick and the line im in becomes slow.

wait, this belongs in the annoyances thread, not the "makes me happy" thread ...

How you eat your pancakes reflects your personality! See the bottom of the page for yours.
I'm tender and affectionate.  :)
