Got four new tires and a haircut on the same day.
Life’s little pleasures … 🙂
Hopefully not at the same place.
You’re saying they “scalped” you for a set of tires… Right?
In other words, your tires were bald, but you still aren’t.
Well, fifth California season is underway, . . . . . Wildfires.

All good links. Here’s another great website run by firefighters where you can download an app to your phone or computer and it will keep track of your location and notify you of any fires in your area and whether or not evacuation is necessary. It’s free as well.

Stay safe, y’all!
Can you imagine winning the Fantasy 5 California Lottery jackpot only to find out you have to share it with a total of 27 winners? A mere $2854 each….. and the winning numbers?

I wonder if any of them were “quick picks”?
Nah!

Kinda rare to ever see a series like that. I remember not that long ago that the top prize was a lot larger certainly than around $77K this one was. I hope the wins helped those folks out because things are difficult in this screwed up Kalifornia economy.
I’ve been messing around with the free version of Chat GPT, asking it to identify obscure movie quotes, and it’s amazingly fast. But not always 100% correct. So beware if you embark on that crucially important journey.
I also prompted it to come up with some “rejected children’s book titles”. It did not disappoint:
“The Little Engine That Couldn’t, So It Just Drank”
“Are You My Dad Or Just A Guy Called Greg?”
“If You Give A Mouse A Knife”
I chuckled.
Yum! Chic-fil- A …. their food is to die for!

I have to advise you…. after the initial shooting there’s about 12 minutes of the police begging the driver to get out of the car & surrender…. then things go wild after that, so fast forward if you are impatient. Crazy guy really wanted that chicken sandwich!
Well…. I thought maybe it was just my imagination or perhaps because I’ve grown older it just feels harder to do, but I checked & found it is true… the manufacturers are all making bottle caps smaller or simply more difficult to open!
I practically need pliers to unscrew a water bottle & I need to use a rag to open a beer twist off bottle cap to avoid cutting my hand.
