There’s always been a valid reason why one needed “only” a 3.0 to make the Dean’s List (the good one) at the NATS.
My fridge isn’t smart enough to be a security risk. I have my suspicions about the coffee maker though…
I have baking powder that’s “double-acting”. That’s why I never read my bbq sauce recipe aloud.
Did you see the episode of “Silicon Valley” where refrigerators downloaded software that melded their computing power into a network via an oversight, and the protagonists start up company was able to tap that computing power?

Gar-en-teed to cure this fellow’s prob! LOL! Thank you Mr. Nugent!
I’m not clicking any links from you since the last once I clicked tried to install a cookie from a porn site and the company IT police wanted to know what the hell I was trying to do messing up my immaculate computer system.
I have a deep dislike for Cat Starch Fever ever since my annoying neighbor would play his custom made (using different radio recordings) 120 min cassette tape of JUST THAT SONG that continuously flipped the to the next side so it would play until if father got home from work and told him to turn it off.
Sis, you’ve known me long enough to know I’d never knowingly link anything like that. What i was linking for you was the three rescue workers that are driving all the women crazy!! Hotties that you’d like…
I already hang out with fire fighters a couple times a month as part of my job. Waaay ahead of you on this one. 😉
That repetitve playing sounds like torture.
Just like the song.
It’s a musical rendering of torturing a cat.

The Star Spangled Banner was written September 14, 1814. The author, Francis Scott Key, was not a nice man.
