SuperG1955 suggested that I invest in some rubber snakes. They will be arriving later today.

Thursday drunk-do. That’s aggressive!

snakes look safe (to humans). Red looks like it is only touching black. And they are rubber...

Happy SATurday! I'm watching some early morning football from Stamford Bridge. We're going to check out a new (to us) state park this afternoon and camping there tonight.

Edit: apparently I wasn't paying too much attention to what I'm watching. The match is in Leeds.

A not-so-rare Delta question: if I use my SkyMiles Amex card to book a ticket on Delta for someone else, will they get the free checked bag benefit on their ticket?

I don’t think so (I presume you are NOT traveling too - just booking the ticket for them). Pretty sure they’ll have to pay bag fees unless you’re also traveling with them. The card is linked to the cardholders’ Skymiles account which then applies the benefits when that person is traveling.

It's PI Day.

In fact, as I post this, if we hadn't switched from Standard to Daylight Savings Time, it would currently be 1:59 pm on 3/14.

I'm surprised that our forum geeks haven't posted yet about pi day this year. Hopefully the dogs are enjoying warm sunshine while their humans are enjoying some craft beer.....and similarly for cat owners, with presumably the cats happy at home.

I think we got it out of our systems a while back. Look upthread.

Happy post pie day. I had an apple fritter as big as a small pie, if that counts.

forgot to post this on Saturday from JP Trodden distillery (the little plastic cup is a taste of their bourbon-barrel-aged maple syrup — yum!)


doggo was there too; didn’t sample anything, but behaved as if he had shortly after we got home
