Ugh. No more Subway sandwiches for me. I used to like them. There was a time when I probably had a Subway sandwich at least once per week. In the past two days I've tried their sandwiches again. They're terrible ... dry bread and flavorless sandwiches as a whole. How can sweet onion chicken teriyaki sandwiches be flavorless? It's inexplicable.

A baby was found at a church manger scene. According to the news story, the church is Holy Child Jesus of the Diocese of Brooklyn. So for real, there is a manger scene at this parish, before Thanksgiving, and before the first Sunday of Advent?

Several years ago, I purchased a new water hose with brass connectors. I was quite disappointed when I connected it to my hose bib in the backyard and it sprayed and leaked all over the place when I turned on the water. I just thought something was wrong with it. I had an old hose and it too leaked when I hooked it up. I figured it was just old.

I like the Hunt's Gel Snacks. I like the smooth, firm texture and wonderful flavor. But they give me a tummy ache. It took a while before I figured it out. I would snack on them in the late afternoon. Then by dinner time they would ruin my dinner experience. I don't know what's in it that's not agreeing with me. I just have to ban it from my eating repertoire. Jell-O is fine with me.

just a public service announcement:
We have stainless steel dog bowls for our dogs. I don't know what grade of stainless steel. We use them for feeding. Good bowls; they should last forever. I have discovered that powder Comet cleanser works great for cleaning the bowls when dish detergent just isn't enough to cut through the slobber.

I like the simplistic design and the use of stainless steel. It looks good as far as simple scooters go. It appears to be well-sized for adults. I think that it's quite suitable for going through indoor conventions, though there isn't any place for collecting stuff. You know, the freebies you get at conventions.

I will have to wait for time to test this product. I typically will not purchase a first-generation of any technology. I applaud those who do, because their money is what funds product improvements.

I just watched the movie "Frozen" last week or so. My favorite character is Olaf. I think I'm in love. I'll have to keep an eye out for a REALLY GOOD action figure of this little guy. A quick browse through Amazon tells me that this could be difficult to find.

One of my co-workers has a cardboard deer head trophy, medium and small sizes. It is very good looking.
So I found it online. There are other trophy head designs available such as moose, rhino, giraffe, elephant, and more; some in different colors. The store also has these handsome rhinos:

Have you heard of the 808 CANZ portable speaker? It can be had for around $30. Check it out at Amazon. I'm not saying it's the best thing around, just that for the price, this little baby is satisfactory for toting around. You might find it at your local Sam's Club, Walmart, or Office Depot.

There is a Catholic church on the left, then shortly after, the Planned Parenthood on the right, and during these several days: a bit further and there's a billboard on the left with the message "He is Risen!" advertising a Christian radio station.
