I have neither option option. All bananas are delivered to my landlocked town via the same truck.

Bananas are probably a bad example because they are so perishable. They have to be transported in a very controlled environment. Theres no way youre getting bananas from Guatamala to Canada via sailboat and still having them be saleable.

But it doesnt work. Grocery stores raise their prices to cover the carbon tax on deliveries, and the consumers pay more. Its not like we can choose to buy only bananas that were delivered by an electric truck.

The biggest polluters just pass the cost onto their customers by raising prices.

This is a great way to motivate the developement of hovercars and boards.

I was a dj for about 20 years.

I can palm a tennis ball, roll it down my arm, bump launch it with my bicep, and catch it. Freaks people out who are standing close as the balls launches right at them, but I've always caught it. Discovered later I could do it with anything that rolls like a microphone.

What are some things youve done that have not caught on? What are you into currently?

We've been brainwashed by advertising to think that the paste and mouthwash are what matter. They help, yes, but brushing is what matters most. The toothbrush is not just an applicator.

That said, I personally find Sensodyne to work better than other brand's product for sensitive teeth.

It can, yes, but even a cheap toothbrush used properly will do the job. No need to buy brand name when the store brand will do.

 

Fortunately the gentleman at the front desk allowed me to switch rooms. For $200 a night, I'd like to not hit my head on the wall when standing up.

Toothbrush. Anything you'll use comfortably will do the job.

I have never broken a 10 mm wrench, but I have lost a few. So I bought a ten pack on Amazon.

Got a used HP Probook laptop. Just needs a new drive. HP specs say it has an m.2 2280 slot. So that's what I ordered. Guess I needed to look closer.

edit: Thanks for all the info, guys. Different types of keys are explained here. Gonna have to look for a sketchy no-name brand.

 

Raining like crazy here in Grande Prairie. I'm waiting for the flood pictures to hit facebook.

How's your day going?

 

I have imposter syndrome, both at work and in my relationship.

 

I changed out the burner tubes in the propane grill. The first set of burners I got did not have adjustable air inlets. Ordered some different ones and the difference is surprising.

 

Or any pet food I guess.

 

Are there other types of fruits that could go well with tomatoes in a salad?
