Sunny and low 100s in the NV desert today.

Today's Question(s):

lol Last thing you read or heard that had you saying, "Seriously" or "you have to be kidding me" ?

MGM is considering imploding their $250 million hotel/condo building -- The Harmon -- after never completing it.

Do you own a Bicycle ? No -- sold the only one I had when I moved to NV.

Yup I would qualify for the "Pulitzer Prize" when it comes to
1. My Christmas newsletter.
2. My C-D posts.

What was the last reminder note you left for yourself ? Need to get my car oil changed.

Sorry to hear about your shoulder surgery KwaK. And glad to hear that electronic banking might work -- I wondered about that. Best of luck on the 25th!

Happy Wednesday everyone.

Yaaaaay!!! Wednesday and almost Friday

Greetings to allyall and much love

U know so much of life is politics on one level or the other. The only that as has me saying "r u serious" is politics or politicians or the news which is mostly political...

I don't have a bicycle. I gave all of them away except the one that was stolen. Now I just have a stationary bike.

I don't do reminder notes, but I like the idea... Just for fun I am all done

Love, Peace and a double dose of Happiness
