Good morning everyone. Can't figure out if it is going to rain here or not. That will be the factor in what I decide to do today. So far, it's been to just sit here in front of my window "surfing" until I make a move.
Today's Question(s):
What is your favorite fall activity? There is a great Apple festival in Biglerville, PA (near Gettysburg) that I like to go to. However, it's a 7 hour drive now from NC. It's hard to talk DW into that trip each year!
If you were able to change one law which would you change? We may as well get rid of some DMV laws because they don't seem to be followed or enforced (blinkers, compete stops at stop signs and "right on red" corners, and failure to yield). Yeah, the regulars on QOTD know those are my "hot buttons".
Bill paying.... do you pay them online or the old fashion way? Have you ever incurred a late fee? I pay all but two online each month. The other two want you to either log TMI on their website or convert you to paperless billing. I won't do either.
Extra Credit Question:
Today I just want to_finish whatever it is I start! __
Do you know anybody that is very negative or constantly complaining all the time? If yes how do you deal with them? I remove myself from interactions with people like this. Life's too short! We all have our crosses to bear... I ain't carrying two of them!
Bonus Question:
Last place you left and said "wow this place has excellent customer service" ? Fantasyland! It seems places don't care about customer service OR they over-do it and make you are turned off by the phoney-ness.
Just for Fun:
Do you blow, natural or towel dry your hair ? Towel dry. It's almost dried naturally by the time I walk from the shower to the mirror!
Stranger facts:
You grow by about 8mm (O.3in) every night when you are asleep, but shrink to your former height the following day. Now that's interesting!
250 people have fallen off the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Maybe the should've stood uphill...
315 entries in Webster's 1996 Dictionary were misspelled. Doh!!!
A Boeing 747 airliner holds 57,285 gallons of fuel! That's a lot when you think about it!
A violin contains about 70 separate pieces of wood! It's amazing how some of the old classic instruments have stayed together over the course of the years.
Well, have a great weekend everyone! I think it's time to get off my butt and start getting busy (at something!)...

My favorite fall activity; football.
I'd change the speed limit on the freeway I use to get to work every morning (I-264) from 55 to 70 mph since people drive that fast anyway.
I pay all my bills online and have never been late accidentially.
Today I just want to work on my report and play some Wii but can't since I have to work and volunteer at a block party.
I know someone who complains all the time. I try to encourage him, if it don't work I leave it alone since that spirit will infect me if I get too close.
The last place that I really noted for their customer service was would be Indi's restaurant on S 3rd in Louisville, I've gotten the best customer service there as opposed to the other locations.
I natural dry my hair, not that there is much to dry.
What is your favorite fall activity? When I'm finally all hunkered down for winter and can start hibernating.
If you were able to change one law which would you change? Oh dear, can I just WRITE a new law repealing all the old ones???

Stranger facts:
You grow by about 8mm (O.3in) every night when you are asleep, but shrink to your former height the following day. How odd. I guess that's from "spreading out" as you lie horizontally and then everything settles back into place when you are upright.
250 people have fallen off the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Splat.
315 entries in Webster's 1996 Dictionary were misspelled. Why didn't they use SpellCheck?
A Boeing 747 airliner holds 57,285 gallons of fuel! Not surprising given the weight of flying that behemoth.
A violin contains about 70 separate pieces of wood! No wonder they are so hard to make.
Enjoy Thanks, Karla, and everyone have a great weekend!!!
What is your favorite fall activity? Just being able to go outside without having heatstroke. I like the cool mornings and evenings to go outside with my dog. Drinking hot chocolate. Hearing the crunch of the leaves under my feet. Getting to make and eat better food.
If you were able to change one law which would you change? Any ignorant breed legislation/law.
Bill paying.... do you pay them online or the old fashion way? Have you ever incurred a late fee? Almost all online. I only pay one thing with mail now. Always on time.
