Things I Wonder: Is it Really Thursday, Already?
Why does my HP Mini laptop have a power chord with three prongs and the cord is thicker and more industrial looking than most of the cords on my power tools?
How did it get to be Thursday, already. I had many goals for this week, and wondering about how passage of time works wasn’t one of those goals.
What do you think would be a good name for my salsa and/or salsa company? Right now, the only thing I can come up with is Donnie Jalapeno Super Salsa.
Why do people say they “hate the Woodward Dream Cruise?” Especially Detroiters? They site traffic, exhaust fumes, and too many people all jamming around an 11-mile stretch of road and making things crazy for 4 or 5 days. I think even the haters, deep down, love the Dream Cruise just like I do. It’s such a celebration of Detroit and our nickname, “The Motor City.” Way back when, we proud Detroiters had the hardest working people building cars for the world. And we had the smartest marketers telling the world, oh, you need cars. In fact, they said, you need two cars. Further, do you know your car defines you and tells the world who you are? Yes …think about it. Somehow in a world without highways, expressways, and sprawling suburbs, auto and ad executives convinced people life would be better with a car and a car payment, and the added expense of gas and maintenance, not to mention adding one more thing to a long list of things that could kill you.
Once we wanted cars. Now we NEED cars.
So, that’s just something that makes me scratch my head. People hate the Dream Cruise. They mock it. They act as if it so negatively impacts their life, it should be cancelled.
Do these haters realize you can drive less than a 1/2-mile east or west of Woodward and barely know it’s even happening?
Relax.
Why can’t people relax? Don’t watch the news channels …nobody ever relaxes there.
What were those firecracker/explosion noises that woke me up at 1:30am, last nigh?
Who is reading this blog entry?
And, really …I need ideas for names for my salsa. Help.
Do you get rubber in all four gears?
