Remember the days of RSVP's, returning a phone call after they left a message, picking up the phone to hear the beep of a vm left? Remember when the cell phone would let you know that someone was on the phone when you called them........ so you could leave a message... and they would call you back. Remember the basic etiquette of a response? I have learned that people have become such slackers in the department of phone/text/email etiquette. Not only do people not leave messages...... but they use the "missed call" feature of their phone as proof enough they called and therefore deserve a return call. " Hey, you called me?"... My rule is, no message....... no return call. If it isn't important enough to leave a brief message... it must not have been important to call me. Let's not start talking about FACETIME.... UGH!

Nothing makes you enemy #1 faster than making people go AROUND you! Definitely DO NOT do this during the peak shopping season........ your day will go from Yule Tide Fun to BAH HUMBUG super fast! Now, the only place that there is NEVER any traffic control or natural flow..... is the amusement parks.......... my hee...
My husband asked me... If chickens are birds, why don't they fly? I countered that question with ... If chickens have breasts why don't they have nipples?..... So, being the inquisitive one... I had to find out why? Seems like a logical question to me......... So, in my research I found out that chickens of ancient times did indeed have nipples. They also produced milk to feed their young. Because chickens had a "double duty" of having eggs and then nursing the young the shells were thinner, smaller and were striped. This was not satisfactory to the humans who had already developed a like for the food product that eggs provided them. Sometime in 2500 BC a mysterious and deadly disease from Asia wiped out the entire egg laying population. Except for some domesticated game hens, who seemed to have a natural immunity to the mysterious disease. This loss of egg laying fowl created a supply and demand issue... and created businesses that had thes...
