While tattoos have become more acceptable over the years, I can’t not secretly judge people that have hand or above the neck line tattoos. Of course the placement, style, and number all play a part in my judgement :) Tattoos on any other body parts don’t trigger me though.

These laws differ widely from state to state and there are different requirements for minors and adults.

One of my most “this isn’t what it looks like” moments? Picture this: it’s dark, I’m in the campus parking lot, and I’m standing next to my truck with a crowbar, trying to break off a locking gas cap. Earlier that day, I’d discovered the lock was stuck and just spun uselessly when I tried to get gas.

For context, I’d bought the locking cap because of a recent string of gas thefts on campus (including from my own truck), so yeah—ironic. Just as I’m mid-pry, campus security pulled up. It looked exactly as bad as you’d imagine. They actually didn’t give me any trouble at all. They asked what I was doing and then went on their way. I suspect it was because I didn’t have any type of fuel container or siphoning gear, I also hadn’t tried to hide what I was doing.

So a little anticlimactic as these types of stories go, but I was relieved when they drove off and the mangled gas cap finally popped off.

I don’t know about it resonating nor was it a single episode, but I still remember the Luke and Laura arc on General Hospital. I don’t know why it intrigued me at the time but I would always stop and watch when they were on the screen.

We have one boy and it didn’t really change our life that much. Some time running him to activities and overseeing homework and such, but our hobbies and friends didn’t change.

Not everyone who has kids ends up feeling this way though :(

Milk Shakes at just about any fast food restaurants. The machines always seem to be down! Pulled up to an Arby’s a few months back to order a Jamoca shake and they said their machine was down. I asked them if I had pulled into the McDonald’s drive through by mistake. We all had a big laugh… but that was months ago and they have now put a sticker on the menu that says their shakes are not currently available :(

Went to a Baskin Robins to order a Chocolate Milk shake and they were out of Chocolate ice cream… on multiple occasions. At least they don’t have a machine to break down!

I have a list of of interesting characters, but sticking to pure “fantasy or folklore” I will go with Aasimar.

Yes, WHY do I write all my SQL statements In all CAPS and why isn’t there a better SQL editor, and why hasn’t SQL evolved more than it has?
