       @The_Whore_of_Blahbylon Saturday I swapped double cheddar for extra sharp and a lady goes, "Oh,double cheddaris what I want!! oh, no, extra sharp!!! At that price, grabbing two!"   And we ended up practically breaking into I LOVE CHEESES" songs.

       @stux Seriously. It's a mathematical reality that if we have a million we can sustain that level. A THOUSAND millions ?!?!?    like, give away 999 million and you are still a millionaire.

       @stux I've done that :) One drizzly cold winter day I bumped by a whole manhole cover in the bike lane, Across the street from the manhole. I stopped, as did a pickup driver who'd also clocked it.  He "walked" it further out of the way but they weigh a lot.  In the meantime a car almost landed in the manhole.    Another guy and his wife appeared. I called 'dispatch' (police non emergency) & told 'em, turned my glowing helmet on and grabbed a string of christmas lights from the bike, and the three of us stood around the opened manhole cover and I got to use the sarcastic voice I TRY NOT TO USE at work:  "AROUND. AROUND.  YOU NEED TO DRIVE AROUND!!!"   To which other guy said, "a Mom voice?"      No, middle school teacher :P    "We were too!!!"  Called dispatch again 'cause clearly I hadn't conveyed. "we're still standing out in the middle of Race Street diverting traffic around the hole because it's a serious hazard and it will make the cars break." And inside a minute there were blue and red lights, the officer mused for a minute and by the time I was rolling, the officer had rolled the cover back on....      .... Friend on Facebook said she was the driver that had almost gone into it and  regretted not stopping but -- where to park??      And then I blogged and got some fascinating suggestions for tags, because the title was "manholes."

       @fribbledom that's true of so many forms of storytelling.  Maybe storytelling is trying to make it make sense.
