Why Lumber Is Ridiculously Expensive Right Now. And this is the year my deck decided to fall apart.

Colgate's New High-Tech Nonstick Toothpaste Tubes. I wasn't aware that getting the last bit of toothpaste out of a tube was a a real problem since we went from metal to plastic tubes, but if you are really concerned about wasted toothpaste, notice that Colgate's advertising gif shows a person squeezing out about four times the amount of paste you need to brush your teeth.

I enjoyed the Culture Shock item, the Sign War and Beau's story. And I just want to take a minute to say how much I like the photoshopped images celebrating Miss Cellania that you use for these posts! I wish I had your skills at doing this!
ReplyDeleteDebra, I have no Photoshop skills. Many of these were done with generators over the years, and the best ones are from my brother, who is a graphic artist.
ReplyDeleteWell, whoever made them, I enjoy them!

ReplyDeleteTheir suggestion of using pallet wood is terrible. Many pallets are treated with pesticides and are unsuitable for either burning or building.
I agree, pallet wood is crap, that's why it's used on pallets which are a throw away item for the most part. Composite is the way to go with wood prices so high. It will save you a fortune in maintenance costs plus tons of yearly upkeep down the road and should last 25 or more years.
