Truly, I used to hate being so tall. But the other day at @Walmart in Gun Barrel City near my house, not one, but TWO random shoppers asked me to reach something for them. (I don’t work at Walmart.) If I can help one person, my day is made! ☀️ That’s what we’re on Earth for.

@edgaralandough I’ve read many of these… Is this the order you suggest they go in? 😂 I would say probably! Maybe the first book would get people in the habit ….of reading more books! 😂

@ThrillaRilla369 Raccoon chili or fried chicken

Real mashed potatoes with butter

And banana pudding

People ask me all the time what we Rotarians do, and I jokingly say that “we rotate.” Somebody the other day asked me if it was like the Elks Club, or a Moose Lodge, and if we had a swimming pool. 🤣

But in all seriousness, Rotarians do great volunteer work, and if you’re looking for something to do to volunteer in your spare time, check into your local club. They are worldwide.

We are deeply saddened by the impact of the recent earthquakes in Venezuela.

@RichOToole I think the only restaurant in Italy, Texas is at the truckstop …. 😂

People are still buying homes just like this in Mesquite Texas, a suburb of Dallas. A cookie cutter 984 ft.² three bedroom one bath home, built on a shifting dry creek bed in the 1950s, and they’re paying $200,000 -$225,000 for them today. In sketchy neighborhoods. Twenty years ago they were about $30,000 — needing foundation work, and 70 years ago they were about $5,000 new.

@ValaAfshar Here in the United States, we call that a “marching band.” 😂 Almost every high school and college has a marching band that does formations like this and even more complex, while playing musical instruments.

@JayRock_QueenCi It probably quit running after the 7000 original miles 😆

We had one

@texasrunnerDFW @eezallgood And not only that, but purchasing it means a big property tax bill, and homeowners insurance. Renting can sometimes be MUCH smarter.

My teenage nephews always joke about how fat @MyDogChocklit is. And then they say he’s stupid, but only because they’re self-conscious about how stupid their own dog is! So I just sent them this photo. Thank you @grok ! (It’s a photo of Chocolate wearing a graduation cap from MIT, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology 😂 and holding a diploma.)

@dr_ericberg Wheat!

@mcuban And homeowners insurance

@RobertKennedyJc Yep! I filter it out with a British Berkefeld system at my house. Fluoride, and chlorine, are terrible.

One day, my teenage nephew was at my house and said he needed a job. I pointed at this huge magnolia tree and said “look…75 magnolia leaves go for about $10 at pet stores.” Pick em up, bag ‘em, sell them on EBay for less. There is great abundance in this world for those looking for it.

@johnrich Way to hustle, John! What a great story. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.

@xai I just made up this slogan:

Artificial Intelligence: Because Common Sense Is Not All that Common Anymore.

@N42PA Where could one find a group?
