Not only is it “Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen” now, but they dropped the apostrophe in Popeye’s.
In a time when people are adding extraneous apostrophes before every “s” in sight, these people are taking illiteracy in a different direction by omitting the apostrophe where every first-grader knows it belongs.
Maybe somebody here can figure this out…
My wife phoned me yesterday; and instead of a default ring, I heard… well, the wrong kind of Ring. I heard “Ride of the Valkyries.”
Which would be fine, except I never set that as the ring tone for calls from my wife’s phone. And I don’t have that music in my phone. Anywhere.
Nonetheless… Ride of the Valkyries
The next time she called me, I heard the usual default ring tone — so I have no idea what happened earlier. The most logical hypothesis at this moment is that this wasn’t a ring tone at all: at the very moment she called me, an army of Valkyries just happened to be flying past.
(She later decided, by the way, that she wants that music to be her ring tone on my phone — specifically, the Elmer Fudd cover version)
Or, since you’re on your phone anyway, type “TYTY” into the browser and get the answer in 4.5 seconds.
I usually save this for the hottest day of the summer, which I know today is not: but we’ve got construction going on here that precludes turning on the air conditioning, plus there are machines in the kitchen belching out hot, humid air that’s long since spread to every room in the house. So Holy Hades, Batman, it’s ugly in here. I’d sleep outside if I weren’t worried about getting eaten by a bear.
(of course they’ll be removing the machines tomorrow, just in time for the temperatures to drop 25 to 30 degrees anyway)
IBB, the Seattle real estate agent, has appropriated my Gmail address. Now South Dakota’s Bill Bickel is using my Yahoo mail address.
So I know all about the Dodge van he and his wife Courtney own, paid for by his mother Laurie.
This would make him at least the fifth Bill Bickel to use either my Gmail or Yahoo address. This is getting beyond ridiculous.
B.A.:
Another snail mail contribution boosted the total to $1467. And yet again, I give a huge thank you to the CIDU community.
If anybody else has sent a no-tech contribution, or plans to, or needs specifics on how to, please let me know ASAP. Otherwise, I’ll officially close the book on a very successful Walk.
