What’s with the spike in text scammers?

1. Hi, how are you doing? (Philippines #)
2. Do you want to go golfing tomorrow? (Canadian #)
3. We were going to discuss your capital investment in (company I do contract work for). (US #)
4. You owe a toll (US #)

Sorry if someone really wanted to golf. Lol

Tamarack Taproom just texted me that I joined the waitlist and they’ll text me when my table is ready…. Or I can reply 3 to cancel… hmmm

I did the right thing and called the taproom and said you entered the wrong number as I’m in Florida. I fought the temptation to cancel…

Spent yesterday at the Crowdiest Place on Earth.

Btw - an 85 minute wait for the Tron light cycle was worth it, but it also may have been worth the $20 skip the line once option if we’d known about it.

Jeopardy just had a question (answer) that could be what’s wrong in the U.S.

Last president to sport a mustache.
(Question (answer) omitted for spoiler reasons)

It’s been that long since a ‘stache ruled the White House?!?!

Craftsy is free right now on Xfinity so I’ve decided to learn how to do witchcraft… aka Continental knitting. As an English knitter, this is very foreign. I also watched a class on Portuguese knitting, but I’m thinking Continental will be my preferred once I get some practice in. Picking > Throwing.

If we weren’t binge watching Elementary, I’d have no idea what this meant - but we JUST watched the episode that had a mole hunt using this!

Watching a Jeopardy rerun and it reminded me of an old meme type thing - ruin a band by changing a letter… and I don’t recall this one ever being one I saw listed.

Qdoba > Chipotle/Moe’s/3PBC (though 3PBC does make the largest burrito).
Pulled pork 3 cheese queso nachos with chips on the side. Guac and sour cream are always free.

If you see this, post an album cover with a car (truck, motorcycle, tractor) on it.

My favorite record of all the special orders I placed a Disc Jockey at Maplewood Mall. The majority of the rest were regular 45s. I preferred vinyl over cassettes in high school.

Unpopular opinion incoming…
I saw Romulus on Hulu this past Sunday and thought - I never watched Aliens 2 & 3 and only half paid attention to Alien (first watch during COVID), so why not watch 1 a night this week! Turkey Day causes a delay, so we just finished Covenant.
So far - Aliens^3 is my fav.

My arm is going to hurt tomorrow after cranking out these two from a new pattern I found.

Caved and made my first purchase from the popular cheap “T” company since they had the knitting machine I wanted for half the price. Machine is great… the cool cat tarot cards they enticed me with not so much… lol. They look bigger in the picture then actual size.
