I, however, appreciate it. Thank you. :-)

Scott, I am so sorry for your loss of Katie. She was such a sweetheart and the time I got to spend with her was enjoyable. May she find an everlasting glass of cold water with condensation. Please share my condolences with Kelly as well.

Scott Hardie | November 14, 2023
Thank you very much, Matthew! I will. She was indeed.

WLW: The First 30

Since we're still putting off NutriSystem until our bank accounts recover from the move, Kelly and I have been focusing on exercise instead. So far it's mostly a lap around the apartment complex a few nights a week, saying hi to underdressed strangers walking their dogs. Last weekend we tried the mall. Go »

Scott's Pet Peeve #2519

Why do some microwaves have a convenient quick-start option if you press 1 or 2 or 3, so that they instantly start cooking with 1:00 or 2:00 or 3:00 on the clock... but DON'T have this same functionality programmed into 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, which do nothing when pressed alone?
