I don’t even recall seeing it as a kid in the 80s, but I found it once I had kids and it’s absolutely our favorite to watch as a family. In fact, now that the kids are teenagers, this is probably the only one that will draw them out of their rooms to watch together still.
One of my favorite purchases in terms of usefulness, cost, and fun (relative) was these frigging ceiling fan pull chains. I saw them on some “things you didn’t know you needed” list or something. But for less than $10, they have made my life infinitely easier and they do give me a little joy every time I pull on them.
I was going to reply to OP with “They aren’t cockroaches, they’re palmetto bugs.”
Like, I absolutely get that these things exist and will be a part of life in Florida. But when we’re staying in your fancy hotel and complain about the bugs scurrying away from the light in the bathroom, you have to do a little better than argue semantics with me.
Browsing a bookstore will always beat out a website. Favorite books or authors will always get a physical purchase. Used books are cheap and awesome. And sometimes lengthy books are easier for me to get through if they’re physical.
But I love the convenience of my Kindle. I have a ton of books and can add to that collection any time I want. I can adjust text size, font, etc. Dictionary lookup. Syncs progress with the phone app so I can literally pick up and read anywhere.
Is the parka just to keep warm, or specifically to add bulk? Because I think that extra size is what really makes the 3rd on stand out and look more intimidating.
Good photo, and you definitely got the details in the shore.
As a Portland native though, it feels so wrong in B&W. It’s not, obviously, but I’m so used to color photos and seeing it in real life that it’s a bit jarring.
I was SHOCKED this morning when I saw a new Black Pumas that wasn’t a re-release of the debut. I actually looked up if it was real. But it is, and it’s really good.
