Small things 18 Mar

• California: I wish the universe would erase our drought, uggh! Universe: As you wish. California: OMG! Not all in the same season!
• Recently I asked a server at one of our local restaurants what it’s like to work there. He said, “It pays the bills.” So he must be getting a really good wage because man oh man, have you seen the cost of bills lately?
• A property that used to be used as a halfway house in our neighbourhood was advertised as follows by the realtor: “Here's a unique opportunity. Prime location & offers great 'cash flow' with long term tenants willing to stay. 2581 sq ft main structure with a 2 storey carriage house on the garage offering 4 tenanted units! The building is split into a 3 bed + den / 1 bath main floor unit, plus a 2 bedroom, 1 bath suite on the 2nd level and an illegal basement suite with 1 bed + den / 1 bath. The illegal 2 storey garage suite has another 1 bed + 1 bath. It needs some TLC but no doubt is an amazing revenue property. This one piece of real estate generates over $4000 per month in rents! A savvy 'house hacker' can move into one unit & have the others cover the expenses.” For what it’s worth, it did sell.
• If you get a bigger bed, you have more bed room but less bedroom.
• Whose idea was it to let the King’s horses try to put Humpty together again?
• I almost made the mistake of buying ‘organic’ spice. You get half the amount for a higher price and I bet dollars to donuts that shit came from the same country/plants/factory as the regular stuff.
• The coolest thing about horses is that they are basically grass powered engines. Grass goes in, fast comes out. Most things that produce fast (like cheetahs and cars) need much more heavily processed grass, like horses or oil. Yet here horses are, producing the fast with only the grass.
