I was reminded of the concept of isolated groups of people developing their own dialect, and eventually, if isolated long enough, their own language. Consider the family of Cherry and Steeple Bumpkiss sealed off in the high forest of Townforgot – dial phone, no TV or electronis of any description, poor reception on their AM radio, and an old truck that fetches provisions from the nearest farmer once a month.
Steeple: “Pharrgh. Real? We gotsta set table for your ‘rents this Sundie?”
Cherry: “It’s been a space.”
Steeple: “Can push it back for my look-out. Your birth-pa’s out. She carting that side bar of her’n?”
Cherry: “Side’s moving to the center now-abouts.”
St: “She still grazin’ on greens?”
Ch: “I’m all over the soy loaf. You can chow on what tickles you.”
St: “Last inning she was rockin’ low riders and them tops with the monkey’s on.”
Ch: “Cain’t say about her rags. She was always first in line for fab.”
St: “Swaggin’ to fabbin’. What a little glitzbar.”
Ch: “Fuffnier ev’y year.”
St: “Imma gassin’ rotcheer.”

Folks, if you’re like me, you’re probably not getting near as many bites as you used to – remember the good old days, when all you had to do was pretty much just walk down the street and …
Not sure if it’s age, or maybe just a generation thing, but I have noticed that while the frequency is diminishing – so is the quality. It reminds me of ginger ale – remember when we were kids how good ginger ale used to taste, but now…geez, I just don’t know anymore.
And it’s sort of like UFOs. If they really do exist, they’re doing a pretty good job of staying hidden, except maybe at night. Which makes me wonder…if they really don’t want us to see ‘em…then how come they fly around in the dark…with their freakin’ lights on???
But I digress…
While browsing the app store recently, I came upon an unusual program – it’s called Mr. BITE.
Intrigued, I downloaded it…and am I ever glad I did!
Now, with Mr. BITE, the bites come as often as I want. I can even set a schedule – up to thirty days in advance! Or, I set it to random and wait to be surprised. I can even sync it with my alarm clock for that extra “zing” in the morning!
Mr. BITE is a little pricey as apps go ($2.79), but well worth it.
The whole family just loves it – in fact Tuesday night at our house is now “Mr. BITE NITE”!
So perk up those long, hot, summer weekends (and holidays, too!) and remember:
“Don’t get uptight…
Make it right, with Mr. BITE!”

Being unemployed has many disadvantages, not the least of which is feeling that I don't accomplish anything on any given day. Enter Lazymeter.
Although the things on my list are often silly (empty dehumidifier), being able to say "I accomplished six things today" is decidedly uplifting.

A few years ago, I took an extended time off (over a year) and found myself very bored…fairly quickly and investigated volunteer opportunities. I ended up with the Red Cross as a volunteer CPR Instructor – turned out to be a lot of fun and was certainly very useful.
Also – many years ago I was a “mystery shopper” as a way to pick up some extra money. There’s a lot more to it than one might think and the pay was pretty good. You got to pick your assignments and had to spend some time learning about the company and the procedures they wanted you to follow.
It was far more than going to a Burger King and noting whether the cashier had a name tag or not.
And if the “mystery shopping” company couldn’t meet its quota/deadline they would panic and offer double money to pick up assignments.
You have to be careful of scams now, though.
Another part-time job was working for inventory companies. I did everything from Home Depot to Victoria’s Secret – usually after hours. There’s nothing quite like counting women’s underwear at 3 am for a guy…
