Apple is a totalitarian company. Everything has to be their way or no way, but I have to give them props for introducing, or at least popularizing quite a few things that we take for granted today. Like the GUI (Graphical User Interface). Apple didn't invent it ZEROX did, but Apple made it work and ...

Propane is getting expensive here too. Last year we filled our tank for $1.25/gallon, this year I had it topped off at $2.20/gallon. Still cheaper than electric heat, but not as cheap as it used to be.

I don't think those hairdo's were from Brylcreem. I remember my sisters hairdos and they used Aqua net hair spray for that.

If you have someone in your life that you love, make sure you ...
