Faux Life: Things That Happen On TV But Not In Reality
riley702 replied to Kromm's topic in Everything Else TV
Although they can be deeper, most graves now are 4-5 ft deep, so that the top of the burial vault is approximately 18-24 inches beneath the surface of the ground once covered. This makes for tidy, flat, mowing. When I was planning mine, I found out it's legal in most graveyards to come along later and bury an urn of ashes on top, from say a pet. That deeper depth to 6 feet was a result of the Black Death and a real fear of animals being be determined to dig them up. -
Pet Peeves: Aka Things That Make You Go "Gah!"
riley702 replied to Betweenyouandme's topic in Everything Else
Was going through through horrible bouts of this and the doc gave me a small dose of Potassium Chloride (20 mEq, twice daily) and it helped. Then, some really rough antibiotics ripped my stomach back up to shreds, so I started taking a half dose of the Potassium and BINGO! All better. I had unknowingly been dehydrating myself and making it worse. The doc was impressed I figured out and not taken too much, -

I was trying to figure out your username and ended up amusing myself instead. Never mind, I was thinking "Stendec" and was surprised you knew about something that long ago! Yes, I'm gonna make you all google it. If you want. :) -

I loved my Bloomfield jack! Hate those stupid scissors jacks, and currently have bottle jacks (or hydraulic jacks). -

Huggins and Ribsy have a home and will be leaving in a week or so. And so do the Kinks! All 3 Kinks are going together, as are Ribsy and Huggins! Yay!

The kinks lost their "cowbells" today and are doing fine. Aura got more vaccines and bit the tech hard. Naughty girl - her nickname on her FB page got changed from Auradorable to Auracuda! Seriously, she's a stinker. Still over a month to go before they can fix her cleft palate.

When I was a new driver, I straddled what looked like a pile of rags because I was afraid it contained a pop bottle or something, and as I drove over, ears popped up. It was two calico kittens, one long-haired and one short-haired. So hungry one started chewing on my finger. I stopped at a convenience store and bought cat food and took them home. I named them Frick and Frack.

Way back in high school, the son of a state trooper killed his best friend by shooting him in the face with a shotgun, over a girl (so he told his friends at school), but his dad pushed it as an accident and got him off without even recklessness charges. How could a teenage kid of a policeman not know not to "play" with a gun? He moved away pretty quickly as school was out for the summer as soon as it was wrapped up.
