The mail woman just walked through an active parade to deliver mail on the other side of the street and I cannot imagine wanting to cut money from that service.

I like Mardi Gras because it makes me feel like a kid again while I feel 90 years old because every joint and muscle aches.

A math problem: There are 6 things each kid needs to do between finishing breakfast and leaving the house for school. If I have to tell each kid what to do 4 times before they do each thing then how tired am I after getting 4 kids out the door?
