I find people like this really annoying. It would never happen to me. I pay too much attention. :,(

I think it's pretty cool that 3000 years later this vase is still serving a utilitarian purpose. Image making something with your hands that someone, somewhere thousands of miles away would be still be using in the year 5000 AD.

In-town cats can be a problem. I live on a farm, so cats are pretty important to me in the barn and in the other out-buildings.

We’ve had a horrible winter so far, so my cats that are usually outside more than in are now in more than out. And they’re quite crabby, LOL!

Imagine the tens of millions of AOL CDs tossed into landfills being used as coasters on the counter tops of our descendants.

And they'll wonder who this "Burger King" was and what land he ruled over.

If I found something that looked like junk,.... it would be.

I’m never that lucky.

Cats don’t like water and they don’t know what sprinklers are.

At least there isn’t someone around to say ‘they don’t make em’ like that anymore.’.

Cool. I keep hoping I’ll find an oil well in my yard/garden.
