Stop relying on remotely controlled freezer. If it doesn’t have a separate alarm and a locally controlled override then its shouldn’t be allowed to be sold.

My brother in law died recently. He is the only member of my family I gave a shit about. He worked for a few years a place where they made light poles. I visited him once it was a toxic nightmare. He left that job to work for Terminix. He worked there for nearly a decade. He died last year of cancer after a years long battle at 60.
I worked in my twenties at chemical plants power boilers and nuke plants. I didn’t quit even after I noticed how all these people who were twenty to thirty years older than me were dying and how they were dying. I quit when three other men in my age group two of them very healthy and one who was a alcoholic died within months of being doused with chemicals when they cut into a void while wrecking out a storage tank at a 3M plant I had worked at.
Now thirty years later all of the friends I knew who were boilermakers during that time are gone including one who now that I look back on it was a father figure to me.

It took me quite a while to climb out of that pit. Even now decades later I’m realizing how much they did to me. They didn’t know it and didn’t care but they shortened my life with their neglect. I had never looked up rheumatic fever. When I was fourteen I was third in free style swimming in my region. I got sick with a sore throat and ear ache. My parents waited three days to take me to the doctor. The 80 year doctor just said it was a minor ‘red throat’ I went back home and two days later my I started bleeding from my ears. Three days after that they finally took me back to the doctor. I had a high fever and was really out of it. I was out of it for a few days and in the hospitals for fourteen days.
After that I started getting slower in swimming. I couldn’t now keep up with the times I had when I was younger. I was getting tired all the time and was having pain in my chest. My mother insisted I was too old for that and fool that I was believed her. In truth I had heart problems related to that fever. They had the money and I had insurance but they decided that their money was more important and the only reason why they went to the doctor when they did was because someone came by the house and saw the bloody paper towel next to my ear and freaked out. I didn’t learn that for thirty years just like I didn’t learn they called SCAN which was child services at the time. Of course they talked them down and I was in my late forties before I found out.
I had a heart attack when I was in my mid thirties. Now in my mid fifties I’m looking at severe problem with my heart valves. If I lose my job I’m dead in the Land of the Fee. I have tried to raise my children better but I still have difficult emotional problems and I can tell you right now I don’t hate much but even though they are dead I will always hate them.

You see women in all the shows and movies wearing high healed footwear. The other night while rewatching the bad batch I noticed one of the female characters with high heels boots. The one place where you can just draw them to the desired height and they put a pirate in high heels.

My thoughts on that was they got paid the average pay for the state the live in. Down here in the south they would have to get food stamps.

Real whiskey on the rocks has a huge number of flavors depending on the age and manufacturer. Jack Daniels is the bottom of the rung.

I have never went into a starbucks but there are those little shops in other stores and that coffee smells bad. Like a desert truck stop where the coffee machine is stained and the pots have a thick black buildup of tar.
