5am Rant
Why is there ALWAYS the one idiot in the security line that acts like he’s never left the farm and right when he gets to the xray machine suddenly realizes that he still has on a jacket, a hat, hard-to-take-off lace up boots, a metal studded belt, a watch, bracelets, and rings, and has pockets full of change.

WatchMy new shower head and extender arm. The previous shower head came out of the wall and went down where this arm goes up.
That spot on the wall is about where my forehead is so I always had to crouch down to get my head wet. The shower caddy used to always fall forward and frequently would hit me in the face as I was crouched under the shower head with my eyes closed rinsing shampoo out of my...
