Got my '95 Volvo back from the body shop after those punks damaged the driver's door and took out my passenger window. They did an excellent job, the car looks great.

When I first read that I understood it as they being the punks and had to sit here a few seconds thinking about that. I smart.

I have mentioned that occasionally I get collections calls for the person who had my cell number before me. She is still committing check fraud and is still giving that number. As recently as March of this year.

Well, Got another call today (always to voicemail, always). But this call named another name along with the one I already knew. Called back, schmoozed the collector and got some more info on the other name.

Half an hour later, I have found her through this second person. Everything. Address, where she works, pictures from her recent wedding and her new name, everything. Because this second person tags everything on facebook, including checking in on facebook mobile from a party at the scammer's house. I called back and gave the information to the collection agency.

Hopefully now my phone will NEVER ring again.

Must be awesome to have that type of power and research. Hopefully that stops the calls.

It's not all that complicated, really. I took a name and went through social media. Some people make it too easy.

And I didn't use my own "power". I could have rolled the squad cars :D

Ahhh, I thought you were using your own ''power'' from your job. Guess that's where I thought the awesomeness was coming from. lol

There was a wingnut stuck on a piece of my instrument, and I needed to loosen it to finish a repair I was doing, so I sprayed it with industrial strength lubricant. It worked.

But it smelled like spearmint. Why did it smell like spearmint?

Not sure, but I would think spearmint is good

It was a single wingnut, correct? If it was a double wingnut, it would have smelled like doublemint.

If it was a triple wingnut it'd smell like Three Musketeers

And I see myself out

'Frozen' Set to Become Disney on Ice Show

Frozen has already made over $1.2 billion worldwide and is now set to hit the road in September as a Disney on Ice show. The animated blockbuster, which helped the Walt Disney Co. beat expectations with second quarter earnings, will cash in even further on its popularity by becoming a touring ice-skating show, according to the New York Times. An announcement released early Tuesday confirmed the fall show, with tickets on sale that day.

I got up feeling so down
I got off being sold out
I've kept the movie rolling
But the story's getting old now
I just looked in the mirror
Things aren't looking so good
I'm looking California
And feeling Minnesota
So now you know, who gets mystified
Show me the power child
I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
It gives me the butterflies
Gives me away
Till I'm up on my feet again
I'm feeling outshined
Someone let the dogs out
They'll show you where the truth is
The grass is always greener
Where the dogs are shitting
I'm feeling that I'm sober
Even though I'm drinking
I can't get any lower
Still I feel I'm sinking
So now you know who gets mystified
Show me the power child
I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
It gives me the butterflies
Gives me away
Till I'm up on my feet again
I'm feeling outshined
