Tap dancing soda cans

Remember when you were a kid and had an empty soda can? What would you do with it? Recycling wasn't an issue really yet (if you're my age at least) so you could just toss the can away. But you didn't. No, if you were like me, often (not always) you'd lay the can down on it's side and stop your heel into the can so if stuck to the bottom of your foot and formed to it very securely. Hell, you could do your own Bojangles impersonation with the right Pepsi cans!

Every so often I like to remind my readers to visit this site. It's pretty intriguing and I hope you find it interesting.

Though I've tried to refrain from commenting on some close friend's lives, I have to add a note about poor Ricardo. My business partner and buddy has had a tough week or so. Last week, a house he's owns in the suburbs and has been trying to sell, failed some obscure local village ordinance. Unfortunately, the guy doing the inspection wasn't the final authority on the issue; he was just the assistant and needed to have his work reviewed by his boss. Sadly for Ricardo, his boss was on vacation, so Ricardo's closing is now in jeopardy. Ugh. Dealing with a city is bad enough, but when they have information or anything you need, it's twice as bad since these people LIVE to hold their little bit of authority over any and all comers.

In addition to the real estate issue, Ricardo's cell phone died. It just wouldn't hold a charge anymore, so he is phone-less. Fortunately though, his phone is under warranty. On top of that, his dishwasher stopped working. Not bad enough of a weekend for you? His home PC crashed too!! The hard drive just died and of course, just as he was making a backup to an external hard drive! No freakin' joke! You can't make this shit up. He was in the process of making an external backup when the PC just fried. Ugh. Man, I sooo feel for you. Hang in there buddy.
