" A beautiful thing,

though simple in its immediate presence,

always gives us a sense of

depth below depth,

almost an innocent wild vertigo

as one falls through its levels. "

Laundry Tip

O' the Day !

" Here's an energy-saving laundry tip for you: Placing a dry towel in the clothes dryer with a load of wet laundry reduces drying time, cutting down on energy usage and utility bills. The idea is that by adding a dry and absorbent material, 
some of the moisture from the wet fabrics is wicked away by the dry towel. This reduces the moisture inside the dryer, allowing each item to dry out more quickly. Experiment at home "

Pristine-in-Box Truth

A  L  O  H  A !

" If a problem has no solution,

 it may not be a problem, 

but a fact - 

not to be solved,

 but to be coped with

 over time. "

Shimon Peres

"Procrastination isn't the problem,

 it's the solution. 

So procrastinate now,

 don't put it off."

"Pristine in box"

Holy Grail to collectors.

Remember boxes?

Everything: trinkets,

shirts, appliances,

transistor radios,

they all came in

cardboard.

Inside,

 your treasure

was cradled in

tissue paper,

foreign news print. . .

Remember Excelsior?

You can see your desire

entombed in  thick, 

impregnable plastic.

"Consumers suffer thousands of injuries per year,

 such as cut fingers and sprained wrists,

 from tools used to open packages 

and from the packaging itself. "

Wikipedia

I own a razor knife

and know how to use it

without amputating

any flute-playing,

bum-wiping

fingers.

PLEASE cut away from yourself!

And use scissors

or sheers

on tricky corners.

So what is your 

strategy

for liberating

fortressed, yet 

needful items?

Dynamite?

Nostalgia

is nostros.

Algos means 'suffering'

So nostalgia is the 

suffering caused

by an unappeased

yearning

to return. "

Pet Floorgy

A  L  O  H  A !

“Genius

 is the capacity 

for seeing relationships 

where lesser men 

see none.”

 William James

“ It is paradoxical 

that many educators and parents

 still differentiate between 

a time for learning and a time for play 

without seeing the 

vital connection

 between them. ”

 Leo F. Buscaglia

I see a baboon

 chasing a butterfly

Kitty likes it too!

Today's word is:  "F L O O R G Y"

When you and your pet(s)

 get wild playing together on the carpet,

THAT is a Floorgy.

Derivation:   Combines 'Floor'  &   'Orgy'
