On the matter of Shiny Objects:

[richard1rst]

Over the past few weeks everybody was moaning and groaning over the requirement for free returns.

Then the sales tax decision comes down and now that is front and center and returns seems to have dropped off the radar.

And in due course another shiny object will come along and we will be off on a different tangent.

Cause let’s face it - there ain’t nothing any of us can do about any of it (well, except take our ball and go home).

In the classic words of Bette Davis “Buckle your seat belts - it’s going to be a bumpy ride”.

BTW I just noticed: I used to be a "Trailblazer", now I'm a "Guide" - is that a step up or a step down?

It's kind of akin to trying to parlay your WOW status as a Druid in real life = )

@castlemagicmemories  Great post on the Ranks ... the best line in that is one of the quotes you added:

" ... While our formula may be a tightly kept secret, ..."

@duggmills I'll trade you my badges for one of your sales. That way I'll double my sales for June and you'll get another cup of coffee in the Pilot's Lounge. Deal?

There is a Board regular, jen_proudleowife, formerly missjen316, who is a Superstar (seriously~although I have called her a Board legend).  That is above Rockstar.

You already are!  Wait, what?  

Maybe you just would like a Good Humor?  

Ice cream is good.

On the matter of shiny...

Oh, look, a bunny!

[lookng2015]

Strangely, we DO have bunnies here lately LOL

And no, we're not rural. First I saw a black one. Big, well fed in good health. Thought maybe a pet that escaped. Then a few days later I spotted him/her with a friend, same size but black & white spotted. Okay 2 pets who have escaped.

This last week we've spotted baby size bunnies up and down the street at various times. I had 2 of them under my car the other morning. Knowing bunnies, I'm sure there'll be more.

[duggmills]

Roger that. And it's been only three sales in June, none in May.

2 non-neutered Escaped (or dumped) Bunnies = Wholelotta Baby Bunnies

Hey look ... an iguana! These guys are everywhere in the Keys, the originals were most likely "escaped" pets. This fellow and about 10 of his buddies were our dinner companions at one of the restaurants last week 🙂

Squirrel!

[berserkerplanet]

>>Squirrel!

Uh, that's a funny looking squirrel.

You didn't happen to grow up near 3 Mile Island or Love Canal did you?

[the*dog*ate*my*tablecloth]

Kinda looks like my nephew's bearded dragon.
