Kitchen cellophane. Why would everyone not just use Press n Seal? Cellophane doesn't work.

It's not as versatile and more expensive.  It's not good for wrapping food directly, only as a covering.  Saran Wrap gives me the best seal on for wrapping burritos to go in the freezer.  I usually end up using foil sheets anyways though because they are easier when I'm rolling and wrapping myself.

Good for you!  Bravo!  If I could do that, I would probably add ten years to my life!

My lice are just itching to change.

Haha, sorry, had to do it.

Hey, don't knock the little things grumpy old people have to deal with.  A sore knee, back or foot when you're 35 is no big deal.  At 70, it can  make or break your day.  

(Not me though.  Hack or pack.  I'm hacking, every day.)

I never learned proper typing (home keys, etc.). I still hunt and peck a bit, but I haven't been fired for taking too long to type yet.

The fucking machine works when you press the correct buttons; I don't think an entire elective class that teaches this "skill" is necessary.

Honestly maybe the best class I took in High School ( took it in either 92 or 93 ), stuck with me my whole life. Made typing papers in class so easy and I cannot imaging having to look at a keyboard to type out anything.

I envy that!  The only way I was able to pass typing class in high school was to look at a couple of sentences and then type as fast as I could while looking at the keyboard.  I still look at the key board.  Here, I will attempt to type a few sentences without looking:

Not looking:

I esd treslly jappu to teieve the new Dinotrau Junotr album in the mail tofay.  Si fat, it sojhnds great!

Looking:

I was really happy to receive the new Dinosaur Jr album in the mail today.  So far, it sounds great!

We did it on typewriters and it was so boring. Like using the finger keys typing dad 50 times than sad for 50 times , start with finger keys and then branch out from there. Always with 45 min exercise of not looking down and just typing simply words.

Again I hated it at the time , in college when I did not have to look down while typing something out and I could see others struggling I was so glad I took it.

Not making fun of those that cannot type on finger keys but just seems difficult.

Good for you for sticking with it!  I often wished I had but I get by with my sort of hybrid typing style. 

I recently discovered there's a word for the type of typing people do on Smartphones called, simply enough, thumbing.   Is that what Vedder is doing to get back to heaven?

Paying bills on-line sure helps that way.  I still get a lot of unnecessary and unwanted junk mail though.  It's almost impossible to stop that.

The other thing that would help would be to go to hemp paper.  We're still behind on that one because too many areas still have issues with pot.  The whole thing would be solved if the feds made pot legal.  Ending prohibition is overdue!
