Reminds me of the chap who was having a talk with his boss. It went like this....
Employee: "What would you say if I said you were an idiot"

Boss "I'd sack you!"

Employee: "What would you say if I only thought you were an idiot"

Boss "Nothing...I can't do anything about what people think about me"

Employee "In that case...I think you are an idiot".

My mom taught me how she hung laundry on the line. She said like items hang with like items, and so on and so forth, and each clothespin did double duty. Who knew there was a learning curve?🤷

I used to hang upside down from our T shaped clothesline poles. I once fell head first onto the metal bucket I'd usd to get up high enough to grab the pole...I've never been the same since.🤕🤪😬

The Legend that is "bad dog"....or should that be Leg End (the position he used to sink his teeth)
Thankfully Bad Dog is behind bars.
This bad boy has no interest in legs...he sinks his pointed fangs into any arse he can grab.😁

Join the Camino cleanup. Logroño to Burgos May 2025 & Astorga to OCebreiro in June
I did learn that if you open an old fashioned tin beer can with a sharp pointed device you better make two holes at or quickly cover the first with a finger while making a second and open both holes at the same time.

That's what I did on my first trip to Australia where I opened the cans from the bottom with the awl on my knife. I'd post the empty cans home to a pal who collected beer cans. I'd ship a dozen or two at a time.

No innocents were sprayed.

Rick, your mention of collecting beer cans for a friend "back in the day" prompted me to text my brother and ask him to take a photo of his collection in his "man cave". Many of his are from the 1970's before he married.

He’s truly working on 99 bottles of beer in the wall.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Did he reimburse you the postage on two dozen cans at a time? There were no Amazon boxes to recycle so easily "back in the day", and from Aussie to the US...cha-ching!$$$
I owed him more.

I've got about three times that number of empties in the front yard rolling into the street. The neighbors are rather upset with me that they haven't been invited over yet.

When your beer cans are spilling over the recycle bin and rolling into the street on "bin day", then its time to consider reducing your consumption.🤪
I'm sure Peg would be pleased.
