I love them on summer road trips because they don't melt all over creation. I don't do chocolate in the summertime.
They're also great on the golf course for the same reason. Non-sticky hands are a positive in golf. Maybe I should quit eating them on the golf course. Then I'd have an excuse for my crappy game.

I hate computer problems. Laptop has been running like crazy the last couple of days. I mean hard drive spinning away and eating up memory. Tried a system restore point just ****ed it up more. Now Symantec and Defender are both disabled. Ran Norton Power Eraser and it did nada. Malwarebytes, zippo. Time for computer shop drop off. Maybe their solution will be to just accept the microsoft Windows 10 upgrade. Things went south after last windows update.
Saved all of my files and bookmarks....just in case.
Take its shoes away.
I am headed out to drop off the confuser at Micro Center. Never have done this before. Always had the time to either fix or reinstall operating systems myself. Just do not have time right now. Feel like I should be turning in my man-geek card but between all of the family stuff and funeral planning etc I just don't want to deal with it. Still feel lame about hiring help though.
You are no lesser of a man-geek to me just because your time is being taken up with more important family matters.

Aaaannddd....I do really mean that as a compliment.
Kind of like Sara said...there's a difference between "I can do it, but I choose to pay someone else to do it because it's lower on my priority list" and "I don't know how to do it so I must pay someone to do it for me". Your man-geek card is still in tact. I was the same way with finishing our basement. I *could* have done it, but I chose that I'd spend the money so I could spend the time with my family.

Heineken also owns Deperados and supposedly tried to market it in selected areas of the US (Southeast). Their Facebook page was a ridiculous mess of fake posts and their website was even worse. Any time anyone asked where they could buy it they would get some generic response about how they'll be bringing the party real soon. They were even giving that response after the decision was made to give up on the US market.
That's my take on changing my oil. I know how to change my oil perfectly fine. But I make enough money (like it actually costs a ton of money to have it done) and my time is more valuable to me, so I take it somewhere during work time and pull my laptop up and work when I need to have it done.
If you read through the posts on the FB page for Strongbow, the "OMG I'M SO EXCITED" posts are so dang blatant. Then you look at the comments on the industry article I linked, and there is only ONE person I could see that was happy about the change.
