The orange juice at HyVee cost $6.78. I wanted to unload some change so I gave the cashier $20.78. The cashier typed in $20.87 and proceed to give me $14.10 back. I was surprised to get a dime, and a feet away I paused to decide what I should do. It was late, and there was one other customer. I didn't think it was worth anybody's trouble. But then I didn't like the poor guy's cash register to be off by a dime. So I turned around and returned it.

Mrs Browncoat and I watched most of Blast from the Past (1999) last night, starring Brenden Frasier and Alicia Silverstone, with Malcolm Reynolds in a small role as Alicia's ex-boyfriend. When it was over, I said, "I'm a little disappointed Mal didn't make one shout out to Firefly."

She didn't fall for it. Smart woman I married.

I don't know who "Karen" is, but a couple of gals in the elevator are not happy with her.

I have two boxes.

One is >50lbs.
The other is less than 10lbs.

On the first I have written "Heavy".
On the second I have written "My brother".

I hope the moving guys figure it out so that they don't hurt their backs.

After the market closed, ratings agency Standard & Poor's downgraded the company's credit rating from the lowest investment grade of "BBB-" to a junk-grade "BB+."
Junk grade should be like a C- or a D. BB+ sounds like you just missed the honor roll.
