Omigoodness, do I love my own brilliance when I find a good bargain and make it an even better one by my own cleverness.
Found a big sponge in the reduced rack for $.20. Took it home and cut it into three hand-sized pieces. Three sponges for less than $.07 apiece! No more cussing because I can't find a new sponge and the ones at the sink are all shot, and for pennies! I made my own day--well, my own afternoon--well, my own hour...
As the saying goes, "ANYONE can pay retail!"
Yeah, I'm--all together now--easily amused!

If you enjoyed your afternoon, that's wonderful! You obviously put a lot of thought into this sponge thing, perhaps far too much thought. Now, Diane is going to hold you down while I load the sedative into this syringe. You just think happy thoughts about all the money you saved by dividing that $0.20 sponge into three sponges, and before you know it you'll go back to sleep. Keep thinking, "There's no place like home. There's no place like home. There's no...."

Wed, December 5, 2007 - 7:47 PM...and when you wake up later on, there'll be no more talk about sponges and certainly no desires to find the perfect nickel-sponge. That's right, snuggle into the pillow there. Nite-nite. -

Thu, December 20, 2007 - 5:47 PMThank you for being so clever as to found this Tribe. Did you notice that none of the rest of us thought of it, Oh, Great Leader?
Seriously, it's a good group. Thanks.
