    Can of corn in baseball: Baseball Slang. a fly ball that is so easy to catch that the fielder need only stand under the falling ball and let it drop into their glove: That's the third straight can of corn off a Yankee bat tonight, and the Toronto outfield is not complaining.

    It's all good, Tranq, I'll take it as a compliment. It's really goofy, and AI would have done a much better job with the grammar, reducing the redundancies, bombasticness and awkwardnesses, rendering it (IMO) far less humorous. I had fun with it.

    Actually, yes. The area is wooded with old-growth trees, both conifers and oaks and other deciduous trees, which the goats appear to leave alone. He seems to rotate them on various areas of his properties. The goats have cleared, and continue to keep clear, all the grassy and weedy undergrowth...

    Goats also miltiply like ... rabbits. We have a neighbor down the road who got about 20 goats about 6 years back for vegetation control. They get out on the road sometimes. After a bit there were about 40 goats. Then there were 80. Now I'd guess there are probably well over 120 ...

    They do be thorough! Mine do not actually eat the roots. They just scratch, waller, and dustbathe in and around them until the poor plants surrender and give up the ghost.

    You go outside and wave or whistle and a taxi will pull over and pick you up. It's not a mindset, it's a lifestyle. Due to necessity.

    Not many options if you don't have a vehicle. Space in NYC is at a premium. There are no parking spaces, or no dependable ones, and space in a parking garage is very expensive. Do you know what people pay for living space, and how long they wait to get it? That's why people don't have cars.

    Thanks. It had happened once before and yeah, she may ultimately need surgery for it. She's only 22. She's not looking forward to it but her insurance is only good till she's 25, so ....

    She'd hyperextended a knee and no, I wasn't about to move her on my own. I can barely walk myself without help. They put her on a board.

    We live 5 minutes from the nearest ambulance station. But last time we needed one, that bus was out on a cardiac call. So they ordered one from the other side of the county. Unfortunately, the map app got them hopelessly lost. My SIL is on the ambu board, called them and got them unlost. It took...

    I thought mine was old, built in the 60's. By people who were not builders. 🙄 Eva, if you can go back and edit this ... be sure there is an empty space before the "http" and these will show up as clickable links. The period before the http makes them not clickable.

    Well... back in "the day," there was no Amazon. And in many areas of rural America, long ago, there were no department stores, either. Or cars. And it took a whole day to travel 20 miles by horse, cart, wagon, or mule. Not everybody had other forms of transportation. So paper catalogs were very...

    Today my GirlChild asked me who said, "Give me liberty or give me death!" Patrick Henry of course. Some things I do remember, but no, I was not there when he said it.
