It's what you do. That's what you moo? It's National Dimples Day. Oh, I have dimples. Where?
No. Those are fake. When you do a weird face to make it you think you have dimples. You don't. You don't.
Okay. National Sugar Cookie Day. Oh, this is in a wrong spot of the year. Why? Sugar cookies are typically associated with Christmas.
I'm not mad about it. I'll still eat a sugar cookie any day of the any month. I I don't like sugar cookies. What? It's too boring.
I don't like the I can taste the flour. It's not good. I don't like sugar cookie. Have you had my sugar cookies? I don't like sugar cookies at all.
Wow. It's not it's not yours. It's not anybody else's. I will take a a lot of different cookies. Yeah.
Oatmeal raisin? Oatmeal raisin's delicious. Something's wrong with your cookie. Sugar cookie is just sugar butter and flour. I don't have time for that.
It's boring. Oh, you're sorely mistaken. But it gets its own day, and it's today. Because sugar cookies are awesome. July 9th.
Is that it? That's it. Wow. I know. Good morning.
There's a man. We'll call him Kelly because that's his name. Makes sense. He noticed that his beloved gnomes went missing from his front yard. I I have gnome troubles.
Mine aren't missing, but mine keep falling down. He that had already lost a canoe from his front yard. So he was like, there's a thief in my neighborhood. This stinks, but I how what am I gonna do? Mhmm.
I don't have a camera. My gnomes are gone forever. I was gonna suggest get a camera, but okay. Okay. So then a couple weeks later, he heard a knock on his back door, and there was an elderly woman there who presented Kelly with a blank envelope that just said, the homeowner.
Inside the envelope was a cutout image of a gnome with the words, the gnome restoration society inscribed on the back of the photo. The woman wouldn't answer any questions, but instructed Kelly to follow her to her vehicle where she opened the back hatch, and all of his gnomes were in the back of her car kidding. Completely repainted and restored. Wow. He said, please tell me who did this.
And she said, they wanna remain anonymous. I'm just the messenger. They are I just agreed to come here and deliver your gnomes. That's all that's all I'm gonna say. That's all I really know, she said.
That's all I know. All of this every single gnome that had gone missing plus 2 extra had been cleaned, painted, and were smiling happily. So they brought him extra gnomes? They did bring him extra gnomes. They also left 1 of his gnomes behind.
And then he says, I wonder if that was because they wanted me to see the difference because the 1 they left behind is weathered and a little bit battered. And Okay. I know. How's that for that little gnome? Yeah.
He's for storage. Guys. Hey. How come everybody looks spiffy, and I'm over here looking like this? Kelly said that he tried to find more information about the gnome restoration society, but they're secret.
Okay. But what about the canoe? Oh, we don't know any. There's no information about the canoe. None.
Why even bring up the canoe? Well, because it was a matter of theft, wasn't it? He had already had some things gone from his yard. Well, I'm glad the gnomes are back. I can't wait for the Canoe Restoration Society to show up with his boat and be like, look at this canoe.
There really are 10 they they took 10 of his gnomes. I wonder how they got him out. Why does he have 10 gnomes? Oh, I have 10. More than that.
He just restored 10 of them. He had 11, but the 1 didn't get restored. Of course, I got 2 extra. Remember? Yes.
Remember that part of the story? Yes. I do. But what about the canoe? I don't know.
Gone forever. No. Canoe restoration society has it. They're gonna show up with a brand new shiny canoe and be like, help us unload it. What's your best Nicholas Cage impression?
Who? What? Where? Where? We're gonna steal the declaration of independence.
High praise. You know, all that. Good job. He's made how many movies do you think he's made? 26.
He's made over 100 movies, but he is coming out and saying that he there's 1 movie he may he's made that he wants you to see more than any other movie. And it's possible that you haven't heard of it. Gone in 60 seconds. No. The Italian Job, was he in that?
I don't know. No. I don't think he was. It is a movie called pig, and it came out in 2021. Okay.
And it's about a former chef who goes looking for the thieves who stole his truffle pig. Okay. It is really good, the critics say. It's earned him some of the best reviews of his career. Nicolas Cage himself says, it's something that I think people can get something out of because tragedy is gonna hit all of us at some point.
It's just a matter of when. And this guy's tragedy is that his prize truffle pig pick is stolen. Went a missin'. And then he says it's a movie that to me is like a folk song. It's very quiet, gentle, which is the polar opposite of people thinking I'm crazy.
Okay. Pig. Pig with Nicolas Cage. Where is it available? No.
No. Pig free streaming. Where to watch? Well, Hulu. Disney plus.
Yeah. Some somewhere there if you have the subscription. Okay. Pig. Pig.
I'm gonna write it down. It says it's a thriller. A thriller? That's what it says. Oh, Nick.
Cage's pig movie. Pig. Alright. I'm writing that down. No.
You don't know? He's got, like, a scraggly beard. In the show? Yeah. How can you tell?
Because I can see screenshots from the movie. Oh, the cover art of the movie, he looks devastated. Is that you you pick up devastation? Yeah. What do you pick up?
I pick up he ate his pig. Oh, no. That's what I think happened. I think in a in a in a weird this is my synopsis. In some weird fit of rage or starvation or something.
He was crazy, and he had memory loss because he was so hungry, and he couldn't afford razors for his face. No. And so he ate his prized pig. No. That's what I think happened.
When his beloved pig is adept ab abducted, a reclusive truffle hunter journeys from his cabin in the Oregon woods to his old haunts in Portland in search of her. Where's my pig? An hour and 32 minutes, which is great. Oh, yeah. Anything longer than that, I'm out.
I appreciate a short film. I do too. Okay. Well, I'm glad you wrote that down. I got it.
Very good. To the list of movies we always go, what are we gonna watch? And then we go through the list and go, not that way. I don't think I'll watch big today. Here's some good news.
This summer, communities around Spirit Lake in Iowa have been affected by heavy rains and flooding. That's not the good news. Right. That's the bad news. Daily routines have been disrupted.
Property's been damaged. There is a softball team in Spirit Lake who wanted to do something to help nearby teams get back to normal so, they could continue to play some softball. Oh. So what they did is they collected sports equipment and donations, and they offered it up to competing teams in a gesture of friendship so that they can continue to play some softball. I love it.
The thoughtfulness and generosity of the players in Spirit Lake. Now the nearby teams are able to resume normal practices while the floodwaters work on receding. The coach of 1 of the nearby teams named Kate, was totally amazed by the efforts, and it was so heartwarming. You just don't have any other words to say for that. It's literally like that's what Northwest Iowa is.
Heartwarming. Oh. 0. Way to go, Northwest Iowa. So heartwarming.
Did your heart feel warm? My heart is warm. Yeah. It's a nice story. That's really nice of that.
I think that's kinda fun. They wanted to keep their sport alive. The the other teams were affected by flooding and rain, and they said, we gotta do something. We're not gonna be able to play softball. It's a good solution.
Get these teams some gear so they can practice, so we can play some games. Yeah. We don't wanna play bad ourselves all the time. We got a season to uphold. Scrimmage isn't doing it for us anymore.
We need we need another team. I like where their head's at. That's pretty great. So well done. Apparently, I goofed up.
Uh-oh. What'd you do? Well, we had that package of hamburger buns left over, and we weren't gonna use them right away. So we took that bag, put it in the freezer bag, and put it in the freezer. Yeah.
Apparently, that's not what you're supposed to do. Are you supposed to do? Well, it says if you're planning on using them, whether it's hamburger buns or hotdog buns within the next, like, day or so, you can go ahead and freeze them. Like, if you're like, oh, we're gonna do something later this next weekend. We'll freeze them in the meantime.
K. And then that'll be fine. They'll they'll be okay. If you are not going to use them immediately, but you want to have them frozen for a while, long term freezer storage, you're supposed to wrap each bun individually Oh, no. In aluminum foil or plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer bag or a container with an airtight lid.
And when you want to use them, you let them defrost in the fridge or out on the kitchen counter. You could microwave them if you need them immediately clearly without the aluminum foil. I did not do that. We didn't do that. So now I'm worried that the buns are gonna go bad.
I feel like they were already gonna be bad. Why? Because have you ever taken buns out of the freezer before? Because this is not the first time we've roast buns before. And you take them out, and they're just not they're just not it.
So you just end up throwing them away. Do you know why? Or they hang out in the freezer until the end of time. Yeah. And then you clean them out and you go, how long have these been in here?
Toss. So I already knew their fate when we said, should we freeze these? I went, I'm just gonna throw these away. And I thought But the reason that we haven't had successful, bun freezing is because we haven't done the individual wrapping method. Apparently, that's the thing to do.
I I can't be bothered. I did like that. I said, I know we have to do more than just put this bag of buns in the freezer. And so we did put them in a gallon bag. No.
That's wrong. I said that. Whatever. It doesn't matter who came up with the idea. The point is They're in a bag inside a bag.
Yes. So we did do at least that. Yeah. We didn't just put it in there all by itself because here's buns too. That's the saddest part.
I will. I guess I just need to cook sooner. K. I need to make I need to make a meal sooner. How many buns were in there?
8? Yes. Oh, no. I know. That means we have to host.
Because I'm not eating 2 burgers. But if you even if you host, the people I can think to host, we're gonna need more than 8 buns, so we'll have to get another package of buns. Perfect. And then we're gonna have them all up. Extra buns after that.
Well, you can individually wrap them and freeze them. Now we know the method will be okay. Everything's gonna be awesome. From here on out, we know the bun freezing tricks. Do we?
Uh-huh. Now we do. We'll forget it by the time we have to freeze them again. What were we supposed to do with these buns? What?
I think they're fine. Just throw them in. Just toss it in there. Fine. Yeah.
No problem. Them in in the bag. We'll throw them away soon anyway. Exactly. Do you wanna talk about this?
I do. Because you're so I do. Excited about it. You're so passionate about it? I wanna talk about it because I think it's really cool, and I'm, pretty proud of what I've built in our house.
And, and so I wanna share that excitement, but I also wanna air a bit of a grievance because I don't think, I don't think you and, our son appreciate it. So as much as I do anyway. But here's what here's what's up. I've, over the years, accumulated some technology in the house, and we've played with it, and we've had a lot of fun being able to say, hey, Google. Play this thing, or hey, Google.
How many teaspoons are in a cup? Or whatever? You've got my Google going crazy. I do? Yes.
That's hilarious. Mine didn't even recognize because I did a silly voice. But yours is over there going like, what? What's up? Picked it up.
Did it tell you how many teaspoons No. I got rid of it. It was it was on the way. It was happening. Alright.
Go. Stop it. So, anyway, so we've got the smart speakers, in multiple rooms throughout the house. As a matter of convenience, it's very nice to be able to just ask the question and get the answer without having to find your phone. Now there are times when you've asked, Google things and she just ignores you.
For a long time, you were convinced that Google didn't like you. Yeah. You were taking it very personal Uh-huh. That she just didn't hear your voice. Like, she was passively listening.
Like, no. Not not giving that answer. No. And I don't like the not gonna answer her. No.
And I don't like the woman in the house, but I like the kids and the man. But I'm gonna ignore the woman. Right. That's not a real thing. It's not it doesn't passively listen.
Like, it's not not today, Chantel. Not today. But what I found out, I've wanted to try this, and I found out that you can, you can play music throughout the whole house, synchronized across all the devices, including the the TVs Oh. And the the speakers and the thing in the kitchen with the screen. And I have an old piece of technology you can't even buy anymore, and it's just an audio version.
So it doesn't have a speaker. You have to, like, plug it into a speaker. But I have, like, a, like, a portable boom box thing that I took out to the backyard and I plugged that into it, and it has to have power. And I was like, what am I gonna do? Well, that boom box has a charging port as well as an aux input, so it it runs itself.
It's the coolest thing ever. So the portable speaker, the entire house, I put 1 in the garage. As you walk around the house when everything's playing, you get your music everywhere. Upstairs, downstairs, backyard, all over the place, and it's the coolest thing. It's like when you go on the, the parade of homes and you see these people that have, like, taken the time to put a receiver that's usually located in the pantry, but it's got speakers throughout their house up and built into the suit.
I did it in a 19 seventies home with my own technology, and I'm pretty excited about it. I'm pretty proud of you. But, you kept changing it and turning it off in certain rooms and adjusting volumes. And then and then Beck, kept turning it off. He would just tell because he was, like, half asleep or whatever, and he'd go, stop.
Stop. And it stopped the whole house. And I'm like, who keeps turning off the music? Walk into a room. It's all quiet again.
I'm like, quit touching it. Well, don't put it in every room. I don't think it needed to be in every single room. We were moving about. We were cleaning.
We were doing all kinds of stuff. In Beck's room. It didn't need to be in. Of all the rooms it needed to be in, loud in that room is probably top priority. My favorite part was you had your playlist.
It was all very, what's the word I wanna say? Fly fishing music. Yeah. For sure. Like, hiking, fly fishing, like, very Yeah.
Campy, folksy, like Right. That's the stuff I listen to. Mellow and Puts me puts me in a relaxed state. And then every so often, like, a real hard rock song would come on. Yeah.
What is this? So, yeah, Google thinks that Beck's voice sounds similar to mine, and so he's messed up my algorithm because he's asked it to play his music. And now his music has leached into my algorithm of playlist, and I'm I don't care for that. Well, you're gonna have to deal with it. I gotta find a way to kick them out.
I don't want these songs. This is crazy music. Mellow. Yeah. And then I'm a I don't I can't deal.
I can't deal with this. You know when you go to Costco and you see human behavior that you are appalled by. It's not just at Costco. Well, okay. Fair enough.
The things people do that annoy you as a shopper and things that if you imagine you work there, customers do, that might just drive you a little bit batty, what would be on that list? I would probably say if somebody picks up strawberries and then goes to the store, and now you're over by the bread, and you're like, oh, I don't really want these strawberries, but I don't wanna take them all the way back. So I'm just gonna leave them here in the bread. Yeah. I don't like that when people do that.
Especially if it's a frozen like a frozen or a refrigerated item. Like, I've seen where an emergency happens and you have to abandon the cart, and you're like, kid had a blowout. Like, you gotta go. Yeah. And you're like, something's not right.
Like, I I really am sorry. Usually, I would like, if that ever happened, I would be the guy who's like, find an employee real quick, and I'd be like, I've got a family thing. I gotta run. I'm sorry. Can you help put all this stuff back Yeah.
Or something. Just so somebody knows. Because if you just see an abandoned cart sitting there defrosting, that's that's not good. Well, somebody asked Costco employees and customers, what are some of the most annoying things that people do at Costco. Yeah.
Rushing through the store to get all your shopping done quickly made the list, and I was surprised by that. Because as a customer, I think, like, okay. Well, that's that's a a thing. But as an employee, maybe they're like, we want you to spend some time in the store. Yeah.
You know why? Shop around. Spend more money. Mhmm. Yeah.
So because the longer you're in there, the more you see and the more you buy. This 1 makes sense everywhere I go. I hate this. People have blocked the aisle with their cart. Yeah.
I know. In in this particular instance, it's wild. They stand around eating the free samples. Hey. I don't stand around and eat my free samples.
I know. Because we keep walking. I get my thing and go. You have to get your sample and then catch up with us. That's fine.
Samples. That's what you do. Samples. It doesn't matter. You run over and get it.
You're like, that's a good 1. That's a nice 1. Yeah. You had salmon the other day? Yeah.
A salmon sample. They did. Yeah. Driving through the crowded parking lot like a lunatic. I can't stand that.
And it happens a lot in a lot of different places. We got we gotta talk about driving because there's some craziness happening in the world right now, in East Idaho. Alright. Placing your membership card on top of the divider that's on the conveyor belt instead of just handing it to the checkout person. I don't put it on the divider.
You put it on. I'll just put it on top of the first item. You did that just recently. Yeah. That's what I thought you were supposed to do.
Check Eric seemed kind of annoyed by that. Well, apparently, they're annoyed by that. He didn't he kinda, like, looked at me, and then I pointed that it was there. Like, he looked at me for the card, and then he I pointed that it was there, and he kinda went Yeah. So, apparently He didn't care for that.
They don't like it when I do that. But I've I'm usually unloading the cart. But why And so I'm trying to Right. I'm trying to speed up the line process so you don't have to wait for me to go, oh, let me get out my wallet and walk over and hand it to you. I I just felt like that was the right thing to do, but, maybe not.
Does it say why they don't like that? It doesn't. And then, last or top the top thing people hate. What is it? And this is from a from a customer point of view.
What is it? When you're waiting to leave with your cart Uh-huh. And you have to do that show me your receipt thing after I just went through a line Uh-huh. And just got this receipt Yep. People who put the receipt away in their pocket or their purse before leaving and then hold up the line trying to find it so that they can then show it to the highlighter person.
Just let us get out without highlighting my receipt. I don't understand the highlighting the the receipt. Either. I don't understand the highlighting of the receipt. I've never understood it.
Agreed. I don't know why you do it. I don't do that. No sense. No.
I literally just talked to an associate less than 30 seconds ago. Yep. They checked out all of my goods. Yep. I didn't steal anything from the checkout to the door.
There's nothing to steal. It's all gone. Take a tire? It's this tire is not on your seat. I know you got me.
When you're riding your bike and you have to cross the street, do you get off of your bike and walk your bike across the street, or do you ride your bike across the street? I'm a ride the bike across the street kinda guy. How dare you? You're not supposed to. All of the rules say that you're supposed to get off your bike and walk your bike across the street.
Yeah. What other rules do you just disregard? Maybe just that? Okay. That was a rule that we learned when we were kids, I feel.
Yeah. But why? Why is that a rule? Okay. Here's why.
Tell me. Because in, in driving, right, when you learn how to drive, right of way on a crosswalk is given to pedestrians, not cyclists. Oh. Cyclists on a roadway act as a vehicle. So if you are riding or if you are dismounting and walking your bike on a crosswalk, you are considered a pedestrian and have the right of way.
Fascinating. I always thought it was because, like, maybe you were more inclined to fall off or have a crash on the crosswalk, well, if you were riding it, whereas if you're walking your bike across the crosswalk, that's a little bit safer. Yeah. I I imagine there's a little bit more than just this, but this particular thing is that if somebody hits you when you're walking your bicycle Uh-huh. You you may have the legal right of way.
Whereas if you are on the cycle and you get hit, it could be your fault because you're technically a vehicle. How about that, Josh? That's the only thing I can like, that's the legal thing. You should probably walk your bike across the street from now on. I don't often ride my bike No.
Like that. But I have noticed that when you do ride your bike, you just ride across the street. Yeah. And I have always been a walk your bike across the street kind of person unless I'm with you, and then I go, okay. Yeah.
I guess we're riding. But I think there's also a lot of misconception about, cyclists being similar to vehicles and sharing the road. I think there's there's a big problem with that, I would say, locally where people in vehicles feel like, no. I'm in a vehicle. Get out of my way.
Whether you're walking or riding a bike or pushing a stroller. It doesn't matter. I think that people don't understand that the crosswalk pedestrians get to go first, and you have to wait in your car. Bad day for you. You'll be fine.
It's 30 seconds. Yeah. So I think it's more of that. This is 2 driving things so far today. What was the other day?
It was earlier. But we need we need to discuss the terrible driving because it's bad. I just wanted to bring this bike thing up because I saw a woman yesterday walking her bike across the street, and I said, when was the last time I've done that? It's been a really long time because when I'm with you, you just ride across. And I'm not gonna be the 1 person that's like, I'm gonna get off and walk my about to take my time.
That's the other thing is I feel like it takes so long to walk across the street. Have the right of way and can take as much time as it takes to get across the street. How about that? I mean, be courteous. Don't lollygag, But you have the right of way at the crosswalk if you are walking your bike.
So take your time. Also, get off your bike and walk it. I guess so. Yeah. I guess if you're riding in that kind of a situation, yeah, it's probably safer.
It's safer. I would say. Unless you are going to act as a vehicle, in which case you are sharing the lane and you're not supposed to be on the sidewalk. Exactly. You're not supposed to be in that crosswalk anyway.
You would be in the road Right. Acting as a vehicle. Correct. If you're sidewalk riding, walk your bike. That's the difference.
There you go. And now you know. I'm watching a period piece movie, set in the Regency area area. Era? Era.
Uh-huh. And anytime they have a party or a ball, they announce their company. Am I wanna know when and why we got out of this habit? Just give me an example. Like, you walk into a party And somebody, the servant or the butler says, presenting Oh.
Jack and Megan from Elm Street. Okay. And then everyone comes to greet you, and you go greet your host, and then everyone knows that Jack and Megan have arrived. Alright. I don't know that I've been to any kind of party where that would need to be a thing.
That's what I'm saying. I like it as a way of inch reduction, but if you arrive after everybody, you're not gonna know who's there. Oh, fair point. So you're gonna wanna show up early. You are gonna wanna show up early because you're gonna wanna know who is the people.
That's right. But then the people, who's ever they are, aren't gonna know you. But you'll know them. That's quite a conundrum. I suppose then you could go, oh, Elm Street.
I know I know where that is. I should go talk to them. You could walk out and back in again if if you were Is that how it works? If you arrived before everyone? I don't know if that's how it works.
You could. No. I know you could, but I don't think anyone did that ever. I don't think they were like, I wanna be introduced again. Yeah.
We gotta go back out. Sneak out. No 1 will notice. The same the same guy, he's the crier, Presenting again. Just keep walking around the circle.
Why did we go away from it? Probably because it takes too much time. I also think it was just mostly for high society members. Mhmm. And I'm What are you saying?
I'm not a high society member, but I'm gonna be. Maybe they still do it in high society. Possibly. Let's bring it to low society. Low society.
Middle society. Hello? You walk in to get, like, your food. Presenting. I'm just here to order a sandwich.
We have discovered a new show that we love, and it's called the 7 little Johnstons. Alright. Let me tell you about the 7 little Johnstons. Okay. Here's what here's what I know.
This show started in 2015. Yeah. We're late today. It has 14 seasons, and we just started watching the first season of the show. And I just realized that, in 2015 that's 9 years ago.
Yeah. And so, as we're starting to to learn about this family, Their youngest kids are 9, which means that today, they're 18, the youngest kids. Oh, no. So I know. Right?
So I'm trying to not look up any spoilers and not, like, find out any information because I just wanna go along for the ride with this family. Yeah. This is a family of, they have how many kids? They have 5 kids. 5 kids.
There's 7 biological. 7 little Johnston's. Yeah. Yeah. 2 biological children and then And then they've adopted 3 Right.
Children. They all have achondroplasia dwarfism. Correct. Which is which is an interesting form of dwarfism because they have normal sized torsos, but all of their, appendages, their arms and legs, their limbs are, small, which is so it's an interesting challenge. And watching them function, and how they have to deal with things like, we got an Airbnb, and we're gonna go stay in a cabin, and we have to bring stools.
It's really fascinating. It is fascinating. I love them. They're so adorable. They're very fun.
Think they're just a sweet little family. My favorite episode, I think, is the first 1. So far anyway. They're running a house. Yes.
And they are trying to move their armoire into their bedroom. Yes. And everything I'm sure is a struggle for them because they're smaller than Right. Typical people. Right.
And the camera people are just watching. Well, that's their role. Jump in and out. But as they tip over the armoire, they hear a clatter, clatter, clatter, clatter. A bunch of stuff was in the armoire.
And the the the mom says, oh, I forgot we put that sink in there. What let's rewind here for a minute because I I heard that, and I thought to myself, well, that's a strange place to store a sink because they aren't moving in. Like, they live there, and at some point, they went, we gotta put this sink somewhere. Wait. And they went, throw it in the armoire.
Put it in there. So every time the armoire moves, it's The sink is clanking around inside the armoire. And then and I don't know what that maybe it's a bathroom sink. I don't know what sink it is. I we never find out what the sink is.
We never we we gotta find out about that sink. We never get to find out. Pretty funny. I love it. I think it's It's a good show.
Where are we watching on Max? Is that where we're watching it right now? Yeah. I think so. Yes.
Funny little show. Originally aired on TLC, I think, when it started. And, and I don't think they're still making episodes. Is that is that right? I don't know because I don't wanna look and see if if Yeah.
I know. I don't wanna get spoiled. I don't know. But, anyway, it's been going on since 2015, and we're finally getting around to watching it. And it's a great little show.
It's fantastic. Lot of fun. It's a little heartwarming. It's I know. Sweet.
Do you remember, what was the the other 1 that The roll off? Yeah. The roll off. What was their show called? Little People, Big World.
That was another good 1 that was really interesting, and I wonder what's up with that family. I don't know. Because that was that was quite that 1 was in when did that show start? 7 little Johnson. No.
No. No. I mean, I know I'm gonna see. Season 14, you said, Dan? They have done 14 seasons.
Holy smokes. Yeah. Little People, Big World, was on in man, why can't I find this? 2006. So that 1 was, that 1 was quite a way, quite a ways before this 1.
And they did, holy cow, 25 seasons of Little People Big Bore. Yeah. 20 5 seasons. Farm and everything. They were all up at the farm.
Right. Right. Right. Right. Anyway, very interesting.
Alright. If you're looking for a new show It's a it's a good show. I recommend is 7 Little Johnston. It's a good we laugh. We showed it to the kids.
They were dying. It's very, very It's it's It's a it's a great little show. Emery had a friend at our house over the weekend. Uh-huh. And this is a a friend not a new friend, but a friend who hasn't been at our house before and doesn't know me very well.
I'm a weirdo. Emery knows this. I've Everyone who lives in my house knows this. Yeah. Her friend doesn't know this.
She knows it now. And let's let's let's explain because leaving this wide open for interpretation is is not the thing to do. When you say you're a weirdo, what you mean is you don't know how to interact with people on a normal level? Yep. So you can't just walk past Emery's room, and they're in there making friendship bracelets, and you can't just go, like, hey.
What's up, guys? You good? Do you need anything? Instead, you do what? I walk in, and I say, what's up, guys?
Because I have to play it cool. What's up? What's up? What's up? What's going on?
Making some friendship. I was like, cool. Cool. Cool. Cool.
Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Because when I walk by, I just go like, hey.
Girls good? Do you need anything? And they're like, no. And I'm like, alright. Cool.
And then I walk away. The here's the thing. This is not just specific to her friend. I do this to our family on a normal basis. This is just this is just me.
Right. And so Emery sees me and goes, here is my mom. And their friend is trying to be very polite and goes, yep. Making some bracelets. And I go, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool.
And then Emery's looking at you like, why are you still standing? Yeah. Why are you still in my room? Please leave. See, that's the difference.
I walk past. I don't go in. Well, see, and that is the difference because I I'd like to embarrass the kids. So that's walked by and and they they looked like they were kind of I mean, they looked like they were entertained, but they looked like maybe they were kinda like, Mhmm. And so I said, hey.
If you guys want to, you know, play video games downstairs or whatever, I said the theater's open. You know, go go hang out. And and they were like, okay. Like, again, just giving them suggestions, letting them know they you've you've free roam the house. You're not trapped just in this 1 space.
Like, hey. If you guys wanna go out back, you know, cornhole is set up, whatever. Yeah. Food's gonna be done soon. Little update.
I didn't say any of that. Yeah. I know. Instead, you went, hey. What's up?
What's up? What's up? We went Hey, cool. You guys. What's up?
What's going on? How's things? You guys good? Can I hang out? You guys got extra supplies?
I just thought so strange. I know. Like a creep in an alley. Hey. What's up?
I saw this thing the other day that said, your pet knows what you've named them, and everybody in your house knows your pet's name, but we'll never know what our pet has named us. I might. How? Arf. No.
It feels like my name's Arf. That sounds about right. She she stares at me, and then she goes, her You look at her her feet come off the ground. Yes. And it's hysterical.
But, you know, am I woman? I've never heard her go And you're man. No. I know. But in her mind, is she like, oh, I gotta go find that?
I think your you get that growl before yours. Yeah. Because she knows that I'm annoyed by her. So she Right. She amps it up a little bit for you.
Does. I'm and you're I don't think that's I don't think those are names. I think those are, like, functions that she needs to do. So water. Right?
That's water. No. And then after I get water either. Oh, Josh. Like, she's I've never like, I've I've not seen her wander around her bowl Okay.
And ask for water. Okay. So maybe the roof is outside. Right. But it but she makes a different noise to different people when she wants your attention.
I think that's your name. I don't think so. Versus arf. No. We're really gonna have to pay attention.
Yeah. Because when I get that weird silent. That noise. What are the kids' names then? I mean, I don't know yet.
I gotta watch a little closer because I don't see her do anything for the kids. She doesn't because she knows that they're not gonna take care of her. So she's like, I don't I'm not even gonna bother naming them. Earth. They don't do anything for me.
Earth. Which 1AM I? Earth. Why do I get the growl? I don't know why.
That's not nice. Or it it's fancier. No. I just get earth. IRF.
IRF, wind, and fire. Yes. That's it. What? There were some Arizona park rangers, and they decided to do that old trick where they were gonna cook something in their car because temperatures were pretty hot.
I know. I saw some stuff from, like, Death Valley, and it's insanely hot down there. How hot was it in Arizona where they were doing this? They hold on. Let me tell you.
Let me tell you the story. Alright. Tell me the story. They decided to cook some banana bread in their car. K.
Park rangers. So they put their banana bread in their car at 11 AM. It was 97 degrees at 11 AM, which meant in their car, their dashboard clocked in at a 163 degrees. So they said, perfect. This looks like a great oven.
So they put their banana bread on the dashboard, and then around 2 PM, the outside in temperatures the outside temperature was a 105. Dashboard temperature is 211. 211? Yes. And at that point, the tops of the banana bread, they had started to turn a golden brown.
They took them out around 3 PM and said that the outside was perfectly baked. Inside, it was still a little bit squishy. K. But they said, if you just ate the crust, fine. Yeah.
Plus, your car smells like banana bread. Is that a good thing? Delicious. Okay. Here's here's what I what I know.
First of all, for East Idaho, there's a heat advisory in effect. Yes. Because today, a high of 95. Ugh. I know.
I know. 97 tomorrow. Conditioning. Thursday, we're breaking the 100 mark. We're gonna be over a 100 Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
Very hot. Very, very hot this week. Here's, and then Sunday, 99, Monday, 95, 97, Tuesday. It's it's high nineties and 100 for, like, the remainder of the month. Oh, very good.
It's very hot. Very hot. Let's talk about what's going on in Death Valley, though. Oh, Right now, today, 106. What?
No. Right now. It's a 160 degrees right now. Their high today, 127 degrees. That's not even real.
Yeah. Yeah. It is. That's for real. They are over 100 and 20 degrees.
While we're sitting here at a 100, Death Valley, California, 127, 126, 125, Friday, 124 degrees. Okay. Here's here's what you need to know. And here's what the park rangers these park rangers that cooked banana bread in the car. They said, okay.
The ideal cooking thing is cookie. Like, we can make cookies perfectly. Yep. But it was also a warning and, like, a, hey, guys. It's hot.
So think about your pets and think about your kids, and please do not leave them in the car because it's dangerous. Insanely dangerous. Same thing for East Idaho right now. Yeah. And the other thing I would I would bring up is that the pavement is wicked hot.
Blacktop gets crazy hot. And if you can't put the back of your hand on there comfortably for more than a few seconds, don't make your pets walk on the blacktop. You're burning their little feet. I was watching Luna the other day. She was just on the deck, but she kept she was tangled around, so it was her own fault.
What? Right. But she had hot feet? But she had hot feet. Yeah.
And she kept lifting her feet up, and I said, now I'm gonna have to do something. You gotta untangle your feet. Untangle it. Get your feet off the grass. Make me get up and help you.
Yep. So be careful. Drink lots of water, stay hydrated, sunscreen, etcetera, etcetera, and, find the shade. And don't stay in your car. It's hot.
Stay in your car. Don't leave anyone in the car. Don't leave an animal in the car. It's way too hot. It is time for your would you rather this or that question of the day.
Would you rather have a water balloon fight or a water gun fight? I feel like water balloons just make a mess. Yeah. It's kinda where I was thinking. There's a lot less cleanup if I just use a squirt gun instead balloons.
Yeah. But water balloons are way more fun. Water balloons are way more fun. They make the ones where you don't even have to, like, tie them. You just fill up a 100 of them at once.
I know. It's actually, like, a pretty easy thing to do, but then the yard is covered in little balloon pieces. Guess what? They don't disintegrate. I know.
You have to pick them up. Yeah. Yep. You have to clean all of that mess up, and they're tiny little pieces. Yeah.
So for that reason alone, I'm saying squirt gun. Water balloons are more fun. Yeah. Agreed. Plus, they've got the squirt guns on the market today, lot better than the super soakers of the nineties, I might say.
Not not as cool looking. There was something about the water tank that you could you could take off and fill it, and then it screws into the gun and you pressurize it and then pump pump pump pump pump. But the new ones, like, the amount of water they can push through a water gun now, it's a lot. Have you seen these? No.
I should show you. It'd be worth picking up a couple of these because It's a it's quite the amount of water. And let's surprise our kids. So we'll wait at home and say, come find us. So just 1 for you and 1 for me?
Yep. They're expensive. Really? For a water gun? How much?
Like, I'm trying to figure out what weird website this is. Oh, no. A lot more than I expected. For the good 1, this, this Spira. Yeah.
I think we've got we've got some super soakers in the shed. Is that a 2 pack? We need to get those out. I gotta look and see how much this is. But, anyway, I'll show you.
It's a $100 What? For a 2 pack. For 2 wow. Okay. We're not gonna do that.
We're gonna get some we're gonna get some cheap versions, and then we're gonna have a water They're $52 each or 97 for the pair. No way. But we're gonna get some show you it's really expensive for a water gun, but, you gotta see. Anyway, water fight with the with the water guns. Okay.
That's what I'm picking. Better today than yesterday daily challenge. It's a little bit of a treat yo self, which those are always okay. This 1 is to treat yo self to a manicure or pedicure today. Oh, no.
Yeah. You don't wanna go get your nails done? No. Because I can't relax, you see. Okay.
But if you were just gonna go get a manicure, do you have to relax? Yeah. You do. You do. Yes.
I've never had a manicure, so I don't know. The last couple of times I've gone to get a manicure pedicure, they shake my feet and tell me to relax. Right. That's why I was saying just hands. No.
No. No. And then I go to get the manicure, and then she does the same thing where she shakes my hand and says relax. And I go, I I feel like I'm relaxed, but now you've made it so I'm even more tense because I'm focused on trying to relax. Okay.
So I don't know. Here's what it says. It says treat yourself and take that time to just enjoy the feeling. I would love to. I really would just love to relax and sit and be like, cool.
I'm gonna enjoy the feeling. You do what you need to do. So do that. I can't I don't know how is when I'm saying it. You just said it.
That's how. You just do it. Okay. That's so easy. Just do it.
What do you what do you what's holding you back? Josh, I don't know. Like I said, I thought I was relaxed, and then they say, you're not relaxed. And I go, I don't I guess I don't know how to relax. I really don't know how.
Well So it's a good idea. It's a nice idea. I won't be partaking, but other people can. But you could try. I have before.
What if you just went in and said, I don't want the the weird hand massage. Just paint my nails. Well, the hand massage is the part that I want. That's the best part. I don't care about the painted nails.
Give me the hand massage. Yeah. I was trying to offer you a round a round about way of not having to worry about relaxing. Get your manicure or your pedicure today. That is your better today than yesterday daily challenge.
