I've never been clear on that. 14 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,320 Hold on, let me ask the. Internet like it's It's when 15 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:49,080 it's hot as hell or hot as balls, and there's a seasonal 16 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:55,400 difference between. Those two, well, so wow, the 17 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,240 Internet doesn't even know the start of summer. 18 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,320 It's summer. It's on summer solstice. 19 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,959 I feel like you should know that, my little wizard. 20 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,880 I don't know, hippie.

OK. 23 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,840 So I think that's when you can balance an egg on. 24 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,200 It's like Apex. I don't know. 25 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,320 What? Have you never heard that it's 26 00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:28,600 like. That's some that's some wizardry 27 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:32,520 right there. Hold on balance, an egg in this 28 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,720 economy. So it's also the start of our 29 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:40,400 fifth season as a podcast. So Hooray for us. 30 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:45,040 We have not been cancelled yet. Had a great break, refreshed, 31 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,320 did some stretching. How did you spend your your 32 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:53,760 summer break, Julie? I went on a lot of trips. 33 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,120 I've been traveling a lot. I turned a year older. 34 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,080 So I cheated death for another year. 35 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:05,280 Screw you, Death. Yeah. 36 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,960 I decorated somewhere in my Home Office. 37 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,360 I slept yesterday. You want to know what I did 38 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,440 yesterday? No, but let's have it. 39 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,720 I was at the gym, I had a personal training session and I 40 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,200 dropped a weight on my big toe. Oh no. 41 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:27,960 Oh no. Yeah. 42 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,880 So we will find out. Wrapping out with some 90s, is 43 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,960 that what happened? No, I was doing the whole 44 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:38,480 exercise wrong and my trainer diverted her eyes for a quick 45 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,360 second like I'm a toddler in the gym, right? 46 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,440 She diverted her eyes for a quick second and and I smashed 47 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:50,840 the weight down onto my toe. But, you know, this is a good 48 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,200 teaser for people to, like, stay listening to the podcast because 49 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,560 I have a feeling in a couple weeks we're going to find out if 50 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,400 I lose the toe nail or not. Yeah, yeah. 51 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,480 So yeah, that's riveting stuff. People like if I'll tell you 52 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,680 this, I've joked about it before, But seriously, if you do 53 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:14,560 want to keep up with Julie's toe situation and get the latest on 54 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:20,360 the toe nail development as it occurs, subscribe to our Patreon 55 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:26,040 and you can find out more about totality of the whole thing. 56 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:27,920 And we still don't have a Patreon. 57 00:03:27,920 --> 00:03:32,160 Don't send people there. What was the you talking about? 58 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:33,720 Like a dumbbell here. What? 59 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,120 What was the wait? What happened? 60 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,000 It was a hammer like, you know, like there's a big round ball in 61 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,360 the end of a a long pole. Oh, it's like a mate. 62 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,120 Yeah, and I was supposed to be like, swinging it over my 63 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:52,800 shoulder to like, land on the big tire and I was not doing it 64 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:57,040 the form properly. Yeah, I'm very much a toddler in 65 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:58,120 the gym. It's fine. 66 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,560 Ouch. Yeah. 67 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,480 So wait, you're going to a gym where you're like whacking the 68 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,160 the giant tire with hammers and stuff? 69 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,400 What the heck? Not by choice. 70 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,640 My trainer thinks it's a good idea for me to do it, so when 71 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,040 I'm just working out by myself I don't do that. 72 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,720 So no, no, I mean, are you, I hate, I'm sorry to kind of like 73 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,079 laugh, but is it? Is it? 74 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,840 Are you hobbling around? Are you getting around OK? 75 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,040 Yeah, I'm getting around OK. There's just a lot of pressure 76 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:32,720 on under the toenail like so I'm taking my my Tylenol and I'm 77 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,040 icing it in the evenings whenever I can prop my foot up. 78 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,400 Right now I'm wearing flip flops so yay for warmer weather and me 79 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,360 not freezing my feet off. But tomorrow I'm going to go to 80 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,800 the gym so we're going to see how it is whenever I actually 81 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,800 put on socks and shoes again, it'll be fine. 82 00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:56,040 So I did look up the whole egg thing, balancing an egg, and 83 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,040 it's a myth says people often claim that you can only balance 84 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,960 an egg on their end during the spring. 85 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,800 Sorry, not the summer. So spring equinox or sometimes 86 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,240 the summer solstice do the sun and Earth's gravitational pull. 87 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,120 But it's a myth. But anyway, whatever. 88 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,400 How did the egg know it's? My question was like are the 89 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,840 eggs in on this? Are they aware of the calendar 90 00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:20,120 date? How would they know? 91 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:21,520 Chicken conspiracy. I like it. 92 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,240 I like it a lot. So what you do during our break? 93 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,600 Oh, the same thing. Smashed your toe, Traveled a 94 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,560 lot. Still have all 10 toes, you 95 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:37,040 know. Well, but do you have all 10 toe 96 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,400 nails? That's the differentiating piece 97 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,480 there. You know, I think it was, it was 98 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,000 years ago that I shut a finger in a car door. 99 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,760 And this was back when car doors were just like entirely metal 100 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:53,040 and very heavy. And it was the Pontiac that our 101 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,360 brother handed down and like complete, like it shut on my 102 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:02,880 finger, fingertip. And no, no, no, wait, no, it 103 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:04,360 wasn't that. I dropped a weight on it too. 104 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,400 That's what it was, yeah. It runs in the family. 105 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,240 Yep, I dropped the weight and it kind of smashed the fingernail 106 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,240 between the weight and the kind of the rack where you put all 107 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:18,200 the dumbbells and Oh yeah, that it, it took a little bit, but 108 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:22,040 that it eventually that one, that fingernail had to go away. 109 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,320 And it's strange, like, obviously they grow back, but I 110 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,600 don't really remember keeping up with the process. 111 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,200 I guess it's one of those things that you try not to look at and 112 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,880 think about, but it's kind of amazing that the body will just. 113 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:38,880 Oh, yeah. Like, we got another one of 114 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,760 those somewhere here. Here you go. 115 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:48,760 Magically growing nails. I will say yesterday, so I just 116 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:53,560 had a pedicure done like last week and so my my toenails 117 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,600 looking pretty good. Like if I was doing a feet 118 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,360 Finder thing like I'd probably be making some good money off of 119 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,680 feet Finder. That's another Patreon 120 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:05,480 exclusive. And I decided last night like, 121 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,640 hey, I could feel this pressure building up underneath my 122 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,200 toenail and I'm like, you know what, I'm going to go and remove 123 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:15,120 this beautiful toenail Polish that my, my nail salon put on 124 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,200 me. And just to see like, how bad 125 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,320 was the damage? Because like the toenail Polish 126 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,200 was covering up all the damage, right? 127 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:27,320 It took me a while to remove it because again, fresh pedicure, 128 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,360 the the Polish is still pretty thick on there. 129 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:35,760 And so it took me a while of like getting it off and I'm glad 130 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,840 that I did so I could see like what I'm working with. 131 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,040 But also I showed the late before this, I went to the 132 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,800 liquor store to go get some supplies and the lady that was. 133 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:50,400 Before, I'm sorry, did you go to the liquor store before you 134 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,360 worked on your nail or before you went to the gym? 135 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,720 Before this recording. OK, OK. 136 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,280 And the the cashier was complimenting me on the color of 137 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,640 my toenail Polish. She could only see one foot. 138 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,960 And I was like, oh, I got to show you this other thing. 139 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,120 So I showed her my other foot where I'm just missing the 140 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,320 toenail Polish for my big toe and it's all black and 141 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,320 everything underneath it. I was like, I dropped a weight 142 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,440 on my toe yesterday and she was like, Oh my God. 143 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,800 You know, I, I hope you can appreciate that you became one 144 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,520 of the stories for that person that they, you work in a liquor 145 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:33,360 store and this lady comes in and shows me her foot and so I can 146 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,360 see her disease. Zombie toe. 147 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,000 Well, I told her. I said, you know, I removed the 148 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,960 toenail Polish to see what I was working with, but also if I had 149 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,040 to go to the ER they were going to have to remove the nail 150 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,000 Polish as well. So by me doing it at home, I 151 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:53,000 probably saved myself $800.00 of a hospital bill of removing 152 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,160 toenail Polish. Yeah, that's one that insurance 153 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,920 does not cover. Our Healthcare is great. 154 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,440 So, but Jacob, I digress. We are not talking about any of 155 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,080 this today. Cool, because what we are going 156 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:13,640 to talk about is something that I did 2 weekends ago and I don't 157 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,480 know if they listen to our podcasts and if they didn't, 158 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,560 shame on them.

I left my house one day, it was 166 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:54,280 Saturday to go run errands and I did a very hard sharp left like 167 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,480 Dukes of Hazzard style one street over from my house 168 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:04,440 because I saw the garage sale sign that said five houses 169 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,920 garage sales. Oh wow, the Pinta sale. 170 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:13,400 One street over there, it ends in a cul-de-sac and all the 171 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,960 houses on the cul-de-sac were doing garage sales on the same 172 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:21,640 weekend and they were all promoting each other's sale and 173 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,800 all that stuff. So it was great to go over there 174 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,560 well organized. And also because they're on a 175 00:10:28,560 --> 00:10:31,680 cul-de-sac, like, where do you park, right? 176 00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:35,000 So like everyone that was coming to their sale, like the 177 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,000 cul-de-sac was full. And so it's also a great way of 178 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,080 like coordinating with your neighbors, making sure that 179 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,920 they're OK with people parking in random spots where the 180 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,080 cul-de-sac is not usually that heavily trafficked. 181 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,920 But it was great. So I got some items from the 182 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,960 garage sales. You got some sack items, you got 183 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,320 some some some sex wag all right well and. 184 00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:03,520 It was also too, as I was talking to these folks, and I 185 00:11:03,560 --> 00:11:06,680 mean, they live a street over, I've never visited with the 186 00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:09,080 neighbors in this cul-de-sac area. 187 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,800 And so it was good to like meet some people in the neighborhood. 188 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,960 Lovely people, lovely people. Several of them had just moved 189 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:20,000 into the neighborhood. So like, they were what one 190 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:27,360 house had this beautiful ornate hutch, like buffet furniture. 191 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:33,000 It was a massive, like, it had to be probably a ton. 192 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,240 Like it looked heavy, just solid wood and all this stuff. 193 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,880 And I was looking at it and it took up a big portion of their 194 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,840 garage. And I was like, did that come 195 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,840 with the house? People that lived there, they 196 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,840 said, yeah, when we bought the house and they moved in about a 197 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,960 year ago, they said when we bought the house, I fell in love 198 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,720 with the furniture. And the previous homeowners they 199 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:01,720 had, they wanted to move it out, but where they were going to 200 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,040 move it to, it didn't fit in their new place. 201 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,480 And so the previous owners and the new owners worked out a 202 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:08,840 deal. So they got to keep the hutch. 203 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,120 But now they want to remodel and everything. 204 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,520 And they're like, yeah, that the hutch doesn't really go with 205 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,400 what we're working with. And so they were trying really 206 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,560 hard to sell it. And I'm going, there's one. 207 00:12:20,560 --> 00:12:23,400 There's no way for me to get it to my house, even if my house is 208 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:28,920 just a few doors down. And yeah, it was, it's, it was 209 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,080 massive and part of me like it looked like it belonged in like 210 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:36,360 a medieval castle situation. Really it was like this dark 211 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,440 wood and a lot of car, car. This. 212 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,320 Is like old old school furniture. 213 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:49,920 Yes, old school furniture and but so I went to three of the 214 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,120 five garage sales. One of the garage sales, the 215 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,440 neighbor had already closed up for the day and the neighbors 216 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:00,040 were like, oh, well, she's an older lady, she's pushing 90 and 217 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,400 it was starting to get hot during the day. 218 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,880 So she went to go lay down. So she closed her garage sale 219 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:05,600 early. I was like, well, yeah, I get 220 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,200 it. I would too, but one of the 221 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,640 things I got and I'm going to show you and if people are 222 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:16,560 interested in seeing this, they can see it on our Instagram page 223 00:13:16,560 --> 00:13:21,920 at garage sales Unhinged and it's a little Piggy Bank like. 224 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:24,760 So. What? 225 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,640 Julie's holding up here is kind of your standard cartoony Piggy 226 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,280 Bank. It's, I'm not sure that's hand 227 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,760 painted or not, but looks like it's handcrafted. 228 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,760 But yeah, simple, kind of exaggerated, cartoony looking 229 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,280 pig, tiny little black eyes. It's it's cute. 230 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:48,560 Yeah, so I, I love the saying when pigs fly because it means 231 00:13:48,560 --> 00:13:53,360 the impossible happened. And I think like for me, it's 232 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:57,360 such a inspirational saying. And I know like people use it in 233 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,240 an off color way of like, yeah, that'll happen when pigs fly. 234 00:14:01,560 --> 00:14:05,800 But also whenever you're like for me, I work for myself and I 235 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,720 want to do big. I have big goals, big dreams. 236 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:12,200 And part of me is going, yeah, when pigs fly, that stuff is 237 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:13,760 going to happen. And it just means I made the 238 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,280 impossible happen. So I have I have little remnants 239 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,320 of pigs flying around my house in the yard, yada, yada, yada. 240 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,640 So for this thing, you are correct in that it is hand 241 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:30,600 painted because whenever I said, hey, I want to buy that the the 242 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:36,240 daughter of the homeowner was there and she's probably mid 30s 243 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,800 or so the daughter and she she looked at her mom. 244 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,560 She goes, mom didn't so and so give that to you. 245 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,240 And the mom kind of looked at it. 246 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,600 She goes, she sure did. And she goes and you're selling 247 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:53,000 it and the mom's like, Yep. And there's a sticker on it for 248 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,520 $2.00. And I asked him like, hey, would 249 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,480 you take a dollar for it? Yep, sure will. 250 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,480 I'm like, man, I probably could have offered $0.50, but it's OK. 251 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,200 So what I'm going to do is I'm actually going to clean it up. 252 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,840 I don't know if I'm going to repaint it, but I am going to 253 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,560 put wings on this little pig and it'll live in my Home Office 254 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:11,880 somewhere so. Very nice. 255 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,120 So it's kind of your reminder to be aspirational and believe in 256 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,080 it, believe in everything you're you're going for. 257 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:22,840 Yeah, and it's also a then I get to turn it into like some 258 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,160 upcycled art for my for my Home Office. 259 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,760 So I really. I like the part of that story 260 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:34,480 where like you're, you're wow, you're selling that. 261 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,640 I thought like that was really important. 262 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,040 So and so gave that to you and like, that's how you find out. 263 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,920 Like, you know, actually, I can't stand your Uncle Charlie. 264 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:49,680 Most annoying man in the world. The garage sales really bring 265 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,840 out the garage sales really bring out the family drama. 266 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,400 Yeah. And then, then another thing I 267 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,440 bought and I've and I've purchased this type of thing 268 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:04,040 before is it's a 500 piece puzzle set of downtown 269 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,440 Nashville.

Is that in a 10? 271 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:14,160 No, it's in a, it's a box and it's like it's wrapped in like a 272 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,080 like a map. So like the you might think it's 273 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,200 10 but it's just like a brown piece of paper map thing. 274 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,160 So 500. Did you count them? 275 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,280 Well, so here's the thing, and I do this every single time. 276 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,680 And I, you know, I like to live on the edge and I have bought 277 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:36,560 puzzles before from second hand sales and I always ask like, are 278 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,200 all the pieces in there?

OK, thank God because he said 360 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:34,520 that and then went. No so but. 361 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:39,640 It's like the, you know, like the the sound equivalent of when 362 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,720 you would bite into a gusher candy. 363 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:46,120 It's that. I'm never going to put another 364 00:21:46,120 --> 00:21:49,120 Gusher candy in my mouth again. Oh my God. 365 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,200 But it. No what? 366 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,240 It it's I'm sorry. Wait, you are in through some 367 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,360 really freaky stuff. I need you right now to stop 368 00:21:58,360 --> 00:22:02,000 recording and go clear your browser history please. 369 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:10,720 Hey we do not shame ASMR stuff but it like. 370 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,240 I always thought it was about people whispering and you're 371 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,360 getting like frankly just horny whisper sounds. 372 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:21,120 You're saying it's not all? Audio It's so ASMR stands for 373 00:22:21,120 --> 00:22:23,480 Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. 374 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,120 It's a euphoric experience triggered by specific acoustic 375 00:22:27,120 --> 00:22:33,000 or visual stimuli. So for me, puzzling is that 376 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,880 visual stimuli, stimuli like whenever 2 puzzle pieces snap 377 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:43,760 together like and might take us, take us, making all the faces of 378 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,880 the rainbow. When you said when the two 379 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,280 pieces puzzle pieces snap together and you kind of brought 380 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,520 your fingers, I first you get the hand motion and then you 381 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:57,200 clarify this is me putting a puzzle together, not me 382 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:01,880 squeezing a big zit like it was the same motion. 383 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,400 And I think I understand now why you like puzzling. 384 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,200 It it, it does something to my brain that it is calming to my 385 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,720 brain of like, oh, everything fits together. 386 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:19,400 It's all like one big picture. There's also the sense of 387 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,800 accomplishment of like, hey, I worked on this thing and it's 388 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:26,600 all done. I'm not the type of person that 389 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,840 like puts it together and then laminates it and then I have to 390 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,920 hang it on my wall. No, the second I'm done, I break 391 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,120 it up and put it back in the box and give it to somebody else. 392 00:23:35,120 --> 00:23:37,000 So. You like so much for that Peace 393 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,520 of Mind. Everything is chaos, yeah. 394 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,080 But like my SO whenever I go to my friend's place and we do 395 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:49,920 puzzles on the weekend and it's like we do it as a group and 396 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:51,720 it's fun. Like you may be doing certain 397 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,840 things around the house and then you stop by the puzzle table and 398 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,320 you put a couple pieces together and then you go on to the next 399 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,760 thing. And it just does something to my 400 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,000 brain that I'm like, oh, that feels nice. 401 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,920 That feels good. There's no, there's no struggle 402 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,200 with it. Like it just feels. 403 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:08,720 Good. It's all it's, it's kind of, it 404 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,480 can be a passive thing that you continue to add to and that, 405 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,760 yeah, it's cool. Yeah, you know, so. 406 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,560 Re show us the next item. I I really did have a thought is 407 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,960 like competitive puzzling is a really fruitful thing that I 408 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,760 feel like we could burn a lot of time on. 409 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,400 But I'm wondering how competitive and formal is that? 410 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:32,200 Is there like an ESPN 14 where they're showing puzzle 411 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:36,080 competitions? It's on YouTube and stuff like 412 00:24:36,120 --> 00:24:38,800 that. No, that makes it legit OK. 413 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:44,080 So I was actually, I was going on a trip and ran into a lady in 414 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:48,760 the Admirals Club at the airport one time and she had a bag full 415 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,480 of puzzles and I had to ask her. I was like, are you a 416 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,520 competitive puzzler? And she looked and she was 417 00:24:55,520 --> 00:25:00,520 probably pushing 8070. Five no, you don't want that. 418 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,040 Don't want that. No, no. 419 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,760 When you're like I, I'm into what you guys are into, yeah. 420 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,880 Oh, no, that is my crowd. I am very much ready to play, 421 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:11,800 man. I'm ready for the Senior Center. 422 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:16,080 Like I can do it. And she said, in fact, I am. 423 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,760 She said I just got back from the international puzzling 424 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,640 competition. She went to, she went to Germany 425 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,840 to compete with her group. And I said, I said that is 426 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,280 amazing. I've always wanted to like do a 427 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:32,000 competition. I want to do a tournament. 428 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,800 And she said, oh, and I was like, you must be really good. 429 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,560 She goes, oh, no, we're not. We're horrible. 430 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,440 I said, how did you get to go to the international competition? 431 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,440 She's like, you just fill out an application and went. 432 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:48,280 I was like, oh, but she said they're going to change the 433 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,640 rules because, like, anyone could go. 434 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,040 You could apply. You could go. 435 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,720 I said now they're going to change the rules to where you 436 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,640 have to do like local competitions, regional 437 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,360 competitions, state competitions, country. 438 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:04,920 Yeah. So now, I mean, I wouldn't be 439 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,640 surprised if it's going to be on like ESPN plus someday of like, 440 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,400 because. Yeah. 441 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,160 And she said, like the team from Austria, like kicked everyone's 442 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:15,360 butt. And I was like, oh, that's 443 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:17,480 awesome, but. Figures. 444 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,600 Yeah, they were doping. We know it. 445 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,200 It was her and three other ladies and she's like, we had 446 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,200 the best time. It was just so much fun. 447 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:29,400 So another thing that I got at the garage sale was this book 448 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,640 called My Best Friend's Exorcism. 449 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,720 Can you see that? That is, yeah, That's kind of 450 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:37,720 awesome. Describe it. 451 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:43,840 It kind of the book kind of gives me a, it gives me a sense 452 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:45,760 of Stranger things, the visuals of it. 453 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,840 So it's from the New York Times bestselling author Grady 454 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,440 Hendrix. Never heard of Grady Hendrix. 455 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,760 It was also made into a movie because apparently there's avhs 456 00:26:58,280 --> 00:26:59,600 of it. I don't own it. 457 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,040 For those that are not familiar, do we know what VHS stands for? 458 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:09,280 It's a it's an ancient technology man. 459 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,800 No I don't. Surely the V is video is the H 460 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,080 fidelity or what? What is it short for? 461 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:22,120 I'm going to say video home system. 462 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:23,960 Yes. Yeah. 463 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,640 And on the book itself, it has it's printed on here. 464 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,400 It's not a sticker, but it looks like a sticker. 465 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,600 It has the be kind, be kind, please rewind sticker. 466 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:39,040 So it was didn't. Back back in the day, if you 467 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:43,160 would RIP AVHS tape and not rewind it when you were done 468 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,720 with it and returned it, you'd face an additional fee. 469 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,720 You. Know a good like it was nice 470 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:55,520 kind of a proto effort at companies just despising their 471 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,880 customers. We've perfected that model now, 472 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,640 but that's what it used to look like, yeah. 473 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,840 Well OK, I'm going to have to. I haven't read the book yet, I 474 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,720 just bought it because the cover art was interesting. 475 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:12,640 The book it is, it is kind of Stranger Things. 476 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:17,160 It's got the 80s feel going. It's a lot of neon. 477 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:21,800 It's a lot of neon and black. So it's both bright and dark. 478 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:27,240 So yeah, it's it's cool. Well, and like, I thought this 479 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,280 book was older than what it actually is. 480 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:34,760 It's copyrighted 2016, so it's only 10 years old, but I'm still 481 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:39,680 going to read it. And yeah, we'll see how this the 482 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,720 back of it from Bustle. I don't know if you're familiar 483 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,560 with the I'm guessing it's a magazine or publication Bustle. 484 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:50,440 It says this book packs all the magic of a summer horror flick. 485 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,800 So I'm going on a beach trip soon and maybe I'll read this on 486 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,280 my beach trip. Well, you better read it before 487 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,600 the end of June as we know now. Yes, yes. 488 00:28:59,920 --> 00:29:03,040 Or yeah or no, you can't read it until then, because then the 489 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,840 eggs will be standing at attention to hear you reading 490 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,200 it. Wow, you really just shoved all 491 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:12,400 of that together. So and then the last thing I 492 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:17,280 bought at this mammoth garage sale extravaganza, I don't know 493 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,800 how to really explain it, but I got three of them. 494 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,760 You got three of them. I did. 495 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,400 Are they identical? Yes, they're all identical. 496 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:35,360 So they are Half Moon. I want to say like Wicker type 497 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,280 decor that goes on a wall. They're they can be hung 498 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,520 outdoors. So I'm actually redoing my side 499 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:44,880 garden and so I'm going to use it as decoration outside of my 500 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:49,840 side garden. But yeah, so I looked them up. 501 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:54,520 They, I think if you bought them, retail price was $17.00 502 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,320 and for each one, and I got three of them for $5.00. 503 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:02,080 So I felt like I struck gold. And I'm constantly looking for 504 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:06,040 things that I can hang up on my walls in my side garden to kind 505 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,240 of jazz it up. So whenever I kill plants, 506 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,480 doesn't look like it's so lonely out there. 507 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,160 But yeah, that's that's what I did at my that's. 508 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,480 Like that's a big piece too. You got 3. 509 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,760 It's. Probably, I don't know, 2 1/2 510 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,480 feet across and about a foot and 1/2. 511 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,120 Tall. And it's a Half Moon type thing. 512 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,640 So again, I'll post the pictures of them on our Instagram and 513 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:34,200 people can see what I got. But again, the the gumble that 514 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:38,800 was doing that garage sale, the wife was heavily pregnant and 515 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,480 and it looked like they were trying to make some space for 516 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:45,200 either renovation of baby room or getting the house ready 517 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:49,280 nesting type thing. So I was happy to take those off 518 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:53,040 their hands and I can either put them in my house or I can put 519 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:57,440 them in the side yard. Can I, can I make a request that 520 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,520 somewhere on either you're talking about our Instagram, but 521 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:04,560 the more appropriate place might be our Patreon. 522 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,200 If you would, yeah, you're going to read this book, write your 523 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,800 review and post it. We'd love to know. 524 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:16,280 Patreon. There's no Patreon, No, but now 525 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,160 isn't it? You know what I mean? 526 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,560 I bought this book and I didn't look up anything about it. 527 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:27,840 I also came really close to because they had a lot of 528 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:33,680 modern, like fictional books and I came really close to seeing if 529 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,160 I could haggle like for 10 books. 530 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:41,000 Can I buy them all for like $1.25 cents and then I would 531 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,560 have taken them right over to a resell bookshop and see if I 532 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,160 could have gotten a little bit more for them? 533 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,640 No, we could have, yeah. Yeah, that's that's. 534 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,880 I mean, that's that's part of the game for a lot of people 535 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:57,040 that hit garage sales. You know OK, so My Best Friend's 536 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:02,240 Exorcism was turned into a movie in 2022 and the genre of it is 537 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,640 horror and comedy. Oh and this is very promising, 538 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:13,520 on Goodreads has a rating of 3.9 and on Amazon it has a rating of 539 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:17,560 4.4 and almost 12,000 people have rated it. 540 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:22,200 So I feel like I feel like I'm on the right path here. 541 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,400 Do you feel like, I mean, I'm, I'm not clear on what the scale 542 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,680 is on those ratings. Is that both out of 10? 543 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:33,400 No. No, Amazon is is on a 5 star 544 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,200 rating and I think Goodreads is a four-star reading. 545 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,400 Oh, OK, so it's not the worst thing. 546 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,160 No, I'm I'm going to read you the synopsis of this. 547 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:46,680 It says the year is 1988. High school sophomores Abby and 548 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,920 Gretchen have been best friends since 4th grade. 549 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:54,880 But after an evening of skinny dipping does disastrously wrong, 550 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,000 Gretchen begins to act different. 551 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:00,600 She's Moody, she's irritable, and bizarre incidents keep 552 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:04,080 happening whenever she's nearby. Abby's investigation leads her 553 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,960 to some startling discoveries, and by the time their story 554 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,920 reaches its terrifying conclusion, the fate of Abby and 555 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,200 Gretchen will be determined by a single question. 556 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,400 Is their friendship powerful enough to beat the devil? 557 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,480 Nice. So maybe I'll maybe I'll read 558 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,960 the book and then I'll watch the movie and maybe I'll hate all of 559 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,200 it because I do enjoy hating things. 560 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,160 It also says the reading age is 1 year and up. 561 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,200 I'm like I told. Yeah, I don't know that that's 562 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,680 ever true. So. 563 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,440 I'm not. Sure about online raining things 564 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:45,040 because you go to like if you're shopping on Amazon and I need AI 565 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,640 don't know like have you tried to buy a toothbrush on Amazon? 566 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,920 No. So if you happen to go to 567 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:55,400 something like something that you, you wouldn't buy on Amazon, 568 00:33:56,080 --> 00:34:00,600 they could go to a dollar store or Acvs or something and find it 569 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,040 everywhere. But you can find it on Amazon. 570 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,200 And there's always like 12,000 reviews for this thing that no 571 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,880 one has bought on Amazon is kind of like, I'm not sure what the 572 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,120 value of these reviews are because they're probably not 573 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,639 real anyway. So, you know, go into this 574 00:34:14,639 --> 00:34:17,760 thinking like, hey, you know, don't be swayed by what other 575 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:22,040 people ostensibly think. Well, I didn't when I bought it 576 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,639 because I just like the cover of it and I thought, yeah, I'll buy 577 00:34:24,639 --> 00:34:27,920 that. So we'll we'll see how this one 578 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,760 turns out. But for that quick Dukes of 579 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:34,480 Hazzard left turn that I did into the neighbors cul-de-sac. 580 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:40,840 In total, I spent $8 and I got some fun activities that I can 581 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:45,440 do in the evenings and reading a book and decor and artwork. 582 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,840 So super excited about it. And also kudos to my neighbors 583 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:54,440 for having a joint effort in bringing in a lot of foot 584 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:58,880 traffic to a really good sale. And they they still had people 585 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,160 coming into the cul-de-sac even when I was leaving. 586 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,720 And I probably got over there around 2:00 in the afternoon. 587 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,640 So who knows what they actually had earlier in the day. 588 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,320 But yeah, it was it was good sale. 589 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,000 It sounds like a good hall and not a lot of money spent to get 590 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:14,320 what you got.

Time bye.
