So true. Google is equal parts great and frustrating. 🤣

Don’t go outside! - Oddly specific advice there, mystery person who may or may not have had an incident with a jar of peanut butter and a bag of popcorn. 🤔

Off to london - If Jessica shares her ice cream with the queen, she might get knighted.

Not so helpful advice from Google - This one was super funny! The advice on how to get your leg unstuck from a bucket may be fake, but the struggle of finding good advice on the internet is very real. Stupid Google.

I know this is late but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it. I've been traveling and am just now catching up with my essential correspondence. (further delayed by having got my foot stuck in a bucket).

Always a pleasure, Mark.

🤣 Those buckets! Read at your leisure, John. I can't keep up with everything I want to read. So I get it.

I have to assume that is an actual conversation you’ve had on your way to the grocery store 🤣

The obvious answer is to jam your other foot into a matching bucket and write "Gucci" on the sides.

Now you're not a dolt who got a foot stuck in a bucket--you're now wearing haute couture, and possibly a fashionista from New York, or maybe Milan.

:D

Happy Monday, Mark.

Brilliant! I wonder why Google didn't think of that. 😉

Our avian Neighborhood Watch (jays and robins) would totally protect me from visiting hawks. We’ve seen them in action, they’re fearless and awesome.

Of course, then they’d chow down on the popcorn and peanut butter on my head, but that seems like a fair reward, doncha think?

Absolutely. And it would surely be less painful than Hawk talons and beaks.
