I found proof today that God is real and that he/she loves me. [View all]

Early today I burned my man card and read the instructions on my new electric mower and
it worked and the mower started. Damn safety features. You had to extend and lock in the
the handles for it to start. Small miracle.

After visiting my mom and bringing her dinner I stopped @ the carry out* to get some
Riesling and the door to the cooler where my Riesling (Frisk) is stocked was already
open. Devine intervention without a doubt. This was a loafs and fishes kind of sign.

* Clintonville corner of Weber and Indianola.
