When biking, it's important to watch out for puddles.

It’s a home delivery job that has a few problems. So, give it some thought and let us know if you can handle it, and, we would like some feed back. If you get out of your depth, we would then see if we could organise a run off solution.

It's way too cold for shorts today and I should have worn my rubbers.

The real estate agent didn't tell me I would have this much trouble riding from my waterfront property before I bought it!

Off to the clinic to get this "growth" removed from my back today! It was only 2 cm when I scheduled the procedure six months ago...I hope my appointment doesn't get cancelled for some unforeseen reason or I'll have to wait another 6 months!

First, my wife can't decide what to cook...

Then, she insists I get what she decided not to get before at the market before the rain started...

Why, oh why, oh why does this kind of thing keep happening to me?...

As long as I have to get wet, I think i'll go see if I'm still young enough to join the Navy, and get paid for getting wet...
