Tidbits ...

Here are tidbits I've picked up in the past 36 hours.

* Don't trust anything from Michigan. After Florida handed the Elite Eight game to Michigan, I was swayed by the dark side and cheered for them during the Final Four and the National Championship game ... which they lost. I should have stuck with the southern boys.

* I've spent way too much time playing with radio apps on my tablet this week. I heart Radio has a Nirvana 20th anniversary station which always appeals but it has a major drawback. I was frustrated that after I declined a song, it would still play when I created a new station. To exacerbate my confusion on this feature, the decline button was lit, indicating that the app recognized my preference in not listening to the song. I'm a Pandora-user but their marketing is becoming hilarious. Apparently if you listen to Usher, Pandora thinks that you want to date black men. I kid you not that this advertisement popped up twice.

* At work, we're preparing to migrate our email system so we've been asked to delete unnecessary emails. Erin sent me the email from when I was scheduled to train with her for my grand tour which was the first time we met. Being Erin, she also attached a sweet message.

* Following a conversation when I dropped the f-bomb several times, Becky sent me a rather humorous email about "when we run the world."

* Soon, I won't have anywhere to eat for lunch. I already refuse to eat at Toscanis and in the past week I've had ridiculously slow service at the Dash-in. During this last visit, Miss "Laid-back" Erin went to the kitchen area to see when we would get our food. I believe this is the only reason we ever saw food which we scarfed in five minutes. I have to admit to a bit of surprise that among our group, Erin was the one spurred to action.

* And this reminds me of an email from Comrade Greg which is unique. Apparently, even the Comrade, who I have a passing acquaintance but who is friendly with the gals, is cognizant of the Three Musketeers because he asked for gift ideas for them.
