Half my life

I have been driving over half my life. That's why it is supremely
embarrassing to admit (although I do so under the all comforting mask
of the Internet) that yesterday when I replaced my windshield wipers,
I learned the driver and passenger wipers are different sizes.

Burgertime






In honor of my brother Alan, who loved the video game and Mark Zacharias who has faithfully ordered a burger every time I have been out to eat with him:

I ordered a $8.13 triple meat, triple cheese and bacon Whataburger. You're probably imagining how much regret I was experiencing after spending that much money shaving 3 years off my time on Earth. Truth is, I'm asking "Where's the Quad"?
