from watching the Cosby show and i was prompted to learn what a Venn diagram is by watching Jon Stewart.

kingdom, phylum, class,order,family, genus, species

Right now I'm trying to fully understand cognitive dissonance. I must have heard that somewhere on TV too

I was in my 30's when I discovered that silos at dairy farms were not used for storing milk.

It seems to me that about 1/3 of all new made keys these days don't work, so I always check new keys immediately when I get home.

Keys from my local hardware stores always work. Maybe they spring for better machines, maybe it's just the operators spend more time and attention on them. But that's one thing I'll go there first for, no matter how many things I need from the big box store that the LHS doesn't stock.

It took me years to come up with a mnemonic to remember which pole of a battery to disconnect first from the charger. It's still a pretty lame one (pLus Loosens Last - best I could do), but I absolutely could not remember that without a mnemonic, no matter how many times I did it.

And as for pilates, the soft i note helps. But not enough. Is it pi-lattes or pi-lats? Pi-lottas? Pinatas?
