I need some assistance.
I believe that the saying;
“Onto every parade, some rain must fall.”
Was created ‘whole cloth’, by me.
I’ve attempted to look it up, and all I can find is Longfellow’s
Rainy Day:
“Be still, sad heart! and cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.”
I also have found the phrase ‘Rain on your parade’.
My lovely bride claims she has heard it before. It’s just too pithy to be my creation…🤨
Please use the term media cave, - I hate the phrase man cave - it’s reductive and derogatory. As Sebastian Maniscalco said “my father had a man cave it was the house”
Thank you for reminding me. I wanted to talk about our post-show hangout in Memphis and here it is:
A ‘Loves’ truckstop campsite, SW of Boonville MO.
Why anyone would live or buy anything in a ‘Blue State’ is beyond my comprehension.
Diesel was $5.68 p/gal in Illinois, here in MO it’s $4.83 p/gal. I of course didn’t buy any fuel in Ill.
I can’t think of a single thing that folks in Illinois have (other than Chicago) that Missourians and Kentuckians don’t have, that rates an .80 p/gal fuel tax, among all the other ridiculous taxes they pay.
By the way, I don’t take pictures of the pump in order to share my fuel purchases. I use them as a ‘fuel diary’. I take the picture to get the gallons purchased, and the amount of course. I then edit the picture, and add a ‘caption’, which is the mileage.
Therefore I can quickly work out my average mileage.
I also don’t pay the amount shown, I’ve a ‘fleet’ fuel card that gets me a discount. The amount varies, usually at least .10 p/gal, sometimes as much as .40 p/gal.
