I was pretty much a transient with a college degree working on marine projects during the aughts. Everything I owned was in a backpack, until the spring of 2009 when I returned to the States. This led to me having a very spartan room, compared to my wife. My wife's family is pretty much the opposite and is a constant struggle for us. I don't see a need for us to keep that wobbly night stand from college, or the expired coupons from 2023. There are soy packets from the local chinese place that are so old, the soy has evaporated, but for some reason the mother in law says we can't use them as they are emergency packets. I have found chocolate bars that expired in the first Obama administration. So every once in a while when she is out, I tend to throw things out. It is an eventuality that she will find out.
I've found that lots of food is still good way, way past the date on the package. Chocolate is not one of them.
It's the car registration I need to worry about. When COVID arrived, the DMV had leeway on getting your registration updated on time. She truly took advantange of this.
I have tried it a few times. The Hersheys line brand (Kit Kat, Hershey's kisses) tastes like wet chalk. Mars brands (Snickers, Doves, Twix) tastes better. I looked this up once and Mars uses cocoa butter while Hersheys uses some kind of cooking oil.
In 2022, we passed the 20th anniversary of The Junction Boys which I had apparently forgotten was NOT one of the "30 for 30" documentaries. It's disappointing it isn't on streaming anywhere.

This morning when I went outside my motel there were Gooses, Goosetts and little Goosies on the lawn. Tonite there were Deers...many Deers. Tomorrow if I see the Hairless Eagle that's been in the area it'll be a trifecta!
Checked out Silver Falls State Park yesterday on a recommendation from the owner of my new favorite local coffee shop...well worth the drive, plenty of big, beautiful waterfalls...
It can be interesting to compare dates of two random, unrelated events. On 15 April 1989, negligence by the South Yorkshire Police at a football match at Hillsborough Stadium between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest led to overcrowding in two central pens. "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire" (titled onscreen as "The Simpsons Christmas Special") is the series premiere of the American animated television series The Simpsons. A Christmas special, the show had a very long delayed release. It first aired on Fox in the United States on December 17, 1989. The Hillsborough Stadium Disaster Inquiry report is the report of an inquiry which was overseen by Lord Justice Taylor, into the causes of the Hillsborough disaster in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England, on 15 April 1989, as a result of which, at the time of the report, 95 Liverpool fans had died (a 96th fan died in 1993, and 97th in 2021). An interim report was published in August 1989, and the final report was published in January 1990. The only episodes of The Simpsons to premier in January 1990 were Bart The Genius, Homer's Odyssey and There's No Disgrace Like Home. Flash-forward to the Subsequent Comments section: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coverage_of_the_Hillsborough_disaster_by_The_Sun In 2004, Wayne Rooney gave exclusive interviews to The Sun after UEFA Euro 2004, receiving a six-figure paycheck. After widespread backlash throughout Liverpool, The Sun ran a front-page story apologising for "the most terrible mistake in its history", saying "We long ago apologised publicly ... We gladly say sorry again today: fully, openly, honestly and without reservation". It said criticism of Rooney was wrong and co-ordinated by the Liverpool Echo and Liverpool Post. The Liverpool Echo condemned the apology as "cynical and shameless". The fifteenth season of the American animated sitcom The Simpsons aired on Fox between November 2, 2003 and May 23, 2004. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Simpsons_season_15 Following an April 2016 inquest, which found the 96 people to date who died in the disaster were unlawfully killed, The Sun was in a minority of newspapers not carrying the news on the front page. In a report on the eighth and ninth pages, it displayed images of the 96 victims and ran an editorial which apologised "unreservedly", saying "the police smeared [supporters] with a pack of lies which in 1989 The Sun and other media swallowed whole". A lengthier apology was published online. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Simpsons_season_27 The twenty-seventh season of the American animated sitcom The Simpsons aired on Fox between September 27, 2015 and May 22, 2016. The Hillsborough disaster was so long ago, yet it also seems like just yesterday.
