I never go to yard sales. I went to a couple a few years ago, but I decided it wasn’t worth the effort to dig through the “crap” to find a treasure. Same thing with shopping, in and out no looking around for other possible great deals.
I think I wore myself out when I was a pre-teen.

:lolol LOVE the Fabio standup!
If I even think about yard sales, I direct myself to my TBR to organize it, and the thought passes!

I’m glad you guys are liking the funnies. I love yard sales…if I’m in the mood. Sadly, today didn’t work out. :happysad
Oh, the weather is perfect. Wet & cool instead of sunny & HOT/HUMID, which I hate. But every little thing that could go wrong did go wrong so I decided to skip it this year. Still kind of wish I were out there, but I don’t have the energy to deal. :Cukoo

Oh how I wish I lived by you. I love yard sales. The only problem with those around here is that most of the stuff is baby or kids stuff. I have no need for that…
If you get to go out have loads of fun for us. :patrick3

Great funnies! It has been some time since I went to a yard sale… near us the dumb HOA tells you on yard sale day ( they pick a specific day they will allow it ) that you have to pay them to be allowed to try to sell your stuff in your own yard. :Cukoo
FBF! Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy FBF! Love the selling of that Fabio cardboard cutout..don’t know anyone who would buy it but it’s funny.
A friend had a yard sale last month and he’s 84 years old…very set in his ways and wouldn’t come down on any of his prices. so he didn’t sell anything…LOL

FBF. The temps & humidity here are to high to even think of yard sales. I just want to sit under the a/c & drink something cold. :hotstuff

Yard sales arent my thing but others in my family really like them. And they find good stuff, I never see anything.

Sorry for the late reply, it’s been a busy weekend! As to the adjunct point it is a shame that your friend was not allowed to accept the award. Good teaching should be rewarded, regardless of one’s “official” title. I suspect it was a matter of pride and expectations on the university’s part the school might anticipate the public expecting a tenured professor to win the award, because shouldn’t someone with a doctorate be a better teacher than someone with a master’s degree (or, a full professor be a better teacher than an adjunct)?
