Line dry...

If I had a clothesline and clothespins, and wasn't too damned lazy/bad backish to carry clothes up the stairs from the basement, then out to the deck and down and out to the yard, and then later haul them all back in again.

But as childhood memories tell me, there's not a Bounce-type sheet that can come close to the wonderful smell of sun-dried clothes.

And stepping off of memory lane and back to reality:

laptop or desktop?

(Computers!, folks. Get your minds out of your...er...laps?)

Laptop. I don't own one, but planning on investing in one soon.

Thunder, if my fourteen-year-old Dobie hadn't become terrified of it. So I have to go with lightning.

Stuck in heavy rain with out umbrella or
in the strong sun with out sunscreen?
