Let's see how awake you fellas are and how much you remember from chemistry class.

p-dichlorobenzene - what is it used for that is relevant to this thread? <-- No fair Googling it either!

I made this stuff in chemistry class in high school. Of all the things I could remember, this along with C6H12O6 and trinitrotoluene are what I remember.

Momma knows this so she texts me at the end of the day, why don't you stop home and get the pressure washer so "WE" can do the deck and clean up around here.

Dash is dusty, Weather-Tech floor liners need a cleaning ... maybe tomorrow or maybe not.
Boss language: "I" did this or that = She did it with your reluctant help.

"He" did this or that = You did all the work and she came to critique afterwards.
Can't argue with it too much because ultimately they are in charge of what makes our world go around, and it's not money!

Don't know that particular compound but what I do know is all the "ene"s will either make you real sick or kill you when used improperly. (Now I'm gonna look it up)

43 years of marital "bliss" my friend. Learned a thing or two along the way. You can be hard headed for a week or so but when it starts to interfere with a night's sleep, then it's time to cave and get some relief so you can live to do it again. Pick your battles wisely.
Oh well, off to Plant City again. F-550 and 40' trailer again. 3 days on the road this week. I think my kids are trying to tell us something.

I didn't hear about it, so some kind moderator shielded me from it. I hope.

But remember, you're being watched by a Flock of Seagulls, too!
