BM>>> Late being better than not at all! Of course some people fail to
BM>>> agree with that detail, no matter the reason.
NB>>> Sometimes it depends on the situation.... ;)
BM>> That's true! Great things have happened unexpectedly!
NB>> Serendipity... <G>
BM> Plus attitude. "We're lost!" can result in "<grumble> now we're going
BM> to be late" to "let's enjoy the surprises!".
NB> If there's plenty of slack in the schedule, the latter is the better
NB> way to go... :) If one is going to be late for something relatively
NB> critical, it might be less of a grumble and more of a worry....
BM> Yes, those 'all depends'. Might be one reason why I generally leave
BM> earlier than necessary for almost anything: if something does cause a delay
BM> there's some 'flex time' to accomodate and the crisis becomes
BM> less of one.
I tend to do similar.... :)
BM>>> Semi-gross but a natural event. Hopefully a recent mouse catch isn't
BM>>> what caused the cats their cough and taste-lack episode.
NB>>> Nah... haven't been any mice in the house for probably a couple years
NB>>> now... and neither of these two has ever eaten any mouse or part
NB>>> thereof here... caught and killed, but left entire... and usually,
NB>>> I think, merely scared the mouse to death by playing with it...
BM>> And so the mouse has decided while a nice place those cats don't make
BM>> good hosts and so the mouse leaves, leaving a poor review on "Squeek"
BM>> (the rodent version of Yelp).
NB>> Fine by me... <G> We didn't want their business anyway... ;)
BM> Now you did it! Being prejudiced!!
Nah.... just not open for business... ;)
