ladybug

is called a ladybird by the Irish.  I am moving this week so I will have no access to the internet.  See you when I get back, hopefully in a few weeks.

street game

one week when I was walking, I came across these cards.  I found a few of them on different days so I kept them to see what kind of a hand I got dealt from the street.  A good hand for 8 points if you're playing cribbage.  Two runs of 3 (10, 9, 8) for six points and a pair of 10s for 2 points for a total of 8 points.  I imagine someone threw them in the street maybe out of a car window.

drive thru bank

Pneumatic tubes (or capsule pipelines; also known as pneumatic tube transport or PTT) are systems that propel cylindrical containers through networks of tubes by compressed air or by partial vacuum. They are used for transporting solid objects, as opposed to conventional pipelines, which transport fluids.
