I have been to a convention, pier, casino, flower show and out door concert. The bonus question falls under the category of "man's business" from my perspective. I only know as much as I have to to survive. Therefore, I now about the breaker box. In the bathrooms the tp holder is on the side now the kids I live with never put it there. I don't have a particular grocery day and my kitchen is set up my way based upon my mom's. It is now late so I will say have a good rest of the day and night aLLyaLL
