Some random questions

  • Did you know that, in Excel, pressing CTL + ; (control + semicolon) automatically enters the current date into the active cell? This could be HUGE in my life! Seriously.

  • Did you ever wonder why you have to bag your own groceries at the most expensive grocery store in town? If they're not paying the cashiers to do it, why are their prices higher?

  • Why doesn't said grocery store stock any individually quick frozen (uncooked) chicken? Has this suddenly become an unusual ingredient?

  • Why does the space bar randomly stop working? (I'm guessing it's related to the canned air cleaning I gave the keyboard the other day, but still...)
Answers welcome!

Because this is New Jersey.

I wish I could fit a bag of IQF Empire chicken in my freezer. We only have the one, so the chicken we eat has to be fresh & since we only eat Empire - we take what is being offered...

FYI I have heard that Costco has bags of IQF Empire chicken... we don't shop there - no space or need for a gallon of mayo, mustard, etc....

Oooh, I love that Excel tip. Thank you. Here's something new that I learned and use a lot now. In most browsers Ctl + mouse click on a link opens the link in a new window. I don't know why I think that's better/faster/easier than right mouse click, select open in new window on windows, but I do ;-)

Well, I don't know, but I like the "because this is New Jersey" answer and think you should roll with that.
