My mom was born and resided in Upper Michigan until her death. I guess she would be in her late 90's by now if still alive.

Had the pleasure of sitting next to an 92 year old bus rider yesterday. ...... first thing she said to me was, " Is your hair naturally curly?" I told her .... yes. She felt my hair and told me she loved my hair. Her hair was exceptionally board atraight, the type of hair that requires a gifted set of skills to trim and shape up without showing a trace of "cut".

She was so delightful

I SO miss taking public transportation.....I always enjoyed running into unique individuals and the things I might learn from them.

.....You're The Apple Of My Eye .....

This turn of phrase means that someone is cherished beyond all others. It also is an metaphor referencing the sensitive part of the eye, the pupil, the most sensitive part of one's body.

....Bench Press A Buick...

German philosopher Friedrich Nietzche coined the phrase "What does not kill me makes me stronger.

BUT being strong (er) is relative: Some people are strong because they exercise their muscles, whole others are strong because they exercise their 'faith' on either spiritual or personal practical ways.

Therefore: IF a person survives a potential life threatening situation, people generally believe the experience leaves them stronger.

Hence, saying that one can Bench press a Buick is often synonymous to overcoming traumatic life's issues by one's own ability to be 'strong'.

"Take with a grain of salt"........

This means not to take what someone says too seriously.
