    I'm working on a documentary about his sudden rise to fame, as the boy in the Mission Tortilla Factory tour video, to clerk at the day old bread store.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    But in an effort to avoid typecasting, Jimmy auditioned for the role of a lifetime: Satisfied Chia Pet Owner #3. Always the method actor, Jimmy filled his studio apartment with hundreds of Chia Pets. Jimmy was missing for nearly a month before police obtained a warrant to search his apartment, and there they found poor Jimmy, fused between an Obama Chia Head and a Tweety Bird Chia.

    Extensive pruning was required, and though some of the nation's top horticulturalists worked on the case, Jimmy died of severe root shock, surrounded by friends, family and more than a dozen gardeners.

    His last request was to be replanted, and he is now a box fern outside DCA's Ghiradelli Chocolate Factory.

    Putting sheets on a bed isn't especially difficult (bunk beds can cause some challenges though!), but I swear to this day that folding a fitted sheet requires witchcraft. It's just impossible!

    It's not impossible. It just requires two X chromosomes.

    This thread is a great re-read.

    Here's the pre-show as a reminder.

    I remember this thread and the pre-show video.
    (We would generally work our way to the double doors and just slip on through.)

    There is no annoying grade schooler pushing the Ghirardelli chocolates.
