Fellas, just a heads-up today.
We are advising our kids to top off their gas tank and stock up on groceries & water before Jan 20th. We all live in a big city and this is just in case of possible troubles on inauguration day. YMMV but let's all hope for the best & peaceful times .

Things will settle down after this has passed, then we need to "Mind our Ps and Qs" (an English expression) meaning "mind your manners", "mind your language", "be on your best behaviour", "watch what you're doing" and so on......... :rolleyes:

Back in the 19th century, the bar tenders would track your tab by making the bar with P or Q for the pints or quarts you have ordered. If you had too many, bar tenders were known to mark your points as Q and pocket the difference when you paid your tab. Minding your P's and Q's was keeping aware of your tab, watching what you were doing.
