Ha! Good catch. ;D

I looked up what my 2012 Accord would bring in on Carvana. I have added about 2,000 miles onto it since the offer in Feb of 2022. Feb 22: $ 13,124 Jan 23: $ 9,791 That's a drop of nearly 30%. Of course, Carvana is having some issues (to say the least) so it's possible I could get more for it...

We eat there fairly often (a requirement as a Georgia native? ;D). The salutations are not nearly as standardized as is reported. Yes, the are almost universally polite, but they aren't robots.

Well how about our local behemoth Paycom? HUGE company that deals with payroll. While they haven't announced layoffs as of yet, management is attempting to pull in a lot of people "back into the office" even when they were hiring folks and telling them WFH was permanent as recently as a few...

Seriously? Out of the THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of employees of Chick-Fil-A, I can assure you that sometime over the last 76 years, "NO PROBLEM!" has been uttered a few times. I say "NO PROBLEM" quite often and have never gotten nary a look. Generational labels is also another pet peeve of mine...

I don't know...that could spell trouble since ChatGP *loves* to plagiarize and it is terrible at citing sources. Great way to fail a course and perhaps get kicked out.

Yes. This is how it normally works. As to availability, DAL is currently using two providers for Wi-Fi service; Viasat and Intelsat. Viasat is the product that has gate-to-gate service and is "free" for SKYMILES members. Currently, the following airplanes have Viasat: 757-200 100% 737-800...

I would be happy to see these prices to come down some. We have been looking for a beater of a pickup truck for my DW to use as a "garden getter" but the prices have been simply ridiculous. We had a trailer she could pull behind her 4Runner but she doesn't like having to back it up.

Well, to be honest...the dog probably offered the same level of service you would have gotten from the person. ;D

I think by default, all services that communicate are shut off...then you can restart some of them (BT, Wi-Fi, etc.) I would also think there are probably some 3rd party apps that can change permissions/what happens when you turn ON airplane mode...if it's not already a customizable setting in...

Oh boy, Amazon Music and the mess that has become. That gets my blood BOILING! >:(>:(>:( Like you, we are pretty caught up in the AMZN ecosphere but I think the Smile program is the last straw for me. I find little value in anything with Amazon Prime, so I will be moving on when the...

We get it, we are just ignoring you. ;) OUR point is we would like a choice and a few lines of code would make this work FOR EVERYONE.

You aren't kidding. It is something than can't really be put into words. I know I had some of my deepest contemplations about life, the universe, and everything else during those crossings. I think a short stint as a bush pilot in Alaska would evoke similar contemplations. Edit: This reminds me...

And this is one of my biggest pet peeves. I think anyone who takes video vertically should have all their flat panel TVs mounted vertically for a year. ERD, thanks for the tip...I agree that the lack of controls is annoying. It would be nice to figure out how to omit the "shorts" from any...

In a similar vain, the stupid "crawl" that runs at the bottom of a news broadcast. First, it runs way, WAY TOOOOO SLOOOWWWW....does the average viewer REALLY read that slow?!? When they first started doing it, I would find a piece of cardboard to hide it. Now I just ignore the news. AND ON...

As others have mentioned, it appears that you wouldn't have to work if you didn't want to. DW might find that starting out in the RE world could be a challenge right now. My DW got into around 2006 and the first couple of years were pretty rough (and lots of folks got out of the business when...

There is another service that has been around since the mid 80s called "The Work Number". It is primarily used by employers to verify/screen employee histories including income. It is an Equifax company and it has a lot of data on a lot of people. It looks like they also have property...

That's a good point on the cruises. I think they have really gained popularity as they have gotten bigger and bigger. I know when we were in Roatan (a couple of days close to the port), you KNEW when the ship(s) were in port. Thankfully, we spent most of our time up near Camp Bay far away from...

Ours has trended with the US market, albeit 0.38 cents cheaper than the US average.

Yeah...I'm gonna take a hard pass on that.

That would be self critiquing.

I count myself as VERY lucky in that I don't have much of a bucket list and I am still pretty young. I think that is because many bucket list items are travel related and well, Uncle Sugar (the Air Force) afforded me more travel than I could have EVER imagined. I have thought about figuring out...

You should sent him out my way...I would like to run some networking cables to a few rooms but I have hesitated on getting estimates because I know it will be expensive. On a somewhat related note, when walking the 'hood a couple of days ago, I noticed one of my neighbors had THREE "Geek...

This is a pretty decent resource for news/industry insiders about what's going on. https://www.gasbuddy.com/go/blog

That is good news all things considered. Thank you for sharing and enjoy the extra time this revelation has brought.
