It's "bare", not "bear" smarty pants.

I figured it out old school--Actually did the math. Reminds me--yesterday I went to Del Taco and on the menu board in the drive thru, there was a paper that said "Shake Machine Not Working". So I told the guy at the window, "someone put a paper on the menu and wanted me to shake the speaker...

There must be something good about Zoom. Stock price has 8fold difference in last year. Another program I've just become familiar with and love is OBS Open Broadcasting Software. I've always wanted to screencast with a webcam simutaneously and this is free.

Use old underwear to make covid mask. This guy who I see at the library uses his old underwear as a hat.

Sounds like you're a good putter. I'm an 8 index but a lousy putter. I've been watching a lot of youtube videos on putting and now have a putting mat in living room. Do you have any good tips?

I can understand wipes and TP for the classroom. But at home, I haven't used TP for years...

News aggregator: Citizen Free Press (CFP) Swings hard to the left though. Be careful.

Don't know what "too much" is, but with your lifestyle coupled with your income level, it's difficult not to save boatloads of money. With the virus going on, it's hard to spend money. Problem now (at least with wifey and I) is running out of time and the money just keeps piling up.

When I was 7 years old, I climbed down into a sewer. The sewer pipe, I'm guessing, had a diameter not more than 18". Not telling anyone, I brought a flashlight, and shimmied all the down the hill through the sewer. From my apartment all the way down the hill to where I could finally come back...

Besides Covid, another reason why not eating out--The price of food. I look at what I get, the quality of the food and then the bill, not including tip, it doesn't add up. It's just getting to be no fun eating out anymore. Tough situation though for these owners of restaurants, I feel bad for them.

Well, not music, but this guy was very influential to me when I got "saved" in a Free Will Baptist Church in North Carolina. The pastor's name was Robert E Lee:

The Whirlpool/Kenmore dryer, the older model, not sure what they have now, was truly an appliance elegant in its simplicity, but built to last for a very, very long time. Not like (my opinion only) the crap that's sold today at a much higher cost, more expensive to repair, and not nearly as long...

I went through my tax records and see that for the last 11 years I worked, my yearly average income was $3000. I don't think Mr. Fremontpoke would be interested in my advice. Hell, I'm pleased if he just reads my comment. One thing that always gets me is watching HGTV and prospective home...

Just visited a friend in another town. He told me when he goes, there's going to be a big garage sale for all his stuff. I didn't say anything, and no offense, but most all belonged in the dumpster.

First world problem for sure. Here in CA look to pay another 13.3% state tax. Yeah. It's got to be a tough decision though. Money is rolling in, guaranteed income and appreciation on the investment. Sell property, pay the taxes, put money in market and watch market drop 30%. Has to be a little...

I bought mine ~3 years ago--what's known as "Pedal-Assist". My wife's bike, she can just push a lever, and away she goes. Certainly many more pros than cons. Pedal-assist bikes quit assisting once over 20MPH unless home-built like the previous commenter. A few pros: 1. I take long trips along...

Okay. Can someone tell me where's the thread about what I should do after my heart attack, or what's the best statin to use, or perhaps what's the best way to get rid of my obesity?

Interesting, never looked at it that way. When I look to move from So Cal, I think of other areas with warm climates. I like being outdoors and I like warm weather. Even though I do think the colder North is much more beautiful. So perhaps in my latter 80s I could finally live on some lake...

I live in Southern CA and when you live near the water, there's a separation between you and those who live inland. I'm looking at real estate in South Florida, and it looks to be the same way, maybe even more difficult to traverse between inland and living near the water. Any here living...

It's almost hard to believe the avg age of death is the 80s for women and close to that for men. Lots of the kids I've gone to school with are long gone. Same with my wife. Seems like people are dropping like flys.

Don't know your diet, but those eating primarily plant-based have a low HDL. HDL is known as the good cholesterol that helps remove the LDL, the bad cholesterol. So it stands to reason that if one's LDL is low, the HDL will be low too. A study just came out this week that said a higher HDL is...

I have a dolly with strap that I bought in the 70s to move washers/dryers. Later years was used for moving condenser units. 1998 Honda Accord with 110K miles. Would love to keep it for at least another 10 years. Runs and looks in mint condition.

What a great idea, I've never thought of that. Once I flew to San Fran for lunch. Flight was free, motorcycle parking was free at airport, just paid for lunch and the subway ride to China town. I was back home by dinner time.

When brother, sister and I were going through the items in mom's house, I took one picture. It was me on my 3rd birthday. How do I know? My parents were fastidious and labeled every picture. I looked at that picture and I looked. Then I could remember that day. I remembered being lifted up to...

Thank you for this. And perhaps it's only me, but how you folks keep your restraint and not make this political, I salute you.
