They sell less of them these days, so they keep them in the freezer section in grocery stores around here. Same place where the frozen turkeys, ducks and geese are located.

I just saw that Organic Valley has a grass-fed butter that is only going to available in the warmer months. Haven't tried it and don't normally buy Organic Valley products, but it may be a lot cheaper than ordering online and will be available at many grocery stores. Not sure about quality, but...

I understand where you're coming from, especially from the standpoint of "green" products. There are actually much better and safer (fewer chemicals)alternative products in many cases than the green products offered, but simply b/c a company puts "green" or "safe" on the product (cleaning...

Secular religion? Herding? Which has the larger population of people buying from them, local organic farmers or big box grocery stores? Because I prefer to buy from local farmers where I can go to their farm, see their operation and support my local economy, I'm part of some mindless mob...

Yeah, it's healthy, no doubt. Trust me, I have come a long way thanks to my wife's prodding. You could say I went kicking and screaming. ;D I grew up in the South to very Southern parents and let's just say I was not raised on or even introduced to nearly any of this food I eat now. But there is...

We are, too. I'm not positive we'll save a lot of money, especially if supplemental feed is needed, but I'm sure the meat will be healthier than chickens from battery farms. I have some info on raising (websites/books) organic, free-range chickens if you're interested.

It really depends on the season and the availability of fruits/veggies locally. We go through a massive (and I mean massive) amount of fruits/vegetables with just DW, DD and me. Because we eat organic it adds up. Every morning we make "green shakes" that consist of about 14 bananas, celery...

We buy bulk, dry, organic beans and cook huge pots of them. Put them in the smaller Mason jars (about the size of a normal can of beans) and then freeze them. We do it with red beans, pintos, black, Garbanzo, navy, red, lentils, etc. Three nights a week we have beans over brown rice, amaranth...

If you're still working, beg, plead and whine to get them to allow you telecommute. Even if it is just one day a week at first, you can save substantial money on gas, mileage on your car and it is less stressful. If you can swing full time telecommuting, like I thankfully have, you can save...

My wife and I have term policies through USAA. If you can't join USAA, I'd look into SelectQuote. They are a sort of clearinghouse for several major life insurance companies. They look at all your history, do the medical check up, etc. and then tell you which company would have the best rates...

I have a young child, so maybe my perspective might be a little help. We have seen these things at any number of events, etc. I have NEVER been offered any form to sign absolving the owner of liability. I don't know how practical that would be considering that at many events kids are not with...

;D No thanks! At this point I believe it's wise for me to exit stage, errrr thread, left. I've mucked this thread up enough as it is.

No need to be defensive, dude. I was prefacing my post with the pissing contest remark so that my remarks were not misconstrued as being antagonistic or seemingly piss-contest-ish. I wasn't accusing you of starting or even engaging in a pissing contest. At any rate, you guys are right. I am...

Yeah, I wondered if there was something strange going on with the dealer after reading some posts in this thread. So I called up a separate dealer and they confirmed what the first dealer (the one I purchased it from) told me. Very weird. Oh and sorry to the TS for the hijack.

I'm not trying to get into a pissing contest over Toyota's warranty policy. But I just went to their website and under the Basic and Powertrain Coverage that you quoted above it does not say "from date of first use." Here is the direct link: Warranty Information - Toyota Owners And here is what...

Well, I bought a 4Runner and was told that. I just called Gatorland Toyota in Gainesville, Florida less than thirty minutes ago and was told the same thing. Call your local Toyota and check it out. Maybe they've changed their policy since you last purchased? I don't know. And this is not one...

That is not how Toyota works. They work off the model year. If you buy a 2008 model now, your "clock" started ticking on January 1, 2008. I was pretty sure that that was how it was explained to me when we bought our 4Runner, but I just called them to verify. He stated that all their 2008 models...

I'm not really sure how the warranty works on the make/model you've selected but I wonder about the typical 3 year/36,000 mile factory warranty (or whatever it is). If the three years starts from the date of the make of the vehicle, then the factory warranty on a 2008 would expire at the end of...

Oops. My mistake. Sorry about that.

Yeah, exactly. Once I picked up on the rationale as being the 4% rule (yeah, so what, it took someone pointing it out to me ;D) I came to the same conclusion.

Thanks, lucija. That makes sense. I wasn't picking up on the 4% angle. I never did well in math. :)

Interesting. But are you saying that you have to work for the rest of your life for that 10k a year or until 65 or...? How are you calculating the 1/25 ratio? Thanks.

There is no state income tax on wages or investments in Florida. FL Dept Rev - Intangible Personal Property Tax

Hey, maybe some felon Young Dreamers dream of owning an enormous arsenal of assault rifles. He was just covering all the bases. ;D I would buy about forty acres on the Santa Fe River in High Springs, Florida and build our totally off-the-grid Cracker House. Travel all across Europe with DW...

Wow. I didn't know there were companies that did not match at least something. I guess I should be glad my company 50/100 up to 10%.
