The left has certainly become nasty haven’t they? I can remember when it started long ago with the Bork and Thomas Supreme Court hearings and the fuss over abortion legalization. But the circle of their fury keeps expanding and now includes most of those who live in small towns across America—as well as Europeans who…

Agreed. I live in Auburn, which has the largest university in the state. It routinely makes best small town lists for a host of reasons, including a favorable business climate, easy commuting, great schools, low crime, and retirement amenities. Lots of racial diversity too, and not just students. Most of the Asian…

States isn’t a good way to rank. They’re too large and diverse. A listing by cities (if you like them) and small towns (if you like those) makes more sense.

I’d like to see Google Voice come alive again. There’s potential there. But years ago, I gave up and now just use it to call-forward cross-country to a new number. It gives me a local Seattle number at no cost other than a one-time fee of $20 to do the number porting.

Quite frankly, anyone who needs a calendar event to know that they should vote November 6, 2018, is almost certainly so ill-informed that they’d do us all a favor by staying home.

It’s a clever design, but I’d build a free-standing frame for the bed so it didn’t have to be mounted on the wall. Using plywood for the bed base and adding hinges would make accessing that space under the bed easier.

Given all the many factors, including the location tested at and how many people are trying to use WiFi at the time, these numbers probably mean little.

Actually, virtually any cheap multi-LED, USB powered light will serve as well and probably cost a lot less. I use an old one I had with my TV.

I’d heard about this. A lot of already very rich people got still richer with the sub-prime fiasco. This was likely to be sub-prime reloaded. They’d get rich again. Those who got sucked into those loans would again find themselves unable to pay them off.

Ah yes, we all know who that “friend” is. He occupies the same bit of the universe as you do. A word of advice. Wait until tonight to drink and go out with friends to do so. Getting drunk alone in the daytime is a most dangerous habit to adopt.

I’d suggest going with the C-SPAN feed on YouTube. The networks are likely to have ‘talking heads’ interjecting their comments in an effort to justify their inflated salaries.

Quote: On top of this, your brain needs sleep to be a “time off” period. That’s why screen reading at night is so bad. If you put your brain to work right before it rests, you’re still stressing it a bit. Instead, turn off the gadgets and let your brain take a break.”

One more suggestion. Some power companies, including mine (Alabama Power) can send you a daily email about your previous day’s consumption and alerts if it exceeds a level you set.

Quote: “... or insulating your water heater tank.”

Quote: “Thanks Obama. Seriously, thank you:”

No, there’s simply no need. Dealing with both systems is easy. My car is metric. My home is English. Given that both are well-established, converting either way is pointless. It would only mean trouble.

Let me get this straight. Rather than multiple miles by 1.6 to get kilometers, I must memorize at least a hundred numbers and recall them perfectly?

I have no trouble thinking of the right word or knowing its meaning. What often drives me batty is the spelling and for that iOS/macOS are worse than useless.

Thanks for the good news. This is what happens when someone gets too greedy. They create a market opening for others. Bravo CVS!

Agreed. Radar stealth is utterly worthless when you’re doing low-level combat air support. All the bad guys need to do is see you to aim their AA guns.
