In the case of my 115-year-old house, I think the solution is to rip up the existing floor and sub-floor, install a new sub-floor of plywood, using construction adhesive and screws, and then lay a new tongue-and-groove floor on that.

What?  Were they thinking?

If you can do something, that doesn’t necessarily mean you should do it.

The only biology course I ever took was in high school. Still, if a female bird reproduces without breeding, how does it create a male offspring?

Bambi.  Bambi’s mom got killed.  Plus, when it comes right down to it, Bambi is a stag movie.

Lane discipline.

The headline of this story reminds me of when I was in the Army and the powers that be would routinely cancel all three-day passes until morale improved. Didn’t work.

Do you have proof of that?  Or is this more internet misinformation?

Mac & Cheese? I call the Kraft product Macaroni and Yellow. If there’s any cheese taste in it, I don’t detect it. The only good Mac & Cheese is homemade.

I’ll go along with the Mustang listed in the slide show. Not a great car, but last year in January, not long before the plague descended, I went to Kissimmee for the Mecum car show and rented a Mustang convertible at the airport. Guess what I got? Wrong! I got a Mustang convertible. A red one. It’s the first time in…

I haven’t been to Orlando recently.  Has the Suncoast Energy station nearest the airport raised its prices to keep up?

Doesn’t matter.  I can’t fit in your Miata, or anyone else’s.

Most of us didn’t realize just how profound comedian Ron White was when he first said, “You can’t fix stupid.”
