Garbage Pail cards--I loved those! Yes, President Biden has done a great job choosing diverse cabinet members, and that's very, VERY important to...

By my accounting from a next door neighbor state, Wyo. is is not just conservative but hard core conservative. I could picture Pence/Cheney bringing...

If there were more Republican voters that wanted that, she wouldn't have been the only one to take a stand (well and Romney maybe).

Because she lost a Congressional seat in Trump Country. I'm sure she has more popular appeal outside of Wyoming. I think many feel she's handled...

Someone who wants to act as a spoiler, much like H. Ross Perot's 1992 campaign which ultimately kept George H.W. Bush from winning a second term.

Didn't she lose by a massive margin? Who takes someone who loses by that much, and thinks they should run for President? Maybe she could run with...

As presidents go I'm OK with Biden. He doesn't have the oratory or communication skills of Clinton or Obama, but he's done a reasonable job of...

Wow! Good information here, thanks everybody!

Bean burrito and taco. I'm getting a steady harvest of tomatoes which can find a welcome way into Mexican food.

Going out to eat today. This is the meals I shopped for this week, plus salads, plus yogurt and berries for breakfast, plus leftovers. shakshuka -...

Finished with bacon, poached eggs, and butter.

Uh, huh. And lower property values. Good job. But yeah---I passed up the opportunity of a lifetime, by not buying that unrestored Hudson-branded...

Okay---Bonus Photo. I found this online, taken in the aftermath of the Jarheads Crash. It is of the spot where the Dodge came to rest, and burned,...

I would rather have this Nash metropolitan.

But, Yeah---here's another application of the same principal. A 57 Chevy sedan delivery, much sought-after by enthusiasts, being used as a landscape...

Yes, yes.

Homemade minestrone soup, with locally-sourced vegetables and hot sausages for an extra kick.

Salami and cheese rollups. Not particularly hungry.

The plan for the last 2 weeks of August Mon, Aug 15 Green Bean Soup Tue, Aug 16 Nettle dumplings with parmesan Wed, Aug 17 Pea falafel with...

I found an eye doctor in New Hampshire who will not require me to wear a mask. So next month I will take a day off work (haven't used any of my sick...

Oh, wow, what an awesome memorial for your Dad, and a great thing for all those pups and kitties!

None of the kids in our family have kids and we are all retired. I think we have all found that we are blessed and need to give back. I used part...

That is great and generous, and useful.

That's wonderful, sweetana! So nice to hear a GOOD inheritance story!

Have to send a rave out for my brother. He took part of his inheritance and is using it to pay for our stepsister's college fees. She might not...

I agree with Jane that I think he's doing better than most people think he is. What has hindered him are the ridiculous jokes about his age, mental...

This isn't an easy question as Liberal but I'll tell it as I see it. To me personally he seems out if touch with the numerous crisises Americans are...

I am so all over the map concerning Kamala Harris. I'm glad to see a woman FINALLY rising closer to real power in the US. She can be likeable at...

One thing I do find amazing about Trump, much as I can't stand him.....he truly has more lives than a cat's supposed nine lives. I honestly don't...

I did, and based on the price of the frames, I couldn't imagine they'd be as cheap as Zenni. But if you're going to just do a lens replacement, that...

I know lots of people order online, but I respect the measuring the in-person technician does. Perhaps I place too much emphasis on that. My tiny...

Did you look at pricing at Costco optical? I’ve bought my contacts there for years because they are the cheapest I’ve found. I assume (hope) that it...

Biden will be in his 80s soon. It is time for younger blood. I will vote for anyone BUT trump. He was impeached twice and now has MANY criminal...

I would get progressive lenses, not bifocal. Progressives are best for computer use, and the lines between the lenses is imperceptible. I also have...

I've worn glasses since I was 7 years old. I tried contacts when I was 25, but I was so well adjusted to wearing glasses that I found the contacts...

The reason oil prices have gone down are 1) that the only way the Federal Reserve knows how to control inflation is by throwing us into a recession,...

He gets too much socialist legislation passed. I mean geez, what kind of ugly socialist would want to help veterans who were victims of burn pits, or...

In this graphic, you can see we're among developed countries with relatively low gas prices: https://www.globalpetrolprices.com/gasoline_prices/ ...

Fossil fuel oligarchs are playing games with their drilling permits. https://news.yahoo.com/fact-checking-biden-claim-9-170008791.html

What exactly is wrong with President Biden? Is it that the right has permanently besmirched him with their baseless claims of election fraud?

on this we can agree. So why don’t you use some of your activism time to campaign for a half way reasonable Democratic candidate. Would probably be...

No, that's not all he could have done. The global price of oil is only a part of the equation, that oil must be refined and turned into an end...

I am truly hoping that the GOP has enough common sense not to nominate Trump. Ditto for the Dems not to nominate Biden. Faced with a choice of...

Saw on BBC that England has the worst inflation in their history. Inflation is worldwide…. not just here.

I could not agree more, frugal-one. Rob

Also Thank God former Plillipine president Rodrigo Duterte, Victor Orban of Hungary, and what's his first name Erdogan of Turkey. There's more than...

So sick already of hearing about and discussions about the Hitler wannabe. Just wish he would disappear! Life was so much better with him out of the...

Let me get this straight (as the husband would say no pun intended). About taking the 5th - is this not meant to avoid self incrimination? Meaning...

He did release the oil reserves and scold the fossil fuel oligarchs--about all he could do.

I estimate 8 1/2 years, 101 months, 437 weeks.

Haha. Cute photo.

How long until you can retire?

It’s funny that you just got this. On Sunday I was doing my annual ‘go through my files and toss/shred stuff I don’t need any more’ chore and came...

Volunteered to learn to do some of the purchasing. I start training tomorrow. Figured I may as well bloom where I'm planted.

Yeah. The president didn't control gas prices when they were high, but now he does.

Went from $4.08 yesterday overnight to $4.59 this morning. Unknown if there was any reason. Haven’t paid much attention to the news today.

$3.59 here this morning.

I was wanting a colorful print for our extra bathroom downstairs and had been looking through the thrift store stacks but didn't find anything. Last...
