Just a 'very simple' living chuckle - my entire personal liquor collection is a pint plastic bottle of vodka with three vanilla beans for vanilla...

I'm not sure how climate change is going to be helped in any reasonable timeline and degree without government control or incentives. I have...

Agreed - The device is not the important part - the software is where one is protected. Phones are computers. Computers use apps too. And phones...

I don't have a liquor cabinet. Beer and wine (usually 1 six pack and/or 1 bottle at a time) goes in the fridge. Alcohol just isn't one of those...

Slight change but still on topic - these types of threads are the reminders I need to resume/continue my decluttering efforts. The last thing I want...

Direct banking: via Chrome (our preferred product)..not an app. When you load apps, you're putting your personal info directly into your phone and...

Maybe we need to add a bottle of Korbel brandy to our cabinet, now that we've gone to the trouble of acquiring bitters, sugar cubes, and maraschino...

You think we can solve a big ecological problem without a major change to our economy? Considering how significant are fossil fuels to the economy...

Some of my husbands whiskeys are over 100 a bottle

That's really interesting. I didn't know there was a Brandy Old Fashioned!

60 Days In.

Exactly!

What’s being put forward is not a plan to solve one big ecological problem. It’s a plan to use a big ecological problem as cover to turn over a large...

They aren't creating a threat--they are identifying it, and proposing a mission statement. Just last week I watched a fantastic video interview...

Wine whites and reds, preferably on the dry side A good basic vodka for mixed drinks A good sippin' bourbon A decent tequila for margaritas

I checked my city and most of the methadone clinics are away from the downtown area. Nevertheless, almost every other service offered to the indigent...

We persist. What they will do is create a regulatory regime that will over time make things like private cars even of the oversized golf cart...

Nobody's talking about taking cars away, unless you think encouraging electric cars and mass transit is "removing voters from their cars." No one but...

1Password is my security blanket

One of the reasons I'm opting for cremation is that I've seen traditional burials incur guilt in family members who don't visit graves. Namely, DH is...

There are times in life to be super simple and very quick in decision making. This is one of those times. Sorry you are having to deal with so much...

How rude. I'd tell your daughter to write a letter to the deceased (who was kind to her) and burn the letter ceremonially...and never speak of it...

Memorials and funerals can open old wounds in families with a history of estrangement. I find it sad that so many estrangements occur. A parent...

JI think the funeral or memorial service I would plan today is different than what I would plan 20 years from now. Right now, today – I would use the...

Seen it due to size, and attended one for a celeb friends grandfather. Then know of some due to jealousy,misunderstanding the relationship from a...

Rent a dumpster and throw it away. When you have a entire house to deal with there is no other way to deal with it in a timely fashion.

Everything is scaled now to massive production and distribution. For younger folk, lettuce/spinach in a big plastic box is perfectly normal. I must...

Quite liked the first season of “The Umbrella Academy”. Ellen Page’s character kind of rubbed me the wrong eternal-victim way, but I think that was...

I always drool over restaurant reviews featuring exotic drinks (at exotic prices), but trying to recreate all of them would seem to be a fool's...

wow! cool.

Dado; very well written. My wife and I interviewed over five "Fee Based Only" advisors until we found one that both of us trust. He provides the...

Tea,I agree with you that all these dates are suggestions, and it’s perfectly fine to use one’s own judgment about a few items in one’s own...

Can you imagine what will happen from China not taking our Sh*t? I always thought it might be eye-opening for everyone to be required to keep...

Don't toss it! The canned goods are perfectly safe to eat even many years past their "best used by" date. There is a lot of confusion among...

What does DH believe are the differences between banking apps and the extensive electronic data interconnections the bank uses to function?

Hubby is cybersecurity. His position: direct banking only. No apps. He also has grave concerns about biological passcodes. If someone get's...

Our recycling company has stopped taking some plastics: no dairy containers, no clamshell produce containers. So our garbage is up and our...

I eat expired food, I just look at it and smell it first. There are exceptions like milk. In fact I used to go up to Winchester, NH to a store called...

A towel that got mangled when part of the drier came off. It was a little shelf like protrusion inside the drum where the clothes go, and now there...

Honestly I often have 3 buck chuck around!!! Not that I drink in any quantity but sometimes. I like hard apple cider so have some of that. I have...

Retired people who receive a defined benefit pension and social security payments are in effect receiving annuities already. If the current...

To answer your question, Steve, I suppose the difference is that people who enjoy liquor understand that it's a very personal taste thing. Sure one...

Here is my knee-jerk answer: a bunch of bottles of liquor sitting around makes people feel rich, they think it gives the appearance of being...

Exactly. All of the insecure things people do on desktop and laptop computers -- using (or reusing) lousy passwords, not using two-factor...

Why is it that people are so reluctant to get rid of liquor? Even stuff they don't necessarily like. People (well, not people here, but...) toss or...

Thank you, i have been sick from food issues a couple times and it is horrible. It is hard but so much better to let go

Thank you for pointing that out, i honestly never thought about it. I had the talk with him before he left tonight. Today was just more negative...

An iPhone is just a tiny MacBook. As long as you are on your own secured WiFi network, there is no difference between them as far as security.

My husband keeps a variety of high end whiskeys on hand. From all over the world. I would have zero alcohol if I lived alone. Not really into it.
