Cloudy here so didn’t see them; but I saw them in college.

That’s funny as hell. I’m sorry, it just is. I can certainly tell you definitely are Catholic as you have tons of guilt. LOL.

And the customs audit today with CBP (remote) went fine, too. Yay! I was danged nervous. Celebrating with Culvers for lunch.

I am very relieved to say I finally did setting today that has been nagging me for months. It involved navigating a customs website that is notoriously non-user friendly. I got a pleasant surprise...

Good.

:D

I get the DR show podcast on Apple Podcasts. The most recent show is also on his website. Probably on Spotify, too.

Welcome

I’ve actually seen articles that the no-gas cooking push discriminates against Asian people and their traditional cooking methods.

Forgot to mention - author is - Amanda Ridley.

I’m sure Bae has read it!

I saw recommendation of this book elsewhere and got the Kindle version. It talks about why people survive disasters and others don’t. Both World Trade Center attacks, fires, shipwrecks, etc. Lot of...

Even if it’s happening at state schools - still modern day dirty hippies. I have no use for any of them. Go do something useful rather than blocking campus, preventing people from going to class or...

Sounds fun!

Woofstock - LOL

The only real objections to non-gas cooking I’ve seen is that they don’t work very well with woks.

Modern day dirty hippies. I have no use for them. Notice it’s all students at expensive universities who are doing this. Don’t they have anything better and more useful to do?

They quit the long haul flights. Used to do them several times a year.

Yes, there are induction hot plates. The one from IKEA gets good reviews and I think it can be ordered online.

Yeah, the foodies are the ones I hear gripe about gas be electric.

In cold climates like yours, I’ve heard of people having electric bill shock when they switched from natural gas to a heat pump. In many urban/suburban parts of the Midwest, natural gas is king and...

You don’t live where it really gets cold, though. Just like EVs, heat pumps in really cold climates might not be the best solution.

Glad it was of interest!

I rent so I’m extremely limited in what I can do. Gas forced air furnace that was 40 years old was replaced two years ago with same, but of course, much more efficient....

Very interesting article

Definitely NOT worried about losing my job (customs broker). Needs to be done by humans. CBP even specified last year, in response to a letter from a customs broker, that what we do can't be...

Yeah, I don’t feel bad at all about firing this woman since she signed a document that outlined work hours.
