...and I want to paint it black? I've been doing some slow morning bike tours of my area of 50's and 60's homes. Maybe I've not paid close enough attention, but the trend for blacks and greys has...
Yes, that would be silly. I have used cardboard topped with mulch as a replacement for plastic weed barrier fabric in the yard and garden, and also topped with mulch in a few places to kill lawn...
Yes, a handful of big box stores are close to home, so it would not make sense to order from them anyway. The down side being there are big box stores close to home. I'm not generally a fan of the...
A hundred plus years from now I think we will have already gone through some versions of tribulations over climate disasters and food and resource shortages. It will be an age of enlightenment and a...
My local recycling center does single stream recycling and takes corrugated cardboard. They also take paper products like packaging materials, but it has to be separated. That at least takes away a...
I really enjoyed "Lunana: A Yak in the Classroom". It is the fictitious account of a young man in Bhutan who takes a job as a teacher in what they refer to as the most remote school in the world. ...
I've up dated my concept of legal precedence, although it looks like there could now be a new era of precedence. However, it appears that decisions are not only overturned to correct previous flaws,...
I understand the politics, which seems obvious. It just seems like it's not working like it was intended. And what value is the precedence of the highest court in the nation on other matters. Was...
There are some things about legal precedence that I don't understand. When the highest court in the land interprets the constitution in a certain way, and then years later the same court with the...
I honestly don't have a strong opinion on abortion, but would like to defend the integrity of science.
"New abortion laws say it's clear when life starts. Biology can't agree.
New research...
If it isn't obvious, I suspect it's just rhetoric to express dissatisfaction. They would probably be content if the president was a Trump like figure, or a Republican for that matter. It does get...
I haven't belonged to Costco for a few years but my recollection is of long lines with carts loaded with stuff. I think some commercial operations buy supplies there. So I don't know if or how much...
I plant all of my spring greens from seed in the early spring time. Kale, spinach, etc. Squash and cucumbers direct sow from seed. This year I made a small trellis and planted Scarlett Runner...
I don't believe for a minute he really thinks he won either. As a legal issue, can they prove what he believes or doesn't enough to make a case before the courts. Or does that matter.
I think first is to identify what actions he should be held accountable for. If he sincerely believed he won the election and the election results were flawed, is it a legal issue. Or one of low...
I asked my magic eight ball if Pence would be the next president and it said, outlook hazy, try again.
My hope is that Biden announces he's not running soon enough for the democrats to get their...
It's occurred to me that Trump will be trying extra hard to get elected again so he can once again be protected by presidential immunity and also pardon any of his accused cohorts.
I am no big fan of Trump and have watched parts of the hearings. I've not seen evidence of anything he has done that is glaringly illegal. Apparently sedition is a charge they will be going after,...
My landline bill seems to go up even faster than inflation. The cost of a landline may seem ridiculous to some and there are few others such as myself that consider the cost of cell phones and...
Despite his weaknesses, Clinton was a good communicator. Something that recent presidents have lacked. Speaking of drinking a beer with a pal, when Obama was in Denver he played pool and had a...
I've had a handful of bean varieties from Rancho Gordo. They specialize in heirloom beans, mostly from Mexico and Central America. At first, mail order and then I found a couple of specialty stores...
I once had a fava bean hummus at a local brewpub. I've tried to reproduce at home with only limited success, but it might be worth experimentation.
"Fools" works for me, but "criminals" is the first word that comes to my mind.
I saw my first $5 gas yesterday, but most are still in the upper end of $4+. Our local news said that it was record highway travel over Memorial Day weekend, so it apparently isn't having any...
Eric, this is it. Matter of fact I own her cookbook and also use several of her other recipes.
