Relatives aside, I don't recall many of my friends having working mothers. My childhood neighborhood was prosperous post WWII middle class building boom where the roles of stay at home mothers and...

My mother was a school teacher before marriage, but really didn't work after that. She answered the phone at my father's business just to get enough hours for social security. Among aunts and...

I like the idea of a legacy box and just started mine with an out of use small hanging file box.

A password issue I ran into once as an estate executor is if the person has added a second level...

We tend to assume that humans have free will, generally speaking. This was required reading for a college course and makes the point that we are hard wired for aggression. "On Aggression" by...

I've wondered if storing passwords in a little desktop digital wallet would be a good place to store pass words. It would be somewhat secure since you would need a password to acess things, but it...

Spinach, black olive, pepper and anchovy pizza, homemade.

Rumor on the street is that there could be an autographed Trump memorial Veg-O-Matic in the works.

Amen.

When the news showed a photo of him holding up the bible, I had a fleeting mental image of the antichrist. The value of his loser social media stock is also a great mystery to me.

I also had excellent benefits with a small fixed pension and medical insurance partially paid when took early retirement at 56. My work was challenging and interesting in glass is half full side of...

I wouldn't invest my life savings in precious metals, but have always though it wouldn't hurt to have a little gold or silver.

In my corporate life, salaried people were pretty much expected to work a more than 40 hour work week and have some corresponding productivity to meet their objectives in job reviews. It was common...

For most of my adult life I've had hand-me-down furniture from friends and family. Much of it was the bulky "dark" furniture that I might have refinished and might have gone well in a larger older...

Good point:)

An out of town friend asked me if I'd ever seen smelt at whole foods, so I did a browsing mission. I did not see smelt, but I did notice, "salmon hot dogs". That might be one for a...

I've experimented with fake meat and cheeses probably since they were commonly available several years ago. It's safe to say that none of them taste the same as what they were intended for as a...

Coming from a mostly vegan/vegetarian, I could think of it as a glass is half full opportunity.

Other than government workers, I'd think private enterprise can determine the length of work week and commensurate pay with out making it official? There must be more to it. There are days when I...

In other news, our GOP representative, Ken Buck, resigned this week. He has always been your run if the mill Tea Party conservative. His primary statement has been that he no longer wanted to be a...

The fact that Trump was involved in an insurrection against the government and his unrelated comments hinting at some sort of violence, intimidation, or just outright harassment, like his former top...

A relative recently redid his kitchen with high end cabinets and granite counter tops for around $30K, although I'm sure the cost varies by region and who you can find to do the work. If I were...

I was actually surprised the media or politicians took his bloodbath statement so far out of context. The first time I heard it, it didn't seem to leave much ambiguity. However, starting his rally...

I think it was the same rally where he had a prison choir of the terrorists from the Jan. 6th assault on the Capitol sing the Star Spangled Banner while he recited the pledge of allegiance. That was...

There are times I get the impression from the media that Putin is very unpopular due to the war and sanctions among other things. I've wondered if it's overstated and he still has his core old...

I wonder what the voter turn out was? It doesn't seem like much incentive to go to the polls. I suspect that there are many Russians who are convinced Putin is just fine.

When it comes to Donald, I wonder how much fact checking really matters, since his multiple legal issues don't seem to affect his popularity. His statements already get fact checked routinely in the...

Donald has avoided traditional debate forums through the primary, so I don't see why that wouldn't continue. And I could see a Biden logic in avoiding a debate since Trump would lie through much of...
