Concur.

Makes me think of the old British saying, "Pardon me, Governor":laff:

It was probably always beautiful, but it was daunting next to all the little post-war Cape Cods that populated the neighborhood. I think we were like...

wow, that's beautiful now!

I agree. Willie Nelson had to get old playing concerts to pay back his IRS debt.

10 years of shenanigans covered. Wow! Tax fraud is stealing from the taxpayers. Multi-millionaires failing to pay their multi million tax bill....

Speaking of old houses, have I ever shared this house with you guys? (If I did, please disregard. I think I did, but I am not sure) It was called...

One of the coolest things I have found with this old house is digging up stuff in the backyard when we garden. I have found two axe heads, lots of...

North Woods sounds nice. I am captivated by those early houses ya’ll have out there on the East coast. Our earliest houses here in .hermann are...

Sounds interesting! I'll check it out. We wound up watching two movies about missing kids. The most recent one was The Snowgirl (La Chica de...

It's not missing, the FBI has had it for the last 5 years.

Stumbled across a movie called Last Words last night on PlutoTV. Missed maybe the first 5 minutes, but managed to get the gist of it. Very strange...

That stinks, Tradd. Sorry it messed with your holiday weekend.

In these days of marginally ethical politics it's seems like a lesser of evils. Now they can quit looking for the missing Ukrainian laptop, too. I...

It looks like Snapfish is saying a delivery date of Dec. 11, which is time enough for me, but I have an idea for a photo that I've yet to take. I'll...

I read that the pardon covers any offenses committed between January 1, 2014 and December 1, 2024. Just in case someone missed something. This...

Biden's rationale for pardoning Hunter, according to the news today is, "all the other Presidents did it--why can't I?" Apparently, Clinton...

Oh, Our Town! There is a revival on Broadway right now. I'm dying to see it, as I do "collect" staged Our Town experiences. I've seen...

Only 3 books for me in November: Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano - this was an OK read that didn't live up to the hype for me. It was kind of a...

Our taxes are closing in on $5000/yr for a 900 SF house on a 6400 SF lot. We have a couple of those little electric faux woodstoves, but we use them...

I'm glad you've made so much progress in the past 7 years, and it seems like you've also acquired a lot of insights along the way!

170 guns? Tens of thousands of rounds of ammo?

You have to be quite a doofus to get jammed up for lying on the 4473: ...

The pardoning takes care of the jail aspect, but what does it do to the financial/fine aspect? As for the firearms charges, this is going to be...

I thought the gun charge was a bit messed-up, and I think I've mentioned here previously why. I don't have much issue with the pardon for this. I...

oh Jesus, I wasn’t following that. Well that I can’t dismiss, it is a LOT of tax fraud not just one action that is charged 34 times. Taxes are for...

It's not just the gun conviction but also appears to cover the guilty plea in Hunter's federal tax evasion case. I know Biden has gone on the record...

Possibly the year’s most predictable broken promise

And today I finished up the last hour and a half! Thanks to all of you who cheered me on. Your support means a lot.

I ended up having to work all weekend due to someone else's incompetence. Import department that gets docs from customers and passes them along to my...

Of course Grandpa Joe was going to pardon Hunter.

I think $4000 a year for taxes for your small house is a lot. But I’m glad you came from New Jersey where taxes are untenable, so Vermont seems to...

The too late in the game comment was for Rogar's idea of using a commercial printer.

From the White House “…Asked about the president's intentions to pardon Hunter Biden on Nov. 7, shortly after the election results came through in...

I've done a lot with Snapfish--their templates are super easy to use, and you can usually pick up the product at a local business--like Walmart or...

Rogar, I still do a lot of cards, too. The past 6-7 years I've done a photo card with diving photos, but I didn't do that this year. You might be...

Hmm... let's see. Housing, definitely! My mortgage is half of my NJ mortgage--and the VT mortgage is a 15-year vs a 30 year so that makes it...

??

No, not Chicago.

That is so sad, Alan. And you are right - makes me cherish my family all the more!

We have also been hitting lower temps here and there, so the heat has been on and off already.

Catherine: So living in VT is saving you money on the holiday tips! Is it less expensive overall for you to live in VT compared to NJ?

We've been running our heat for awhile as needed.

I'm sorry you had that in your day, Alan. It seems like a sad way to go.

Welp, I've been decluttering here and there but not been recording, so trying to get back to that, which also helps me. I did an hour tonight, and...

Was this in Chicago? Because I just read an article that close to 30 Chicago police officers have suicided themselves, since 2018.

I’ll put whatever’s left on my salads this week for lunch. But wow. The soup was amazing.

Decorated for Christmas and decided to declutter a few items. A table centerpiece, glittery letters that spell out JOY, four tiered tray pieces, a...

What about just freezing turkey for later? Have to admit one of my favorite things with leftover turkey is hot open face sandwiches with turkey...

NPR had a feature today about making gumbo from the carcass. They said most people throw it away and made it sound pretty special for a gumbo stock....

okay-----makes me speculate whether that campsite & the trailer are stigmatized, due to that tragic incident. But yeah---15 bottles o' vodka is a...

Since we had thanksgiving at home, just the two of us, we have a lot of leftover turkey even though SO managed to find a bird that was only 12 1/2...

Oh man, Alan! That is so sad. Sorry it put a damper on your weekend, but you did what you needed to do. A young 29-yr-old police officer committed...

Alan, that is a sad image of that guy’s last hours.

We enjoyed a nice early Thanksgiving celebration with our daughter and grand boys last weekend before leaving town for our annual winter wander about...

Turned the heat on for the first time today too. 55 outside here and too cold inside…. needed to get the chill out!
