Maybe the bike is pregnant with another bike?

On day 2 of ICE operation, Portland officials decry enforcement tactics I guess it's all over the city, and all ages.

Extreme cold present at my kids' grocery store now; they just took a child's parent away as parent was dropping child off at school.

Beware lest your skepticism turn into solipsism.

Oh, Catherine, I am so sorry.

I did that, Sweetana, watched all of ER. Somebody said they should have called The Pitt "CartER"!

Pinkytoe, I watched the Landman trailer and that looks pretty cool. My sil is from Houston and her dad was an oil man, just like in the show--I...

The problem is real things are happening to real people, right now. You see the evidence with your own eyes.

Be safe, Rob!

I can't even bring myself to cut flowers out of my garden and bring them in to arrange them, I like where they are originally so much, and love to...

It's a good place to get dual citizenship. I'd think about it while I was there.

I think that's why I like leaving family heirlooms to people in the family when I can. It feels like I am playing my role in the family's history. ...

We just had ours renewed in October at a post office in NH and we got them back to us in 10 days! I was amazed.

Put me in the can't figure out what to do because house is in wrong location, bought it unseen, doesn't really work great for us camp. We have not...

Thank you.

Thank you.

The local one is white. I have another in another state who is brown. I don't know how to do the apple wallet passport thing.

I hope frugal you will let us know what the accountant and Vanguard say, I am really interested to know what to do moving forward when RMDs start.

I find myself thinking, well that grandchild is safer because she has blue eyes. I can't believe it has come to this so quickly. God help us all.

Oops, I guess I'm time traveling, just like 11/13/63, haha.

Thank you. That's a really good article, Tradd, will pass it on to my son. Thank you all for your emotional support, I really need it now.

I haven't done a darn thing on any of my list. Either get going or change my list.

Rogar, we started watching 11.23.63 and my husband really likes it. I like the visuals a lot, but it's pretty scary/disturbing and gave me...

My dad had his antique children's books and I just divided them up among grandchildren. It didn't seem right to keep them all, I kept two, and my...

I honestly don't know about the details of all of this, as I have said. It might be worth asking Vanguard or whoever whether you could put 10,000 a...

We have been told by government officials that ICE is coming this week to my children's neighborhood. Any ideas about how to keep the grandchildren...

I am reading up on this at Schwab and am now totally confused. I think I will need to seek professional advice on this, because I really don't...

Great info. I guess I have to do to QCD directly from the IRA when I get to RMD age, then? Because then I won't have to raise my income? One...

Sure thing, I really like mine!

Trips and charitable contributions sound really good! I do know that when my mom was in memory care, the cost was all deductible which changed her...

What if you bought into something in the brokerage like a tax free municipal bond fund? Would that work?

Iris, you can't make a contribution to a new Roth because you have to earn the money, like from wages. Investment income can't be used.

DAF is donor advised fund, frugal. So I gave Schwab and opening sum and then I choose to grant money to different charities, and Schwab sends them...

Frugal, why not just save the RMD, start a new brokerage account?

What I am working on is looking at all of my resources as one unified portfolio, since I have had a few different sources of money and I tend to...

This is news to me--where are you getting this information?

I actually don't have a version, I am sharing the video and what I have read, in the interests of trying to figure out what actually happened.

Obviously I don't know the source of your information, but a news account I read from an eye witness says this is not what happened. She said the...

That is amazing.

Thank you, I had the same reaction to the inspector. I will get a body shop to look at it. Unfortunately, it's not where yours is, Catherine, by the...

I remember seeing Sound of Music in the theatres and how beautiful it was.

I wish the artificials felt better. Somebody tried to tell me once that Rayon was a natural fabric, so I'm not sure where the line is--like the...

I'm not sure.

I have been researching and found an extremely important document that proves citizenship so she can file the court case.

The new ones we looked at this year all had white that switched to color and back--very disconcerting.

I used to select our banks by the food they provided on Saturdays; BOA had cinnamon rolls and coffee, thus the winner.

1. Go through all files and update, discard, and organize, by January 31 2. Finish assembling documents for granddaughters' dual citizenship case...

Wish I could upload my picture of my gnome and lights but it's not working. Found a "smoking gun" document in my search to get Italian citizenship...
