    It sure was nice a few days ago when my outdoor thermometer was reading temperatures in the 60s. Only thing is, today at 2 in the afternoon the temperature is 24, and that optimistic thermometer still says it's 60.

    You and I tend to have similar tastes regarding vaping gear, except that one-battery mods are not for me. I just made my first purchase from Perry.... a Q Mini. It arrived yesterday. I like it as much as I liked the Q Class, and it is so much better thought out than the G Class, in my opinion...

    Who are people like us? No two of us are the same. I know it's true, because I read it on the Internet. If you don't itemize, you will come out better because the standard deduction for a married couple is going up to $24K. It's currently only $13K. The personal exemption, which would have...

    @oldbroad backspaced through the final bracket at the end of the endquote. That's why her post appeared as part of what she was quoting. It has nothing at all to do with ECF. I am sorry that the weather is forcing you to worry for another week about the procedure, @2legsshrt.

    This is a grill made by a very handy and creative friend who lives "down the shore" up in Joisey.

    But, misting it with ACV not only cures the dryness, it adds the primary ingredient of Eastern NC barbecue sauce. (Western NC barbecue sauce is tomato-based, but Eastern is vinegar-based, with shredded hot peppers.)

    It was within my control. I cooked it too long in the electric pressure cooker. That sounds like a phishing attack that has nothing to do with ECF.

    The pork loin is actually a little dry, which can be fixed. Plenty more to experiment with. That's sour cherry spread on the bread, because I wanted to. For those concerned that I'm on the verge of starvation, don't worry, it's my second plate.

    Here are those good-lookin' Lidl fresh brussel sprouts I was telling you about. I'll post another picture later showing them on a plate with the pork loin, taters and onions that I made for Xmas day eatin'.

    This asparagus that I got from Lidl is a lot bigger than any I've ever gotten at Food Lion. Tastes about the same to me, but I think I pay $4 a pound at Food Lion and this was $3 for a pound... might be the same price both places, not sure. But a pound of fresh brussel sprouts was only $1 at...

    I love Publix, but the nearest one is hundreds of miles away from me. Lidl is equal in quality and reasonably close in selection to Publix, with significantly lower prices. Yay!

    I told ya how much I enjoy Aldi grocery. Well, there's also a new Lidl grocery that's about a mile further away from me than the Aldi. I went to the Lidl for the first time today. It definitely won't be the last time. This store is about 3 times the size of the Aldi and has awesome meats...

    In February 2016 I visited Las Vegas. While I was there I hung out some with Bud, a horse-owning friend who lives there. Every year Bud makes a Xmas card featuring Danny (the horse). Here's one of the pictures from this year's card.

    No, can't follow that link. My source is just national TV coverage, but they've been reporting consistently for several hours now that there were 77 passengers and 6 crew, with 77 transported to hospitals, 4 of whom are critical. Some local Washington State news sources have been reporting that...
