The iPhone fits easily in my front pocket which is where it is 98% of the time when I'm out and about. Any larger would be a uncomfortable...and with jeans or other tight clothing...would be harder to get in/out of your pocket when you're getting a call. Really tough in a car with seatbelt on....
I found most women try to keep the temperature WAY too warm.
I basically set it to be about 71-73F in my house when I'm there....and about 78F when I'm out. I can do a little warmer in the day, up to like 74-75F, but I have to have it no higher than 72F when I sleep at night.
The point is that when you buy fresh vegetables, protein, and fruit, you then cannot afford to ride the bus to work, or pay electric/gas bills.
That's not it at all.
I listed prices on items that make it quite cheap to buy and cook healthy food at home...that is at the same price as fast food, or processed unhealthy food.
I can shop for groceries, take it home and cook it and eat on it for days.....per portion the same or less than the unhealthy foods....and I'm talking I buy only fresh fruits, veggies and meats/seafood.
It can be done...I do it all the time.
The poor DO have a choice...again, look to the link of the sale ads I listed...raw fresh food ingredients, are quite economical...especially if you target your shopping towards the weekly sale items.
Apparently pretending to be a football referee is also a felony.
I saw that on the news the other day and I could NOT believe my ears!?!?
I instantly thought..."OK, we've reached the point to where we have enough....err....too many laws. If they had to come up with making impersonation of a freakin' football game ref a felony, we've gone over the edge.
Don't be so sure. Illegally parking in a handicapped spot without getting a ticket is nothing short of a miracle.
Actually...depends on the city/state you're in.
I was living in one place...where they broad cast it on the news, that people were getting out of tickets given them for parking in a marked handicapped space.
Trouble is..those paces ONLY had the markings on the pavement. By the law of that locality, it wasn't officially a handicapped spot unless it had the sign posted in front of the space too (sign conforming to height and size requirements of course).
So, depending on where you live and the laws of the land there, if you find a spot that is improperly marked as handicapped, it is all yours no problem.
Handicapped tickets can end up with jail time for people who doing all the time and I bet there are hard ass judges who will give some like the jobs the MAX time in jail.
You know...I think I just gained a little more respect for Steve. I love it when someone can 'beat the system'.
That is mostly in reference to the missing plates.
But as far as handicapped spots go....I think we need to rethink those...
I mean, most of the time I go anywhere, I see nothing but prime parking spots...empty.
And the few times I *do* see someone parked in them, with a handicapped sticker/hanger...it is someone that I would bet 100 people would have trouble telling if they were handicapped. They're often big, brand new SUV's. I see people getting out of them...walking just fine, no canes, crutches and almost never a wheel chair.
I think once in the past year...I've actually seen a van parked in a handicapped spot, that had a lift on it...for a legitimately crippled person.
I'm wondering, what are the new criteria to get a fucking handicapped pass to park up close? That you had a bad day? That you once saw a handicapped persons and now have PTSD? You stubbed your toe last month?
And lately, it seems that more and more and more front slots are marked handicapped....empty. I'm not thinking there's that much of a legitimate need for all those handicapped parking slots. I can only figure they're building more of them to accommodate the more handicapped stickers being given out to anyone with an ingrown toenail.
Either that, or the store gets some tax break for the more slots they have.
Look, I don't have a problem with someone that has a legitimate handicap and has trouble walking, but, this has gotten way outta hand.
I mean...the other day, and I shit you not...I saw a fucking big ass motorcycle...I think it was a freaking Honda Valkyrie with a handicapped plate.
First of all I'm thinking....an handicapped person on a motorcycle?? And 2nd of all...if you can handle a 1500cc bike that weighs about 660lbs, you're not handicapped. If you are, you have no reason to be out on public roadways trying to navigate such a beast.
But on the lighter side...I do like how he found the loophole for the 6mos plate thing. I wonder what the laws in my state are...hmmmm.
That âoeDefense Integrated Military Human Resource Systemâ was a Northrop Grumman
Actually...that was only the development portion of it. There were research, requirements gathering and other steps before that...run by Lockheed Martin amongst other large contractors...years before it hit Northrop.
That's just the sale stuff....you can take what ingredients are on sale each week..cook a bunch of it up on Sunday (most peoples' day off) and eat on it for days...which will fit into working peoples' schedule.
But it DOES take time and planning...so, you gotta do the time for shopping and cooking. That means you have to give up some time for TV, etc....but it can and should be done.
I cook weekly and rarely eat out any type of junk food. I'd rather cook and eat healthy most of the time, and when "I" want to dine out...I take some of that saved money and go to a real restaurant where they have good service, fine wine...etc.
It isn't hard to do...eating crap food is just easier...but not necessarily cheaper per portion.
I think you're confusing nature with modern society.
I think you're confusing nature with modern society.
I don't think so....think of the individual, each person is blessed with gifts...mental, physical strength, height, eyesight.
Not everyone starts on the same 'playing ground' even at the most basic of things in life.
I mean, hell...no matter how hard I tried, even if from birth, there is no way I'd have made it as an athlete in the NBA, or ever got close to that caliber.
That that's not even taking into consideration people born crippled or retarded.....nature really started them with a disadvantage that has nothing to do with modern society. Hell, before modern society in primitive cultures, people with deformities likely were left out to die quickly.
I'm 40+ years old, married with a kid, own my house & car and have NO CREDIT CARDS and NO DEBT except for my mortgage, which will be paid off early. I've NEVER had a credit card. There are times when it's a hassle (renting a car) but generally it's not a problem.
Just live within your means. In the long run you have to anyway, unless you want to leave debts for your kids.
How exactly do you buy things ONLINE?
Also, as far as I know...your children are not responsible or liable for your debts when you croak. They might not get as much of an inheritance, but the debt collector doesn't come for them when you take a dirt nap. That debt contract was only between you and the entity, not your heirs. (Unless there was a weird co-sign or something)
The problem with that approach is that the anti-vaccination kooks don't just make themselves and each other sick, they incubate diseases that affect everyone.
Well, it is still their body, and not the govt's.
Until that case is changed...even if it is bad behavior, I don't think you can mandate someone undergo something invasive like this without their full consent.
Hmm...well, the warts are bad that's true (natures "speed bumps").
But hey, it doesn't kill men.....I dunno if we should mandate it on men. Then again, I don't think it should be mandated for women either, at least not without parental consent to opt in.
Geez, it was so much easier growing up prior to the early 80's. YOu could fuck anything that walked and all you had to worry about was pregnancy, or having to get a shot to clear up the 'clap' or something similar.
Do you really think teenage kids are having more sex recently than in previous decades, or any other period in history.
YES.
I know as I was growing up, I had a LOT more sex than my parents did...and have talked to them about this now that I'm very much an adult.
I've spoken with younger people today, and parents..and even "I" get a bit shocked to hear what kids are doing today, and how much younger they start than we do.
Younger people are MUCH more loose when it comes to sex....I almost wish I could go back a few years in age but be around in this day in time...'cause you don't really even have to try that hard with women today. Young women today are MUCH more open to a casual 'hookup'....
Girls didn't dress nearly as provocatively and have as much overt sexual behavior as they have today....
Not only that, but manual transmission cars sold in the US often have the bizzare feature that the headlights go off if you put the handbrake on. How are you supposed to do a hill start in the dark, for goodness' sake?
What car(s) have you seen this behavior on???
This is the first I've every heard of this.
I didn't see it on my Vette (6speed) nor a fairly recent mazdaspeed miata....
Can you give links or cite models you've seen this on??
But, from what I understand, you aren't forced to use union labor in Finland...a company has a choice and nobody will the 'whacked' like they might down here.
Well, all DVRs (cable OR third party like TiVo) are mandated by the FCC to listen for an EAS broadcast and instantly switch over to the appropriate channel.

Don't buy the unhealthy processed stuff.
Shop around the edges of the store...not the aisles and you'll be largely in good shape. COOK....

That's gonna get repealed REALLY fast I'm thinking...
One store's weekly ads...
Cabbage = $0.39/lb
Ground beef = $1.88/lb
Potatoes = $0.79/lb

Is this an option with amazon.com?
One drawback about it...generally (with me) there is no one home during the day when deliveries are made.
How do you get around that? Do you have a stay at home wife?
No...but the walrus was Paul....
Yet another reason to try to go more cash only....
[rolls eyes]
There are always going to be 'haves' and 'have nots' in this world...that's the way of nature.
While interesting...what exactly could or should anyone do about it?
Everyone can't be rich....
Well, it is still their body, and not the govt's.
Until that case is changed...even if it is bad behavior, I don't think you can mandate someone undergo something invasive like this without their full consent.
Just make sure and don't fuck them....
So, if a guy isn't sucking dicks or getting slammed in the ass...he really doesn't seem to have much to worry about then, eh?
Kinda tells ya something, doesn't it?
It could be, that I'm a decent bit older than you are?
But hey, it doesn't kill men.....I dunno if we should mandate it on men. Then again, I don't think it should be mandated for women either, at least not without parental consent to opt in.
Geez, it was so much easier growing up prior to the early 80's. YOu could fuck anything that walked and all you had to worry about was pregnancy, or having to get a shot to clear up the 'clap' or something similar.
Nowdays...you fuck...you die??
YES.
I know as I was growing up, I had a LOT more sex than my parents did...and have talked to them about this now that I'm very much an adult.
I've spoken with younger people today, and parents..and even "I" get a bit shocked to hear what kids are doing today, and how much younger they start than we do.

Girls didn't dress nearly as provocatively and have as much overt sexual behavior as they have today....
Well...having to shift DOES kinda help keep one awake and more alert when driving home after drinking a few....
What car(s) have you seen this behavior on???
This is the first I've every heard of this.
I didn't see it on my Vette (6speed) nor a fairly recent mazdaspeed miata....
Can you give links or cite models you've seen this on??
But, from what I understand, you aren't forced to use union labor in Finland...a company has a choice and nobody will the 'whacked' like they might down here.
Time to switch back to MythTV?
