Maybe look at the facts of the cost, if you care about that. Illegals in this country reproduce and their offspring reproduce. These people are then citizens elgible for services. This amounts to billions, billions that could have been spent on needy americans and other things. ATM, those undocumen...

Given Trump, there is no honest position anywhere on the Republican spectrum. At this point, people who still claim to be any type of Republican are part of the problem and are at least complicitous. Rational people can't use the label any more. Not all Republicans are racist but most racists are R...

But often is it the "truth" or someone's "opinion"?

With all due respect, then how will you ever learn about or have an opportunity to ponder others' points of view? If you all talk and agree with one another, how can there be debate or discussion? Why do I need to "learn" about other points of view from highly opinionated people who often...

you may choose to believe they are being ignorant, etc but they, more than likely, feel the same about you. And that's exactly the feedback I get when I talk to pro-Trump voters. The term "educated idiots", and similar, come up often. So you lower yourself to the opposing view's level? Ju...

Problem is that we have no way to know which "facts" are true, partly true, or false, so believe based upon our beliefs. That's what creationists say and they are 1,000 percent wrong also. Next. In your opinion, they are wrong. Why is it that people with an opposing view need to "lis...

Given how working class Republicans can be played or just know they are voting against their own interests, Or, the working class Republicans, like most (I suspect, but a guess on my part not based on documented fact) are one issue voters and there is much the President says that appeals to their o...

If you're speaking of real estate, it's a bad idea, speaking from experience. Why? In real estate, the buyer's agent is supposed to support the buyer's best interests, not the seller's. I've used a buyer's agent in the past and found them to be helpful when I did not have the time or inclination to...

Why on earth are we resurrecting a post I made almost 10 months ago?

Me too because sometimes you just can't believe that a person won't do the right thing. I used to "assume" that people would do the right thing, but I am long over that now. Rockabilly, you do know that 'assume' is an acronym, don't you?? :) It makes an *ss out of you and me :lol: Unfortu...

Thanks all! Yes exvet I guess ya gotta kiss a few toads... I’m going to try another trainer who I am pretty sure has no working students to palm me off on. :lol: Perhaps also suggest auditing a lesson first to see if their "style" matches what you are looking for? As well as asking if the...

My printer (got it on sale at Staples) will scan to at least my computer (that's where I load everything to). I just looked, it will scan to email, network folder, Sharepoint or computer.

Many recipes need altitude adjustment. Baking often needs moisture... I made fudge once (at about 7'k feet) using a candy thermometer. I went from soft ball to cement in about 3 seconds as the temps need altitude adjustment. Ruined my nice pan. Heat canning, make adjustments. Bread may get dryer and...

WheresMyWhite

Mountaineer, what's your altitude? Remember that water boils at a lower temp at higher altitudes so I would not be surprised you need to adjust time and/or liquid. Evidently the Ultra series of the Instant Pot has an altitude adjustment. Otherwise, maybe check out some of the sites on cooking with p...

NBC has one, NBCSN has what looks like recaps of the live events on Olympic channel...

The cowboy channel was a few down from 624 (Olympic) on DirecTV.

I'm a sports nerd for some of the non-mainstream sports... NASCAR, bicycle road racing, horse racing as background entertainment

WheresMyWhite

Depending on what events you want to watch, NBCSN (some), NBC (one, show jumping final IIRC) and the Olympic NBC channel (many, live) are also carrying WEG events (like 60+ hours). IIRC, on something like the Cowboy channel (?), I saw the FEI Reining events. NBC* is doing dressage, eventing, vaultin...

What is sad is that we find ourselves in a position to be reaching lower for people to look up to... rather than looking up for people to look up to.

Musical Comedy, thank you. IMO, at the time other of his, or anyone's death, one should exercise some amount of discretion.

I'm with the rest. MYOB unless the BO asks for your opinion/feedback. For all you know, maybe S has changed (highly unlikely :) ).

Mountaineer, glad you and all your "flock" are safe! Wildland fires are scary as they can burn so hot and fast. Good that you had defensible space as that can often make the different to the firefighters if they will defend your property or not. You are correct, LE cannot make you leave bu...

Try going native. Check with your local native plant society or google 'native blooming perennials' for your part of the state to find a plant that is already adapted to your climate, altitude, amount of sun, etc. Then track down a nursery who carries native perennial plants. No fertilizer, no gues...

WheresMyWhite

Fertilizer?

It is often recommended to fertilize plants in containers because the water as it runs through the contain tends to wash the micronutrients out with it.

Same variety of geraniums?

FWIW, check into Uber or Lyft.

Don't know if the cost would be discounted but often venues have a concentrated drop-off/pickup point and might be easier than having to beg/borrow/steal a vehicle and less than a taxi...

My thoughts are with you as you work through this decision.

I don't believe the Duggar parents have a show any longer but some of the offspring do.

I just can't bring myself to watch that show. Watched the parent show once and that was more than enough for me.

If you want to play a bit more, try planting sedums. I had really good success with mine on a north facing front yard at about 6000'

Surprisingly winter hardy.

OP, you did a great job!! You also mastered the trick of not planting too many small plants but rather planting a few small plants and letting them grow to their natural size. :) I lived in Colorado for a number of years and my last front yard I did the same thing... bark mulch, drip line, a few sma...

FWIW, one can test all one wants and it still rarely finds "everything". For sure, a good test suite is very important but duplicating what real users do can be hard although there are tools (which, yes, cost $$) which can be used to capture what real users do for test playback. You aren't...
