Tipping is kind of a controversial topic in some venues. People have differing opinions on the subject, some reasoning that the perfect tip amount is 30%, while others prefer 20%, 15%, or even !0%. I tend to tip at 20% in...

Kristie Benjamin That's awesome. I think some people try to show off, and go to extremes, like 40% or something like that.

I remember the first time I suffered sleep paralysis, I was very young but it lasted about 10 minutes before I could get out of the bed. I thought within myself, what could have been the reason for this? Have you ever experienced...

Kristie Benjamin I had sleep paralysis only once in my life so far, and glad of it. I didn't see anything weird or unusual as some people have reported in their own personal experiences. I just woke up from a nap and found myself unable to move any part of my body except for...

I was worried about my cacti with all these problems (the fire and the colonoscopy). I confess I took care of Luna but not of my plants. But cacti are not much interested in water. Only a small amount will suffice and they had...

So where I live the temperature keeps going up and down. One day it's 30 degrees and the next it's tee short and shorts weather. The day after that another ice age begins and ends by noon. Welcome to the wild and wooly midwest....

Kristie Benjamin Glad to hear it. I have different perspectives on the whole global warming business, but you are so right about those temp extremes.

Kristie Benjamin Well, I would like a few milion dollars. LOL. Just kidding. I think one of those four wheel, two seater bikes would be cool to have, especially in good weather. Unfortunately, they are very expensive and probably not as practical as I think. It might help with...

Kristie Benjamin I had one but I'm pretty sure it died of root rot, so yup, overwatering for the win. I do keep a lot of succulents though and they seem to do all rigght.

So now eggs are so expensive there are entrepreneurs out there who are renting out laying hens to people who can't afford to buy eggs. As goofy as that sounds, it's definitely a thing. At the same time, we can go in the store and...

Kristie Benjamin True, unless purchased from a small farm. They have to spend a lot on upkeep, feed and such.

Kristie Benjamin I don't know, but I guess after 6 months of renting them you can keep them. Not sure, but that sounds like it's pretty expensive too.

Kristie Benjamin They aren't killing just hens though. All chickens can get avian flu, so if both hens and roosters are getting destroyed, where is all this chicken meat coming from? Besides, the big egg farms don't even keep roosters, only hens.

Kristie Benjamin Same. I make jokes that we are actually eating the chickens they destroyed on the bird flu witch hunts. Seriously, what else can we think?

Kristie Benjamin @porwest. Yup, and now we have to spend an arm and a leg to buy eggs while the chicken itself is under a dollar a pound. At least it is where I'm from. What are they feeding us, the chickens they destroyed with bird flu? LOL

Kristie Benjamin That's a pretty cool gift and generous too. Enjoy it and your new games as well. What types of games do you like? I often play simple matching games and sometimes word games too.
