Hello all. I live in a tiny, one room apartment in the middle of NYC. I would LOVE to be able to grow some veggies or flowers or something. I have one window sill that I can put planters on but that's about it. I'm looking for...

bayernfan How much room do you have? The size of the planter will be an important consideration when making a decision about what vegetables to grow. Pretty much any vegetable that grows in a garden can be cultivated in a pot too. Tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, green...

bayernfan Cinemas do a better job of combating against this than they did several years back. It got pretty bad about a decade ago. Of course it was dependent upon what the film was and, therefore, who was likely to attend the show. When the film is playing is a major...

bayernfan Well, drawing people into a discussion by pushing their buttons can be an effective tactic. I am not sure how much myLot rewards members for doing this though. The initial post from the OP doesn't have to be worthwhile for the rest of the discussion to be good...

bayernfan Yes, I have walked out of a store due to poor service. You and your father are more patient than I. I won't bother with a run around, instead I'll forgo a purchase or look elsewhere. If prices aren't clearly marked, then I am likely to take a pass. I like to...
