There was a time when everyone was tired of cable and then along came a company called Netflix, who eventually got into the streaming business, and it was cheap. Way cheaper than cable. So, people of course said, "That's it. I'm...

DB I cut the cord with Cable TV. I have limited TV/entertainment needs, so it works for me. I do have Netflix though. I do not get ad free to save on additional costs. I also stream on free platforms like Pluto and Tubi where I find shows of interest. But your...

Some people just aren't cut out for certain jobs. I get it. Sometimes someone is just having a bad day. But if you are a front-end person, like a cashier, part of your "professional skillset" is to be cheerful even when you are...

DB That's a great price for gas! Guess he was not voted the one with a Million Dollar Smile in H.S. Obviously, he is not looking to make a career out of working at Casey's.

I wished on them and they were not satellites (with apologies to Billy Bragg). I read that it was the peak night to look out for the Perseid meteor shower, and since I am lucky enough to be out in the middle of the Welsh...

By sending in the National Guard to help police oversee vulnerable areas in the district, Trump is bringing to light the ineptitude of the "soft on crime" policies so prevalent in many Democratic run cities. Although the Guard...

DB I have not gone to any high school reunions. Wish I had. I do enjoy getting together with cousins for family related events. I'm sure you enjoyed getting together and reminiscing.

Are people still fooled about what the Paris Accord really was? It seems so, because I have seen it mentioned here again as a chide against Trump who pulled out of it during his first term and continues to call climate change a...

DB @porwest Strange coincidence. When I answered your post, I came across an old Life Magazine article from 1988 describing the change in climate. They were predicting the same thing. Gloom and doom, saying this year was the dryest summer since the Dust Bowl,...

DB Lucky stars for you!!! I did wake up to look, but alas, no shooting stars. These events always happen so late at night/early morning, and I sleep through them. Maybe next time.

Sometimes you get an unexpected compliment of sorts. Take my brother-in-law. He's not that kind of a guy who's going to really let you know something's good, and that's not to say that my song, Sunny Days, IS good. It was...

Reading a post from @1creekgirl reminded me of when I got my first car. My dad told me if I got straight A’s through school he’d get me my own car (not new, of course). So in 1997, my dad got me a 1989 Chevy Silverado. I remember...

DB @AmbiePam Ha, ha. In my case, my dad was too much of a nervous wreck to drive with while learning. My mom was much calmer, which made the process much easier to learn.

DB @AmbiePam That is definitely something to be proud of. Being there for a loved one's time of need is admirable. I went through something similar supporting my mom until she passed. A very difficult time.
