Such a Simple Dish, But So Good

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 30 Jun

I wanted to use up some leftover pork steak I had. So, I decided to make an "alfredo" of sorts. Not a true one. But a play on the concept and idea of one. Me follow a recipe? Are you kidding me? I cut up some red...

You Just Can't Tell Anymore

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 4 Jun

It used to be that Saturday Night Live created numerous laughs when they introduced the "Pat" character, which part of the joke was, no one knew if Pat was a woman or a man. Could they even get away with a skit or a character...

Kareng @porwest Yeah that's true too. My husband swears she is a man.

Here's the Deal! Part 1

Kareng @kareng (77213) • United States 5 Jul

This is a follow up to my last post of "Where Did We Go?" @id_peace guessed right with Texas! I was browsing through Marketplace Tuesday night when I came across a 24 ft. Searay HT240 Sundancer. This boat is similar to the...

Kareng @porwest Exactly. That was why all this was started to begin with. Now he is going to see that boat too. It's a comedy here.

Are Ya'll Ready for Boat #5?

Kareng @kareng (77213) • United States 30 Jun

We have had this one for almost 2 weeks ago. My husband immediately fell in love with it and stated that it will be a keeper! He has plans for taking the grand kids out to Ship Island and touring a few more islands in the...

Kareng @porwest Cool! It's funny because I still remember some stock numbers of our products, namely the best selling gloves. They were the black dotted gloves to hold a grip. The stock number was BP-5501. Ha!

They Were Just Sort of Meh

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 18 Jun

Have you ever had a sudden, deep craving for something, and then you eat it and find yourself not all that impressed with it? "Well, that wasn't the excitement I thought I'd get out of it." That happened to me last night...

The "Elvis is Alive" Theory Has a Timeline

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 30 Jun

The "Pastor Bob Joyce is Elvis" story is a fascinating one regardless of where one stands on whether the pastor could even possibly be Elvis in the ongoing theory of theories that Elvis never actually died in 1977 but faked his...

Anna @porwest And this may be due to plenty of causes and not because he was substituted with a look alike.

I'm Liking Dairy Queen

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 10 Jun

And gosh, Warren Buffett will be happy about that. Did you know that Warren Buffett owns Dairy Queen? Well, now you do. Well, Berkshire Hathaway does. But Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway are practically one in the...

Kareng @porwest Oh we do not have those here at all. I was noticing the other day when we ate inside that it is mostly the older generation that eats there. Not many young ones at all.

Failure to Signal

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 7 Jul

Picture this. It was 1990 and I was 17 and still driving my first car. A 1980 powder blue Ford Fiesta I bought for $425. At the time, during the summer months, I worked for our local school district, cleaning classrooms, waxing...

The Smallest Post Office

LindaOH @LindaOHio (194018) • United States 8 Jul

The smallest Post Office in the United States is in Ochopee, Florida in the Everglades. With a total of 61 square feet, it used to be a storage unit for irrigation pipes for an adjacent tomato farm. A fire had destroyed the...

Anna @porwest It's not the safest place for sure. The biggest snakes found in the Everglades are Burmese pythons. These snakes can grow up to 20 feet long and weigh over 200 pounds.

About that AI

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 16h

It was once said that AI might one day have a mind of its own and be indiscernible from real human contact and behavior. Well, it seems that may be truer than ever as news about Grok's antisemitic comments has been floating...

After All, I Gotta Pay for Supperunch

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 28 Jun

I have a rule. Okay, it's probably not a rule. It's anal-retentiveness, or maybe even old age. I have routines, and things. If I eat something past 2 P.M., I consider my supper spoiled. Late lunches, you might call them....

Have You Ever Heard of Snot Loggers?

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 3 Jul

When I worked, of course, there was often a considerable amount of time spent in breakrooms with coworkers shooting the breeze, and of course, there was the occasional argument to be had. The conversations were the fodder of many...

Do We Really Need the Extra Electrolytes?

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 29 Jun

For several years now, almost ritualistically, I have had a routine of drinking coffee in the morning, water throughout the day, and beer in the evening. But recently, while having a conversation with my wife's cousin, Larry, he...

I'm Going to Wear My New Hat This Weekend

Jim Bauer @porwest (102878) • United States 2 Jul

Not that being a Navy veteran has anything to do with the 4th of July, but I have a couple of Navy hats I like to wear. One that I wear, usually on Veteran's Day, is my USS Enterprise (CVN-65) "official" ship's hat (similar to...
