Ah, a Baptist.

Call them anyway and act surprised, maybe a little shocked, that anybody would keep a receipt for 1/4 of a century. A little bit of acting may melt the heart of the warranty department (in this season of good will, it may happen).

I already received one of Fred's Karma Gifts. So, to all of everybody: Ya All have a Happy Thanksgiving. If you are subjecting yourselves to the open road, look out for the turkeys driving the other cars. To quote Sheldon that he never said, "They be nuts".

Looks like a test plate for different sizes of carbide hole saws and straight shank carbide drills. Things like how many can I make, actually diameter and smoothness of the cut and any damage to the carbide. A company that makes these drills has several laying around. They have been putting...

I have to take the position for the loyal opposition. I recently got stuck in the reclined position when my house lost power due to a power outage. I too have back, neck and leg strength issues, I was 15 minutes trying to get out out the recliner; picture a stranded grey-headed bull elephant...

The solution is solar panels. Might have issue making them with reactive plates and painting them with a camo pattern. Oh yea, no Chinese panels, only US manufactured panels can be used. Issue the order and we will figure it out in the field; isn't that usual way with a bureaucracy,.

My DIL keeps moving everything, no organizational sense at all. Drives me crazy. Who puts crackers in the pantry one day then the fridge the next? I get back at her by making strange sounds night and day - she thinks the house is haunted.

it is 42, of course.

TSA agents are not the brightest bulbs in the room. At Sky Harbor in Pheonix the agent wanted to confiscate the MOH from a WW II veteran because it had points and could be used as a weapon. Joseph J. Foss Medal of Honor | Snopes.com

Do not attempt to warm up Sushi. I don't know what kind it was but one of our employees did and we had to evacuate the entire 2nd floor for the day because the stench was so bad. The company Controller popped some popcorn for breakfast (around 6am) inside of a glass sound enclosure where the...

I have had some luck with using Costco Pharmacy. They price their drugs on a cost plus rate rather than a discount from suggested retail. Consumer Reports said they were cheaper than many other Pharmacies for some drugs. You don't need to be a Costco member to use their Pharmacy but they do...

Cancelling a credit card can impact your FICO score. Your available credit, percent used and payment history are factors. I trust Customer (no) service help about the same level as the IRS assistance line.

Thus the phrase, "Swingin' with da Wing" came into existence.

I use simple English words and even then I have to use the "Forgot Your Password" button way too often.

Sounds like you have some neighbors that like dogs for company. Some late evening/morning target practice, big pistols and loud shotguns, might be advisable. It helps to advertise to any nosey neighbors they you have a "welcome to my home" policy. Also, put out a few well hidden trail cameras...

You also must chant special incantations while doing the work.

I went through this too. Was "somewhat" out of it. My DI asked if I was ok and I said, "yea, I think so". Only reason I survived was a real Doc was near and heard me.

Code said each house must have a driveway. Meets code is enough for some inspectors.

I too use a CC for all of my transactions. If I see a merchant trying to charge CC fee, I just write a check. (remember those?) I also ask if they will give a discount for cash (real green paper kind), it seems that more and more are willing to do that. If they won't take a check, I just...

Dang, I may just have to stop complaining about the VA's actions. Good to see them doing some good where it belongs, with the Vets.
