    I got a DENIED the other day...

    I never put my SSN on the 4473 and it's never taken more than a couple minutes for it to come back approved Perhaps I'm lucky and none of my namesakes are criminals. But my state did start with the 72 hour wait nonsense, so a purchase is done like a lay-a-way and you pay the the whole price...

    Fake Coins.

    Great deals on one ounce US silver eagle bullion coins on eBay - you can buy them there all day long for less than the spot price of silver! eBay doesn't seem to mind that sellers sell what can only be fake.

    Louisiana Becomes First State to Authorize Local Law Enforcement to Neutralize Dangerous Drones

    My sense is, and I might be wrong, that the FAA does not own/control the airspace right down to the surface, or 5 feet, or some other low arbitrary height, 5 miles or more from an airport. We intuitively know the FAA does not control the airspace that's between the trees in our yards. So it's a...

    WELL THE STINKY STUFF JUST HIT THE AIR CIRCULATION DEVICE IN THE MIDDLE EAST

    Iran's Khamenei has been killing Americans for 36 years - he's long overdue for a dirt nap.

    I thought that the price of using a credit/debit card was the interest payed.

    I like to us cash as much as possible at small businesses. Example: The farm stand up the street from me paid about $20K in swipe fees last year. $20K! That's a lot of $$ for a hard working farmer to absorb, I wish more people would help them and use cash.

    A Market Trifecta ( Non Political )

    To time the market you have to be right twice. It can't be done.

    Again? Toilet paper shortages?

    A 27% tariff on toilet paper won't effect the supply; what will effect the supply is people creating self fulfilling rumors that you better stock up because there's going to be a shortage.

    Won't be shopping at Cabela's anymore.

    That's exactly what George Leonard Herter would have said.

    Won't be shopping at Cabela's anymore.

    The outdoor sporting goods stores have been going down hill ever since Herter's closed.

    Yahoo Email

    I even subscribed to Yahoo's "Pro mail" that costs $5/month. I reasoned they give me a service that's valuable to me, and they deserve something for it. But still they don't give me the option to revert back to the old email. They did allow me to revert back a couple times during the past year...

    Yahoo Email

    I despise the new yahoo email format. And I've written that several times whenever they ask for comment. I'm convinced they don't care if their customers hate it.

    A very sad day for chocoholics!

    The article on lead and cadmium is from a December 2022 Consumer reports, and it uses California's maximum allowable dose levels. Is there any reason to believe California's numbers are based on any kind of actual science as opposed to someone plucking numbers out of thin air? I have no...

    Are they Nigerian, Canadian or Australian? UPDATE: post #20

    And therein lies the rub: Many people think a check has "cleared" when their bank initially makes the money available to them.

    Near Miss at Chicago Midway Airport

    That was about as close as you can get without having little bits of aluminum flying all over the place. Did the airliner's mains touch the runway? I couldn't tell, but it was a nicely done go-around, and the pilot may even be able to log a touch and go in his logbook.
