my comment will most likely get a fair number of complaints. When I have work done on my house I don't offer the: plumber, electrician, landscaper a glass of wine. I do offer coffee, water, seltzer,etc. They are there to do a certain task. An escort is there to do a certain task. Now if after the task is complete, maybe a glass of wine on his time.

How to buy a visa gift certificate card? Any links would be greatly appreciated!

in the US they sell them in all the major grocery and drug stores

Be careful. I have heard, but cannot verify, but if any payment is sent, it can restart the clock. As @FrankR says, consult with legal council.

this is true, you don't want to do anything to reset the clock

@FrankR , if @ericwinters settles for 20¢ on the dollar, would he expect a 1099?

possibly

Thoughts on the BioBidet vs. Toto C200? Ironically I was just looking at these earlier today.

i like my TOTO

Someone told me that Medicare does not cover flu shots. Is that true? Does CVS or Walgreens give out free shots?

wrong i have never paid for any shots

i would get a set of 100% cotton solid white sheets and use bleach when washing them and don't use fabric softener. i like to feel of crisp sheets

especially if they are dried outdoors.

That is a PERFECT example! I remember those pictures he used/been using for decades. In my early 30's he used to advertise that he was in his early 20's. Today I'm 60 and he's 39? ?

I liked Ellen's series that featured the coming out story line, and not just because of that story arch. I also think she used to do a good job at having a chat show, but I think she's lost her way there -- especially after she had to start filming from home.

 

I think it's important to realize that a lot of the complaints that have surfaced about Ellen's talk show are about other staff who work there. Ellen isn't in control of everything there or present for every interaction between other people working on the show, even though the show bears her name. Her job is playing a version of herself on camera, not the daily running of the show. I assume the director of the agency at which I work has no idea of most of the daily goings on, either, unless something so out of the ordinary happens that it is discussed at all levels of management.

 

Is it actually a requirement for someone to be nice 24/7 even if that's the image they portray on TV?

sorry but on the Warner Bros lot, she is known as being nasty and rude to everyone, not just those associated with her show.

someone I know worked on the Warner Bros lot several years ago. It was common knowledge that Ellen was a total bitch to work for.

i like wednesdays "hump day".

Aren't the dates in Julian format?

 

Gman

yes, and the use by date is usually 45 days AFTER they are packaged up. the eggs could have been awaiting packaging for several days (or weeks) prior

A friend was just starting to dabble in woodworking and was confounded by the fact that 2X4's are not, in fact, 2" by 4".

they were years and years ago

Yet when he filled out the Info section earlier, he was 1 inch taller. Invariably I find that a man who describes himself as “very charming” turns out not to be.

i have the same issue with people who continue to tell us how smart they are and yet they continue to fuck up (tRump).

if was just a big ad for the new season on NBC and to promote Peacock interesting to see some stars who haven't been seen in a while but that was about it.

I just returned home after having my breakfast at one of my favorite restaurants in Monterey, CA. ...didn't like the entire experience at all. In fact, it saddened me to the point of my almost falling apart and bursting out in a geyser of tears. The ambiance was quite quiet at this once busy and rather vibrant venue, and although the food was tasty and flavorful as in the past, my sitting alone at a table that was virtually situated in the middle of the room and having folks pass by me (masked) but not being six feet apart, unnerved me and urged my paying the bill immediately after I'd finished. ...did not see any of the former personnel either which got me thinking as well as questioning. ...will return again but for pre-ordered take out until there is some semblance of normalcy.

 

Last week I visited another favorite restaurant of mine in Carmel, CA. Another patron and I were the only ones in this particular area of the restaurant throughout the entire time; thus I was all right. I felt comfortable and quite relaxed. In fact, while briefly chatting with my youngish waitperson, I found out that I have been frequenting this wonderful place since its inception of some thirty years.

 

The only thing that baffled me was the cost; I had spent twenty-one dollars for a Cajun turkey burger accompanied by a side of a very sizeable amount of steamed broccoli and separate sauce. I had a milkshake as well to the tune of $7.00 (much too high). But, all in all, I've always liked the ambiance and some of the cute men who've been my waitpersons during the time that I have been going. Am glad that that experience did not unnerve me as the one that I had earlier today (July 6, 2020).

your a great person. i will bet you tipped more than the prior-covid standard. marshall on, you will survive and you need to continue your great efforts. my personal standard tip is now 25%. I wish i could afford more but that would cut into my circle of restaurant that i try to frequent. I'm not ready to "eat in" I am very ready to eat outside and limit my eating out to those establishments that allow for outside dinning. I don't need to drink wine or alcohol so where I live I have more choices. I try to "eat" out 2-3 times a week to support the people: who work, own, supply these establishments.

In Cambridge, Massachusetts there is a beautiful cemetery, The Mount Auburn Cemetery. Wonderful place to walk and look at the outstanding horticultural specimens.

Looks a like he has a more feminine personality. No judgement, just not generally my type. Is this the case? His build is totally up my alley. Anyone met with him?

OMG, he has one big piece of meat.

I was watching Some Good News with John Krasinski. His wife, Emily Blunt, usually makes an appearance. They are married, live together, and have children. Both are famous and I assume very wealthy Hollywood elite.

 

When two famous and wealthy people live together how do they decide who pays the electric bill, who pays the school tuition, and other everyday expenses? The answer is probably that every such couple handles it differently but I thought I'd ask anyway.

 

Thanks.

many have business managers who take care of such things

The head of the team who painted my house about 10 years ago was a very furry little otter who often worked shirtless. I'd leave them coffee and doughnuts/etc, and bought a six-pack for the last day. Unfortunately, the team lead was gone by that time, and the owners of the company met with me to settle up.

 

I have a couple friends who have many stories about hooking up with the cable guy, etc, but it's never happened to me.

i had a cable guy show up one day with his fly down. i regret that i didn't offer to help zip him up

i make a ground turkey meatloaf and use stuffing mix as the filler adding in: onions and carrots.

while not a memorial day trip, i am giving serious consideration to taking the train from the east coast to the west coast, then on to northwest Canada and a trip east bound in Canada. If I get my own compartment I think I would feel safer than getting packed in on a plane

i have a GM product with OnStar. It keeps track of my driving and will report it to my insurance company (if I allow it) to get a discount on my insurance.

For the youngsters here: My grandmother’s house which was built in the early’30’s had a “milk door.” She had a milkman who delivered milk and dairy products and placed the products in the compartment which had a second door that opened into the house. AND the milkman picked up the empty glass bottles and took them back!! Recycling long before it became fashionable.?

 

In addition to the milkman, here in Kansas City, I remember the Manor Bakery delivering bread and other baked goods. My grandmother had a man who delivered eggs, too. I think they all used that “milk door” compartment which (as I recall) was about 15” wide, 15” high and 20” deep. The inside door had a lock so a burglar could not get into the house using that as an entry.

just recently a local dairy has started up delivering milk and eggs to my area. growing up we had had delivery from: a milkman, bakery truck and fish man

I have a neighbor and pseudo-friend who is elderly and disabled. She owns her co-op apt here, has IRA and SS income. She spends tons of money on PeaPod and Instcart, and has other friends and acquaintances bringing her stuff...

 

Last night she emails me she signed up for the NYC food delivery service which delivers food to the "needy", and she will be receiving her first delivery this Sunday. I read her email, in fact read it twice, and then said to myself WTF ??? It made me feel some kind of way. It angered me.... So I emailed her and told her so, and asked her HOW she could take resources from those people that really NEED it and cant afford it ? She writes me back and says she doesn't agree with my assessment, and that she doesn't feel she is robbing anything from anyone. She says she cant go shopping, and is uncomfortable asking people to get her things. Plus, the PeaPod deliveries are so erratic, and she often doesn't get what she wants, or it takes too long, and with the NYC service she can get groceries (you cant choose your items, it fixed) every 2 days....

 

I am still angry and disgusted. Do you guys think she is misguided and just doesn't get the point or just a selfish bitch, which I am leaning towards.?

 

If there was a way to report her, I WOULD......

she appears to be very selfish but there is a great deal of that running around lately
