We never change our clocks where we are. However, we have to keep track for friends on @ coast! It is a pain in the rear!

"I think there's this very strange phenomenon in Silicon Valley where a lot of the most uh talented start startups — a lot of the great startups — seem to be run by people who are suffering from a mild form of Asperger's, and I think I think we need to always turn this fact around and view this as an indictment of our whole society because what does it say about our society when anyone who does not suffer from Asperger's — who is socially well adapted — will be talked out of all of their original creative ideas before they are even fully formed, who will sense this is a little bit too weird, that's a little bit strange, that sounds a little bit crazy — people are looking at me in a weird way, and I think this is something that we must all realize is is sort of the deeply endemic problem." ~Peter Theil

Just bought a game for my granddaughter and I to play on our Switches. Thankfully I played it before she got into it. Let's see, it has a gay couple getting married, a character who is a they/them, a lesbian and who knows what else. Took the game off before my daughter had a stroke.

All that is fine. I don't have a problem with anyone or everyone being represented in a game, but THERE WAS NO WARNING! I don't want to have to explain all that to my granddaughter years before she needs to know any of it, because a GAME brought it up!

Gonna stick to Farm Together! LOL Just the 2 of us, on our farms, growing things & feeding animals!

I usually get "Dave." I don't even bother anymore. I don't have the patience. Either my poor husband or daughter has to suffer through. I just go ballistic and nothing gets done.

I saw something that made me do a double take. If bird flu is so bad, WHY aren't ducks, blue jays, sparrows, owls, etc? Why just domestic food sources and humans? Even my bluest relatives stop and go, "uhhhhhhhhh!"

Coming west of the Rockies was the best move we ever made! (But not so far as to land in Hell/Cali)

Moved from WNY to just outside DC. Blizzard of '85 I had to pick up some meds. Made it out to the main road, down to the store. Cops inside asked if I could use my "4WD" vehicle to transport hospital personnel. I laughed my ass off as I got back into my manual tranny, Chevy Beretta, dropped it in low and headed home. I learned to drive in the Southern Tier!

Mad shopping at the mere mention of a storm drove me NUTS when I lived there. Always had powdered milk, stuff to make bread, and plenty of tp ALL the time! Not to mention firewood and propane cookers if needed.

Thanks! I had my daughter watch it and just by the voices she knew! LOL I am deaf, so I have to rely on captions. Unfortunately I miss a LOT of the good stuff, but my daughter is pretty good about getting stuff across to me, when I don't get it!

Is it sad that I can't tell if this is a spoof or it really happened???

Wish my step-dad was alive to see this! I think he was a "conspiracist" long before conspiracies were a thing He literally made us boil dishes before washing them (I would have killed for a dishwasher back then!), and even with that, we had our own cups and silverware, and God help you if you used anyone else's! Every time there was a news report on HIV/AIDS he would rant for weeks about the government using it to control population (as well as cancer). He was convinced the government was trying to kill us all. We thought he was nuts...... Look where we are today. So sorry, dad!

As Shalimar said above: Generac generators! My in-laws live in a 5 bdr house, fully rigged with gennies, efficient AC, and being Mormon, they have enough food for all of us for like a year!

Wish I could upvote MORE! I eat plenty of plants... right on the plate next to my beef, pork and chicken! Oh, and with REAL butter, never could get a taste for "margarine." Funny when people come over to eat, not ONE person complains about real butter (or meat for that matter!).

2 parents and their 6 teenager-ish kids were on vacation in Fla. One got caught in the rip, and the parents went to save them. The kid got free, but couldn't help the parents. They both drowned. So sad, heartbreaking for those poor kids, for their families.
