I got no idea. Maybe I'll defrost a grilled chicken thigh, reheat leftover pan fried potatoes, steam some asparagus and throw a salad on the side.

And in my county, there is no municipal trash pickup. You cart your stuff to various drop-off points. There is a large container for garbage, one for cardboard, and one for other recyclables (glass, plastics, magazines.) I guarantee that no one really knows what can and cannot be recycled (no...

It's an archive of websites taken in snapshots. I know that anyone can have a webpage archived there by using the Wayback Machine site's tools, but I'm not sure if there are instances where it archives websites/pages automatically. @Ken Anderson is more conversant in it than I am. There are...

I live at the end of a long gravel right-of-way, and as often as not, the last leg of my long driveway loses the gravel and it's dirt & mud. I gave up on "fastidious" a long time ago.

I got all sorts of crap I'll never need in my Mazda in a carrier that hangs over the back seat and is accessible from the hatch.

I've been paying more attention to fiber since I had gastro issues in April/May. It's weird for such things to crop up for me because I've been taking probiotics and prebiotics for years now. I've added Metamucil, Fibrosol-2, nuts, dates, prunes and figs to my fiber cereal breakfast. There...

I just stuck my head outside the door and saw maybe 10 or so. I recall reading that they are mostly out (or visible) between disk and midnight, so perhaps you were a little late to catch them at their evening peak. I guess it's obvious why they come out at dusk, but don't know why they are...

I've had a couple of experiences. I had disc surgery on my neck at Fairfax Hospital back in the 90s (I got in an FDA Pilot Program for a new procedure) and was kept overnight because I had been put under and they wanted to make sure my organs woke up before they discharged me. (I lied about...

I carry travel-sized hand sanitizer and paper towels (and disposable gloves) in my car & truck because I have to take my trash to drop-off points, and sometimes get funky stuff on them. I don't want that gunk getting on my steering wheel. Those Wet Naps always seem to dry out before they get used.

That's interesting. I had no idea that bots performed a sort of Nielsen Ratings for goods, services and businesses in general. I posted about Meta because its AI is used for Instagram's customer service function and did some real stupid stuff (like changing emails and passwords for non-account...

Maybe I'll get some to carry in my car. I carry a roll of T.P. just in case, but have never needed to use it. The only time I've used wipes is during a colonoscopy prep, and I throw them in the trash. There are brands of toilet paper that are bad for your sewer and septic systems (here's...

That's what I was referring to when I said "other government drop-off centers." Our sheriff's department takes prescription drugs to keep them off of the streets. They don't care about Bayer aspirin and Robitussin cough syrup. I figured my way is cleaner than doing what I was told to do and...

Friggin' Texans. Even the fish have attitudes.

Same here.

I went through this with meds a while ago and I literally just got done cleaning out a closet of this kind of stuff (old insect repellents, etc.) The only things you can drop off at drug stores, government drug drop-off centers, etc, are pharmaceuticals. The drop-off kiosks at drug stores can...

The only reason I would want any of my relatives here is so I could have the pleasure of putting them on Ignore.

Temps are still climbing here and it will get as hot tomorrow (103°F plus close to another 110°F day for the humidity factor.) Then a brief thunderstorm moves in. I was listening to Fox News on the radio and they were talking about the festivities in DC and said that temps may break a record...

I just got a text from a realtor asking if I would like to sell my property. She referenced the address of the place I sold in 2010. Who here thinks I should text her back and tell her that I'm retired, and she can drop by anytime to talk about it?

I've got leftover grilled steak that I'll cut up & reheat with sauteed mushrooms. I also froze a serving of steamed shrimp I'll thaw & have on the side. Maybe a salad & a veggie and some leftover rice. And a Dreamsicle.
