It's kinda funny as I'm deferring SSA for 18 months to claim the maximum I can receive - so it makes sense that the program should go bankrupt fairly soon after that.

@Doctor-Phibes said in Hey vinyl people.: What a stupid pillock I WAS. FIFY What a nice guy I am.

That's why I say it's not up to white America. We can't fix diddly - but we can, and are, perpetuating the problem.

Ok, here's what I do. Mostly, anyway. Angi.com is getting worse since it was sold. I go to Angi.com and find my contractor. it may take a few clicks to actually get to the list, then you can select reviews for the ones you are interested. No one under 4.6 stars, and the more reviews the better. I read the reviews and select a few I want to look at. Then I go to the local BBB website and look them up. They have complaints, years in business, whether they are BBB accredited or not and for how many years. I've never been disappointed in anyone I hired that way. The worst way is FB. This is when you discover that your neighbors are drooling idiots who wouldn't know a good contractor from a bad one. There are so many scam artists out there.

That oughta be fun.

Well, I’m sure all the EV dealers will figure it out for you.

I took Bupropion to help me quit smoking. It worked well, but it sure made me feel weird. The idea of taking it all the time isn't very appealing, however I guess people do for depression. It presumably beats the alternative feeling.

Do municipalities used to get tax revenues from local TV/radio stations? Maybe there is an argument to tax Internet streaming services in that they provide like services in the municipalities much like local TV/radio stations.

Or may be it can be misled to shoot at friendly pilots.

The only diversity I would tolerate is admittance based on hand/eye coordination and grades.

@George-K said in Medical Questionnaire: "Why did God make babies so cute?" "Because you'd kill them if they weren't." This is literally true, at least for values of God equal to evolution.

@Catseye3 said in How to screw up your life - 101: I'm curious if the NFL will draft Carter in spite of this. Don't see why they wouldn't -- innocent til proven guilty -- but I don't know the NFL protocol for this kind of thing. That's why I referenced Collins.

@Axtremus said in It's a shame it wasn't heard by more people...: For those wondering whether it would worth your while to play the video … It’s an anti-vaccine mandate speech concerning certain law enforcement government jobs. BTW, that's only partially true. In fact, a good bit of his rant is about fiscal policy. So, did what you said be considered a half-truth or a half-lie?
