    @Mik said in Dog joy: @89th said in Dog joy: Our 4 and 2 year old still do that. Balloons...cheapest entertainment evah You’ll take them to wonderful museums and parks and they’ll just want to chase the birds. It's if they come back with a squirrel in their mouth that he'll have to start worrying

    @Horace said in Size Matters. Three inches bigger is a lot.: You mean it “begs” another question. Actually in this context, it "bags" the question?

    Interesting indeed. In case anyone is wondering why they would sue the hospital system (likely hovering close to insolvency) rather than Meta (which prints money), it’s not by choice but by necessity- Meta is not subject to HIPPA rules. Only the hospital is.

    @Jolly said in Smothers Brothers: Contractors are always a problem. The papermill where I briefly worked had never had a job-related fatality among their employees. They did have two deaths among contractors. The reason they use contractors is because they're cheaper. They get what, maybe a couple of hours training? A long time ago I had to go work for a week on a North Sea oil rig. The permanent workers all had a week's worth of training and practiced getting out of a helicopter capsized in a swimming pool. All I got was a lecture on how to put on my rubber suit. I checked and luckily for me that particular oil rig didn't have a swimming pool.

    Just as an observation...Wife is helping her mom and dad lock in their funeral costs. $25k for the two of them, not including cemetery costs (headstone, plot, etc.) That represents almost a 10% increase in the last year or so. And...the person at the funeral home told them they are expecting another price increase in the next 60 days, due to rising costs on their end.
