Because by and large people are stupid and buy into the “won’t someone think of the children?!” argument.

Not to mention they think going from 4% to 5% is a 1% increase as opposed to a 25% tax increase.

We like to have a general idea of what we want to do. But also like to be spontaneous.

For instance…while driving through Idaho on our way to Montana, we made a stop at the Idaho Potato Museum because a sign on the interstate. It was great fun and my niece loved it.

We also have built in chill time. I refuse to have my vacation scheduled from wake to sleep.

No. Their job is to entertain. If someone’s going to pay them, they’re going to work.

Is anyone far sighted other than older people that need readers?

Me. I’ve had glasses for far-sightedness since 16. It was fairly mild. Just enough to give me nagging headaches.

Right now I’m a +3. After turning 50, I also needed correction for nearsightedness. Now I wear bifocals.

I also have a cane for knee issues. I’m just waiting for the hearing aid so I can hit the old lady trifecta.

It's like that in SC... you're not supposed to wear any political item of clothing at the polling station.

It’s like that in Cali, too. Political clothing, signs, campaigning, politicking within so many feet of the polling station is illegal.

I have no problem with this.

I think the quickest way to stop it is have a team of white trans join the WNBA. Start winning those games and this will go away with the quickness.

If they fight to keep them out, sue them and the financial backers of the NBA for denying their civil rights.

re: Is Sams Club worth it?

Posted by NoHoTiger on 5/26/26 at 1:33 am to Gerry Laval

We live ours and actually prefer Sam’s to Costco. We buy meat in bulk and then repackage. We have a food saver, so that makes it easy.

We also do delivery from Sam’s. It’s free with orders over a certain amount. I forget the amount, but we always hit it. Delivery helps with the impulse buying, too.
