re: When is too old to watch TikTok?

No age is appropriate for Tik-Tok
From what I saw, he proved nothing of value beyond poking at Pascal.
His argument boils down to arguing to God that he resisted even the weakest level of faith in God.
I pray for this man, but a hardening of that depth might well grieve the Holy Spirit.
OTOH, it would be a solid display for this man to repent.
Hope springs eternal.

Sitting on the back porch watching the sun set while keeping an eye on the hummingbirds drinking their nectar and other birds feasting on sunflower seeds.

How’s your evening?
Very similar.
But add some flowers along with the nectar for the hummingbirds.
Then add suet and dried worms beside the seed feeders.
We also see raccoons near the stream in the back yard.
Enjoying seeing God's creatures in the yards from our sunroom.

Sunscreen for everyone.

I do not understand how soaking that part of the body in sketchy chemicals is a good idea.
Why not just use wide brimmed hats and long sleeves to better protect your skin?

We had a friend who was buying through Supreme at Hammond, so we gave them an opportunity at the same time. Was a pretty good experience.

But the best answer is to do your on-line research on the vehicles and reviews of dealers in advance.

The more that you can inform yourself before showing up, the better position you will be in when negotiating.

And never be afraid to walk away from shady BS. You are looking for a decent deal on a good car - not a best friend forever.
I am a one and done drinker.

If I were to have any more, I would Uber or call someone for a ride.

I would not want to endanger others nor would I want to get a DWI. Both good reasons to not do a foolish thing.
A preacher was just telling me about pulling into a driveway when he noticed a family was on the porch and playing banjos while handling firearms and calling to their pigs.
Decided to stop sharing the Word and start burning gas out of there.
Might that have been y'all?
I had an elbow problem from doing some blacksmithing work. (uncoiling large springs)
I was given a strap and my wife ordered another for me. A doctor gave me Diclofenac sodium topical gel which is some nasty stuff, but helped.
I kept using, but not abusing the elbow. Mostly stretching and light use.
Good luck, I remember that pain.

Nope.

I accept that they are all BSC and figure that it is just an odd part of their charm.

I would pony up more, but the antique Harley is expensive to feed in my old age.

Do you mean Almonaster, as in the boulevard?
Almonaster is the correct name in NOLA and BR, but many of the street urchins in both places have said, "ala monster." And there was a street sign in Baton Rouge which was printed, "Alamonster."

do you get a lot of antisemitism here?
I have not experienced anything of the sort here or I would not remain. Based on my contributions, everyone should quickly see that I lean to the reformed side of Christianity in my religious and moral opinions, but also recognize that Judaism is the root of our faith lineage.

If my user name causes confusion, you might note that it is Rabby rather than rabbi - which indicates neither ethnicity nor theology.
It was simply the name of my wife's pet from many years ago.
