    What are you doing today?!

    Didn't hear about him retiring. Wouldn't surprise me since his son got the boot as OC... On a side note, The Michigan Lions. Hhhmmm, kinda has a ring to it...

    What are you doing today?!

    I agree. I think Oregon, Washington, USC, and UCLA are in for an eye opening, awakening when they join the Big Ten. I think they all will experience a 'Nebraska moment.' On a side note, where do you see Michigan going to. The NFC or AFC...

    What are you doing today?!

    Iowa has the number 8th best defense in the country. Unfortunately it also has the number 133rd offense, dead last. Unless someplace very, very hot decides to freeze over today, this game is over by the end of the 1st quarter. A very tepid go hawks... On a side note, I need your Noles and...

    Social security

    For us it was a matter of simple math. We both took SS at 62.5 because it was the lowest returning vehicle of our portfolio, (house and investments). SS colas return on average was 2.1% for the 25 years before, far under performing our other investments. Added to the fact that my wife had...

    Car Market is INSANE Now!

    Know how you feel. Back in early 09' during the "Great Recession", when they couldn't give new vehicles away, I remember seeing a new 09' Duramax diesel, 4WD, for $29,999 advertised at one of the new Chevy dealers. I was working then, pretty comfortable with my job security, but just couldn't...

    For those with vehicles registered in Texas

    Once your vehicle reaches 25 years old you are exempt from the emission inspection also. My 98 Buick is exempt starting this year and my 99 suburban will be exempt next year. Woohoo...

    INTJohn's Winter Truk Livin' 4 '22-'23

    Very few of us are perfect. I was a huge BLUE fan the end of last year, but it didn't work out for me. Could have been worse. Could have been a Buckeye instead of a Hawkeye, but then the colors wouldn't match up...

    Might as well buy a house!

    You can get a nice mobile in the RGV, south Texas, in an over 55 park for $60,000 to $90,000 and you own your own lot. Low HOA fees $200-$500p/y and low taxes, $500-$1,000p/y (for Texas). But it is isolated, and fairly hot for 1/2 the year, but a large area with lots of hospitals, Walmarts...

    Having been there before.....what was it like seeing it again?

    Yes, but I think it was only a couple wells on base. I was in 2nd Tanks, and not in the affected area. Then again I think the motor pool was in the area affected and that is where they filled the water buffaloes when we were out doing field exercises. It also cover the rec area where I would...

    Having been there before.....what was it like seeing it again?

    I was thinking about revisiting my old digs at Camp LeJeune sometime. Apparently, since 911, they don't issue day passes anymore to former veterans to explore on their own. Now you have to have a chaperone touring with you. Was wondering if it was worth the hassle. Did you have any problems...

    America the beautiful access pass

    America the Beautiful Pass did not cover entry fees to Waco Mammoth National Monument exhibit building. Only access to the grounds...

    24/7 Chat About Anything

    Very nice photo. Since we're showing photos, here am I with my better half. I literally couldn't live without her. One of the finest, compassionate, caring, human beings God ever put on this earth. And he gave her to me and to this day I don't know why. And she's a quasi gourmet cook. Oh...

    Obamacare, (ACA), stress test

    Medicare Part A is hospital, Part B is doctor, Part C is Advantage(HMO), Part D is drugs, and Part E is Extraterrestrial. You have to ask for Part E because they take you to another planet in an alien spacecraft to be cared for, but it's one way only. Plans A,B,D,G,K,L,M, and N are...
