I think my subconscious made me do it, lol. I noticed it later, and left it in.

OK, the beer store must have read my complaint here. I went in yesterday and found exactly what I wanted (almost) on the discount rack. Russian Imperial Stout pints in a 4 Pack for $7.99. A little too high to be considered a cheapwad find, imo, but the Russian is perfect, I must admit.

Getting dispirited by my last few trips to the discount rack at my beer store. All they have lately is overpriced 4-packs. Used to have cases of 24 12 oz cans or bottles of the 'good stuff' imo (heavy, hoppy, high octane) for $19.97. Haven't seen those for a month ! Sigh... Also, now I see...

I think it would be better to have a real meeting in person, but yes, sign on to the virtual. There might be something in the plan you don't like, like a dumpster being put right next to your property line. It could be legal to put the dumpster there, but just by requesting an alternative, you...

I'm not on a supplement. I'm on a medicare advantage plan. I didn't know different types of insurance affected your place in the treatment queue. When I told the receptionist my insurance, said said "Oh, good, that's one we accept!" I could have mentioned in my first post that I was...

Wow, 4 months. Seems long, but one would think that they take into consideration how fast different things spread, when scheduling appointments.

I noticed a small flesh colored bump on the tip of my nose in Dec, 2023. Receptionist said earliest I could see my derma would be in May, 2024. I told her I wanted it to be looked at as soon as possible, and she said I could get in earlier if it doubled in size or started bleeding. I thought...

Fixed my hvac system myself, avoiding who knows how much $$$ on a repairman. It was a relay. Tried to cheap out on the replacement relay. Several cheap and good relays on the market for under $10 each. Heartbreak, though. Nothing fit in properly, even though the sellers said they would. Ended...

Not sure what the old price was, but my gf and I had free tickets to a swanky hotel Sunday brunch. It was quite good, very clean historic place, marble bathrooms, nice waitresses, great prime rib, piano player. Had we paid, the price would have been $49 each ! The place was about 2/3 full. I...

Yeah, that small 'snifter' glass for high alcohol content beer started about 10 years ago. The excuse was always that they were 'protecting' you from overindulging. Very annoying.

About relays. The guys online who were helping my fix my heat and cool system were saying it might be a relay. I was skeptical, but yep, it was the relay. I had time, being retired, so I was able to carefully take things apart, and replace the relay in the air handler and get the fan motor...

4-pack of craft beer pints, in cans, at beer store a few days ago, $23.00. Luckily for me they have a discount shelf where I can get decent craft beer for 40% off, due to it nearing exp date. Nothing new, though. Craft beer prices have been going insane for 10 years already, lol. Plenty...

Nice job! Beautiful fence.

Update: it worked! I transferred a photo from my phone to my computer. It is the 'Best Buy Essentials' brand.

Went to BestBuy to shell out the big bucks. The BestBuy website said the cable was USB-A to USB-C and was a 'charge-and-sync' cable. Got to the store, and the cable was there but now it is just called 'charging' cable. No mention of data-sync on the box. Reviews online say it does good data...
