While l agree the monument at Arlington should be left as is, the tariff was on imported goods. That was to protect northern manufacturing from cheaper British goods. The south didn’t like it because they had to pay more for goods and had trouble selling cotton overseas. Don’t kid yourself, the...

I’m still wondering how you got 20” of snow in Florida given that global warming is rampant. 😉😁

I’ve watched many Bonanzas but I never realized Hoss died while the show was in production. I never saw one without Hoss or with the red headed kid.

I seem to remember hearing about the dust bowl back in the 30s. Pretty drastic as I recall. Of course if it happened now Greta and the rest of the apostles would be calling it the end of civilization.

Christmas dinner will be similar to Kevin’s. Picked up a spiral sliced ham that I’ll cut up and of course mashed potatoes. Not sure about the sides. I’ll leave that to wife and daughters when they come. There’s bound to be some pies and other goodies.

And then when she says it’s time to go home she gets into a long conversation with her sister(s). I usually plan on at least another 45 minutes 🙂

Three daughters here so I got very used to it. I remember once we wanted to leave at a certain time and 5 minutes before one decided to take a shower. 🤪 No sense of time. We still kid her about it. And she still is usually running late to this day. It’s not my problem anymore. 🙂

Interesting. I guess the chrysanthemum would indicate Japanese origin.

How knew the subject of coffee mugs would be so volatile?😁

I’m watching it too. The only thing is I don’t care who wins. i often root for the underdog but a team going undefeated is special too. I just enjoy a good football game on occasion. So far so good. 🏈😎

The mug I used in the office was black ceramic so the dried coffee in the bottom and sides didn’t show. 🙂 Not that I didn’t rinse it out from time to time. I only drank black coffee back then so it was only staining. Now that I use a bit of cream in it I rinse it out all the time or put it in...
