Does nobody use portable digital music players like the iPod or Walkman anymore?I bought one a couple of years ago as a gift, a Sony Walkman, and it never got gifted (a whole other story), so in cleaning things out I found it, brand new in its box. Originally I bought it for a little over $400 and put it out on local social...See More »
Did you go out for dinner last night? I had a hankering for some good Mexican food so went to my favorite Mexican restaurant and started off with what they call "Guacamole Mexicana" and tortilla chips... which they make themselves, and had to end up taking the fajitas home in a doggie...See More »
Who do you admire… like as your heroes?@DrWatson posted something about astronauts that got me to remembering heroes I've known and respected. Mine are probably unusual people to most and aren’t by any means famous, not in a traditional sense. They are the pilots of helicopter...See More »

Life sometimes gives us hope...Trump was found guilty... again. A fine of $83.3 million was levied. Made my Friday and helped me start out Saturday with a smile.
Corporate and investor greed strikes againHere we go again. Cable came about and became popular because it gave the consumer variety, NO commercials and you could get it rather inexpensively.

I'm going to shamelessly ask for you help...I, and @foldedunfolding (and many others) support what we believe to be one of the most worthwhile organizations in the world... Charity Water. I've lived in places where potable water was scarce and know for a fact their work is saving lives... if...See More »
What are the SW days of the week designations?Tuesday we all know, and I think Wednesday is "Witchy Wednesday", but what about the other days of the week? My preference is Witchy Wednesday... it's fascinating to see what our resident witches choose to post.
For the Nerd impaired (like me)I just noticed that my default messaging service on my phone is set to track locations when sending a message. I don't send anything I care about being tracked, but it made me uncomfortable. You might want to check yours and block tracking.
Need advice on my kitty againShe is such a drama queen. If I even walk in the direction of her food bowl or the kitchen, she is all over me meowing and circling my feet wanting food. I feed her regularly and as recommended for her weight. Is this a cat thing? Constantly...See More »
Do all cats think they are attack Ninjas? Mine certainly does... there I was, minding my own business when suddenly I felt this sharp stabbing pain in my side! I yelped, jumped up and saw this flash of black and white streak out around me to hide in the printer stand. She had silently...See More »

Espresso fans - what's your pleasure? I may have turned into a coffee fanatic. For the last week or so I've been experimenting with different espresso/steamed milk recipes and have decided the best is a steamed milk macchiato (double shot espresso size). What's your favorite?
Happy or content: Which would you rather be?I would submit: Happiness can only be achieved in the here and now, in the moment, so to speak, and is forever a fleeting emotion, often momentarily felt by achieving a goal. Conversely, contentment is a constant, a sense and feeling of...See More »
What have you learned today?It’s just 8:30 in the morning, and SW has greatly Illuminated my word already… nestled in among the information flowing freely on SW, you (at a minimum) will find out or be questioned about: • Finding pirate booty in our ears; • Connecting the dots...See More »
Can you help me make sense of this?The right has limited the chance for millions of women to have an abortion, but now wants to severely cut (or eliminate), aid for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). If I understand what I've read, the right says you have no choice, you will carry...See More »
