  1. Interesting the dead bird app, like the truck Musk stol (invented) does not work properly when you attempt to post about his guy You have to go around your butt for a work around https://x.com/monacharen/status/1852441639446294953?s=61&t=akgNyUltuSb7RN54lulxTw

  3. I should add. Yesterday's visit to Duke was good. Everything is basically stable which is all I can ask for. I'm not on O2, exercising as prescribed 2-3 times a week and my doctors are happy. If anything they are concerned I may have lost too much weight in recent months. It was also a good chat with the head of the transplant team which put things into better perspective. To quote Monty Python "I'm not dead yet"
  4. Quick switch from housing cost to health care. Personal note, I was diagnosed with ILD (Interstitial Lung Disease) about three years ago. Was told eventually I would probably require a transplant. The doctor also prescribed a drug that run over $15,000 a month without insurance. With Medicare and additional insurance it still was running nearly $700 once I hit maximum deductions. Back in January the out of pocket price dropped to $O. if I need a transplant pre insurance costs would run a $ or more. Fortunately Medicare and private insurance would probably lower out of pocket costs to housing (6 months to a year) I doubt that would be happening under Trump and Republicans Yes, I voted my pocketbook
  5. Besides it really won't matter if Trump is elected since he has vowed to deport all those who built those new homes built in 2018-2022. Where are they going to find new labor willing to work for lower wages? We probably had about 250 new homes built in our subdivisions (multiple because of different price levels and types). They are clearing land for another 1000 or so, along with adding a new lane to the interstate (one each way) along with an additional intersection. Somebody must be supplying demand or these would be off the drawing board by now. I realize a significant number are retirees moving south, several Florida and South Carolina "halfbacks" and a number of folks from NOVA who find it easier to take the train or commute on the couple of days a week they need to be in the office. Prices aren't rising as fast as they did 2020-2022 my our house is still worth considerably more than what we paid.
  6. I can’t complain about interest rates. The new build house that we signed a contract on in September 2019 and closed in June 2020 priced in at 3.9 per cent. First time in nearly 40 years we may actually make a profit on a home. In 2019 we were probably expecting a 5-6% rate. Much better than the 18% in the late 80s under a Republican
  7. Bankers, building industry. What was the rate before COVID?
  8. Once again which party is very opposed to raising minimum wages? Which government agency is in charge of controlling prices Are you opposed to the free market
  9. Is that the government’s problem or those in charge of businesses?
  10. It may work again unfortunately. I’ve spent enough time doing volunteer customer service, information desk stuff to know that we are outnumbered by clueless people
  11. I saw a story this past week that Johnson really wanted the Bears job last year. The only one he coveted if it was open. If it’s open after the season he just might jump.
  12. That argument never worked in high school (term papers) and still doesn’t work today
  13. From what little bit I’ve seen it’s indicative of a possible stroke. That in itself is not disqualifying but throw in the occasional stumble on word pronunciation while reading the teleprompter and the constant sidetrack rambling he does…..
  14. During the 2020 Primary season the candidate I voted for dropped out just before the election. I voted in person at the registar’s office. I was allowed to revote. It may have been the circumstance or the rules have changed since then
  15. No but Bezos may be cut out completely
  16. No but Bezos may be cut out completely
  17. Wikipedia tells me near Waynesburg. Close enough
  18. Fox actually fact checking their guy

  21. They need to lock him up in Fort Ligonier where he can ramble about Arnold Palmer to his heart's content
  22. Forget filling MSG..
  23. He's got Trump and Musk wrapped around his fingers
  24. I was just realizing that we were in South Carolina when the Lions got blown out by Baltimore last year. Heading there this weekend. Apologies in advance, the one caveat is we arrived in Hilton Head then, this time we'll be in Myrtle Beach and arriving Friday
