Dalene Shapiro @Rondout50 (252) • Kingston, New York 19 Jan 16

DudeBaker I used to be pretty heavy into the thrift store flip game, but it's very labor intensive. I've cut back a lot to focus on other things. If you have the time to invest into hunting the valuable items and listing them online, it's a pretty good source of extra...

DudeBaker I've considered relocating to Florida because I experience physical aches and pains during the cold winter months. During winter, I typically set my thermostat at 65 or 66 during the day, and turn it down to 62 at night. We utilize space heaters where...

What are Bernie Sanders chances to win the Presidential nomination?

Paul Kuehn @pauliek (287) • Udon Thani, Thailand 15 Jan 16

Most people are focusing on the Presidential nominee from the Republican Party. However, is it true that Hillary Clinton is the anointed one of the Democratic Party and Bernie Sanders has no chance to wrest the nomination away...
