LooeyVille You are correct on both. We were originally supposed to take a cruise that went to BOTH Iceland AND Greenland but then COVID struck so that got cancelled. Then two years ago we took the ill-fated cruise that got redirected by a hurricane and never made it to...

My political views differ from several of my girlfriends' views. We choose to not talk politics for the most part. But when we do, it's not with emotion but with facts and principles. Sadly, some people online are vehemently...

LooeyVille You can see the tide turning just since he won the election. DEI initiatives are going away in major companies. Celebrities aren't afraid to say they're conversative. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. No matter how you feel about Trump the man, his...

I have tried becoming a vegtarian (not a vegan) several times in the past. It never works for more than a month. I start craving a hamburger like mad, and a veggie burger just isn't going to do it. I do think vegetarinism is...

LooeyVille @snowy22315 I'm not disagreeing that some medical experts tout a vegetarian diet as healthy. It's just not for me.

Yesterday I rummaged through my Mason Jar full of foreign coins from my travels and a few paper bills were in there and I wondered if my bank would take them in for trade for US Dollars. Sure enough, they did. Like I said, it...

LooeyVille @porwest I don't really "want" to do individual stocks. I'd rather do mutual funds and index funds, but every once in a while I'll do a one-off individual stock. I'll look it up later. I've got some money sitting in Money Market that I need to invest.

LooeyVille I only ate 9 of them. Wanted to know what they tasted like. I'm still on the wagon actively losing weight. Haven't been to the gym yet this year though due to travel and illness.

LooeyVille I really enjoyed Bucharest. By far my favorite on the river cruise from Budapest to Bucharest. Very quaint. Very old-school in a way.
