Pat Z Anthony @PatZAnthony (14749) • Charlotte, North Carolina 8 Mar 22

The photo here was used by me when I wrote complaining about the outrageous price of apples in a certain store. Now we see things are higher everywhere. Not just food, but of course fuel and anything else you need on a regular...

Pat Z Anthony @PatZAnthony (14749) • Charlotte, North Carolina 27 Feb 22

Some do not think they should do anything considered work on what they feel is their sabbath. No one here has to answer to me. Each person had to know what is right for them. Then I think, this is entertainment, not really...

Why do we love two-dollar bills so much?

Pat Z Anthony @PatZAnthony (14749) • Charlotte, North Carolina 11 Jan 22

Some may ask what a $2 bill is worth and be surprised they are worth just that: $2. We get these at our local bank on a regular basis and use them as tips or gifts for young people. Some respond in shock because they thought...

No, I don't have flowers in my hair today, but noticed so many things blooming that the trimming had to begin outside earlier this month. We have many flowers growing that were planted by the original owner of our home. He must...

Amazon and more deliver to your door

Pat Z Anthony @PatZAnthony (14749) • Charlotte, North Carolina 30 Jan 21

Businesses such as Amazon and others that deliver right to our door are getting us spoiled. When the virus we are all concerned about leaves town (and we are hoping it is under control soon) we might continue to use the delivery...

More fake money seen in our town

Pat Z Anthony @PatZAnthony (14749) • Charlotte, North Carolina 12 Jan 21

Not just our town, but many places seem to be seeing an increase in counterfeit money. As hard as most of us work for what we earn, we don't want to be scammed by being given money that is worthless. This is not something that...

While driving to places we had to go, we noticed many areas of the city are empty. Closed stores. Hardly any other cars. Parking spaces empty. Wow! It is almost spooky to realize how many people are staying home unless they...

Sunshine and fresh air: Can these help kill germs, viruses and more?

Pat Z Anthony @PatZAnthony (14749) • Charlotte, North Carolina 19 Mar 20

How could it really be 100 degrees in October?

Pat Z Anthony @PatZAnthony (14749) • Charlotte, North Carolina 4 Oct 19

It seems odd to us that we had a fairly mild summer, yet yesterday the bank registered 100 degrees on their sign. Yes, it felt it too. We don't mind the hot weather, but know soon winter will be here and that we are not happy...
