What did you have for breakfast on this partly sunny and cool Friday? And a deep question: What's the difference between partly sunny and partly cloudy?

The Horse @TheHorse (219316) • Walnut Creek, California 17 Feb 23

I had corned beef hash and a sunny side up egg this morning. I added some fresh onion and serrano pepper to the hash. It was tasty. Outside, I see hazy sunshine. I am not sure if it's going to be "mostly sunny" or "mostly cloudy"...

oldbuddy Your Egg Photo caught my eye, because I hear so many people whining about the cost of eggs now days. I always thought the simple solution is if you can't afford 'em, don't eat 'em. So when I was browsing on another forum this morning, I saw a thread with at...

What do you think about sleeping in the afternoon after 4 PM?

Meli @astutimeliana723 (4667) • Indonesia 17 Feb 23

Hello everyone, good afternoon. Yesterday afternoon I had to sleep at 4 PM, because of a migraine headache. After a long time, I woke up but didn't know whether it was night or morning. I asked my mother to make sure...

oldbuddy I am retired with noplace to go and all day to get there, so I sleep whenever the droopy eyes hit me no, matter what time the clock says it is. Then if I wake up at 2 AM and go play on the computer until 5 AM (the same day) it's obvious that I am going to fall...

oldbuddy I found that if it's a product or service you can give away free and it still pays both you and the new affiliate you sign up, it increases your chance of success significantly. I know that sounds crazy, but there are many opportunities online now that do just...

oldbuddy Not to that extent, but my ex wife left me for another man and started a live-in (we call it shaking up) relationship and went through several severe beatings before she wised up. There is usually no bonding of spirits in that kind of relationship, so physical...

The Crypto Chaos

Jim Bauer @porwest (92033) • United States 23 Nov 22

Is it just me, or does the entire world of crypto currency look like a complete imploding disaster? It's not necessarily surprising. It is simply interesting to watch, especially considering that crypto is doing now what...

oldbuddy I see discussions all over the Internet about not understanding it, so it's best to avoid it and I don't agree. I earn it free, invest it wisely and reap major increases no matter what the price is doing. That price means nothing to me, unless I sell some part...

oldbuddy It makes me feel happy to read that you are happy, so that makes it worth it for me too. I don't worry about the payout, since I lost my PayPal account years ago, but I make enough money online already so it's worth it to be here just for the fun and friends.

The whistling killer

Shasta @cupkitties (7421) • United States 8 Sep 15

oldbuddy Don't you think perspective changes as you move into a new decade? I know mine sure did when I hit the 80's and I'm not sure if I want to test the 90's or God forbid the 100's.

Would you ever turn down FREE books?

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (44644) • Staten Island, New York 22 Oct 18

oldbuddy The monetary cost of a book is minor, compared to the time invested in reading it. I get offered free books all day long every day that I turn down. Usually it's because I sense a pitch coming somewhere down the line and since I don't read for pure pleasure,...

PaintsOnSlate @PainsOnSlate (21852) • Canada 14 Oct 18

oldbuddy Don't stop when you finish looking for beads, I talked to an old online friend last week that told me she hadn't been around much because she had been busy cruising garage sales and made over $10,000 this summer fixing stuff up and reselling it.

Why Are Eggs a Breakfast-Food (and not so-much an all-day food)?

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @mythociate (21432) • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 14 Oct 18

Time for a new phone?

dismalgrin @dismalgrin (2604) • United States 14 Oct 18
