bigmacnc Yeah, all the time. He loves baked potatoes that we have eat on, but if you bake one for him he will not eat it. He use to like hot dogs but now he prefers bologna. He is well spoiled.

bigmacnc Anyone can buy a car with very little down and extremely high interest. Also houses can be bought and you just have to pay interest and wind up owing more than they are worth. You need to look at the whole economy. I live in an area that depends on tourist and...

I am thinking where is the best place to live. A place where you can easily find a job, less crime, has high job security once you found, can work and save for your retirement. Where do you think you can find these?
