Jim Bauer @porwest (102310) • United States 29 Jun

For several years now, almost ritualistically, I have had a routine of drinking coffee in the morning, water throughout the day, and beer in the evening. But recently, while having a conversation with my wife's cousin, Larry, he...

Lena Kovadlo I hope there’s no crap in this. When I looked at the ingredients for Gator Aide I said no way am I drinking that.

Spaghetti Is Always Good Eats

Jim Bauer @porwest (102310) • United States 26 Jun

Spaghetti is one of those dishes that hits our household menu at least once a month. It just never fails to satisfy, and I think it's relatively cheap to make as well and goes quite far providing for more than just one meal from a...

Lena Kovadlo Why do you add tomato sauce? Don’t the diced tomatoes have that already? Or is that liquid not considered tomato sauce? I love pasta! On occasion I may use Rao’s pasta sauce but honestly, and I know it’s a sin lol, I love pasta with ketchup. I sometimes put...

Gravel guy called yesterday. I wasn't quite sure if he said he or his son would come out today (6/26) to measure my flower bed for mulch or landscape rock. I imagine it will be his son since I don't think he's back to work yet....

Walmart Can Do Better

Jim Bauer @porwest (102310) • United States 25 Jun

Did you know that a Walmart Supercenter, which are most Walmart stores anymore, keep roughly 2000 carts at each store? That's a lot of carts. So, it makes you wonder, when you go to your local Walmart, and the cart corrals are...

Lena Kovadlo It doesn’t take much time or effort to bring the cart to the shopping cart storage thing in the parking lot or back to the store. And yet some shoppers don’t wanna bother. They just leave them wherever they want, sometimes blocking parking spaces with the...

Oh, Hell No...

Jim Bauer @porwest (102310) • United States 24 Jun

There are things that look or seem easy in concept. All sorts of things get sold that are supposed to make something easy harder. No, that was not a typo. I said that on purpose. Of course, that's not how things are...

Lena Kovadlo And why do you have to crack an egg to make it hard boiled? Does it come out looking like an actual egg or is it more like a scramble? My mom bought a gadget into which you insert an egg into a slot (I think six in total), add the required...

Lena Kovadlo It’s high 90s here. I’m staying indoors. The living room (2nd floor) is cool but upstairs where the master bath and two rooms are located is hot. The central AC is set to 74. Even if I set it a few degrees lower it won’t really do anything upstairs so keeping...

That Seems Worse...

Jim Bauer @porwest (102310) • United States 24 Jun

Several years ago, someone I went to high school with, who I was friends with on Facebook had passed away, and considering his lifestyle (he was gay), I always assumed he probably committed suicide. He'd had a string of bad...

Lena Kovadlo Are you saying the guy doing the weeds doesn’t know a weed from a plant? It sucks that it’s so expensive to unclog a toilet. Highway robbery as they call it. Hopefully it won’t get clogged again any time soon.

I'll Take $480,000 for $800,000 Please

Jim Bauer @porwest (102310) • United States 22 Jun

I like to play the bigger lotteries like our state lottery that has a current jackpot of $10,550,000 and the Powerball which has a current jackpot of $128,000,000, but the little twice a day daily draw that starts off at $100,000...

Lena Kovadlo I’m glad my supermarkets have digital coupons that are applied automatically. No need to deal with paper coupons and scanning them. Not sure if I’ve ever had a coupon lady in front of me but I’ve had people that take forever to pay.

Lena Kovadlo Where’s the picture of the cookies? I wanna see them. Oh wait! You did share a pic of the package in your other discussion. I prefer when chocolate chip cookies are chewy as opposed to crunchy. Sucks yours weren’t good.
