As I've said in another post, I have an interview Monday. My wife was getting anxious about it. "What if you don't like it? What if they lie to you about how much you have to work? What if.. " I pointed out that this isn't like...

Tony Lawrence Funny that you say that. I'm LOVING the job. If I could roll out of bed and walk to it, I'd work for minimum wage - seriously.

When my wife and I were first married, we had very little money. I think our income was a little over $100 a week. Of course things were cheaper then; our rent for a large ground floor apartment was just $75 a month and a pizza...

Tony Lawrence Both my wife and I like it. It's a bit expensive - $4.00 a bottle - so we won't be drinking it often, but it is very nice,

Amazon sells a device they call "Echo". You can look it up, but it's something you talk to and it can give you news, weather, play music and more. That's all good and we love it, but I like to kid my wife about it. For example,...

You can't suggest your own discussions but you can suggest discussions made by others, to anyone. I have never used it anyway. I think that is a good idea. I think 'being suggested' is something a discussion should earn. What...

I've been using a bread machine for a few years now. We love the raisin bread I make, but when I've tried to make a plain bread for sandwiches it's always been too crumbly - breaks apart too easily. I contacted the Baker Chat...

Tony Lawrence He probably good be fined here too. In addition to choking people, he was interfering with traffic, making it harder for people to turn the corner and blocking a fire lane. But by the time you'd find a cop, he'd be gone.

Tony Lawrence @Asylum Google replicates and backs up. Google has redundant power, redundant cooling, redundant internet. You and I do not. I understand your feeling, but I really feel my photos are safer at Google than they would be here.
