Did you know that Five Below changed many of its store's formats to Five Beyond? Well, they did, and I did not know this until we happened to need to stop at our local one for something my wife needed for her cell...

Today is Valentine’s Day. We are not going out to eat tonight as far as I’m aware so have to figure out what to make for dinner. I was going to fry king oyster mushrooms and bake some Chinese yam in the oven. But that’s all I...

I don't get it. I truly don't. Yes he had 5 children with his ex-wife. Fine I get that. But he has now had 8 more with girlfriends. Sure he is the richest man on the planet and can pay to support them but why keep having them when...

NJ Chicaa @porwest In theory sounds great but I'm not doing the dirty with someone I'm not attracted to. Nope. I'm not a prostitute.

I had two servings of my mama's homemade beef bolognese for dinner this evening while my appetite was still there and it was absolutely delicious as usual. My mama never fails at cooking. I've failed more times than I can count....

lilacskies @porwest Beef contains a lot of protein that can give you energy even if you only eat one meal a day. We eat a lot of beef dishes in my family.

Will there ever come a day when I can only ever praise Walmart? Maybe, but I suspect probably not. Look, I like Walmart, don't get me wrong. Sure, their checkers are the slowest checkers on the planet, and their customer...

So, as you know, I made the decision on Tuesday to cancel cable to save $175 a month, which was the portion of our cable bill that covered the TV portion. Our service ended Thursday evening. After several conversations, as well...

No dollar signs on the 15th? Should we be worried? I guess we will have to wait and see, but that seems a bit unusual to say the least. Went to Ollies and got a couple of things. I was a little disappointed that they did not have...

Well, it looks like it's going to turn into a rather busy week. I have to make some banking trips to get the cash needed for our gambling trip next weekend in Kentucky, plus I do need to grab a few items on my list at Ruler Foods....

Perhaps it is one life's great debates when it comes to potato chips, which most of us enjoy eating. How do you prefer them? The crispy, thin regular ones? Or the sturdier wavy ones? For some it comes down to how they will eat...

lilacskies @porwest I love Chex Mix too. They have little, soft pretzels inside in the mix. Very delicious. You can buy those as well for around a dollar at Walmart.

lilacskies @porwest That is unfortunate. Maybe they are not available in your state. Next time you travel out of state and go somewhere with an Israeli population like the states in the east and west coasts, you will find them. They are super popular and have great...

Ptrikha_2 @porwest I do agree to the steps to protect and enhance jobs in US. However, I think that Tariff imposition could be a gradual increase. Say 6 to 12.5 and then 25 over say 6 to 9 months. This way, the other countries would get some good time for the...

I may be weird, and you can chastise me if you want. But my rich uncle Archie long ago taught me, "If you want things, use other people's money." Those were words that just stuck with me. "Keep your money and invest it in...
