I never try to get too much into the math, but the amount of concrete required for X is staggering in general, even at small scale. Recently built a foundation for my deck, what was estimated on the concrete tube for pillars was nowhere nea

If it has a 1 month curing time, I would assume weather would affect outside structures more often as well.

I remember attending most of my middle school (6th & 7th grade) in "modules". Which is really just a fancy term for a trailer. There were probably 5-10 of them adjacent to the parking lot. It's how they handled the fact t

It's really hard to talk about swing. It's much easier to show . Also, "tightness" plays a major role in whether someone can swing well or not. How well their swing matches up to someone else's.

Could they not erect schools fast enough? Surely the funding was there?

There are a slew of people out there who can keep a healthy relationship with someone much easier than keep a job. I'd venture to say that most people find benefit in finding a life partner. Hence why they keep doing it (even multiple

Ah, the old "if it's happening here, it must be happening everywhere ". The thing I like most about the US, is it's diversity across all fronts.

Nice, we use our kids. Perhaps that's why we had three (parallel processing, FTW). Not sure on cost comparison, though :)

I've seen it fragment and specialize. And I'm okay with that. For instance with musicians - particularly guitarists (only because we tend to be gear enthusiasts) - Reverb.com has become our new Ebay.com. It's even replacing C

I'm in agreement with you mostly; it's just the un-accounted for "oh-shit" moments. Like real "oh-shit" moments, though. A lot of comments in here relating to health care; that's a good example.

I'm sure the largest generation in retirement entering late-life doesn't help with the situation. Provides ripe opportunity for jacking up health care costs on age 50+ ailments/treatments.

FWIW, they'll have to coordinate this after a new job since there isn't one at all providing for the household, which may or may not be easily attainable considering the FT care provider situation (and assuming the worst as far as

It seems easy - and everyone balks about it - but hardly anyone considers what a major medical event can do to your health, your esteem, your loved ones, and your financial situation; all in one fell swoop.

I'm pretty certain you can't recycle waxed butcher paper.

That's true now that I think of it. Mom and pop's don't have that laundry service budget.

This was also common in Slave America, too.

Why? So a pint of cantaloupe can cost $14? In the US, consumption of prepackaged fruit and veggies are rare enough that I'd be willing to bet the waste created from these (all the ones I've seen are recyclable containers, BTW) is

I can't think of one sit-down restaurant that doesn't use cloth napkins. Napkins as coasters; now that's a different problem.

AS far as I know, meat MUST be labeled, which kind of necessitates a container for the label to affix to.

Amazon's Fire TV devices have this, as well.

All hail general-ism! It works well for most things. Around the house, I generally have an idea of how to fix things. I only know enough to know when I should call an expert. It saves a ton of money. I'd like to consider myself a gen

Sure there is, scale it yourself. I like Misouri Wind and Solar ( https://mwands.com ). I've also looked into Wholesale Solar ( https://www.wholesalesolar.com/ ) which focuses on DIY installation and design.
