The basics at WF's are reasonably priced. I want to hate stores, but the CEO did a good job lowering prices on certain items. 1/2 gallon milk is $2.29. Some bread is reasonable. Their store brand (nature someting) is a good de

These 18" receptacles are not on one, or two circuits, wired in parallel. Now, if every receptacle was required to be isolated, your explanation would make sense. Use to be a union 6 member. The code might now call for every receptac

It's not being charged for bags. In the states, we just have too many dubious laws. People can't bring in even a small backpack into most stores, without leaving it with the guy would could care less at the front of the store?

I've seen a steady erosion of ethics in all professions. I don't know what's causing it. Actually, I have a few hypothesis, but I'll get hammered for even mentioning them. I used to look at people's actions in soci

"Is there a 'Soul Mate' for most people? Probably not." Sadly, I think you are right. There's still a part of that believes in the Soul Mate thing, but in my case it's always been tied into looks, and my immedi

I don't know anything about this company. I have an idea what market they are trying to crack. I can't believe it's taken this long. I've always felt paying a Realtor 3% on the biggest item most of us will buy in our li

Yea, but there were more little cafes(cafes that encouraged cousomers to stay.), books stores, magazine stands, and people just outside--actually talking to each other. The only look down was maybe a quick adjustment to the Walkman. In hig

I would love to rid myself of all the hassle of a vechicle. Ironically, a week ago I had a terrible time getting my vechicle to pass smog. I literally got to the point where I considered giving the vechicle up. I wasn't having a gre

Yea, but you can't live in your annunity fund. With a home, can rent it out. You can use it to start a home business. You can help out family members in need. You can work on your vechicle on the driveway. (Just read a housing r

When did being a war profiteer become acceptable? And I know most of you don't think it as a necessary war. All I remember from Blackwater is open expense accounts, jet skis, the best hotels, the best of everything. Why--because the

I told my mom it's time for you to look for a new vechicle. I've always worked on her vechicles. I mentioned maybe a Subaru? A few weeks went by, and through an email she said she wanted a new F-150. She, is I belive in her 70&
