    Hearing Aids

    My first hearing aids from Costco are 3 years old, but not happy with them. I'd like to order new ones online. Can I ask where you purchased your wife's? Thanks, Pappy

    Toaster Oven Suggestions

    I had a toaster oven once, didn't really use it and, since the counter space was more valuable to me, I donated it. Now I need one as a gift and have no idea about features and brands. I bet a lot of you have them, so what better place to ask than here, no? Looking for a toaster oven for a...

    Well that was no fun.

    Aw, Ike, I feel bad for you and can relate. My expieriences have been very similar. Now after two missed attempts they go for the doctor. Last month was much better. I had a new tech draw my blood and needed 4 tubes. I'm inwardly groaning, knowing how unlikely he is to get this on the first...

    News Media Question from a 23 year old coworker

    His question and observation expressed to me--being the wise old soul I am :rolleyes:--was: "Why aren't "news" shows focused on subjects that are both factual, truthful and informative to their the public?

    I've Never Texted or Tweeted...Am I Alone?

    I got my first smartphone (Samsung Note 3) a few years not too long before I started my current job. We have several local locatons, so use texting to contact each other for work related things.
