    Forum member seriously injured

    Best wishes Hollydolly. Accidents will happen though, as long as you folks over there keep driving on the wrong side of the road. ;)

    Classic and simple radio

    I only listen to two talk radio stations on the FM band. Everything else is today's music and is painful to listen to. Spanish radio has appeared too so times have changed.

    Do you enjoy boating in small crafts?

    I had a 12' aluminum boat with electric motor. Had many memorable outings. Later got a kayak which wasn't very comfortable and a little tippy.

    If I was a parent, I would like the affair to be over as quickly as possible and the plea deal will do that.

    We sometimes went for "evening" drives up the mountain to cool off on hot summer days, only to return to heat in the valley.

    If you really want to be safe, get a handrail for those steps.

    How do you invest your money?

    I never invested really. I just saved getting bank interest. Now it's about spending and I probably don't have enough time left to spend it all.

    $8k car insurance quote, what to do?

    8K for what? Could be full coverage. All you want is the minimum to drive legally. Shop around.

    The U.S. has bombed 3 Iran Nuke sites

    This is Iran's Pearl Harbor and will only strengthen its resolve to fight back much like the U.S. did in WW2.

    I Hate Gardening -- Do you?

    I use Roundup to kill weeds so no pulling. If you accidentally get it on the grass, the grass will eventually grow back.

    Does anyone remember milk chutes?🤔

    The milkman left the milk on the porch and picked up the empties which clanckety clanked against each other as he went back to the truck.

    Are You Living or Just Existing?

    I guess you could define living as doing what you enjoy every day, but age takes some of that away which leaves you with existing sometimes, but the next lower state is dead, so existing isn't all that bad after all.

    Do you have stairs where you live?

    Front and back entrances have 3 steps with handrails which I use. Basement has 12 steps with a handrail. It takes some forethought when bringing up laundry but it's doable.
