    Who loves to watch/listen to Marching Bands?

    Our city used to have parades in which our high school marching band would play. Every year, I looked forward to hearing them play. They were sounded so good. I wish I could hear a marching band that good in person now. This is scene from the movie Drumline reminds me of how our band sounded but...

    Youtube ads are out of control!

    Someone mentioned this I think, but can't find it now. When I watch YT on my computer (using Brave browser), I don't see ads, but it takes a little longer for the video to load. When I watch on my phone and tablet, I do see ads even though Brave usually blocks ads. Most can be skipped in about 3...

    This years Rose Bowl 2026

    Only Rose Bowl I'm interested in is the parade. :) But that wasn't that enjoyable to watch because of the rain drops on the cameras.

    Baby boomers have now 'gobbled up' nearly one-third of America's wealth share

    Neither does the route we are taking now Spectrag! Wars, mass murders because "they" don't like someone's race, religion, orientation or ideology. Too much of that is happening now. I wouldn't bring a child into this world now if I was still at child bearing age. My oldest grandson will be 37...

    What Was the Last Movie You Watched?

    I saw the promo for this and wondered if it's something worth checking out. Based on your and @RambleTamble's critiques, I just may do so. I did like Enemy of the State and Alfred Hitchcock's films were always good.

    Childhood candies who else remembers .....

    Funny your first picture is of Sugar Babies. I couldn't believe I found them in Dollar Tree and my local supermarket a few months ago. I bought a box just for old time's sake. My favorite when I was young was

    Cell phones being used in vehicles while driving. Pros. Cons.

    My son has a cell phone holder on the dashboard of the car and the ability to put the caller on speaker while talking. He's a professional driver (18 wheeler) and trainer who is very safety conscious. In fact he's gotten J.B. Hunt's safe driver award about 9 years in a row. I've seen Uber and...

    Baby boomers have now 'gobbled up' nearly one-third of America's wealth share

    I sincerely hope to be able to leave my son a healthy six figure inheritance to supplement whatever he has coming in. He does have a 401K but I don't know how that's doing. I also hope there's enough $$ for my grandchildren and other loved ones to get something. SS is actually not supposed to...

    USPS Postmark Change Could Lead To Late Fees & Penalties

    I wonder if in the case of an IRS penalty for late mailing that is contested, would showing a certified mail receipt get the penalty reversed. :unsure: I never mail important documents without using the USPS certified mail option, which has to be stamped with the date. Of course, with this new...

    I'm feeling very unwell since..

    I'm so sorry you are going through this @Rose65! I know what it's like to have to euthanize a pet. We had to do it with our cat and that had to be 30 or more years ago. I still think of her almost daily. A few months ago, my youngest grandson lost his dog, who was actually an emotional support...

    A New Years Eve fire rips through a Swiss hotel bar. Dozens killed 100 injured

    What a terrible tragedy! People just out to have a good time. :( I heard a lot of them were likely young people too. I feel so sorry for their families, friends and those who were critically injured. May the deceased R.I.P. This reminds me of another fire event that happened in a club due to...
