That makes you sound like a poster boy for anarchism.

Wife plays golf three times a week and I golf twice a week. We both golf in a couples Saturday group which also is followed by lunch. I run the men's Tuesday golf group which usually averages four foursomes and is followed by a group lunch. Wife plays mah Jong 2 to 3 times a week with friends...

Looks to be a good deal for seniors. I will be paying less taxes for at least the next 4 years. Who knows what will happen after 2028.

I got my first Black Friday deal a few days ago. Stars for 12 months for $1 per month. Total was actually $13.18 including tax. That's a good deal as wife wants to watch the last season of Outlander which is only available on Stars.

l like going to the local Costco. Hard to beat the $1.50 footlong hotdog with fountain drink. The rotisserie chicken is a good deal as well. I went last Friday and purchased a new pair of glasses and new lenses for my sunglasses. I am positive I saved much more than the $65 membership fee. I...

I have a hankering for Ice Cream! Haven't had any since June 5th.
