    Accidentally locked yourself out

    I locked myself out of my car once. Had to call a locksmith to open it (car insurance covered the cost). Since then, I've always carried a spare car door key in my wallet.

    Every Where I Drive See Road Kill

    Given the large amount of wildlife in this area, we see surprisingly little roadkill. This has puzzled me. I know that scavengers, primarily crows & vultures, make short work of the squirrels but we also have a lot of deer, bear, moose, porcupines, weasels, bobcats . . . . It's rare to find...

    Questions regarding golden years!

    Welcome to the forums @Srlife. The simple answer is probably "no", there is no EASY way. You can, however accept the change with as much dignity and grace as you can muster. A positive attitude and faith in the Lord both make a big difference.

    Chrysler Turbine Car Failure

    In the early '60s my best friend's mother had a chance to drive one of those. At the time she was a city official in a city north of Detroit. He primary comment was that it was extremely quiet when running.

    Chrysler Turbine Car Failure

    The Stanley Steamer ran on kerosene. Much like the old steam locomotives ran on coal.

    Has The Trees Turned Where You're At?

    Fall colors typically peak around Columbus Day weekend in central New Hampshire and this year is no exception. It isn't one of those "stunning" autumns - the colors are somewhat muted due to the unusually dry weather - but still rather pretty. (Having lived in the far north for most of my...

    Shopping for aids for seniors to get up from the floor

    I notice that product description says it isn't for use on fiberglass tubs. Just something to be aware of.

    Woman killed over not saying 'thank you'

    Ding,ding, ding!!!! We have a winner! (y) A far as I can tell, ALL of the popular media have given up the concept of professional ethics. They are definitely a significant part of today's social problems. :mad:

    Light meals that still feel satisfying?

    You might offer them a healthy preprandial drink such as 6-8 oz of cranberry juice over ice with a slice of lime. Drinking liquids before meals tends to make people feel fuller sooner. Plain water is best, but if it's tasty and attractive they might be more likely to accept it. (Cranberry...

    @hawkdon, you can get a SD card/USB adapter from Amazon for around $10. That's what I use for my Browning gamer camera. Works well for me.

    Is it theft or only a bad system?

    We rarely sere that problem where we shop. Many years ago I was living in Michigan when grocery stores shifted to shelf pricing/scanning. The law there at the time was that is an item scanned for a higher price than what was shown on the shelf, then the store had to refund you the cost of the...

    Do the old rules still apply?

    If a person owns their home (i.e., no mortgage) then I was thinking that their only "housing expenses" would be taxes and insurance. But shouldn't that also include repair and upkeep? I guess when the roof needs to be replaced, the house exterior painted, or the heating system upgraded for...
