Love Buddy's voice. Heard him live a few times with Emmylou and by himself at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass. Not many can sing country and memphis soul both. (Chris Stapleton is another.)

I'm not an ortho, so not an expert. It certainly is done, at least in Korea. Given the high incidence of non-compliance, maybe not going to the doctor is just as good--or bad. Again, it depends on...

This. There are broken fingers and then there are broken fingers. There are also tendon injuries which are treated differently depending on which tendon. Unlike toes, broken fingers are not usually...

It's been a few years since I've been in Europe but the last time they were still asking for a signature even though I have a chip and PIN card and a PIN. I'll have to ask my wife if that's changed...

I got mildly off route going over Castle Pass on a fine sunny day. I did manage to get myself straightened out pretty quickly by backtracking but I had to run to catch up to my friend who had gone...

While getting your heart rate up while exercising is a good way to test your heart (under controlled, monitored conditions) whether getting your heart rate up to 180 is not a sign of fitness or that...

If I hadn't made some unbelievably dumb routefinding mistakes myself I might have a hard time figuring out how someone could wind up there descending Shirley Canyon. It's funny the tricks your mind...

Thanks for the info. Getting into that trouble on the way down I can understand. What's the Sluiceway?

It seems like the test might be useful for someone who needs documentation in order to qualify for disability payments and for convincing a skeptical world that long covid exists. Hard to see how the...

What's the sound of one hand clapping?
Boom!

(Sorry).

The position the GOP is taking in the NC case is that the right of the state legislature to do whatever it wants re elections is absolute--not subject to restriction or oversight by the state...

I once saw two guys who tried to trim a hedge with a power lawn mower and cut off all 16 of their non-thumb fingers. Inebriation was involved.

FIFY

Two women had to be rescued off of Tram Face. The article says they got lost hiking Shirley Canyon. Sounds a little dubious although I suppose it is possible to be that dumb. Maybe they were...

Point taken. I knew as I wrote what I wrote that I was probably wrong. Living here with the mess going on it's hard to remember or understand that other countries still look up to us.

For the most part this is true, but why can't I get Google to stop loading sites as plain text. I've tried every solution that the internet suggests. The problem goes away when I reboot, then...

There was a Golden Age of household appliances. Now we're in the Dark Ages. Maybe time for the economists to stop referring to them as "durable goods".

My kid spent a lot of time skiing Charleston last winter although I don't think he would be doing big multiple drop lines--not by himself. I think he ran into a total of one person there. Was last...

I like the respect I get when I plonk down my Wells Fargo visa card in France--and salespeople go nuts over the picture of the stagecoach. You know how the PBS crowd goes nuts over everything English...

I don't give a fuck how history will see it. I'll be dead. I give a fuck about what's happening to my country now and what, if anything, can be done to stop it.
And I certainly don't care how the...

Agree--I hate instruction videos for the most part. The ones companies produce are sometimes OK--the one about how to lubricate a Saw Stop table saw is excellent. Amateur videos are uniformly...

A lot of people are arguing about format. Because they have nothing else to argue about. Except for the two poll workers and perhaps the Capitol Policewoman and filmmaker the witnesses have all...

If you're moving it boxed you can rent a pallet jack to move it on and off the truck. If it is boxed somet hing like that may well be attached to a pallet.
I assume you're too far from the store...

In reference to the thread title, CR still likes Bosch. It looks like their review dates back to Jan 2022. (They don't test Asko btw.)

The point of the hearings, like all public hearings, is to inform the public. As such they are designed to convey information understandably, not to present a legal case. (Notice how much of...

It was a rhetorical question.

We've had good luck with 2 Asko dishwashers. Both around 20 years old. One of them doesn't shut down when you open the door while it's running but other than that...

The election case SCOTUS is hearing next year has the potential to make everything that Trump et al tried to do legal. The Constitution says that state legislatures determine "the time, place and...

I'm really annoyed that the contestants have to answer in the form of a question but Mayim doesn't. My recollection is that Alex did and Ken does. Am I wrong?

What's rinse aid.

This is why I don't zip up my fly.

When I was a resident the psych ward called me to see a schizophrenic patient they had just admitted with a rubber band wrapped very tightly around his penis,...

Easy to buy from street vendors. And if you wear one people speak to you in Dutch.
It's been a few years but the figure I remember is 3 million people in Amsterdam that day, in a city of about...

Good suggestion on the photo. Some of my favorite possessions are pictures of my kids, especially pictures of them doing things on trips they did with me.

oldest in age or longest in tenure--I assume you mean the latter.

How can you say that about Koningsdag--a more civilized somewhat more sober and no less fun than a combination of Mardi Gras and the 4th of July. You gotta love a country where the tell people to...

The way Trump hoped it would play out is that the certification would have been stopped, Pence would have reversed himself declared that there was too much doubt in the 5 close states and would have...

A timing belt tensioner in an apartment sounds more suspicious to me than a bomb. Like, where's the rest of the car.? Where are the people that were in the car? Get the dogs and start digging up...

Yep. We stayed 11. It wasn't too long. Lots of day trips by train. If you can be there on April 27 for King's Day you will not regret it--it's a fabulous party. (You wouldn't want to be there on...

If we want to argue semantics I think coup is a more appropriate word. An insurrection connotes a violent effort by a significant force--like what happened in Iraq after Saddam was kicked out. A...

I swear my dog can find them in the house.



Just remind him about the Marquis de Lafayette--if it weren't for that Frenchman we'd be using the metric system, spelling it "colour" and have an...

If you get a chance to see Paul Thorn do it. And don't worry, it's not christian rock. (And there aren't a lot of outlaw country rock musicians who've gone 6 rounds with Roberto...

I don't know about that, but I did have a kindergarten teacher who taught us to say the pledge of allegiance without the words "under god". I don't remember exactly what she said but she did tell us...

One thing the hearings have pointed out to me is that are still some honorable, admirable people in the Republican Party. "Very fine people on both sides".
Also, the extent to which our democracy...

Morans, you moran.

Is Northeast Kingdom anything like the State of Jefferson?

Look for Cassidy Hutchinson working in an Omaha Cinnabon with a name tag that says Jennifer.

72 in a month--but no respect due. The only skill required to get old is staying alive--although I've had 4 very close calls.

I'm 71. All I want from my kids is time with them--in person or on the phone. Alternatively, give him something you want to inherit.

I agree with Buzzworthy. ER. Where do you live? What kind of insurance to you have and is it employer provided or self purchased?

I have to say that skiing a 200 ft manmade hill in jeans, leather lace up boots, wooden skis, cable bindings--with my friends in HS , (especially with Sharon Schmidt), meeting girls from other HS's...

Why would anyone prefer a round bowl?
