  1. Just finishing an addition to our house, including master suite. Most interior doorways are double pocket doors; exterior doorways are French patio doors or double width sliders. Like 40 Rod, I've had too many dimensional challenges trying to get to the ambulance. LL
  2. YouTube TV is running all of the old Raymond Burr Perry Mason episodes. Neat to see all the old cars - Caddies, T-Birds, Sunliners, suicide door Lincolns, etc. And I love Paul Drake's car phone, corded handset and all. LL
  3. The fifteenth ad clip, for the sonic blaster, features Kurt Russell (at about age 12), later the star of Tombstone and Bone Tomahawk, and son of Bing Russell, one of the travelling salesmen in the early scenes of The Magnificent Seven. Seems like everything and everyone has a connection to Western cinema and TV. LL
  4. From Wiki: As an organic solvent, turpentine’s vapour can irritate the skin and eyes, damage the lungs and respiratory system, as well as the central nervous system when inhaled, and cause damage to the renal system when ingested, among other things.[29] Ingestion can cause burning sensations, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, confusion, convulsions, diarrhea, tachycardia, unconsciousness, respiratory failure,[30] and chemical pneumonia. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has set the legal limit (permissible exposure limit) for turpentine exposure in the workplace as 100 ppm (560 mg/m3) over an 8-hour workday. The same threshold was adopted by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) as the recommended exposure limit (REL). At levels of 800 ppm (4480 mg/m3), turpentine is immediately dangerous to life and health.[31]
  5. My wife and I attended the same private college for undergrad, and both worked year-round to pay our tuition as incurred. No loan balances after graduation. I went on to law school, and ended up needing a loan the last semester; the price of tuition was accelerating faster than any jobs we had. Still, we paid them off within 2 years of graduation. The big difference is the artificially inflated cost of college. My freshman year tuition (1970-71) was about $1200; you could earn enough over the summer to pay that bill and still cover some living and commuting expenses. Today, that same school charges $45,000 per year. How does a kid earn that much while still in school? My High School guidance counselor suggested, based on aptitude testing, that I become a plumber; maybe I should have listened. LL
  6. The key is in the model of the car - Highlander - in the movie and TV series of the same name, it was a catch phrase - "There can be only one". The immortals would fight until there was only one left. LL
  7. Another graduate of the Joe Biden School of Ballistics... LL
  8. I lost you. Housing that was acceptable to house workers becomes unacceptable when used for illegals? Giving folks quarters, at no cost, that were perfectly fine for seamen and then for workers are now "inhumane" when provided to non-workers? LL
  9. It's difficult to mow the grass without pulling the safety bar back.....
  10. and you thought pineapple on pizza was bad....ack! Gag me with a spoon!! LL
  11. Ah, but the package says "Limited Edition"!!!!! LL
  12. I know; I was checking out the dogs, too..... LL
  13. And https://www.thespruceeats.com/grape-pie-5085537 LL
  14. Per Merriam Webster: : toast drenched with milk, cream, or melted butter LL
  15. It was kind of Mother Nature to paint the target area red..... LL
  16. We do something similar here; but we put it in a paper bag on the dog owner's doorstep, light it on fire, ring the doorbell, and run like hell. LL
  17. Or, "Doo-bee-doo-bee-doo......Frank Sinatra" LL
