    Deposits. Haven't I seen this somewhere before?

    Brisket prices: CRAZY!!

    I have a large iron smoker/grill out back and every once in a while pick up a brisket. I grill a lot of chicken and burgers but of course a brisket takes more time and attention. I saw briskets for sale at the local grocery store, and I could not believe the prices. I'm used to waiting until...

    OSX Yosemite

    Lured by the promise of more powerful performance I got the free upgrade to OS X Yosemite and it is a nightmare. I don't know a lot of fancy computer stuff, and multiple times a day I'm being told that Safari can't find the server of a particular site. Then, a minute later, it will go through...

    New Year's, and resolving disputes

    Those who have engaged in transactions that have left the other party feeling dissatisfied or downright scammed are often called out to make amends. But sometimes Bad Guy threads can get fairly complex, and it is not clear what exactly it would take to settle so that the aggrieved party is...

    Fondue ideas?

    The kids have a few different places to visit on Christmas Day, I'm going to be the first visit. Likely they will be eating lunch and dinner at other visits so I thought I might do a fondue. Anyone have experience doing a fondue brunch?

    Amazon.com shipping

    This year I picked up a 3 foot tall potted Norfolk pine as my Christmas tree (they put 2-3 in there so it is nice and full) and I put it up on a stand and decorated it. Then I saw a LED tree over on Amazon.com and decided to get it also. The LED tree is supposed to arrive today. I live near...
