A fully mature adult writes about whatever strikes his fancy. Saturday, June 27, 2015. The Confederacy's Place in History. Displayed just what I was feeling, but struggling to put into words. His post follows.). But symbols aren't history, when raised to the top of flagpoles around the country, or splashed across automobile bumpers. Despite claims to the contrary, they are rallying points that serve only to keep sick. Not something to honor. Allegiance to what, though? Is it pride in relatives who served...

gabbygeezer: Buying a Bargain Burger
http://gabbygeezer.blogspot.com/2015/06/buying-bargain-burger.html
A fully mature adult writes about whatever strikes his fancy. Tuesday, June 16, 2015. Buying a Bargain Burger. Can you get a first-class burger (with fries) in a nicely maintained restaurant with good service for a third off the menu price? Yes you can. But you need the right qualifications and a proper alignment of incentives to pull it off. How America gets fat (but yuummm). Varieties of hamburgers on the menu. But recently everything aligned so amazingly well, I just had to go for one. A like Applebys...

gabbygeezer: July 2015
http://gabbygeezer.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
A fully mature adult writes about whatever strikes his fancy. Friday, July 24, 2015. Members of my family shared a belief that unexpectedly finding money made the discovery date "your lucky day." Thus, I was pleased to spot a penny in the parking lot of my dentist's office when I opened the car door. Why not, I thought. I was there merely to have a final cap placed over what had been a troublesome. Not all pennies are lucky. The original assistant asked. I heard a muffled conversation in the hallway, and...

A fully mature adult writes about whatever strikes his fancy. Thursday, March 18, 2010. Hoods in Our Hood. When I was a youth, we country bumpkins who lived on the edge of “the great north woods” in central Wisconsin had a special relationship with city slickers from Chicago. They liked to visit us to escape the sultry summer heat of the big city. We liked their money. As a form of payback, we took satisfaction in keeping quiet, other than snickering a bit, about the line of tourists fishing from the Fou...

Indeed, there are indications that police forces in many parts of the.

A fully mature adult writes about whatever strikes his fancy. Saturday, January 24, 2015. We're not very high-tech folks, so when computer glitches or complex updates baffle us it's nice to be able to let experts deal with the problems. We buy a Geek Squad service package for that purpose, and it has served us well. Help available electronically only. But we come here for service because we don't like doing walk-through fixes on the phone. Can't we just leave it here as usual? I've noticed some young cle...
