Re: Watched first episode of The Ark last night... - 5 weeks ago

If you really want to see something bad watch CBS's 'Fire Country', bad acting, bad actors, bad writing, bad plot, bad CGI, etc. and sadly my wife likes it and I have no idea why. I'd say it's the worst show I've seen in 20-30 years.

Re: Burt Bacharach RIP - 5 weeks ago

Bummer! RIP! OT: You should've heard how badly CBS anchor Norah O'Donnell messed up his name, she said something Bach A Rock instead of Back A Rack. Undoubtedly someone straightened out during the segment because she got right the next two times she said his name. I don't know how she's kept her job, she can't get through an entire newscast without fouling up 3-4 times. I've just always been a

Nice! Sadly NC does collect tax on services I believe. What items are subject to use tax? North Carolina use tax is due to be paid by individuals and businesses if the seller fails to collect the applicable sales tax on the following items: Tangible personal property purchased, leased or rented inside or outside this State for storage, use, or consumption in this State. This includes

Re: Humpty Dumpty had a great fall?!……wholesale egg prices coming down….. - 6 weeks ago

QuotepRICE cUBE I felt that the egg prices were pure gouging and have stopped buying eggs completely. I think I read somewhere that some major egg companies scored some sizable profits. Maybe they will see their long term profits not be so large if people will continue to reduce their overall egg consumption. Majority of all these price increases is gouging. Been watching Ryobi tools nearly d

Re: Bivalent booster may not have been all that... - 2 months ago

Quotemattkime At this point if you even die from a car crash you can assume there's an antivaxxer counting you as a vaccine related death. Hopefully they'll soon grow bored and find new hobbies. The one that gets me is the Covid deniers that if their relative dies with Covid, not from Covid, they get us taxpayers to pay for the funeral. I know of one such case, they died of old age but because

Re: Anyone understand the new car market right now? - 2 months ago

At some point you gotta start thinking someone for some reason is controlling the supply. We know a guy that’s #2 at one of the largest Toyota dealerships in the SE and he says they’re not going back to the old way of selling. They keep very little inventory, you come in and order what you want and wait months. He said there’s no more haggling, you pay the price or it goes to the next p
