  1. My "lawn" looks like the course at Augusta National also, but more like the rough and the sand traps
  2. Just wanted all of you to know this important piece of information. Sure glad I don't live in one of those California worst places to live... People who live in Naples already know it. But every now and then it's good to get a reminder that the popular Southwest Florida city, known for everything from great golf to great health care, is a fantastic place to live. According to Schoolaroo, a nonprofit educational research company and scholarship website engine, Naples is the No. 1 place to live in the United States. https://www.naplesnews.com/story/news/local/2023/03/02/naples-florida-chosen-best-place-to-live-by-schoolaroo-data-analysis/69946895007/
  3. So what exactly were they doing?
  4. Let me fill you in on the best US airport: https://www.travellens.co/usa-airport-report/ https://www.news-press.com/story/news/local/2023/02/16/rsw-in-fort-myers-takes-no-1-overall-ranking-for-u-s-airports/69898764007/ Right here in my backyard, well not literally, but 20-25 minutes away door to door. RSW Southwest Florida International Crowned Best Airport With a Rating of 8.06 /10
  5. Glad you got the job done. Saved me the LONG drive just to come and install it for free....
  6. OK, on my way. Wait a minute, where am I going to? I remember our first car club trip to Kerrville, Headed from FL on I-10. It was getting late and we wanted to stop, get something to eat, and find a place for the night. Got to Beaumont and didn't see any place that suited my wife to eat, so I said "we'll just stop in the next town". Little did I know the next "town" was Houston.
  7. I'd probably get lost on the way.... so many little hick towns in TX. Don't really know my way around much of TX, just San Antonio and the hill country.
  8. It's not a difficult job at all. Replaced mine last year and didn't have help.
  9. Thanks. I have a spare pre-owned toilet seat at home since I just installed a brand new one.
  10. I think I would call that a NOT Many (2+2) out of Many
  11. So you are a middle aged woman... Same age as my daughter.
  12. Other than the acceleration, I was not impressed. I have a friend that has the 3 performance and we took a ride over to Miami a while back. Did not ride well as it is too stiff. Rear seating is horrible. Too upright and minimal foot room. Certainly not a luxury vehicle but you pay a luxury car price.
  13. I was not big on wifi connected anything, but two years ago I added a connected thermostat to my place in the Keys. It has been great. When I am headed down I lower the temp to a nice temp so that when I arrive it is comfortable. Also am able to monitor humidity when I am not there to be sure the dehumidifier is doing it's job.
  14. Doesn't that always seem to be the solution to poorly performing schools? Throw more money at them. And how often does that solve the problem? I remember visiting my then fiance in Russia. She was a teacher of Russian grammar, a must do well subject if you were to go on to university. Spent a day in her class room. Reminded me of when I went to school in the 60's, but not even that fancy. Very little money spent at that school, but the teachers were tough and demanding AND respected by the students. I often tell the story of me visiting her class room where she was teaching "middle school" students. She was giving a written dictation exam. Although it was all in Russian I was observing from the back of the room. As she dictated and the students were writing, she was walking up and down the isles looking over students shoulders to see how they were doing. I noticed she stopped at one student and repeated the dictation with emphasis to this one student who was obviously having difficulty. He didn't get it so she took her notes and rolled them up and wacked him over the head with all her might. WOW. That got my attention and I gasped. I told her after that if she had done that in the US she would lose her job and might have gone to jail. She laughed and told me that was nothing. She said when they act up in class she sticks them in the closet for the entire class period. Seems that she must consider me as one of her students...
  15. Roasted almonds. Seriously. But I think ice chewing weakens them and creates cracks that later cause breakage.
  16. And PLEASE don't tell me you are using chewing tobacco too, or Skoal or whatever...
  17. I'd say 27 cu ft is ginormous. Mine is 25 cu ft, which I thought was huge, and it JUST barely fits into the opening for it.
  18. It looks like I need to run a VJ special for my ice chewing friends. Buy two overpriced crowns and get one root canal free. Can not be combined with any other specials. Only valid on certain days that we decide. Cash only. All offers void where prohibited by law.
  19. NO, NO ,NO! NO, NO, NO... This is just so wrong. Just don't
  20. Wow, do you have one of these? I'm impressed. No wonder my wife calls me a red neck. I just use the square cubes from the (now Whirlpool) ice maker.
