You sound similar to my wife and me, we're in our 70s, we down sided about 3 years ago to a very nice two year old 2000 sq ft one level. Complete with hardwoods in the den, living, dinning, kitchen and hallways, granite countertops, all nice finishing touches. We did spend a chunk on new...

First, I've never paid interest on a car loan. It's a depreciating asset. So just stop sell the damn thing and buy a car for cash. Second, when it comes to owning homes, really consider moving at a minimum of every 5 years. Assuming home prices are increasing, you and your wife filing joint can...

Ever build your own rod? I've built a few many years ago and really enjoyed them. I liked the idea that I can put the spine of the rod blank the way I want it. It changes how it casts and or how it sets on a strike.

Yea we get them in 2025 in happy valley.

We should be fine... :) We have a few things going for us. It will be fun, of course we don't play hockey like the flatlanders do.

Love you guys, Tenn fans are great. It's going to be very weird, being in the B1G, especially with the animosity between the B1G and the SEC. But next year, we'll be B1G Ten and that's just going to be strange. I will always give Tenn and LSU lots of credit for being willing to play out west...

Oregon in my opinion is sort of interesting. I've always liked a 8 man rotation and Oregon is running with 8 scholarship players. I've played on teams like this and they can become pretty tough for opponents. I don't know if the legs eventually go and you just come up short on jumpers. If the...

Dana Altman is an excellent coach. His staff doesn't change much and his teams seem to start the season slow and finish strong. He seems to lose some early games then as the season goes on the defense starts getting better and better, then about Jan or Feb they start really believing in...

Oregon is NOT "finally healthy" they are still missing Bittle, Cook and Barthelemy. These are three excellent players.

Actually, this issue with the change happened at a McDonald's drive threw window. Jammed the whole place up for a while. Also, I'd like to add that their are plenty of smart young people out there. I've agreed to pay for my granddaughter's MBA program. She's coming this weekend to make her...

Two stories just from today... I was talking to a friend who's wife is a teacher. She's tutoring a student teacher at the elementary level. This student teacher is teaching the kids about how to tell time on an analog clock. She says that since it's a quarter past eleven, and since a quarter is...

Perhaps... Name was Metcalf, they were weavers by trade.

That's the same year my family arrived in Massachusetts.

My father fought in WWII, I asked him about it a couple times, he would never talk about it, with one exception. It was sort of a funny story. I was stationed in Germany in the 60s (USAF) and my parents came over and we toured around Europe together for a month. We were in a small Germany town...

These days Cessna might be a much better job.
