Are those some type of artichoke? I used to grow them but the Argentine ants would farm them with aphids and kill them off. The entire SoCal area used to be covered with these ants but Covid killed them all. Weird but true. To wit, I just ordered some artichoke seeds. A bit late in the...

huh, I don't remember. Probably Discover? We used that extensively until Costco forced us to use their Visa card to shop there. We wore that one out, bought another, and that ones been replaced now as well, so it was probably 2008ish?

When a 1.75 year old washer/drum failed, my wife filed a dispute with the credit card company. In the fine print there's a 2 year automatic warranty on appliances. Sure enough we got a new one for free!

So I thought “what if I melted the chocolate chips with the butter before adding to the rest of the ingredients while making brownies?” About the same flavor, but deeper chocolate, insanely thick gooey texture

:cool: 🍻

Lawn Order not to be confused with Law 'n' Order My bird bath is always empty, so I improvised! Oh, and my Gal Pal in the 70's. She won't let me take any new pics, lol... She moved in 2 weeks ago when escrow closed on her house and properties. We're gonna tie the knot in a couple...

Well, I hate to say this, but I just turned 69 years old on March 20. Needless to say it’s been a while since I’ve been to a high school and I’m not exactly sure what they even teach anymore! When I was in high school we had to use slide rulers; calculators were too expensive and *nobody* had...

Score! This is the place to do that, for sure!!! My favorite food.

Yeah, L.A. Small Business is gone…. Unless you want to eat at a taco stand…

You may not know that the sales tax rate here is 10%, so in many cases you'd be better off buying off of eBay.

I remember about 20 years ago when a southern California city heard that dihydrogen monoxide was the most damaging chemical in the world. They banned it. Imagine their surprise when they found out they had just banned water? It is responsible for rust, erosion, etc. Political figures should...

I use them when assembling/repairing PC's. I mostly build tube amps. A pedal here and there. SoCal winters when the Santa Anna winds blow can really make tons of static.

I did this once in the boys locker room after showers. GIVE ME AN F FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF WHATS THAT SPELL? It was hilarious, even the coaches were laughing their asses off!!!!!

I have one in my backyard. We used to be able to use wireless units out there for practice, then they upgraded the poles, transformers and wires from 500v-ish to 5000v-ish. They warned us no to let trees get within five feet or they would become lethal if you touched them. And the next time...
