You couldn't GIVE me an AR15 type rifle-if you did I would trade it off for another M1A or M1 Garand. I have owned several AR's in the past but then I took a look at my requirements and decided to dump the platform. I live in an area with many open fields and woodlots. I could perceive the...

Same here. Why bother? I have yet to wait in a line when I buy from an online retailer.

No way would I "invest" in residential real estate. Why? 1) It isn't liquid. 2) Prices are dependent on interest rates. People buy payments, not the asset value. What happens to valuation when the fed raises interest rates? 3) Rental real estate is a business. You have to deal with...

Probably they feel they would lose the feeding frenzy they create by pretending "Black Friday" is the time to get deals. I love watching the stampede videos and the frumpy housewives fighting over the last beenie baby.....:D

Whatever. You did not include the most important piece of information....if nobody found out about it would you do her?

I haven't eaten McDonalds "products" (I hesitate to call it food) for over six years and prior to that I occasionally ate breakfast the during the monopoly game. They do give out "food" as prizes and the chances of winning something, even if just a box of artery clogging carbo loaded french...

I think the NFL knows its demographics and realizes that football draws a lot of women fans. The same thing can be said, even more so, about baseball. The two biggest baseball fans I ever knew were women. Face it, why wouldn't women be fans of these sports? It is "televised guy...

I don't see it as a "good time to buy", Real Estate is still overvalued. Historically median home values have been roughly 2.5X median household income. According to a recent news report Median household income in the U.S. is 45,500 dollars. If we valued Real Estate at its historical pricing the...

I gave up paid television services three years ago. I admit I have an antenna up because I like to catch the news. My daily "television" use is roughly 45 minutes. I hate to think of the YEARS of my time I wasted watching shit that doesn't matter. I am no better off for having "invested"...

There is a product called "Chaser" that they sell in drug stores that helps mitigate the hangover.(You have to take it BEFORE you start drinking) If you are puking the day AFTER drinking you need to reconsider your driking habits. Remember that alcohol is effectivley a poison and you...

My initial objection to the Kindle type reader was it seemed as if it would be hard on the eyes. I overcame that after using readers and realized I was just suffering from "old fart syndrome" resisting change.... I keep a lot of PDF based manuals for business use on my laptop. The thing I...

I have to throw down the B.S. flag on this post. You came into 23 million dollars and you are asking what to do in an online forum? My best suggestion is to appoint a conservator of your estate to look out for you.

I think the end of a Paper book is near. Someone brought up the "Kahn academy" and I really have to wonder if the age of the "educational infrastructure" is over. Why would children have to listen to ineffectual "teachers" in a classroom when they can learn BETTER online? Think about the cost...

I just went to the "Megamillions" website to see how many people one the "big prize" out of curiousity. I find it ironic that they have a "piggybank" on the main page and one of the things they suggest you can do with all your "winnings" is "Save for retirement"? The "Lotto" as a retirement...

I don't know why people wait in line. I was at the supermarket today and nobody was waiting in line at the service desk where they sell the things. Same thing with liquor stores- no lines there.....

I've seen people buy what had to be very close to their entire paycheck on these "big drawings". It is pretty sad that somebody would think that 5 or 6 hundred bucks worth of tickets is going to substancially increase their odds of winning. I'm not a big fan of the government run numbers...

LOL- Great, the states are thinking of even MORE ways to screw ignorant people. They are talking about letting people use credit cards to buy tickets here in Tennessee. If you look at the "payout" for the lottery games it would make the Mafia blush. I can't seem to find the story but they...

341 million "cash" option after taxes would be 341 x (1-.35) or 221 million. You would spend roughly 179 million so you would "net" 42 million on your "investment". If I had 179 million dollars sitting around I don't think I would go for it. There is a huge risk that someone else might win...

I recently saw them use this technology on an episode of "This old house" (one of the three television shows I watch):D It was amazing albeit somewhat slow. They could "build up" a 3-d model of a drawing out of plastic resins and of course with the correct colors. The days of an...
