I worked in a restaurant that had a pretty fancy wine list. I knew nothing about wines. I asked my co-worker what I should say when someone asked me about a certain wine. He said to just re-read what it said on the menu (each wine was followed by a brief description). E.g.,: Fruity with notes of peach and apple.
So, I should say: "That wine is fruity! It has notes of peach and apple!"

The new PC is working beautifully, I can't believe it takes all of five seconds to see the login screen! Never again. I'm feeling so much more productive already.
Couple of things marred my experience, though. First, that one USB-C port can't be used for charging my mobile phone because the computer shuts down immediately. Apparently it's only for data transfer? So that sucks. Why would anyone design it that way?
Second, I forgot my national digital certificate password, so I can't access the online portal where all my health records are stored, and I can't communicate with my primary physician and dentist. So now I'll have to go back to the old computer and export the certificate with a new password. This is a relatively minor annoyance, though.
Lastly, I won't be torrenting porn anymore, because apparently the constant writing/reading that entails isn't good for my new SSD hard drive. It'll be a healthy change for me, I think, so that's not really a loss.

I don't know if you remember my post about the housefly that got into the house. I thought it had gotten out or Cos had eaten it. Turns out, it was atracted to the Zevo bug catcher and got stuck, as it should have. It scared the shit out of me when I changed the insert! Until now, it's just been gnats and fruit fly-type insects that it's caught. Seeing that huge fly was quite a jolt.
I'm finally having my second bathroom updated. Kohler is installing a new tub and shower wall and I'm getting a handheld and overhead shower head. I have to buy the vanity and toilet but they will install it. I'm so happy. I hate the shower doors and would like a shower rod. Once installed, I shall take a long luxurious bath and rinse off with the handheld spray head. I've lived here 25 years and all other rooms have been painted/updated.

R142, the bathroom will be an off-white color with grey walls to match the grey marble vinyly flooring that's already installed. I would like a higher toilet with elongated seat. I just have to make sure the dimensions are the same as the current toilet. I really wanted to keep the grey tub but a replacement was the better choice (it's not a metal tub). If I had the money, I would have had a clawfoot bathtub installed. I love those and almost bought a house just because of the tub.
Yes, R144. I am extremely lucky. When I had the kitchen redone, and was waiting for the countertop and sink, I was washing dishes in the bathtub. It was no easy feat, considering the damned shower doors.

Peas are a decent source of fiber.
Men under age 50 should have 31-34 grams of fiber daily.
Men over 50 should have 28 grams of fiber daily.
A half cup of peas has 4.4 grams of fiber.
But if you have IBS or are on a FODMAP diet it's probably best to stay away from peas as they are naturally rich in sorbitol and fructose.

R182 being out of work and looking is really tough. I was out of work for 9 mo once. I can't remember anything about that time except that I gained weight and worried about money. Days ran into each other. My house was a mess. I stopped showering every day. It was before covid so when covid hit I kinda knew what to expect. Since I have no discipline except about work, it was difficult to make myself do things. But when I did, I felt at least I accomplished something that day. Keep at it. All will be well.

R246- Not the Healthy Valley Low Sodium Vegetable Soup I've been buying for about 15 years- I usually make my own soups but I like the Health Valley soups as fillers. The low sodium Vegetable Soup is only 90 mg of sodium for the entire can. The low sodium Tomato Soup is only 50 mg of sodium for the entire can of soup.

River is considering sending out autographed photographs of himself for a modest fee if there is enough interest. If this is something you would be pay for, make your interest known in the comments section of his latest video so he can determine if there is a demand.
He said he knows it's vulgar and pretentious but that's who he is. I have to agree it.
This is an odd way to increase his earnings. He has been asked many times for his skincare routine which he refuses to divulge because the manufacturers' aren't paying him to advertise for them. But how can they offer to sponsor or pay him if he doesn't first make it known he uses their products? I don't understand his logic.

I started watching him when he had an ASMR channel before he had the Sussex channel. I love a British accent. He doesn't do ASMR anymore and he did take down the ASMR channel for a while but then put the old videos back up. He did a lot of ASMR role play, bitchy waiter, posh sales associate selling clothes and accessories, etc.
Unfortunately, most of the anti-Sussex youtubers are MAGATs and have awful, grating voices.
At least River has a nice voice, provides some entertainment with his costumes, occasionally a little British history lesson and I like seeing his thrift shop finds.

My dog has an appointment at the groomer's on Monday afternoon. We're going to the beach for a long weekend so didn't want to make it for this week although he's already past due. However, he smells quite rank and I don't him stinking up the car so I'm going to have to give him a bath. My next home will have a dog washing station. Is that a thing now? Like a mudroom evolution?

He goes in the bathtub, r412. I really do hate bathing him at home. I would like to have something like the link below, maybe I would wash him at home more. In the summer I just spray him with the hose and/or wash him in his kiddie pool. The groomers do such a nice job, though. I drop him off, run some errands or go for a coffee, and pick up my handsome boy who likes to show off and strut around town before we go home.
He's a golden retriever and goes to the groomer about every 6 weeks. Last time was the first week of September when we got back from vacation so it hasn't been too long, but he stinks like dirty socks. Bath time after 9:00 walk.

My car's tire pressure light came on yesterday morning because of the temperature change overnight. In keeping with the "simple things you don't know how to do" thread, I stopped by the gas station and tried to air up the tires myself, but the light is still on. I guess I'm close enough to needing an oil change so I'll just get them to do it.
by Anonymous | reply 422 | October 18, 2024 12:40 PM |
You have to drive a bit before the lights go out so the sensors can determine if the tire pressure is high enough. Or the pressure still wasnāt high enough because you didnāt inflate them enough. Gas station air pumps arenāt very precise.
It happens to me all the time for the same reason. Buy a tire gauge to read the pressure and a small pump that plugs into the cigarette lighter to fill them.

A caramelized (looks like I spelled it wrong) onion recipe involves 4 pounds of onion, salt, pepper, water as needed, and one heaping tablespoon of beef bouillon.
I donāt feel like stirring for three hours, but it sounds good.

R524, assuming your devices use a USB or USB-C, buy a multi-port extension. I bought one on Amazon that has 3 USB ports as well as 4 3-pronged ports. I plug it into the wall. I also have a 4-port USB that I plug into the main multi-port extension. This I received from work.
Thanks, R531. I have a service contract and don't think I've ever had it checked since it was installed.

Last Thursday afternoon, I got both Flu and COVID booster shots. Not sure which one but one of them pretty much knocked me on my ass. Chills, body aches, and a slight fever. Glad I was off Friday. Unfortunately, it fucked up my FitBit stepping streak I was working on 60 days of 5500+ steps/day. I really tried to keep it up but had to stop.

I'd be careful with all of these electrical extensions, cables, and adapters. At the end of the day, you're dealing with electricity and you could cause a fire if you use cheap stuff and/or overload one adapter / outlet.

He did die! 63 years old! I was able to watch him pitch (during the heyday) at Dodgers' and Jack Murphy (San Diego) stadiums. I think it was his Mike Scioscia days.

R556, yeah, I was very lucky to be living in So. Cal. at that time. Mike Scioscia is still alive. We'll see what he has to say. But yeah, Fernando brought a ton of excitement to MLB, the way he looked upwards right before he pitched. He was actually from Mexico, too, so that brought a lot of new fans to the game.

Update: Dollar Tree Dishwasher Packs
I've used them for two light/medium loads i.e. dishes, mugs, glasses, silverware, utensils. No pots. Everything came out clean as usual except a silicone/nylon Oxo turner (spatula) that I laid horizontal in the top rack. It still had a bit of dried egg film on the edge but that has happened before even with Cascade. The scent isn't as strong as Cascade which I prefer. I will continue to use them for everyday light/medium loads. If I use them for a heavy duty load with really dirty pots or baking pans, I will update.
I also gave a canister to a friend. He has used them a couple of times including for pots and everything came out clean as usual. But his pot usage consists of boiling water for ramen or pasta or Kraft Mac n Cheese and I wouldn't count that as a heavy duty load.

Oatmeal is high in the amino acid Arginine.
If you are prone to cold sores you should either eliminate foods high in arginine or take Lysine along with the high Arginine food to help balance the Lysine/Arginine ratio.
Arginine is also helpful for erectile dysfunction.
