  1. And get something with extra padding for under your heel. I have insoles, and quite comfy. Provide nice padding for the heel only, though thin layer all the to the toe, from LAZ, and inexpensive. Name brand (forget) but green & yellow color, I think.
  2. Y'all might want to wait till April is over, as have a week to go. Worst since the crash, I find that hard to believe. Its a barometer base on 30 stocks, out of 2100+ companies listed on the NYSE, as of Dec 2024. For a little relativity ... dine at 30 restaurants, get poor service and or food, then state a destination that has 2100 restaurant, and you didn't find anything you liked, so avoid that destination. Einstein taught me that ... 😎 Without mentioning, the said restaurants were all controlled by the mafia
  3. Probably, as I quote AI info, quite often, as it finds it much quicker than I can. But you do have to ask the right question.
  4. What you quote isn't far from the truth, and NOT a myth. But I don't, didn't need to read any article, topic, with a title comparing Trump to Hitler. You can't pull what Hitler did in Germany, in the USA. Too many checks & balance, and at best, you'd only get away with it for 4 yrs. That's if someone didn't, don't cap your A$$ 😎 He was already president for 4 yrs, and the USA didn't collapse, or start WW3. He's one man, and can barely rule by executive order, as already seen, fed judges have already stopped a couple. A state or 2 already said they'd ignore one. Got mid terms in <2 yrs, and he'll lose Congress, so can't finance or cancel anything for more than 2 more years after that. The Constitution is a beautiful document. Aholes get 4 years tops, if the country isn't behind them. Keep embarrassing yourselves by posting your BS, gives intelligent people a chuckle.
  5. That's what microwaves are for. We even bought a small one to take with us when O&A I don't order food unless it's freshly cooked, and I don't eat warm food if it's delivered. That's a recipe for intestinal issues, I don't want.
  6. Laptop for me. I don't know how people live on their phones. Phone apps are crap, minimal info, annoying to negotiate, adds blocking half the screen, and screw trying to type on that little keyboard. If using speech to text, need to proof read & correct. I need a mouse and a full size keyboard. I didn't teach myself to type, so I could type with 1 finger. NO THANKS
  7. Healthcare is probably a big part of that. Especially since ACA (obama care) jacked up the cost, the actually healthcare, and more so the insurance, which doesn't even kick in the first $10 or $12k depending on policy. It would be hard to leave almost free healthcare if you had issues. Medicare plan B - C - D ain't cheap. And the cost of using, jacks up everything. I see pharmacist on YT & FB explaining how silly the rules are IF the accept insurance. They can't even till you it cheaper to buy the meds with cash, than your deductible cost, if using insurance. That's nuts.
  8. Yea, expats don't even want to go back to Europe. Those stuck there, if they can afford them, don't even holiday there. Seems people can't wait to retire and leave, if not deep rooted. Do you think Putin wants more headaches. Why do you the USSR cut the now eastern EU away, as a drain on their resource. Before anyone jumps in, I left the USA, because I was bored, overtaxed when there, though in retirement that wouldn't matter. I could probably find a little slice of heaven over there, with low RE taxes. Just everything is easier here, TH.
  9. When the U.S. Embassy in Israel was moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem on May 14, 2018
  10. I forgot my 'to the title' preface. No, I didn't read the article, as I see Trump & Hitler in same title, then I don't need to waste any time reading further.
  11. Hey ... you went up a notch, just 1, now you're at, well, 1 I figured you for a report & delete & holiday 🙄 To hear Einstein speak ... too cool, though, I don't think Einstein was delivered to me in such a complimentary matter.🙄
  12. So I can call you an 'A$$hole' even though literally , you're not an A$$hole / rectum DISCLAIMER: used as reference only, not to be insulting Einstein is good 👍
  13. That was the final straw for me, when daughter came home and said ... "Daddy, had snake at school today" Really, what kind ... ... "the kind that stands up" WTF As if going through the monthly sick cycle wasn't enough. You're sick, stay home till better. Then back to school with the 'sick' kids, rinse & repeat. This 1st year kindergarten (3 yrs pre school), and she didn't go back to school, and to private school, not village school, till 2 semester of 2nd grade. Nothing but sing songs & nap anyway. Don't need to wake up to a snake laying next to her.
  14. Powell would be out of a job, what ever that is or was.
  15. More silliness ... ... what countries did Trump invade ... who did he send to and where are the death camps ... anyone made to wear armbands And here I thought falsehoods weren't allowed on AN.
  16. Don't mean sh!t to me, unless it affects the exchange rate, which surprisingly has held steady at the 3rd of the month so far. 3rd is when our govt Soc Sec is DD in TH, for those non Yanks. If inflation goes up in USA, well, that's a plus for Yank expats. Exciting ... nah, but great comic relief as the haters go nuts with their silliness. I don't even reply to most posts, as learned not to debate with the mentally ill ... since they're apparently stress out enough. Facts may push them over the edge ...
  17. That's the 'art of the deal', any deal. Ask for a loaf of bread, but settle on a half loaf. No different than when I was Union rep. That's why the tariffs were put on hold. Everyone gets time to think & negotiate, or threaten and rattle the sabers. Until it's go time. Then we'll all see how it pans out in a month or 2. Don't think there is any surprises here. Not many, if any, country or more importantly, politician, can afford a halt in trading, or high tariffs, if not producing in country. Which the USA does not. Or if your country can't feed or energize itself. USA will end up with better trade deals under Trump, than before 2025 started.
  18. Shutting the border ... too easy ❤️ Have to disagree with the 'criminal in waiting' ... " “There’s no more hope for entering legally as long as Donald Trump is there, and anyone telling you otherwise is lying,” he added." That is and was never a legal way to enter the USA. Just an accepted 'catch & release' program, under Obama & Biden, that if not a registered criminal, if even having ID to check, then you simply got a court date at Imm court, for your case review, but released to do whatever. Go to a sanctuary state, CA & NY, register Dem and 'Live the Dream' You cross the border without registering first, you violated imm law, and you are a criminal, an illegal alien.
  19. I agree a shift has to happen, and been stating that myself, once or 20+ times, and in theory, tariffs should force manufacturing back to the USA. But enough to be independent before mid term, simply isn't going to happen, and if CN got pissed off and stopped essential exports to USA, then USA would be screwed. Look what happen to the auto parts supply chain during covid. Lucky most cowered & complied and didn't really need, but new production of autos sure did slow down, along with waiting for new parts to repair & maintain their POS. How much stock of antibodies do you think is warehoused, and would last how long ? For USA's sake, would love to see an intense trade war, as would force the USA to once again manufacture things in country, and be independent of exports. But that's not going happen, unless Reps keep Congress at mid terns, which probably isn't going to happen. Along with Vance having to win in '28' & '32'. No major shift will happen in 4 yrs, let alone <2 yrs now. If economy takes a nosedive, which it will, then Reps will lose Congress at mid term elections. Then deep state is back in control.
  20. Ignorance is Bliss ... BRICS comes into play also ... " India " Auto industry components ... And the grid ... @marin best to do your own research
  21. Live at Beckley WV for about a year. Lovely state and people. Shame my salary sucked, or I would have stayed. First place I lived, away from home & all things familiar. From Philly metro, to backwater, out of the main town of Beckley, in middle of nowhere and loved it. Loaded up my 'station wagon' with $200 borrowed from my brother and off I went, to the unknown. On topic ... yea, Trump needs to be careful with trade war with CN. Actually one, if push comes to shove, USA can't win that fight. CN controls the supply chain of medicine, auto & grid components. USA isn't close to filling that void now or the immediate future if they are cut off from CN exports.
  22. Not amused or wish death or harm on people, but overloading a boat in open waters ... well, you can't fix stupid. People die every day, get over it. It's nature. I make fun and chuckle about my own pending death. Was actually talking about that yesterday at dinner. Got on the subject of when I die, and told the wife to wrap me up in plastic, the duct tape the hell out it, before putting my butt in the hole, so the worms & bugs don't get to me. Her response ... hell no, you're going in the chipper, and then the compost pile. Nothing goes to waste in nature. Told the bi-atch I'm coming back to haunt her A$$
