    Ever Try To Invent A Consumer Product?

    Not worth it for a sub $20 product. You'll be flooded out of the market in 3-6 months from cheaters with fake safety certifications and fake social media hype that redirects to their copycat that selling just a $1 above cost.

    A quarter century is a long time in fast food terms.

    So true. Hahahah...I got shafted so many times like that. I quit looking. Nowadays I just buy the Costco frozen pizza and add my own quality toppings. And it's still better than 99% of the pizza joints in California. I guess most Californians like to eat salt, grease, and wax on top of a...

    Got a letter in the mail from my bank today.

    At least your bank didn't close your account and claim you never had an account. Then accuses you off trying to scam them. Then later finally hinted that a former employee stole your money but won't share any info with you or the police for a police report. Not fun. Not fun.

    How times have changed...maybe.

    Today, a guy eating two feet away from was coughing. Since we're in a pandemic, I thought it was rude to look, and he sounded like water just went down the wrong pipe. A couple minutes later he said "sir, how are you doing?" I ignore him. He said louder "SIR, how are you doing?" I looked at...

    Moral compass question: Pet Peeing

    hahah...seriously. We all told the friend what you said, but the friend was getting all worked, contemplating installing a camera, suing the woman for illegally using his trash bin, putting up a "no poop" sign, etc, etc. It was entertaining, but the little things people get all worked up...

    Moral compass question: Pet Peeing

    lol, first world problem. It's pee. It's not going to damage your car relative to all the stuff that's already damaging your car. Move along to much more important things. There's no moral compass here. It's human nature assigning a story, a purpose, a moral compass to a nonchalant...

    News The Verdict

    I was on a jury once (in California, so not sure how if it applies to other states, particularly Minnesota in this case). From my experience, jurors are very unlikely to be influence by the media, protesters, family members, victim's family members, etc. And even if a juror is egregious, by...

    ATOT IT Workers - How Much Do Companies Monitor Employees?

    We only monitor for certain words, certain websites, and extreme bandwidth usage. There's always that one person out of thousands every few years.

    Travel Insurance (eg, Trip Cancellation/Etc...)

    Barclays LOL. It's not even close to being in the same league. Any kind of protection from Barclays is as good as no protection. They'll string you along asking for additional irrelevant info, playing phone tag, and playing email tag...in hopes that you will give up, despite the overwhelming...

    What product warranties have you ever used?

    Brand new Craftsman toolbox was missing a latch. Called Craftsman, only to be transferred to Stanley. Stanley said to email them the receipt and a picture of what's missing. Didn't hear from them again. Thought about returning the toolbox to Lowe's, but didn't want to go through all the...

    Deaths caused by people plowing through red lights at a 10 year high

    I have a ton of dash cam footage of bad drivers over the years in SoCal. And it ain't people texting or checking their phones who are running red lights and stop signs. It's people who don't give a F about other people, because they're too good to wait for anything. It's always the same...

    Info Virtual Assistants - information requested

    I've used onlinejobs.ph for virtual assistants in the Philippines. It seems to be mostly out of work folks, but there are gems to be found. You will have to give them real life tests (with pay of course, it's cheap enough), and you'll probably go through 2-3 people before you find a good one...

    Anyone have a compost pile for use in growing plants?

    I've done composting in a tumbler. It's too much wasted time for what you get back. Worm composting is much better and easier. Plants love worm compost more. The only drawback of worm composting is that cool weather kills the worms. Time and money spent, it's cheaper and easier to just buy...

    Should police only have rubber bullets loaded and leave the lethal ammunition to SWAT?

    lets talk hotdogs...

    Ate some hot dogs at Lafayette Coney Island and American Coney Island in Detriot. While they were some of the best hot dogs I ever had, they were still just hot dogs. Weinerschnitzel? I rather get a Costco hot dog for the best value. A hot dog is a hot dog is a hot dog.

    What you want to do is good cause. Unfortunately, I don't support it either. Wait, now that I think about it, I'm actually against it. I can see why others are pissed off at you. Grave sites are personal to them, and not some tourist attraction. They probably don't want people to flock to...

    Thinking about outsourcing my job duties?

    That's hilarious. Reminds me of my home security system, typical made in china rebranded Dahua stuff: I set up the system to email me when any of the sensors is tripped. Good thing I used a junk gmail account for this. When I last checked that gmail account, it said Google has blocked X...

    Cooking chicken without it getting dry?

    Keep it simple. Just get one of those george foreman electric plate grill. Add salt to chicken breast and stick it between the plates. When the breast is cooked, it beeps. Done . Nearly perfect chicken breast. If you want perfection, then sous vide it.

    Would you pay $6.5 million to get your kid into college?

    I'd argue that's not too different from "Legacy preference" for college admissions. After college, getting a high paying government job is pretty much based on who you know, because if you got a friend or family member in high level government position, you can easily meet the criteria.

    The trouble with the 20-30 year olds today...

    It sucks when you are the subject matter expert with decades of experience, and the people hiring you think you're wrong....because YouTube and Google says you're wrong. Sucks even more when the dumbed-down certification test says you're wrong too.

    NOW CLOSED ; List some movies you've watched recently. Theatre, rental, TV... and give a */10

    Damn. It's as if you read my mind verbatim. Nothing more I could add except, the film score / music track (whatever it's called) was perfect. If anyone didn't watch the film with full range speakers, they've missed out on pretty much half the ending.

    Ageism at workplace is funny:

    **Super Bowl LIII Patriots v Rams -- Super Bowl XXXVI Rematch -- PATS WIN!! - 13-3

    Obviously, fake. No one in California cares about the Rams and the Chargers. The Rams "fan" crawled out of hibernation and found one other "fan." They were both sad, but now that they're life long Patriots fan, they're happy.

    Netflix's Kingdom 8/10. A big budget, serious with a bit of comedy, zombie drama set in old Korea. Watched all six episodes this weekend. No filler episode. It'll have you clinching your butt at the edge of your couch throughout and wanting more.

    Puerto Vallarta is one of the best places in Mexico to visit. Funny that 90% of tourists there are Canadians. I think it's best that way...a much more mello, enjoyable atmosphere.
