Good to know! Thanks! I vacuum seal what I can’t get in jars and let it all thaw freezer > fridge > ground.

I use old mason jars to store my whole bean coffee in the freezer until I’m ready to grind and use it.

A coffee aficionado can probably chime in on why this is bad, but uts the best use I’ve found for the jars.

Same with coffee. I believe it’s actually caffeine that can work as a diuretic.

Most people could cheap out on tools and they'd still last.

I think this is a great one. I learned growing up that if you need a tool for a project buy the cheap one. Then if you use it enough to break it, buy a more expensive one next.

Tool trial by combat, so to speak.

No, that was a potato… or a beet.

Thank you for the reply! I hadn’t consider the regulation around the government as the purchaser.

I’m maybe not who you’re looking to hear from but I can provide a patient perspective.

I never refused my medications but there was a point where I was rude, mean and difficult. For me it was a combination of things. I was tired of being sick, tired of the hospital and wanted to leave but wasn’t well enough, struggling with loss of control and scared.

I did snap out of it and made a point to apologize to the staff I had mistreated. Ultimately it was a negative expression of everything I was feeling because I didn’t know how to process and handle it appropriately.

Wyden, who released the Dec. 11 letter, called upon U.S. intelligence officials to stop using Americans' personal data without their express knowledge and consent, saying it was unlawful

Anybody able to explain how this is unlawful?

Is there a restriction on intelligence gathering agencies that would apply?

I don’t believe this is right or fair but I’m not clear on how it’s illegal.

I can only imagine. You guys get that lake effect cold and wind. I’ve seen it a little in Duluth, I can only imagine what it’s like in a city nicknamed the “Windy City”.

Never. I have had some hard starts when I’ve owned older cars but I’ve never had it not start.

My biggest issue was actually my first car with the headlights. It didn’t chime to remind you they were on and those didn’t turn off automatically. I had to tape a reminder to turn them off on the steering wheel because I killed the battery a couple times.

Still, winter performance wouldn’t stop me from getting an EV. It’s probably be a bonus because when it’s super cold out who wants to go anywhere? Good excuse to stay home.
