  Thank you. I do appreciate it

  They look good. Do you have a model number or the upc code off the box? If I can buy it locally I’d like to. But it doesn’t show that info on the Amazon site.

  Where would I buy an incandescent from for a normal table lamp?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not disparaging the dead or anything. But why does it seem in the US we are expected to feel sorry for a person who overdoses on illegal drugs? Didn't they make the choice knowing the outcome?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So you are saying a person can’t possibly get addicted to legal drugs then when those drugs are cut off they can’t possibly turn to illegal drugs?

  You are saying that a person can’t get addicted to drugs for other reasons? Ex: mental health issues that aren’t being fixed?

  Well done

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨At what age do we switch from measuring a human by length to by height?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  He gets measured and weighed.

  Height length width and weight

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If Orange Dickhead dies before taking his oath again will we party like it's 1999?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That is a good point. He could die of a heart attack on national TV and Maga would find a way to claim something else happened.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If Orange Dickhead dies before taking his oath again will we party like it's 1999?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t had a drink since before the turn of the century. You better belive I’m having a drink, when that fucker dies. I’d piss on his grave if I could find it and not get arrested doing it.

  Their motto :

  We start with your shit, and we finish with your ass

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the term "bloodline" often used instead of "family tree"?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because trees are made of wood and without blood, your wood isn’t doing anything.

  I should go.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it cheaper to use a plug-in oil radiator to eat an individual room, or run the central heater to heat an individual room and living room?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Another good way to do it is to actually hire a HVAC individual on and have them come out and just look at the system. But be wary of that. Some of them are not exactly the most brightest bulbs in the world. And they will tell you, oh you have to have them all open at the same time you can’t close them. Without actually looking at the system. I’ve run into that to myself. In my house, I can close, almost half of my vents without any issue, and yet a number of techs have told me I can’t do that. Until I make them go and look at the furnace and count the number of vents and look at the size the vents then they go oh yeah, I guess you can.

  Like I said some of them are not very bright. So maybe it might pay to hire on a couple of them to really look it over. Make sure they really look at the central system, blower furnace, etc. and then also look at the vents in the size of the vents.

  Yes, it cost some money upfront for them to come out and help you with it, but you can get an idea of to what they’re doing.

  The other option is to go down to the library and check out a bunch of books on the subject and try to learn it yourself.

  Lol

  This is the exact problem. If you don’t get into the conversation right away. Nothing you say will be heard

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why don't we just gather up all the ocean's trash and all the nonrecyclables, put them in a rocket, and launch it into the sun?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Another problem is that each item we throw into the Sun is comprised of atoms. We would literally be taking the atoms that makes up earth and throwing them away to a place where the atoms would no longer be part of earth. While a McDonalds cup isn’t going to catastrophically change earth, do it enough times and we could see a problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where does a man get a proper shoe horn that will not break⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Get a new one. Go to a shoe cobbler, also to a good shoe store. Then show them your technique. I found it odd that you are bending them so soon. Have them watch you use it. Maybe it’s your technique.

  A solid financial advisor/attorney will be able to give you ideas on where to put that money what to do with it. And they will be able to tell you whether or not the government can or cannot see it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If Biden wanted to could he have people kill Trump since he is in office and SCOTUS said it was ok?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  He could not be prosecuted for it, but my understanding is that the people who killed Trump could be prosecuted because it’s still a crime (it’s just that Biden can’t prosecuted for it)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The 42 year old new hire at your job confesses to you that he has had 48 different jobs in his life. What is your opinion on that?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If it’s the last one, I’m bringing my lunch to work to watch the show as the boss gets pissed.

  We’ll agree to disagree

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you consider making a sandwich to be "cooking?"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just because you don’t enjoy it doesn’t mean you suck at it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you consider making a sandwich to be "cooking?"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m going with inedible but yeah that’s cooking

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you consider making a sandwich to be "cooking?"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess it would depend on the type of sandwich

  . Peanut butter and jelly? No

  A simple cheese sandwich? No

  Grilled cheese sandwich? Yes

  Try to become an anaesthesiologist. They get paid more. Just a thought.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could I patent harmful technology to prevent it from being put on the market?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not doing the research on that. That is horrifying

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could I patent harmful technology to prevent it from being put on the market?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think that might have been his name.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could I patent harmful technology to prevent it from being put on the market?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In theory yes

  In reality, they will find a way around your patent.

  Look up the patent on window wipers as an example
