OT to all you haters

the traveller guru on NPR said that using the credi card for exchange was a
problem because they charge a higher rate and a fee in a lot of countries,
he was advising getting at least part of your money before you got there,
wasn't listening very closely but i was sorta amazed thinking that getting
it in the country would be cheaper

Does one always know? Is it important to know? I think it's important to
know why you are prejudiced against a color, race or class but not against
completely avoidable and extraneous self-decoration. I don't like them
either. I don't know why and I don't care why. I try not to let my
feelings slip over onto the person who has tattoos, but I am not sure I
always succeed. I would express myself with temporary ones were I so moved.
I actually did that once. Meh.

You obviously slavishly read it, otherwise you wouldn't have replied. So
stop being a lying sack of shit and trying to make excuses about being
'caught'.

The only 'caught' you got is the fact you've been shown to be a liar.





I have some rusty blades I can send you, spongebob. And just remember to
go up and down your wrist, and don't be a whiney assed dribbler and go

Last cruise we left our cards at home. Immediately after coming on board we put
$500 cash into our account with Guest Services with the instructions to let us
know when it got to $100 and we'd transfer more. We had no credit card bill to
surprise us after we came home from the cruise, we'll do this next cruise as
well.

My dad is 90, blind, confined to a wheelchair, and suffering from cognitive
impairment so I can sympathize with your family situation. Fortunately
between his pensions and LTC insurance payouts, he can afford caregivers and
still lives on his own, but the potential for substantial confusion is
obvious and it's never easy to understand what it's like in there.

I do not have HEP C. As for Tats being number one cause, I doubt it. I
would think drug use in which shared needles was involved. I do not drink
alcohol or use drugs.

However as I get older, the use of Sodium Naproxen once in while helps.

It is especially unfortunate in his case, considering that he had
retired so young. Over the yers I worked with a number of guys who had
worked right up to age 65 and then died within a year or so of
retirement. They never had a chance to enjoy their retirement. Then
there were some who never even made it to retirement.

My wife's best friend dropped dead of a brain aneurysm at age 53, so
when my wife had a chance to retire at 55 she jumped at it and has never
looked back. I had an opportunity to take an early retirement at 53, I
thought that it was a little too early to go but there was a 6 month
window for me to go with an 80 factor. If I did not take it them I would
have had to stay to the 90 factor, which meant 5 more years, so I left a
little earlier than I wanted to. I have no regrets.

Julie, you really do not owe anyone an explanation of why you are retired or
any insight into your financial affairs. If I were you I would consider
sharing fewer details of your life with randoms on the internet.

One thing that is highly recommended for both retirees and heart
attack survivors is an immersive hobby.

For me it's playing, playtesting and designing wargames for
publication. I put in about 20-30 hours a week on average on
wargames, but I include research in that, of course.

your beleif system is yours, so many people profess a system christain,
atheist or otherwise, but they never stick to their guns... the fact that
you saw a way to profess what you beleive, and were willing to put both body
and money forth to stand up for it is honorable, it doesn't matter that i
beleive differently, Lee

That seems like a strange thing to say, although I have to admit that my
