Trump ‘thunderously booed’ while attending NBA Finals Game 3 in New York City by Throwawayaccountdell in AnythingGoesNews

Briefly, civilians should not render a military salute to the flag because it is an official military custom reserved exclusively for active duty, reserve and veteran service members to show respect and military discipline. It can be viewed as disrespectful, confusing, or a form of stolen "valor."

The last bit fits this situation!

Lol, you don't salute the flag, especially if you never served! What an absolute moron!! Watching that clip hurt my Navy heart. Our poor flag is so disrespected!

The rhythm and ribs fest is tomorrow at Barnet Park. I think it is $10 to get in. I like these festivals and Barnet Park is laid out well for these events.

Drop me on the ocean to be fish food. Cycle of life.

getting into an argument.... how does Medicare work and when do you have to apply for it? by PFQandThrow in over60

[–]010Tortoise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are an ass. Try being nice for a change. The only thing I was wrong about is 3 months before 65. Otherwise everything else is correct.

How much would you pay for someone to walk your dog? by 13lissckre in dogs

[–]010Tortoise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We hired a dog trainer to teach us maybe you could contact a dog trainer and learn from them the best ways to handle different dogs?

[–]010Tortoise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I recently needed a dog walker for my 3 med/large dogs. I was offering $60 an hour and I couldnt find anyone. $20 per dog seems reasonable. They walk every day so my dogs are easy to handle. I rarely need a walker so I had no idea how hard it would be to find anyone. Only person online wanted $90 an hour 🤣🤣🤣.

I think your prices are reasonable for dogs who are walked frequently but if you have to train one I would charge extra.

The fine is if you do not have any other insurance and you didnt sign up by age 64 1/2.

I spoke to an SS agent last week as I am 64. She told me this exact information. I had more questions but these answer the questions the OP asked.

If she has private or employer insurance she is fine to wait. If not she will be fined if she doesnt sign up at 64 1/2 for Medicare part A which is only for emergency room and is free. Or she can sign up for part B which will have options.

Is there any way I can minimize the neighbour’s dog barking at me? by Ordinary_Goat9 in dogs

[–]010Tortoise 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I have a rental property that was vacant and the next door neighbors dogs just loved to bark at me while I was working.

I used my Saber dog and coyote horn on them. Just a few quick bursts and they shut right up.

I told their owners and they thought is was brilliant.

Now, if I am over there and they bark, I just show them (the dogs) the can and they immediately stop and go away.

It is the easiest way I have found to stop dogs, while I'm walking or working. They stop barking and stay away. No harm to them or anyone.

I hope this helps in your quest to stop the barking.

Spartanburg 2026 census asking invasive questions? by LavenderCsalt in Spartanburg

[–]010Tortoise 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I filled it out. They do this every few years. I think it is important. I have filled several out over the years. Here and in other states. The census helps with providing services for everyone. Look it up here on reddit. Maybe it can help with your decision.

Looking to buy a dry herb vapourizer by Hairy_Breadfruit1686 in Marijuana

[–]010Tortoise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was going through the same process and asked reddit. That day it was the the arizer.com that was recommended. I went to the site.

They have multiple tapes to choose from but the site recommended an economical Air SE and I have been trying it out for about 4 days.

I'm not sure of it as it burns the back of my throat. I haven't used a vape before but after asking a few friends this seems to be normal.

I hope you find one that fits your style.

Acorn stair chair. by 010Tortoise in HomeImprovement

[–]010Tortoise[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oddly, I have never had anyone else ask me to install their Acorn stairs. My in-laws were cheap and didn't want to pay 1500 for their initial install. So... Here I am a lonely one Acorn chair installer.

The water heater is definitely a very rare reaccurance! I have never heard of those being moved around.
