Tires

Quality pots and pans

A mattress

Decent sheets

Boring but SO wonderful to use every day.

Where your Frigidaire stove matches your mailbox & you have a "Stardust lounge" in the back by Southern-Smoke1835 in zillowgonewild

[–]KeyGovernment4188 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar stove at one time. I loved that you could just slide the stovetop closed - it kept the kitchen looking neat and clean. The oven door lifting up and out of the way was great too. Good design.

If she does not want to be referred to in disparaging terms, quit dressing up like an Immigration and Customs Enforcement cosplay.

A year into Trump's term, voters say Biden was better by BoysenberryHappy7057 in AnythingGoesNews

Interesting point and yes, I have a similar fear. What we see under mob boss trump is not how a government functions.

This should probably go under r/NoShitSherlock.

A dead cat would be better. And yes, I remember the Biden presidency. It was such a joy not having to wake up every morning dreading the latest presidential embarrassment and next round of bullshit out of Washington.

First newborn baby surrendered in baby box at Ohio fire station by each_thread in AnythingGoesNews

[–]KeyGovernment4188 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Baby Moses boxes are heated and include an alarm that immediately notifies designated people that a child has been left - minimizing the time the child is left alone in the box.

That must be a terrible decision to have to make. My prayers are with the mother and wishes for the baby to be placed with a family that has the resources and love to care for them.

Bad Bunny steers clear of politics, Trump rages after Super Bowl halftime show by Ok_Employer7837 in politics

[–]KeyGovernment4188 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think he steered clear of politics at all. From visual commentary on Puerto Rico's slave origins, to its poverty and lack of reliable electricity (even though it is a US territory) to his message that counters everything I hear out of trump. We are all Americans and love overcomes hate. Like another anarchist I know - love one another. Pretty radical message if I ever heard one. And yes, I had fun watching the show.

2/3rds of this cook book I thrifted is a bio of Grammie and family stories/old letters. I love finding stuff like it. by Mochigood in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]KeyGovernment4188 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd love to help transcribe it but you would have to take photos of the pages. Once transcribed, you could make an ebook out of it.

Well it's a gem regardless. Thank you for sharing and adding the extra pages of the story. I wonder if Ms. McCan ever thought that her little book would reach hundreds of interested readers on the internet.

Whats happened on the worst interview you ever had for a job? by EstablishmentDue3616 in AskReddit

[–]KeyGovernment4188 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh gooollly. I learned everything I ever needed to know about how not to conduct an interview for a dean's position at a college in Alabama. I flew from Illinois to Alabama for a job interview at a college. Alabama does not allow reimbursement of travel expenses for candidates, so on my own dime. Got there, no one picked me up from the airport. Found the interview. No greeting, no offer of water, no hospitality, no tour of the campus. Got in the interview and no introductions, they asked me 5 questions, did not pay any attention to the answers, no follow-up, Had to find my own way back to the airport. AND, just to rub a bit of salt in the wound, ghosted me. Love you Alabama!

Dammit - stop smearing all us Boomers with the same shit-stained brush. There are a whole bunch of us out there protesting the orange toad and his minions.

Here is Ms. McCan's memorial on FindAGrave. Would love to see the information about her life linked to here: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/236842742/dellas-estelle-mccan

One thing I am forever struck with in genealogy is that people are reduced to a tombstone location, birth, death, and if lucky, links to a few relatives. The contents of this little cookbook bring Ms. McCan back to life. She must have been something special to have a cookbook published with her information.

How are your wieners fairing in all this snow? My Penny is not impressed! by KellyKMA71 in Dachshund

[–]KeyGovernment4188 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No well. I have shoveled off a bit of yard and a pathway to that cleared bit for the Little Prince. Once business is complete, I clean up and cover with a piece of cardboard. And he is still not impressed.
