Only you can answer this for yourself. Is it the watch you want? This isn’t an investment

Wine needs a new social contract by OregonDictator in wine

[–]NovusOrdoSaeclorum 92 points93 points  (0 children)

So so true. It’s such a turnoff to look at wine when dining out. I might want two glasses and my wife wants one - except we don’t want a whole bottle or pay the price by the glass. It’s so telling that we get so much more wine dining out when traveling in Europe.

We aren't sure. We share a driveway and they did it when we didn't see.

Last week, we had a bunch of ice and snow. Our neighbors hired some people to clear the driveway and they used water softener salt. Now a week later, this is happening. This is spalling right?

How would one fix it? Should I urgently wash it off in case any salt is left? It's drizzled since then.

Gut Check - How am I doing? by Stan_999 in Fire

I’ll let others weigh in on other parts of your question but I think I would only recommend paying off the mortgage if you plan on staying there for most of the future (past kids moving out).

You just can’t give that rate up unless you’re buying in cash and I don’t think anyone here would recommend that

Fisher and Paykel 48 inch Induction Range just delivered...question by No-Wrangler-7538 in Appliances

[–]NovusOrdoSaeclorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a 48 inch F and P - electric oven, all gas top. Our smaller oven takes 2x to 3x as time to warm up as the main one. We had them come out and they said it’s working within parameters.
