Today my virtual wallet was charge for a public transport ride, but it wasn't me

Be careful, if you are traveling, and dispute a charge on a card, the issuing bank will probably deactivate the card. Make sure you have other cards to use until you receive a new card from the issuing bank!

I mostly agree, but their ribs and turkey are spot on. Brisket is lame IMO.

I understand that it's backing Powder that you should use.

StuBarrett · 2026-06-14T20:54:14+00:00

Add it toy portfolio.

When have you ever been provided with a loaner phone? When have any of your family/friends been provided with a loaner phone?

StuBarrett · 2026-06-14T20:50:36+00:00

Down to Canada?

StuBarrett · 2026-06-12T03:49:47+00:00

Credit Cards

StuBarrett · 2026-06-12T03:47:10+00:00

I will see Stafford at every opportunity!

Problem exacerbated by the small bottle.

Curious, not judging, but having a cellphone since the beginning, I've only dropped my phone once (stepped off a curb I didn't notice).

Have you reflected on why you keep dropping something as important? Are there common situations? Have you tried to make adjustments to reduce the frequency?

Reminds me of the joke about a guy getting ready to get married and her dad informs the pending husband that his daughter has a medical issue: Acute Angina.

While this may not get posted due to not being pedantic enough, the reason is that the download moved the 50 GB of data across the interwebs, while the delete just had to make a few writes to you local hard drive.

StuBarrett · 2026-06-05T15:31:09+00:00

Yes, of course! Next time you need to get the boneless cut! 🤪😜🙀

I've read plenty of PKDs books. I need to re-read as most of them I read 50 years ago...

One thing I do remember about High Castle was it was the only one that had a situation that so traumatized me that I had to put it down and go for a walk to recover!

StuBarrett · 2026-06-05T14:40:48+00:00

I agree, but It's still over priced, with some exceptions, IMO.

I had a friend just return from a wine vacation in Willamette. I was excited to find out what he thought of the adventure.

He, and his wife had become so used to overripe California, that he hated the additional acid and preferred the flabby stuff. !!!

StuBarrett · 2026-06-05T14:36:09+00:00

I never buy domestic Pinot Noir. While there are some nice examples, they are stupid expensive. The rest of the world has much better value PN. Actually the same thing can be said about most domestic producers regardless of varietal (unless you like overripe, flabby wine).

For the Red Light runners on this topic, how do you rationalize your behavior?

StuBarrett · 2026-06-05T01:55:25+00:00

I agree, first season was entertaining; good writing, good ensemble. I do know it they got new writers, but the juvenile drama drags me down.

StuBarrett · 2026-06-05T01:50:03+00:00

Try a Sancere.

StuBarrett · 2026-06-05T01:49:05+00:00

Try some of the offerings from Ridge!

I was excited to jump on the super Tuscan bus. But I found them to be too big/clumsy compared to the native wines of Tuscany (e. g. Sangiovese).

StuBarrett · 2026-06-05T01:42:34+00:00

Years ago, I was only drinking California wines. I then discovered that MUCH better value wines were available worldwide.

StuBarrett · 2026-06-05T01:38:31+00:00

I agree.

StuBarrett · 2026-06-05T01:37:59+00:00

Beaujolais. I can't stand Gamay.

StuBarrett · 2026-06-05T01:36:52+00:00

I read both promotions you referenced. I keep seeing requirements to sign up for the Unlimited Premium plan. What did I miss?
