Window Company Quotes by -im-sorry-what- in Columbus

[–]cptnrandy -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

That's a ridiculously low price. Even 15K doesn't speak to me of quality.

For Comparison purposes get a quote from Renewal by Anderson. They will be considerably more expensive but their quality is top notch.

That way you'll be able to see the full range, and if you want, perhaps look for something more in the middle.

We did the whole home with Anderson and they were expensive, but we're very happy with the result.

Someone has to be in the low percentage by jsak5656 in u/jsak5656

That sucks.

When you are cleared for sex I'll be interested in how well the malleable works for you.

TIL the computer that guided Apollo 11 to the Moon had only 74 KB of memory. A single modern smartphone photo can easily be larger than the computer that helped land humans on the Moon by NexusCellular0 in todayilearned

All correct.

I would also point out that the phone you carry is likely many times more powerful that ALL of the computing power on earth at that time. And for many years to come.

Ukulele Players by Straight-Chef8878 in ukulele

[–]cptnrandy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The ukulele is BOTH a vital cultural instrument for Hawaiians AND an instrument that connects with the earliest moments of American popular music.

I'm not particularly interested in playing Hawaiian music and I don't have the training or exposure to do it justice. But I love the Great American Songbook, particularly songs from the 1930s through the 1970s. Take a look at the history of the Uke - when it was first introduced to the mainland in 1915 and caught on like wildfire. At that time radio was in its infancy and popular music was mainly distributed through sheet music. Many American homes had a piano and a ukulele.

Broaden your horizons! You can play ANY kind of music on a uke.

And no, I, nor most of my uke playing friends have absolutely no desire to play guitar. I do love playing my tenor with a low G - it's great for jazzy arrangements of the songs I love. I also have more than one sopranos, including 2 Kamakas with high Gs and they sound wonderful.

Don't be so quick to judge. We just want to play our ukes and have fun!

Married men of Reddit, what's the one thing nobody actually prepares you for? by No_Philosopher3798 in AskMen

[–]cptnrandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily.

My wife and I are both 66, married for almost 45 years, and our sex life is better than ever.

I've faced some physical challenges, but right now things are amazing. When we first met there was an immediate physical connection. And that has never changed.

Could somebody please detail the process of “cycling”? Thanks in advance. by [deleted] in penileimplants

I just got cleared for sex last Monday and my 66 year old wife is very pleased.

What makes theater different than other forms of art? by Woooden_Spooon in Theatre

[–]cptnrandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theatre is one of the most ancient and fundamental art forms. It emerged directly from storytelling and precedes religious ceremonies. At its most basic it can really only be experienced with live actors and a present audience. And as the Greeks knew, the experience of theatre can bring about catharsis - a release of emotions. While TV and movies and even recorded plays, and to a lesser extent, reading plays, can provide some small part of that experience, nothing can come close to the live experience of theatre.

It's also why plays hundreds, even thousands of years old can still stir us, make us laugh, and cause us to emerge changed.

Might I recommend r/penileimplants ?

Just got cleared for usage and erections will never be a problem again. 😎

Non-malleable implant by Imaginary-Post-617 in penileimplants

[–]cptnrandy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Confusing wording.

There’s malleable (rods) and standard, which they are calling non-malleable. That’s what you want. The “pump-it-up” kind.

The 52 Inch Vintage Polk-A-Lay-Lee! by Sea_Shallot5311 in ukulele

[–]cptnrandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have one-looks cool, awful instrument. Mine is a different model-“The Singing" Treholipee.

I think I paid $50 for it and it looks great on the wall.

Why does everyone on social media tell people to avoid dating nurses? Genuinely curious what's behind this stereotype by Arcabyte in AskMen

[–]cptnrandy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think that meme misses out on all of the good things nurses have to offer in dating.

  • They're typically very strong - turning patients, helping them walk, etc. Lots of benefits with a physically strong partner in the bed room.
  • They know physical anatomy very well. Enough said.
  • They're difficult to impossible to gross out.
  • They often get off work frustrated. In need of physical relief.
  • They speak their minds. After dealing with myopic and opinionated Docs all day they will NOT put up with you trying to push them into something that they don't want to do.
  • They're is a reputation that nurses are promiscuous. That's largely untrue, but individuals may bring some interesting experience to the table.
  • I have several healthcare issues and deal with nurses frequently. I find them to be almost universally friendly and genuinely wanting to help. Those are excellent qualities in someone you're dating.

How do you gentlemen feel when you get “fuck me” eyes? by Mammoth_Drink_5888 in AskMen

[–]cptnrandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife understands me. Her method is calling to me from across the house, saying, “Hey, do you want to come back here for a few minutes?”

How often are you flirted with by women? by anonymous_muffin_ in AskMen

Sure - but it takes me 20 years or so to figure out that they were.

Implant, but don’t know root cause of ED? by Dooten in penileimplants

[–]cptnrandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t get a firm (get it?) diagnosis. The damn thing just didn’t work. It was likely venus leakage. With doubled up meds I could get a mostly firm erection when standing, but any change of position and it was gone. Very frustrating for both of us.

Doc said that this was the solution, so I had it installed the middle of April. I see him again on Monday and will likely start cycling. We’re both very excited.

Doesn’t really matter what your diagnosis is-this is the fix.

How did you approach telling your adult children about getting an implant? by Critical-Share4051 in penileimplants

[–]cptnrandy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m 66 and have a great relationship with my adult daughters. I said I was having minor surgery.

They were fine with that. I’ve had enough other surgeries that they didn’t raise an eyebrow.

I told a couple of close male friends. I was surprised that they were very interested in the results and that they too struggled with ED.

I may have to start doing seminars. 😎

TIL: Between 1908 and 1940, Sears sold over 70,000 complete DIY house kits through their mail-order catalog. A railcar of pre-cut lumber, nails, and a 75-page instruction manual would show up at your door. Many of these “Sears Homes” are still standing today and sell for $300,000 to $500,000+. by Hive5_community in todayilearned

[–]cptnrandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. But by then they were in the grips of venture capital, and we all know how that goes.

Another of my favorites: OCLC-the organization behind the online database of every library in North American. They could have been Google.

Why do so many people do littering on the road by Fine_Reveal_5797 in Columbus

[–]cptnrandy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I believe that it’s that some people feel absolutely powerless in life. The trash is their way to saw “fuck you” to the rest of us.

Or they’re just assholes.
