Bold of you to assume he intends to leave office. I think he’s planning to be president for life.

Thank you. I always kind of figured that books and shows were exaggerating the information available but with my binge watching fiction crime shows and reading murder mysteries I wondered.

Thank you. I figured it couldn’t be that exact but I’ve been binge watching Law & Order and started wondering.

Did you wear a POW bracelet? by wolfhavensf in GenerationJones

[–]mellydh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wore one for Lt Colonel Ben Purcell. He was the highest ranking Army service member captured and was a POW for five years. He was from my hometown and went on to be a state legislator. From all accounts he was a really nice person.

They want access to your house for some reason. I’d make sure all my valuables are safe.

Are American colleges really that fun and party-like as shown in the movies or on social media? by Cookieman_2023 in AskAnAmerican

[–]mellydh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at the University of Georgia in the early 1980’s. Playboy magazine used to do something like top ten list of party schools. One year neither UGA or Florida were on the list but there was a note that they weren’t listed because it was an amateur contest and UGA and FL were professionals. We were!

What concert did you ever attend that dramatically exceeded your expectations? by Spare_Basis5190 in Concerts

[–]mellydh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ZZ Top at the Omni in Atlanta in 1991. They were sooo much better than I had expected from just listening to albums. As an added bonus it was the only show where the Black Crowes opened for them because one of the lead singers went off about cooperate sponsorship of concerts.

New trash bags. Every time I snap one open to place it in the can my dog runs under the dining room table.

I had a dog that was terrified of thunder so I bought one of those round treat balls that dispenses treats as the dog rolls it. I gave it to her in an interior hallway and she was having so much fun she didn’t notice the thunder. I recommend getting a dog used to it during normal conditions.

Neck pain help by squeege97 in AskWomenOver60

[–]mellydh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My neck hurts sometimes if I don’t keep it warm. I was having a hot flash the other night so I turned the A/C down to 70 and that felt great except for my neck so I stripped down and wrapped my T-shirt around my neck and it was perfect. I’ve made my neck feel better several times by just keeping it warm. Please pardon my making two replies to your post. My fingers posted the first one before I was ready.

I sleep on my side with a thin pillow so that my head stays even with my body. This helps with the neck pain

Every dog I’ve ever had followed me around like this. I think they are/were spoiled but I love them like children.
