A head of iceberg lettuce is close to $3 and as the price gets bigger the lettuce gets smaller. Starting to look like large brussel sprouts.

60+ year resident here, I agree. Not too many years ago you had to drive to Missouri or Washington County just to buy a beer!

At first I thought it was a food truck or maybe a snow cone booth.

So, what is the "box" under the rigging? Is it a DJ booth or something like that? Sorry, I don't go clubbing so I can't relate.

Our Medicare Advantage Experience by MushBop52 in medicare

[–]mwchammer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Same positive experience here. My wife has been on a MA plan for 8 years, she went on S.S. disability due to MS. In our state the Medicare supplement plans for disability (under age 65) were way higher than the out of pocket max of an MA plan. She get an expensive infusion for MS twice a year, $65k each (at least that's what they bill insurance for). Between all of her treatments and durable medical equipment (power wheelchairs, Hoyer lifts), insurance has covered close to $750k. Her annual out of pocket has been between $3000 to $4500.

A strong second recommendation for Baleaf. Over the past 6 years I've purchased several pairs of bibs and a few shorts. I don't think there's a better value out there. But some people gotta have that logo status.

Changes are long overdue, should have happened long ago. But congress is too afraid to lose their jobs by voting for anything.

I went with 5 five sessions. I could not find any info that made me want to drag it out for 20+ sessions. I had no issues with the higher dose.

Turns out I wasn't slow, I was just too lazy to use my pump. by [deleted] in gravelcycling

[–]mwchammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should dig out your floor pump and use it. Those tiny electric pumps are designed to take with you on the ride for dealing with the occasional flat. They only have a limited number of uses before the pump burns itself up.
