    Night Comes to the Cumberlands. I wish that I would have read it long ago.

    I couldn't find it at my local libraries or used bookshops.

     

    Amazon-Hard cover $70.00

                   Soft cover $32.00

                    Kindle  $3.50

    To Easy. Done. Thanks.

  2. I have a new Samsung smart TV.

    A brand new top of the line TV box, wireless.

    A very good Yamaha reciever.

    A pair of RB 61ii bookshelf speakers.

    A Klipsch sub.

    The Yammy doesn't have an HDMI input so I ran an optical cable from the TV out to a cheap ($20.) optical to RCA adapter.

    When I hook any other source to the Amp the sound is very good. TV programs, I am constantly turning the treble full up and bass all the way down.

    And still find voices hard to understand.

    So is it the TV programing or that little converter?

    Not only does Walmart use hostile pricing like that, they’ve been known to try to bypass a town council that doesn’t want them to open a store in their town.  They’ve actually stated that they believe that the potential customers in the town need to have a local Walmart, regardless of what the elected officials believe.  The citizens know Walmart’s history and support the Council, but that’s irrelevant to Walmart, who have gone to court to be allowed to set up in places where they aren’t even wanted.

    He drank it with sugar only.  I did it every day for about a month and he never said a word.  Then I got gutsy and went with two packets if I could get to his thermos. 

     WAY BACK-One of my High school teachers bought the first VW bug in the little town I lived in.

    He would tell us of the great fuel mileage he was getting. Every week or so we would sneak up his

    house at night and dump a gallon or two in the Bug's tank. Every week or so he would tell us of the amazing

    MPG's he was getting. Went from 40's to 50's to 60's 70's 80's. We finally wrote him a note to explain.

    I flunked that class.

  5. I've been jotting down these ?words? for a couple of months from TV adds.

    No idea what they are for but they do make me wonder about the English language, among other things.

    XIAFLEX (I saw "Bent Carrot") in that one, CAPLYTA, STELARA, NUPLAZID, PREVAGEN, LINZESS, SKYIRZI, VRAYLAR, VAZALORE, PROLIA, ENBREL, DESCOVY, ENTYVIO,

       @JohnJ   I was counting egg shells in that waste basket.  😂

     

    Monday was tax prep which sucked beyond belief.  lol  Funny how kids laff at old ppl and politics always whining about taxes...  Some day they might get it.  Maybe!

     

    THEN I headed out for a 1.5 hour drive each way to my dentist's office.  Walked in and his receptionist says, "What are you doing here?  Your appointment is Wednesday @ 2 not today.  Back in the car and another 1.5 hours home.  THAT is totally out of character for me to screw up like that.  So took a day off today and to a VM.  Yup, one of the girls at the office calling me to "remind" me of my appt on WEDNESDAY @ 2.    THEN I got a phone call from one of the other girls later reminding me again.  Yup, you're right I got ANOTHER reminder a while later.    TOMORROW they pay! hahaha.  Gonna tell 'em they need more to do.  hahaha  :)

     

    Talking 75 tomorrow w/wind gusts possibly 50mph.  SOME day it may just break and become spring again.
