  1. I'm a recent member of the 40's club so the doc tells me my eyes are undergoing a significant change and will degrade quite a bit in the next 5-10 years. Maybe Lasik later but I'm not a fan of permanent aftermarket mods to my factory equipment. I've resigned myself to getting glasses since I've been limping along with readers for 2 years but I don't want a piece of crap frame and I don't want to get suckered into spending a gob on a special boutique brand that nobody can recommend.
  2. So I'm old now and have to get my first pair of glasses. Anyone heard of or use Lindberg frames?
  3. http://gizmodo.com/this-is-how-to-find-the...-you-1721584332
  4. if it's windows 7 or newer, try family safety...you can manage it all as a "parent"...btw, the free upgrade to windows 10 will enhance the controls
  5. I want to register 1 car in Georgia (just got a place here) but keep 1 car in Florida (registered there)...Is there anything I need to know? I don't want to get pulled over if I'm driving the Florida car in Georgia and have any issues. Landmines?
  6. So the time has come and I will be moving to an apartment near Atlanta (Peachtree City) until I find something a little more permanent. I need an alarm that I can set up in an apartment that doesn't allow you to violate the walls and install your own. I've called ADT but can't get a ballpark unless they look at the apartment. Any recommendations or ideas what it would take to have a monitored (no landline) wireless system with 2 doors and 3 windows (no motion).
  7. I would be working really close to the airport. need to find somewhere decent to rent for a while until I get my bearings and wife get's a job. Recommendations? Can't break the bank but need to avoid graffiti and 24" wheeled Camry's.
  8. moving from Jupiter, FL to S Atlanta (not sure where yet)
  9. Need some help. I may be transitioning to a new area and don't want to sell my house. It's managed by an HOA outside so I don't think I need a property manager to handle the inside stuff. I will be 500 miles away so I could be wrong since I can't just pop by and fix stuff. Do I need a property management company, what do they do/charge? Do I just contact a real estate agency to handle the rental contracts and renter interviews? I don't think I'm going to have a lot of time once this ball starts rolling so any advice is greatly appreciated.
  10. I guess I should clarify...It's something I remember being told when I was young so it's burned into my brain like sitting too close to the TV makes you cross-eyed. As for the lack of ice: When I was young, my dad would interrogate me and my 2 sisters to find out who didn't refill the ice trays so I decided to abstain from ice (remember I said I was stubborn) so I could be instantly innocent. Anyway, it stuck with me and now I prefer warm drinks.
  11. Mine deals with my decision but doesn't support/interfere. She enjoys a good wine and she wishes I would enjoy it with her. Occasionally it adds friction but mostly it's fine.
  12. It's funny what you hear/learn. I don't put ice in my water (always drink room temp)...I was told that cold beverages cool/congeal the oil/grease in the food you are consuming.
  13. wife loves fizzy water...let me know (might make a good gift for when I need to get of the doghouse)
  14. I just use a Brita pitcher at home and bottled at work
  15. It's funny how others are more uncomfortable with the no drink thing than I am so in a pinch I'll use ginger ale at business functions until the ice is broken. What is the pictured appliance? (I pretty much always drink water...no coffee, soda, tea...occasional OJ if I get a cold)
  16. never had a drop. Grandad was an aggressive drinker so it left an impression. It has a lot of pluses and minuses but I'm stubborn so I'm staying dry to the grave.

  19. since we are talking utensil food...anyone have any recommendations against solid titanium flatware (other than the price)? this is all I managed to find
