Don't do it man! You'll regret it every time you're in the back yard, listening to the radio by yourself.

He can file for Social Security two months before his 62nd birthday.
He'll receive a lesser amount if he files early, of course. The amount
of Social Security received is based on the number of "work credits"
he's accrued during his lifetime.
 
With all his shouting about being a nurse and a computer engineer, how
many hours did he actually spend getting a paycheck? It's the
information that was reported to the SSA (Social Security
Administration) that will determine how much he receives, whenever he files.

He could probably apply for SNAP benefits to buy food given he has no
income other than the (maybe) $500 a month he gets from two (maybe)
renters. The laws vary by state.

Really Joan? The meat I buy all has labels that state "This animal was
cruelly beaten before we slaughtered it!" LOL

Obviously with how few hours he worked the useless POS will owe SSA a
bundle... I'm fairly certain that Kootchie won't receive a thin dime.

Last month it was announced Munich, Germany announced they have
cancelled Oktoberfest:
 
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-04-21/munich-s-famed-oktoberfest-beer-fair-canceled-over-virus-fears
 
"Munich Mayor Dieter Reiter said the event -- this year due to take
place between Sept. 19 and Oct. 4 -- brings in around 1.2 billion euros
($1.3 billion) for local businesses and that hotels, restaurants and
taxi drivers would especially suffer.
 
Better to err on the side of caution.

No, it might not. Most people who go to hospital with Covid symptoms
are already in very bad shape. An oxygen meter can tell you a couple
of weeks earlier that you need medical help. You might arrive in
hospital earlier and in better shape, so they can help you better.

>No needle. These gadgets are completely non-invasive - unless you think that having slight pressure on your fingernail is invasive. They work by shining a light through your finger and measuring absorption levels. It turns out that these cheap devices are quite accurate. I expect a normal oxygen saturation level to be from 99 to 95 percent. If it reads below 90%, you could be in trouble or you have a chronic lung problem.
 
And they're easy. There's no need to go to a hospital or doctor. The
device doesn't even need a blood sample.

I can feel my heartbeat. I can feel when it's too high (stress or over
exertion). Low, normal, relaxed. Or maybe I'm just sleeping. :)

Huh. I can feel my pulse all over my body if I just sit quietly. No
problem counting it.

Yes, but this counts the oxygen levels in your blood. And yes, it is
accepted by the medical professionals.

Any bean dish with potatoes is redundant... like pasta fazzuli. I'd
not add tomatoes to navy nean soup either... the color added is all
wrong... pink navy bean soup is very faggoty. Hizzoners eatery must be
in totally gay Frisco... are you a Lezzie... just asking... if you is
I'd enjoy seeing you in action, I'd want to take a turn ;)

Goya has ham boullion, adds excellent smokiness.

For basic bean soup, I use a piece of smoked turkey leg or thigh (I find these at Asian stores) for flavoring. As others have said, celery too. Lightly browning all the veggies in oil/butter will improve depth of flavor.
 
You can go in all sorts of directions.
 
Add tomatoes and pasta and a bigly dose of oregano or mixed Italian herbs, maybe some acidic white or red wine, and call it Italian Bean Soup.
 
Add some of your best wurst (just had to say that), some cabbage, and a half bottle of decent dark beer, and call it German.
 
Add some chopped charred poblanos, corn, and cheese of your choice, maybe some salsa, and call it Mexican.
 
Add some cat turds from the litter box and a cup of Crystal Palace and call it Shelbean Soup.
 
Just some ideas. Enjoy, whatever you make!

He dumped her because she is a 20th century woman, and he's a 21st
century man with a 300 year plan.

It was history before it started but John kept assuming otherwise.

I do believe you also once said that if, after you retired, you found
yourself watching soap operas all day you'd shoot yourself. You've
managed to keep plenty busy. :)

Some people don't seem to realize that their "freedom" is compromised as
soon as it impedes another's.
