Hopefully, you got a good deal on that. Like maybe $1 per month.

I use the phone for other things. Alarm clock. Two-factor authentication
when logging in at work or at one of my banking websites. Solitaire
while standing in line. Reminder texts from my dentist. I got a text
from one of my credit cards when my number was breached.
 
Emergency alerts (although infrequent) from the county. I got one of
those in the middle of the night once, and got up to view a terrific
thunderstorm accompanied by a light show from a tree branch banging up
against a transformer on a pole in the neighbor's yard.

We get those emergency alerts, I think they are great but some people
complain, seems unless it directly affects them it's no good. It came
up under an Amber Alert (missing child) I agreed with the province
that they felt a child could be moved a great distance quickly,
therefore they decided wider coverage was a good thing. It was a
parental thing and the child was found, unharmed thankfully.

It has become a bit controversial here over the last couple months when
we had three Amber alerts. One was around 4 pm, so that wasn't too bad.
A mother reported that her ex husband had taken the girl from school
without permission. It turned out to be a crock and no charges were laid
against him for his actions or her for the public mischief. Then we had
one about 11:45 at night and another at about 5 am.
 
A number of people were pissed off and called 911 to complain. Then
there was the rants and public shaming about them abusing 911, and
worse, about how rotten them must be to complain about something that
could save a child's life. Those to Alerts woke up millions of people,
many of whom live hundreds of miles away. No one in their right mind
would expect them to get dressed and go out looking. The information
could have been sent in a text.
 
Some suggested that the complainers were idiots and that they could turn
their phones off at night. Screw that. Some peoples are on call. Some
use their phones as alarm clocks. The alert system is also for natural
disasters. I would like to know if there tornado heading my way or there
has been a nuclear accident and fallout is heading my way. I can do
something to save myself. I should not have to turn off my phone in
order not to get tangled up in some family dispute 500 miles away.

I previously posted this recipe as a pesto, I have altered it slightly
to make a delicious salad dressing. A healthy one to boot.
 
Freshly grown basil about 2 cups equal amount of spinach ,
about a 1/2 cup of olive oil, about a 1/4 cup of freshly roasted
peanuts, few pinches of pepper... a few pinches of salt
Spun up in the blender for several minutes until smooth. add a few
table spoons of apple cider vinegar.. blend again to mix.
Taste add salt or pepper if needed.

Not at all, I am saving a lot of bucks by having cut the land line and
only having my cell phone.

titaniam dioxide is also a common ingredient in paint. It adds
covering power. Such a nice, all-in-one chemical. :-D

Certainly looks different that the typical maple syrup. Looks like
icing. I've never seen it here, but we do have latex paint with
titanium dioxide so I suppose I can just use that.

The odd thing here is if YOU know that answer. Paranoid often?

There are also people, such as myself, who try to eat more salt to
keep my blood pressure up. You're generalizing.

That's not killing unnecessarily, Bruce.
I eat what I kill.

True.... but hornets are just plain nasty and if you accidentally
disturb them they will sting. I can't take any chances after my
experience getting stung in the mouth, so I kill them on side. If I spot
a next on my property I will come back at night, give it a doze of wasp
and hornet bomb, then dig up the nest, throw some gas on it and set it
on fire.

>(chili, etc). I like some of them, but I do not think they are dried.
>When I worked in a cannery, everything was fresh. We did not cook beans.
 
>Why dry a bean only to can it? It's an extra step.
 
ALL beans are dried unless they are going to be sold as fresh
frozen,,, if not dried they will rot. drying is how beans are
preserved. Every can of beans at market were cooked from dried.
Why don't you know this, every five year old knows.
 
 
 
I jes added a can

You suspect right. All beans were originally fresh. ;)
 
I would assume that canned beans ARE processed immediately while
fresh. Makes no sense to me to dry them then rehydrate and cook
for canned. Certainly the evil food corporations would never do
that extra step.

Why not use it if it has the exact flavor and texture you're looking for?
You could spend a lot of time and money trying to duplicate it (and either
toss or miserably eat the failures), or you could just open the damned can.

I do that too but set a small ceramic plate on top as a lid to
hold in the steam. This is how I heat up/cook all frozen
vegetables.

My gardener brings his own lawn mower and it seems to do a fine job. I can't
see the point in mowing your own lawn (or trimming trees and hedges) unless
you enjoy the exercise.
 
I'd rather be making a pizza.

Never cheeseburgers. Your memory retention is lacking.
McD plain hamburgers on sale for 25cents each, I'm there.
Regular price about $1 each (or more now), no thanks.
