    Silver hit $20 oz briefly this morning.

    The excitement over silver making new recent highs is because of silver's low market price when compared to gold, which means it is more accessible to more individuals than gold. As to why we are drawn to precious metals, who knows. Historically, even before the markets, people were drawn to...

    Post your Gas Mileage : Calculated

    I think people underestimate how much fuel costs when it comes to MPG one can get with their vehicle. For most, it is around 20 MPG and 30 MPG, but still, a 20 MPG vehicle ends up paying 50% more than a 30 MPG vehicle for same distance. Here is a quick calculator:

    Question about weed spray

    I never had this problem. I never empty the weed spray tank sprayer when storing for the winter, but I do release the pressure after each use. Weed spray works best at certain temeratures. Perhaps you are applying when it is too cool? :unsure: And do you shake it before using?

    Incandescent bulbs

    If anyone is looking for LED deals, Lowe's store has GE Relax 60-Watt Equivalent LED for 88 cents each. But Lowe's website has them for triple the price. Hmm. And Costco also has 60-Watt Equivalent LED by a no-name brand priced at six for $5.

    There was a big explosion in Beirut Lebanon

    It is pretty obvious from that video that this was not a bomb. One has to be completely naive or have an agenda to claim it to be a bomb. :rolleyes:

    Incandescent bulbs

    I have it saved. Hmm, maybe I should throw most of it out and keep a few. Noticed a curious thing at The Home Depot. CFL lights cost double that of LED. Why are people still buying CFL lights? And why are they still making it?!

    Credit Card Fraud Alert

    Well, I can confirm that credit card companies do call (automated message), text, email, and finally block your card if they sense anything amiss. It happened to us when we were traveling out of state to visit a relative. Using card out of our local range was what triggered it.

    Are you noticing your aging

    I have family history of people succumbing to heart-related issues, so I try to cut off meat altogether. Some fish here and there.

    What products are you not switching from?

    Actually, I wouldn't try tea tree oil soaps. They can actually make your skin more dry. I don't know much about 'Awapuhi'. One fourth of Dove soap is moisturizer. I tried switching to Irish Spring back during the winter months, because I felt I could never get rid of the Dove soap residue...

    Honda dealership failure...looking for advice

    I agree 100%. Can you imagine the same guys doing "double O-ring" putting everything back together? Warranty is the way to go.
