It's high school. What does he need, a briefcase? A fancy pen? The only thing I could think of is a laptop, but he can buy that with the cash you give him.

I watched the first half. A pretty drab affair, and the two teams were pretty even. So happy to see Aston Villa qualify for the Champions League!

I am retiring in another year or two and have no plans to move. The house is paid off, I want to enjoy the things around me, and we have too many friends here. When winters get long, I expect we will travel and maybe rent somewhere warm for extended periods. 55+ living in a Florida or Arizona...

Kind of Blue is an all timer. Some of my other favorites are: Lester Young and Harry Edison - Pres and Sweets Stan Getz and the Oscar Peterson Trio Stan Getz and Joao Gilberto - Getz and Gilberto Vince Guaraldi Trio - A Charlie Brown Christmas

I'm with you. I find it very fake and depressing in a part of the world where there are so many incredible jaw dropping things to see and experience. No thanks.

I'm assuming one has to set up two separate Roth accounts - one for wife and one for me? And a Roth is not subject to capital gains? On a broader note, this market run up is surely going to result in another wave of retirements. Looking at my situation, my hope was to retire at 58 in a year...

My wife and I have birthdays 2 weeks apart (same age). Some friends of ours threw a 100th birthday party for the two of us at their house. BBQ, lots to drink, lots of our favorite people. It was a really fun night.

I've been painting our basement for the last month, and every time I go to the paint store, there's a gallon of Jets green paint just sitting there in the $5 bin. I came home last night and told the wife I was going to buy the gallon and paint a wall Jets green. She hesitated, then said "if...

"Every kiss begins with Kay" is a really creepy slogan.

Married 30 years. I always run alternate plans (not involving the wife) by her at the first opportunity. Her response is usually "No problem - Have fun." I then have to write it on the calendar and remind her about it 14 times. She informs me of her alternate plans about 30 minutes before she...

Put me in the camp of providing the organization with plenty of notice. I live in a small town and will continue to see the people I now work with in other settings later - I want to remain on good terms. 3-6 months seems about right, but I guess it depends upon the nature of the job. I also...

I have two boys (26, 28), one of whom is likely to get married soon. His g/f's family doesn't have much such I expect we'll cover much of the wedding cost. They are pretty frugal, but I like the idea of offering a number and then letting them budget around it to keep expectations in check. As...

Throw a brick through their kitchen window with a note attached inviting them for pizza and cards.

Styrofoam packing peanuts, and static electricity's effect on them.

Villa quit up 2-0. Their passing was atrocious and they were so slow. Looks like they have tired legs.

Real tree. We pay $10 for permit to cut one in the National Forest. In low snow years like this year, it's an easy walk but we have gone out wearing skis or snowshoes some years. I used to hate the up and downs of searching with my wife because she is pretty picky and indecisive, but in recent...

Final tally was 22(7SOG) to 2(2). Pretty dominant for a 1-0 win leaving Pep like this. Villa could've/should've scored at least 3 more, but Ederson made some top drawer saves. Arsenal next for Villa - will be a true test to see if Villa can keep their momentum coming off this high.

150. Our neighborhood gets hit hard. Lots of really good costumes and great energy. My only regret was saying "Nice sombrero!" to a girl who was dressed up as a mushroom and had made the outfit herself. I gave her extra candy, but the hurt look on her face is etched in my brain.

Instagram accounts for pets. "Oh look! What's Rover up to today? He's got a tennis ball in his mouth - What a silly boy!" Stop it.
