Duh, I coulda told them this. I garden alone but still, it relieves stress for sure,both on the mind and wallet.

Most of my garden is grass.
I do have a small planter with some herbs. My tomato plant keeps producing even if I forget about it. Let’s face it. I’m just too old to be under 95* sun to get stuff I can get in an air conditioned market. 🤣😈
This afternoon I met one of my friends for lunch at Red Lobster. We each decided what we wanted to order and were totally gobsmacked when our server informed us that a standard salad was now considered a "premium side" and was an additional charge of $1.99. I mean, $2.00 is nothing, it's the principle that a salad is considered a premium side, for real!? That suited me because I had already set my mind and tastebuds on ordering fresh broccoli, which by the was was not a premium side!
My friend did order the "ALL YOU CAN EAT SHRIMP" and to start with she chose skewered shrimp as well as "Walt's Catch". I recall it was a strange name because she had to ask exactly what Walt's Catch was. When the server brought the initial order it was 2 skewers of nicely seasoned shrimp, 6 per skewer as well as 6 Walt's Catch shrimp which was merely 6 butterflied and lightly batterered then fried shrimp. The server returned and she asked for shrimp scampi and that order had 8 shrimp. The third time he returned, she wanted to try the linguine and shrimp and I can'tremember if she said she had 6 or 8 shrimp in that serving. When the server returned the final time, I was surprised that she didn't ask for something different. I was worried that I might need a wagon or a dolly to roll her out on. She was given two containers for the things she didn't finish and was taking home. There were 4 cheddar biscuits and the other container was the various shrimp and linguine.
I was actually amazed at the number of shrimp that were brought each time. My guess is that she was served 30 plus shrimp. Me, I ordered salmon and it was delicious!
That is a good deal. I remember when Red Lobster had their bisque soup on a carved out bread bun. I don’t know why they discontinued that.
I love shrimp. My favorite way is "peel-and-eat”. We love to go to the Black Point Ocean Grill in Black Point Marina on the weekends.
I literally just get scampi,I think the last time I went,2 years ago,I got 6 servings of scampi? and another kind to, but eating salad and other stuff,I was full when I left.
I soak alot of the juice up into those cheese biscuits to!
Gee, phart, you really do enjoy your shrimp! You and your pops deserve an good restaurant meal from time to time so load yourselves into your vehicle and drive your "happy asses" to town.
He won't accompany you if you go to Red Lobster or Mexican restaurants? Why, doesn't he enjoy that type of cuisine? My guess is that when you say he will eat at certain "fish camps", you are saying he does like fish but perhaps only from certain places.
Nice to hear that your pops has a lady friend to spend time with. Your dad needs to ask her if she has a single niece, younger single neighbor or is aware of a younger single hairstylist, grocery cashier, etc, that she could hook you up with for a DOUBLE DATE!
NOPE, her family is Not a bunch I want to be around. The term redneck would be used by most people, to me they are a disgrace to the term.
trash is more like it. She is a nice lady,keeps a clean home,tried to raise her sons right,but they turned to shit and the rest of the bunch aint much better.
I avoid that bunch like a plague.
Uh, it's only 48 frigid fricken degrees out and it's 09:40-ish. Today the high temperature will not even reach 60. I'm going to have to wear some "woolies".
How wasteful people are? How wasteful manufacturers are! Couldn't these clothes be given to third world countries? Who knew this was going on!? What I found strange is that the clothes are manufactured in Bangladesh and China and cannot be sent to regular/municipal landfills because the garments are not biodegradable and they "often contain chemical products". WTF are we buying and wearing? Maybe sending these types of clothes to third world countries isn't an option, either! What in the world! 😵💫
Chile IS a third world country with a strong economy and progressive people. This is a business venture by a local entrepreneur. I, too, can’t believe these clothes are not used to help poor countries. The still-growing mountain of discarded or unworn clothes — manufactured in Bangladesh or China and sent to retail stores in the US, Europe, and Asia — are brought to Chile when they aren't sold. It looks to me we contribute to this.
The clothes can't be sent to municipal landfills because they aren't biodegradable and often contain chemical products, Franklin Zepeda, the founder of EcoFibra, a company that tries to reuse the textiles by making insulation panels, told the AFP.

Now I’m going to worry what chemicals I’m wearing. Nearly 85% of all textiles go to dumps every year, and fashion production consumes vast amounts of water and pollutes rivers and streams. I was amazed that 85% of all textiles go to the dump every year.
I guess I contribute indirectly because I have not bought new clothes in Many years except for under ware and I always get the cheapest multipack.
I go the good will or uniform rental company and buy used clothing.
Cheaper by far and better quality if you get uniforms because they are made to last.
Nothing wrong with that. Charlie buys Wallymart six packs too and in the last few years, he refuses to wear anything else except BJ's cheap jeans and t-shirts unless we have to go somewhere special.
Oh, WOW! Zillions of fans loved her music for multiple decades and what a talented, energetic, gorgeous woman.... She died peacefully after a "long illness". I don't recall reading anything about any "illness" long or otherwise.
She was "mature" by today's standards however she has/had "staying power". There's not many female recordings artists like Tina Turner, Cher, Aretha Franklin, now deceased, Madonna, Celine Dion, there might be 1 or 2 I forgot, that have longevity like these women. We will see in a couple of years whether Taylor Swift has what it takes to being iconic.
Well it would appear that the democrats now have a high rating with the aryan nation as a u haul truck crashes into the barrier around the White House the driver gets out of the truck and neatly places a nazi flag beside the truck then waits to be arrested
Way to go democrats you now have the attention of one of the largest hate groups in the country
Kandula told Secret Service agents that he’d flown from St. Louis on a one-way ticket that night after months of planning. He wanted to “get to the White House, seize power, and be put in charge of the nation,” and he said he would “kill the president, if that’s what I have to do,”

The far right, and I do mean THE FAR RIGHT, is really scraping the bottom of the proverbial barrel. HAHAHA, can you imagine? 🤣🤣🤣😈
I saw that awhile ago! That was cool as shit! Roped his ass right there on the hwy!
It appeared that the cow jumped the guard rail when the video I watched stopped.
Oh, my heaven, I didn't know that so I watched the video again! Apparently, the cow did jump the guardrail and was headed onto the other side of I-75, you can see in the last nanosecond that the cow is up on the guardrail. In an interview with Rhonda Walker of local television affiliate, WDIV, the skilled cowboy, Ricky Littlejohn (that sounds like a cowboy's name) confirms that the cow did jump the guardrail!
Here's the video/interview that I saw later in day.
Where is a male supposed to put a tampon?
When will people wake up and realize the real waste here is the fact they are putting tampon dispensers in MALE bathrooms?
Put them in the girls bathrooms and the "gender neutrals" and leave the males alone.
Males and men are already getting physically weaker and something is going to have to change or there will be no one left that can do physical labor

You just don’t get it, do you. You are one of the most racist, homophobic, and misinformed people I know. Whites commit more acts of crime by 4 to 1 than blacks. And much more than other races.
Oh really, I would like to see the charts you get that from.
And besides, you of course took the question in a negative context, if you are correct and I am wrong, you would be vindicated, if I am right and you are wrong then you will get mad and call me terrible names right?
This is hilarious. Another democratic organization starting shit before an election. Memorial Day is coming this weekend. Why don't you Google how many black people will be in South Beach over the weekend. I guarantee you they're not worried about no travel warning.🤣 Cat you should know better than anyone you live here. How many years have the lifeguards went on strike because they're tired of saving black people who can't swim over Memorial Day weekend. I call bullshit on a travel warning.
I may be on the interstate that some of these folks are using to get down there or back home, So it is a something I need to know about.
Blacks are only about 13% of the total population, but the jail cells don't lie
There’s lots of reasons for that, but, that’s for another discussion. The total number of crimes committed by race, though, is as I’ve posted. I don’t know of many crimes happening on I95 doing 70MPH

Miami Memorial Day is one of the biggest parties in the country on this holiday weekend. If you're planning to spend your Memorial Day weekend 2023 in Miami Beach, be prepared for parties both hectic and wild. Nightclubs fill up as the beautiful people line up to see and be seen, and famous entertainers in the hip-hop scene—DJs, singers, rappers, and dancers—perform at various venues around town. The biggest event on Memorial Day Weekend in Miami Beach is Urban Beach Week, a huge conglomeration of parties, concerts and other events celebrating African-American hip-hop culture.
Urban Beach Week is one of the most anticipated events in Miami. This celebration of hip-hop music and its culture draws thousands of visitors every year for Miami Memorial Day, particularly people from the black community. Visitors to Miami at this time should book hotels and other accommodation ahead of time, as about a quarter million visitors swarm to the city for this party. Many cheap package deals can be found that include hotels as well as airfare. Entertainers such as Diddy and Chris Brown headline events at nightclubs and concert venues.
Other parties take place at the beach and on boats on the water. Be careful if participating in the Urban Beach Week festivities—with this many visitors out to have a good time, things are bound to get rowdy, and the police are out en masse to prevent disturbances. The events of Urban Beach Week are centered on the South Beach Art Deco District. --------------------------------------- added after 14 minutes
I know what happens in the Memorial Day weekend. Yes, there’s a lot of blacks at this event. It’s been going for many years. So what? If you are complaining about the yearly bash, let me remind you that until a few years ago, Ft Lauderdale had Spring Break every year. I used to frequent the Elbow Room when younger, especially during Spring Break. WHITE college students used to wreck Ft Lauderdale Beach and it’s surrounds. The city made it unwelcome and eventually few would come. Now South Beach has something similar.
What does this have to do with the NAACP ISSUING A WARNING TO BLACKS have to do with it? South Florida is an easy place for blacks, but, how about Cooper City? Or the huge number of Old Florida Towns up in central and north Florida where blacks, Latins, and non-straights are not welcomed. And don’t say it’s not so. I think I’ve lived or been associated with Florida for over 70 yrs and know it better than you.
That's funny that you pick out Cooper City for your white town. Cooper City 🤣 Maybe you don't know this area as good as you think. Travel warning was issued for black folks traveling into Florida, all of Florida correct? I call bullshit. And Urban weekend proves it. Not sure what your missing. The travel warning was issued for all of FLORIDA, not specific towns. Again just another political plee to out DeSantis as he is such a Racist.
Ok Cooper City doesn't have a police department. The city is under the Broward Sheriff's Department. Always has been. And that country club is called "Round Up" and that's in my town of Davie. What else you got?
Well, he worked the Cooper City area. So what? Are you sure the Roundup is in Davie? Davie is no black santuary either. --------------------------------------- added after 3 minutes
Ok CC54, what nerve did I hit? You want to prove you are a racist or a want to kiss DeSantis' ass? Surely you don't support a Nazi like him.
