    The handwriting of everyday

    I used to take pride in my handwriting, but that's all gone now, even as my tools have improved. I have my Blackwing pencils and a nice fountain pen (though my ex swiped the Parker), but all I ever write now is notes while interviewing people on the phone, and that's all rapid scribble with a...

    Call of Duty Video Game, WWII Etc. Anyone Play?

    I'm trying my way through Call of Duty WWII for Xbox One. It's quite realistic, and for me, difficult. We've played a lot of the Assassin's Creed series.

    This "sucks"... the Hoover And Other Vintage Vacuum Cleaners

    And now, finally, all the chimes rang at once: A complete set of tools, in the box, located nearby to reduce shipping costs, and offered at a good price. Whole set came in at $35. eBay "guaranteed shipping" arrived three days late, so I got the shipping refunded. Tools are like new wth hardly...

    Alright... Alright! What's Covid-19 making you binge watch????

    We've been alternating between old episodes of ER (Hulu, we're up to season five), and playing Assassin's Creed: Odyssey (level 33). I bought Call of Duty WWII but haven't been able to get three yards across the beach at Normandy in three weeks.

    Do you think there could be a second Great Depression?

    Seasonal Flu: Humans have herd immunity, meaning we've all seen versions of it for as long as our species has been here. Coronavirus: Novel (new). It jumped from another species and mutated to enable infecting humans. Not a single human had immunity at the outset, and it will take a very long...

    Alright... Alright! What's Covid-19 making you binge watch????

    We started Bates Motel again, but then found Dead Files. Right up our alley and I don't know how we missed 12 SEASONS.

    Do you think there could be a second Great Depression?

    Ohio: Restaurants and bars, gyms, libraries, churches, gatherings of more than 50, all banned or closed. My wife is a chef at a high-end restaurant so we're in trouble. I've also lost about 1/3 of my income from all this.

    Coronavirus: What Vintage Skills Can Help Prepare for a Potential Pandemic?

    VINTAGE, in keeping with @PrettySquareGal 's original post: Of the times I use public restrooms, and that's almost daily, I would say at least 60% of the men go sailing out of there, regardless of what they've just left behind, without so much as a hand rinse. Remember the reports recently...
