The first person to respond will then announce a "Topic" for discussion*. It can be as unclear, ambiguous and vague as you'd like it. Being of interest to the masses is a plus! Being informative is not necessary.


Remember the "Topic" you choose can be in any form. One or several words or phrase form. Please highlight your choice of topic in some manner.

* No politics or other ugly topics please.


Thanks to all for your contributions, large or small!

Roofers finally got to our roof today.

Hurray for your roof!




I worry about all the batteries we go through in a year. You would think after decades of their existence that there would be a good way to dispose of them.

Thank you! One day and it's finished too. I have a bag full of batteries and those new type bulbs waiting for a trip to a disposal site.

With the killing they make on batteries they should have return to factory or recycle facility postage included.
