Doug has stolen my fire.

He was good. Had an album of his singing. There were some John Prine songs on it. They were super, but very depressing as John Prine's work was. Not something to listen to often. He was a lucky guy because he married Rita Coolidge. Saw somewhere in the last year that he had dementia of some sort.

Really? You don't think any of this is political?

@DougG Lol.

A somewhat similar issue occurs in the US where some state boundaries are defined by river courses. Big Al

You're welcome, Mik. Glad to hear it.

@Big_Al Glad you spotted this post, Dol. If you should find yourself in this area visiting the store, I hope we can finally meet. Big Al

I agree with Steve. And if I had this apartment in this building in this neighborhood with these views I'd decorate it myself.

It is about time. Did that with Tinkertoys and Erector sets long ago. Then came Legos Big boys enjoy toys also.

I enjoyed that. The comments section was interesting. Seems like politics has to enter every conversation at some point. The black keys on the Steinway look a little beat up. I'm not sure what would have caused that. Side note: the concertmaster is the spitting image of one of my former bosses. Big Al

@pique said in Question about leasing vs buying a car: We just sold our 2006 Honda CRV with 200k miles on it. The reason we sold it is because I found the seats to be absolutely crippling. That became my #1 criteria in car shopping--the comfort and support of the seats. Same here. Hondas are great cars in many respects but the seats are like sitting on flat boards. The five hour drive up to Door County in my Mom's Accord used to leave my back in bad shape. Plus in my case, there's not enough thigh support; I'm 5'10". Toyota and Subaru seats, OTOH, are very comfy for me.

North Carolina must a lot of extra money.
