  • Nice big house in NE Ohio
    MikM Mik

    Altogether pretty tasteful, although I'd turn one of the garages into a guest house. The round windows on the patio(?) are questionable. The media area with those faux gothic beams(?) are a little much but I could live with them, That particular room is a bit too large to feel comfortable in I think. But man, the 61 acres? bring it.

  • Using flooring material as chair mat??
    MikM Mik

    I'd just get a real chair mat. The flooring will look like it does not belong, while the chair mats just kind of go away.

    Wild stuff. No pun intended. Really liked the bats.

    Maybe people should not be so picky about things that really don't matter much.

  • Universal Cancer Vaccine
    MikM Mik

    It’s a matter of time. Probably not my lifetime but I doubt my daughter will succumb to cancer. I’m good with that. (I’m already 45 years older that I thought I would ever be.)

    Waiting for a quote on putting basement back together, house was painted early this month, huge window will be replaced 9/18 and we made big progress in the garage yesterday. We will get both cars in this winter!

    It is spectacular. Out on the deck now and it’s a little cool.

    Yes, and sometimes it hits pop culture stuff I have little knowledge of. Got them all today though.

  • New NYT game
    MikM Mik

    I go through most of them in the morning with coffee to get my brain moving. Worldle, Wordle, Waffle, Connections, Strands, Letterboxed, Mini, Pips, Phrasle, Jumble.

  • Chairman Powell's Jackson Hole remarks
    MikM Mik

    Not so good for retirees it seems, although I am one. Still, we're not heavy on interest income.

    Indeed. Charles has been what I always thought he would be, lackluster.

  • Is the time ripe for the progressive movement?
    MikM Mik

    @jon-nyc said in Is the time ripe for the progressive movement?:

    I think the Abundance Democrats are on to something - this is getting to the root of pocketbook issues that voters care about. Younger voters more than we old timers.

    I'm not aware of this movement. More info?

  • Is the time ripe for the progressive movement?
    MikM Mik

    The "progressive values" as we know them today are anathema to the majority of voters. They bet on a losing horse there and then put all of their energies into attacking Trump even after he left office. Then they tried to pose as the defenders of democracy. I see no sign that they have changed so I think they will continue to be fringe.

  • Why would a party buy a property for 4 times it's assessed value?

    @ShiroKuro said in Why would a party buy a property for 4 times it's assessed value?:

    Among other details here, this

    The buyer, Nongfu Spring, is China's biggest packaged water supplier.

    seems a bit disconcerting.

    Of all our resources, fresh water should be the most protected.
