@Axtremus They typically meet in restaurants or brew houses, probably off-hours. I'd be surprised if they were charged for the space.

MIngle Meetups@mik That's disappointing.
I don't have the energy, but I think you can start your own, with your own rules...

Don't know if you saw my thread on C-SPAN's Ceasefire program. Might be of interest to you.https://wtf.coffee-room.com/topic/2830/c-span-s-ceasefire-program

Hey, how about this place? :-)I asked the free version of ChatGPT "who lives at ....". Its answer:
I can't provide information about property ownership or any other personal data like that. However, you can find out who owns a property by checking local property records, which are often available through the city or county's website. In Ann Arbor, you can use the Washtenaw County Property Lookup tool to access property details, including ownership.
Would you like help with finding the right website or steps to check this?

I assume the SLAT is Spousal Lifetime Access Trust. No, I didn't know what SLAT means without looking it up.

MIngle MeetupsIf you feel politically stuck in the middle between clowns to the left and jokers to the right, you’ve come to the perfect place! Inspired by Michael Smerconish’s The Mingle Project, audience members like yourself have organized local meetup groups to discuss hot topics and current events with people from all different backgrounds and points of view.
Listen to Michael speak with Bonnie Glushon, the organizer of the Mingle Meetup initiative for Smerconish.com, to learn more.

Introducing your new National Parks annual pass!@AdagioM said in Introducing your new National Parks annual pass!:
Does it cover so much that the card is no longer identifiable as what it needs to be?
From the article:
A California sticker manufacturer and former park ranger has offered to take on printing duties if McCarty becomes overwhelmed, she said, and others have reached out with various offers of support. As of this week, however, she has not heard from the NPS or any other governmental agency about her artistic civil disobedience. She added that if park rangers won’t accept the sticker-covered pass, people can simply apply the stickers to a clear credit card holder.
Here's her web page.

A mite late for holiday baking, but...Talk about an internet rabbit hole. I went to look up Morrow's Nut House after @adagiom mentioned it in the candy memories thread. There was an Oregon Live article about one of the Morrows re-opening the business online and also selling at a farmer's market around 2010. I think the business closed since then; link to online shop is dead.
Anyway...
There was also a link to this list of OL's 25 favorite Christmas cookie recipes. Some really good ones!
edit: No paywall version on Yahoo:
https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/articles/25-favorite-christmas-cookie-recipes-210041370.html
I've bookmarked a bunch. Some are cookies that I've made before, some I've seen recipes for but haven't made, and some were completely new to me.
Just a couple of days ago I ran across my Mom's recipe for rum balls and now I see the same recipe except made with bourbon in the OL recipes.
It's a sign. Time to make booze balls!!

Candy store memories@AndyD said in Candy store memories:
My favourites as a kid were called crispets which were also in the shape of a UFO and I'd buy a quarter. Crispy milk chocolate with coconut.
No longer available but I think 'Crispy Bits' made in Scotland are the same.Something like this?

I bought myself a Christmas presentWe gave up buying Christmas gifts decades ago but decided we'd splurge and order a 10" cast iron skillet from these guys:

I thought maybe this was a way to build some muscle. Of course buying an 8 lb weight would have been a more cost-effective way to go...

HIgh school scientists tackle Lyme testingA team of public high school students in Georgia faced some skepticism when they decided to try to come up with a way to detect Lyme disease earlier.
But the students at Lambert High School in suburban Atlanta, Georgia, pushed ahead with their idea, using the gene editing technology CRISPR, and took it to the iGEM competition, a sort of science Olympics, in Paris. iGEM stands for International Genetically Engineered Machine and the annual competition has been around for about 20 years.
Now, scientists say the students' groundbreaking work could be a major breakthrough if further testing pans out.

25th Amendment. Seriously.President Donald Trump’s handpicked board voted on Thursday to rename Washington’s leading performing arts center as the Trump-Kennedy Center, the White House said.
Nothing like tending to the important stuff. Website got changed yesterday. His name went on the building today.
The name change wasn't on the agenda for the board, and people who objected to the change were muted out on the video call. A unanimous vote! This is like Putin winning an election with 99% of the vote...
And let's not forget the congratulations sent by Press Secretary Leavitt:
Congratulations to President Donald J. Trump, and likewise, congratulations to President Kennedy, because this will be a truly great team long into the future! The building will no doubt attain new levels of success and grandeur.
This is all a joke, right? We're going to wake up and realize it was just some really strange dream, right?

Hmmmm....The White House says it’s looking into how a YouTube creator’s livestream appeared to take over a White House website.
The livestream sharing commentary on investing appeared for at least eight minutes late Thursday on whitehouse.gov/live, where the White House usually streams live video of the president speaking.
It’s unclear if the White House website was hacked or if the video was linked accidentally by someone in the government.
