    Anyone ever have gallstones or have their gallbladder removed?

    Christmas 2014 I had a pain in my solar plexus that I had never experience before. I was at a friends house with my finace and we had a nice turkey, potato, peas, etc. kind of meal. Nothing greasy. So the pain lasted about 5 minutes and wasn’t too severe, probably 4/10. Fast forward...

    Board / Card Games

    I bought Lost Cities for me and my wife to play. Games take ~10 minutes each so you don't have to commit much time if you don't want to. It is very easy to learn and there is still quite a bit of strategy involved. She doesn't like risk type games or higher strategy, she just doesn't...

    Could you live without a microwave?

    I use my microwave daily. How would I heat up a can of soup? pot? That would take forever. I think people would start to eat more food cold instead of getting the oven or BBQ going.

    NYPD (going wrong way on 1-way street) hits parked SUV, arrests passenger

    SandEagle is dead remember! Man, I don't hate cops and am usually at least an advocate that they do good work but stories like this are against everything a cop is supposed to stand for.

    somebody left $20 on atm in deli, property of?

    If you take it to police, I'd make sure to get proper documents stating that the money was handed in by me and know when I could then claim it. I'd get the badge number of the officer taking it to make sure I have the info I need when claiming it.

    Speeding? OK to flash headlights now.

    I think if someone is speeding they should get a fine. Do I speed? Yes. It's a gamble we all take. Do I speed enough to cause public harm? No. Am I breaking the law? Yes. Do other people hurt people more by other crime? Yes. Should traffic laws be enforced? Yes.

    The Bible Series Bible-based movies - thoughts?

    I consider myself a practicing and devout follower of Jesus. I watched this series and it was interesting. The production value was very good. If you go through life looking for something to offend you, you will be. Take things for what they are, a representation of something else. It was...

    Things Required In Math Class I Find Retarded.

    In community college for my electronics engineering technology course we started with addition and subtraction. I thought it was a joke but I gave it a few months and I was being challenged again. Math was never my strong point but soon I was doing college level calculus. Stick with it.
