I can still remember the attic fan and window units before Dad remodeled and we got central air.....which was a HUGE DEAL - that was as life changing as getting cable and having more than 3 channels

Yea, we kinda spun off......

no worries

I used to go down Gulfway Drive and pick up coke bottles, I remember getting a nickel for some. Me and a buddy would do that about once a month and make a few dollars. Then that crying Indian came on TV, and hurt our income because people slowed down on the littering.😃

I'm 59 1/2........ And in a few months I will be 59 3/4 and at some point I'm going to be 59 15/16ths

My Mom died of Alzheimer's. That is a horrible disease.

I felt that....lol

I don't think people realize how scary it is having politics or an agenda in school. People are a product of their schooling and upbringing.

Yes, there are some really cool houses that are undervalued compared to the surrounding area. Most of your main insurance companies won't write home policies in PA, and the ones that do are twice what you would pay in Hardin County.

Again....the PPP loans were for anyone with 500 or less employees that met the qualifications....And I believe hotels with over 500 could qualify. EVEN PEOPLE WITH THE LAST NAME OF TRUMP

Banker here...... I probably did 150 -200 PPP loans. It was not walk in and walk out with money. You had to have previous records proving income, payroll, rent, etc.... 20% of the loan could be for rent expenses, the other 80% payroll. To be forgiven, you had to provide the receipts and upload them. You also could not terminate any employees. I had some customers that did not follow the procedures and they are having to pay back the loans. There was some fraud, people are being charged with fraud.....if there was fraud in this short term program, imagine the fraud in social security and unemployment, etc, GO DOGE You should know the difference between a PPP loan and a student loan, but just in case..... When my son signed his student loan, he signed a promissory note (agreement) to payback the loan at the agreed upon terms. He was given the money because he agreed he would pay it back. The PPP loans were also promissory notes that were signed in agreement to be forgiven if they met the criteria, and if they didn't, they agreed to pay it back. You cannot lump the 2 together because they were different.

Harvard is free to do what they want. He is not banning any speech. He is not jailing anyone for speech. He is just not sending money if they continue the hate. IMO, it is a private school, with a 3% admission rate and charges more than most people can afford. That does not sound like they had the Democrats in mind for the working people. It is a white and Asian school with only 6% black students. Seems to me this is one of those we have to be the opposite of Trump issues.......🤷‍♂️ Get a four year degree at Harvard or for the same money have your forever home in 4 years..... Based on the 2023-24 academic year, the estimated total cost of attendance for on-campus students at Harvard University is $86,705 per year. This includes tuition and fees, books and supplies, room and board, and other on-campus expenses. Over four years, this would amount to approximately $346,820. In comparison, the average cost for private school tuition and room and board in the U.S. is $60,420 a year (for 2023-24), according to CollegeData.com, totaling $241,680 for four years.

I actually love the location of PA.....I was born and raised here. I love the water and proximity to Houston/Galveston/New Orleans and Austin..... There are just too many things I don't like

If she does not answer, you can find her answer on MSNBC 🤣

"based on what it describes as lower taxes, quality health care, and an affordable cost of living." Taxes are not inexpensive....home prices are lower, which I guess makes out of pocket taxes lower, because no one wants to live in PA. I'm in PA, 1700 sq ft home, with a 3.5 car garage and under roof carport between house and garage, very large lot. This home in Lumberton would be $300ish, I may get 150K when I sell. There are several insurance companies that won't even insure homes in PA, but when you do find one, (Goosehead is great), they won't cover windstorm, your agent gets that from the state. I pay right under 4K a year to insure my home, including flood. The house has never flooded, but this is my childhood home and it has always had flood. You never know in PA when the pumps might not work......In Lumberton ) paid less that half of that for home insurance. FYI, Hardin county auto insurance is less than Jefferson county..... You add in the crime rate of PA...........not ideal for someone wanting to retire.......IMO oh, and if our healthcare is so good, when someone has a serious illness, why does everyone recommend going to Houston🤷‍♂️

I listened to a Harvard person on the news at lunch. He was claiming Trump was trying to take their first amendment rights...... People with half a brain can see he is not taking any rights away, only money. They can still teach whatever they want.

I got Murphy oil for 9 buck a share - That was a great investment......I should have sold when it was 40 lolk

It's going to be a roller coaster for several months until the trade stuff is worked out. It should be expected. I'm not worried

He is correct...... This entire "threat to democracy" is the biggest hoax. It plays to the weak minded, but is simply not true. No one is a trat to democracy. We have measures in place that prevent it. Honestly, I think the majority of folks realize it is political nonsense ,,,,,because if people truly believed it, Trump would not have gained support and won AGAIN.........

Tell that to Biden who created this problem. In this case, didn't he already have deportation orders?

Very good article.

Thank you for picking the 20% side instead of the rest of the country who thinks these people should not be released. 2026 is looking better and better

I think EVERYONE should get due process.......... BUT It is difficult for me to think someone who on purpose avoided laws and due process to come into this country illegally, should be awarded due process to remove him. He is a citizen of El Salvador and is home where he should stay.

Happy Easter!
