Got a nice message from PP this morning. All data access had been
disabled and I won't be bled by data usage. I have not tested to see if
data is still there, just read his message. He did something else for
me because when I followed his instructions to connect the phone number
to the new online account I set up...I DID get the SMS message on the
phone with the phone's activation code to put in the webpage to complete
the transaction.

Then, looking around inside the new account, I found I could turn off
SMS and Voicemail from the online account page, securing my phone from
those nonsense charges to the account balance.

You CAN turn it all off and just have a PHONE to make PHONE CALLS,
nothing else....at least so far.....

SMS has to be running on the phone so PP can send you the setup
activation code to connect that phone number to the webpage account
online.....then you can dump it for good.

(BikePortland.org) - I have been hearing all about how
Chris Balish's book, "How to Live Well Without Owning a
Car" (Amazon.com: http://xrl.us/WithoutCar ), is the
foremost manual on how to live car-free no matter where you
live. I am here to tell you that it is true..

Balish starts by laying out exactly how much car ownership
is costing you, and our society as a whole. I found that
angle, as opposed to the "Save the Earth" approach, to be
oddly refreshing. Let's be honest, most people care a hell
of a lot more about their bank account than their carbon
footprint. I sold my car, so I was already rid of that
cost, but was still stunned by how much a car truly costs..

Boy, are you a clueless weasel. I WORK AT HOME, which you would know,
if you could read, since it was right in my post. I live in a tiny 200-
year-old farmhouse because it's all I can afford, and it's nearly paid
for. If I sold it tomorrow I would get enough to pay rent on a studio
apt. in town for maybe 5 years. Then what? Also, I am self-employed
and I need space for my industrial equipment which I wouldn't have in
a studio apt. Oh, and exactly HOW THE HELL are "you" subsidizing my
ownership of a 12 year old car I bought 3 years ago and drive less
than 2k miles a year? You, sir, are an ass. PLONK!

Hey, thanks. You're a prince. I think I'll get an SUV the next time
I need a car.

Cultural attitudes towards rain differ across the world. In the
largely temperate Europe, rain metaphorically has a sad and negative
connotation — reflected in childrens rhymes like Rain Rain Go Away —
in contrast to the bright and happy sun.

Then quit. Imagine if people could leave their shitty jobs that pay
shitty wages because they have portable health insurance. Guess what
would happen? Employers would raise wages knowing that they can't give
the "BUT WE PROVIDE HEALTH BENEFITS" excuse, because the market would
demand it, since the good employees could now go to higher paying
jobs, or start their own businesses.

Like I said - Quit. I wouldn't stay in a job that wouldn't raise pay
when the business now is not required to pay for your health
insurance.

So, who cares if your insurance is dumped. Find new insurance in the
private market - quit getting subsidized by your employer.Obviously
you don't like socialized medicine, so the free market health
insurance industry should be perfect for you. Let me know how much it
costs per month once you're out on your own, then compare it with how
much your taxes would go up under single payer. Good luck with that.

Oh, BTW, the current bills are NOT SINGLE PAYER. They are shit, just
like what we have now.

Ha ha, ha. So funny, it's pathetic. You should get out of America more
often. I've been all over the world and when I talk to "dem furriners"
they are MORE THAN CONTENT with their healthcare and lives. If
anyone's country's economy is collapsing it's the US. Norway,
Australia, France, Canada, etc. etc are doing fine and had more growth
than the US has had for years.

Obama and Congress do have socialized medicine. You pay for it. I
guess you don't want your own tax money to go to you. Oh well. I
prefer not to be a masochist and would like the same health benefits
the government employees get, since it is my tax money paying for it.

I don't know about school loans. I assume a 529 plan supplemented by
pay-as-you-go.

He says to always get a 15 year fixed mortgage ("don't get a 30 year
mortgage and say you'll pay it off in 15; ain't gonna happen") I
guess I'm a loser for qualifying for a 15 year loan but getting a 20,
then paid it off in 120 months.

I usually agree with most of what he says, like his method of paying
off your debts, etc, but he sure can be obnoxious about it. (At least
he's not as irritating as Suze Orman.) The thing he does that chaps
me the most is assumes a 12% annual return on stock mutual funds. The
annualized rate of return on the S&P 500 for the past 10 years is
actually negative, and most mutual funds haven't even kept up with the
indexes.

I don't know about this particular link, but Microsoft does have free
Visual Studio software available. It is the express edition, which
means you can't do everything with it, but it is plenty good enough to
get started learning programming. You can find it by going to the
Microsoft site. It is a free download, all you have to do is register.

Hang the small stuff on a line or a rack to dry. Take the big stuff
(that you don't wash all that often anyway) to the laundromat and pay
50¢ to use their dryer.

You can dry the big stuff on a rack as well. It just takes planning. When
my kids were little, I had 2 drying racks and an outside line. We heated
with wood, so I had the added drying energy there, but in general, I rarely
if ever used my dryer.

===I suppose there are potatoes and tomatoes that would be blight
resistance.
I know I have fruit trees that are disease resistance, so it follows--
I believe the problem with the Irish famine, was --planting just one type of
potato.
I wonder if the heirloom would be resistant. I'll google Father Tom, I have
never seen this
variety. We have purple tomatoes, Russian heirloom, Kids at the Highschool
have a greenhouse.
We old people get a discount. They try different varieties, purple, being
one. I like the yellow
less acid tomato, because I eat so many, I start itching at the end of the
season.!
Anyway, the blight spores didn't get to my plants, they did get to the Amish
farm down the
road from me, sad.
Now, I got these tote bags for one dollar each. You will need a piece of a
sponge to hold the plant in when
you put the plant in the hole in the bottom of the bag, the sponge will hold
the plant from falling out, if you are
making upside down plants. Just put a slit in the sponge, slide plant in.
Now, this may be the reason
that helped with the blight, I filled the bag with purchased soil? These
bags dry out fast, must water frequently
Next time, I'm putting some plastic around part of the bag. You will be
amazed how many feet these plant
grow, so hang them high. For fungus, on some of the apple trees, and rose
bushes, (black spots)I use baking soda in the water hose apparatus.
I use a lot of salt, vinegar, soda, alcohol for various reasons, inside and
out. Sometimes the old ways, are the best way, I have found. I'm becoming
my grandmother and grandfather!
Gardening is better for the health than any pill that has been made
I'll make more comments later, it's a warm day, a plus for the North, so I
have to get back to work
I noticed the mention of nectarines! How lucky are you! Are these dwarf
trees, how many years to
maturity? The green gage plum, I planted 20 years ago and the bing cherry
succumed to the brutal winter,
global warming never came to us.

Yes there are.

Nope, no one ever had just one variety in that era.

In fact there were TWO THOUSAND varietys of apples.

> I wonder if the heirloom would be resistant.

Generally they arent. The resistant varietys have generally been bred for that relatively recently.

> I'll google Father Tom, I have never seen this variety.

Looks like it hasnt made it out of Australia. Its
a hybrid so you cant even just buy some seeds.

> We have purple tomatoes, Russian heirloom, Kids at the Highschool have a greenhouse.

Yeah, the one I infected planted one of those. He's into the exotic stuff.

Yeah, I can get them for free. My other neighbour whose

I'd use potting mix, easier to get.

I'd automate that.

I only ever knew one of my grandparents.

My dad did get into making marmalade, for the same reason,
couldnt find any of the commercial marmalade they liked as much.

They're dead now so I cant ask him what he did about the labor
intensive cutting up of the fruit. I only did 1Kg of limes on the first
batch, complete pain in the arse to cut them up with sharp knife.

I've since thought of just slicing them and putting the slices
into one of those plunger style Tupperware onion choppers.
You can get plastic things that slice oranges etc. I've got
the chopper already for onions so will try slicing by hand
and see if that works.

The other alternative is obviously a food processor, but its much
more of a gamble price wise since you need a decent one to have
any real chance of it not burning out, the limes are pretty solid.

OK.

4 years apparently.

Yeah, hasnt happened here either.

Guess again. I never ever said that its always breezy when I line dry, fool.

Lets go thru this very very slowly for the terminally stupid.

My clothes are not stiff and boardy when I line dry them on days with no wind at all.

If you run a humidifier in the winter like many in the cold north, that effect
may be neutralized.

It never fails.

Every time this subject comes up there's always some whiner who pops
up with this "I can't use public transit" BS. It's as if you believe
that you are a tree, and you are forced to grow wherever Chance has
placed your seed. You live where you live because you CHOSE to live
there; if properly motivated, you could just as easily CHOOSE to live
someplace else.

One really good motivator is COST. You can afford to live in your
little Country Estate because the rest of us subsidize your use of
personal automobiles. If you had to pay those costs all by yourself,
you'd quickly decide to move to a more cost-effective location where -
incidentally - you COULD use public transit, walk to grocery stores,
bike to work, etc.

Making money online does not necessarily have to be difficult. We have
all come across individuals offering us opportunities to make money
online from the comfort of our own homes. Is this possible though? can
we work a few hours a week and make enough money online to live a
comfortable life? or are we purely wasting our time and efforts even
attempting to succeed at this.

Have you read the amazing claims that you can make money online? Can
you really make money online though! I wanted to find out, I was at
breaking point, Could I make money online? could anyone make money
online?

I searched intensely into the market, to find out if it was actually
possible make money online and make a lot of it.

How to Choose the Right Web Hosting Company


You have made up your mind that you will buy a domain name (or
several) and take out web hosting from a web hosting provider.

First some considerations about the domain name(s)

Domain names do not really have anything to do with web hosting and
can be registered independently from the web hosting package. There
are advantages if you have domain name and web hosting separate. For
example, if the web hosting company you selected fails to provide a
good service, all you need to do is find a better web hosting company
and change the domain name settings. If you have domain name and web
hosting with the same company and the company ceases trading, the last
thing they think about is your web hosting or domain name. By having
them separate, you are lowering the risk.

Got a nice message from PP this morning. All data access had been
disabled and I won't be bled by data usage. I have not tested to see if
data is still there, just read his message. He did something else for
me because when I followed his instructions to connect the phone number
to the new online account I set up...I DID get the SMS message on the
phone with the phone's activation code to put in the webpage to complete
the transaction.

Then, looking around inside the new account, I found I could turn off
SMS and Voicemail from the online account page, securing my phone from
those nonsense charges to the account balance.

You CAN turn it all off and just have a PHONE to make PHONE CALLS,
nothing else....at least so far.....

SMS has to be running on the phone so PP can send you the setup
activation code to connect that phone number to the webpage account
online.....then you can dump it for good.
