There is quite a bit that benefits from a proper scheduled system.
The start time depends on the weight of the leg of lamb, because
the cooking time varys with the weight and you normally want to
have it ready to eat at a particular time. So its handy to just punch
in the weight and have the system remind you when to start the leg.
Then its handy to have it tell you when to boost the oven temp and
start the roast potatoes. And when the pototoes need to be turned.
And when its time to start the peas and corn and gravy.
You're so stupid that you cant grasp that its convenient
to automate those reminders ? Your problem.

RFID technology has come a long way. Perhaps labeling each package with one
would make keeping track of the inventory a lot easier.

Answering yourself as you dig toward China, eh?
Making it up as you go along.
The rest of your nonsense tossed in the disposal where your
computer-aided food should go before it affronts a human nose.
Computer telling you when to turn potatoes. For Christ's sake.
I suppose that computer's teeth tells you when pasta is al dente too.
What a non-cooking nerd you are. Don't try to deny it.
Stick to throwing a shrimp on the barbie so you just screw up a good

Maybe for Rod. I don't need a computer to keep track of and cook my
food. My wife does that with her smart head.
Doubt the average consumer would want to pay for his stupidity either.
Of course he'll weigh in with his own face-saving BS, and maybe
mention his computerized shopping list.
My wife is the chef in a corporate cafeteria feeding 2-300 entrees
each day with always changing menus, and finds it trivial to keep
track of the food with simple penned sticker labeling.
If Rod wasn't so addled he'd figure out how to do that for his
lonesome.
But he's not a cook, just a computer fanatic, so I give him a pass.
There's always somebody who wants to "improve" things by making them
500% more costly to gain a 30% loss in efficiency.
But it's amusing to hear how the computer prepares a meal for him.
You're a dangerous thinker. I'll warn my wife to look out for their
suppliers to push RFID chips and readers. Proprietary readers no
doubt. It could happen. But they could only justify it as preventing
waste by not letting food expire, which is already prevented by
rotation at her place.

Heh. Both DH and I work at home, and between the shared office, my
workspace, and the 3 cats molting in the heat, I have all the crap I can
handle :)
It helps that I've had the "do you love it, need it, or does it make you
money" theory on all possessions for many, many years. If I can't answer
with at least one "yes", out it goes. At least once a year we have a car
full of stuff to cart off to the Salvie. I didn't even know other people
used this concept until I watched an episode of "Hoarders" on tv.
Apparently, that's the motto of the professional organizer. Who knew? My
feeling is just because I have space for it doesn't mean I need to keep it.

Has anyone here been denied Medicare test reimbursements that were

mounting a claim defense against these denials. They gave no reason, just
DENIED!. Looking for either answers to the question or resource urls to

It's been years since we went on a cruise, so my experience is probably
dated. But in those days, tipping was expected (not actually required -
they didn't make you walk the plank if you didn't). The help like your
cabin steward, the waitpeople in the dining room, didn't get paid by the
cruise line, their only pay was tips. People generally tipped on the last
night - you'd hand over an envelope with your tip in it. The cruise line
advised of "recommended" amounts - as I recall they weren't outrageous. As
I recall, our tipping was pretty much confined to three people - the cabin
steward, the dining room waiter, and the busboy. Neither of us are big
drinkers, we didn't buy any alcohol on the ship, so didn't deal with people
like bartenders or waitstaff in the bars aboard ship. We did bring a bottle
with us to have a drink before dinner in our cabin.
Again in those days, the best package deals were available through travel
agents. I don't see how it could hurt to visit a couple local agents and
seeing what they can offer. If you're really flexible, you could cruise
"standby" - a ship will have a few accommodations unsold and with 24 hour
notice, you could end up paying a rock bottom price.
Cruises have different itineraries and therefore different ports of call.
Different ports have different shore excursions available, and of course the
prices for various excursions varied all over the place.
Cruise lines also varied as to their target market - some specialize in a
young crowd that tends to party all night, others to a more mature set, and
sometimes there are special interest cruises - singles, astronomy buffs,
whatever.
A nice cabin is, well, nice, but you probably won't spend a lot of time in
the cabin, so maybe you can trim a corner or two by opting for a cheaper
cabin.
Entertainment on board was mostly no extra cost - games by the pool, stuff
like bingo and "horse racing" (those were pay to play), movies, a show every
night the ship wasn't in port, dancing, and mountains of food available just
about 24 hours a day. There were two seatings for meals and shows - from my
limited experience, I'd advise opting for the second seating, it was a
little less crowded, especially for the after dinner show in the theater.

Christian sheep are OK with it but advertising to children is
restricted in Scandinavia because... hey, this is just common sense,
they make consumers out of kids who also grow fat and stupid...

I've recently gotten spam text messages on my pre-paid T-Mobile account, which
cost me a nickel each. Outrageous. I phoned tech support. The first guy was
barely able to speak English and hung up on me after 4 minutes. The second guy
was OK and set my account up so that I would NOT receive marketing messages.
What a crappy system. You're assumed to WANT to pay for spam unless you call
and tell them different.
I shouldn't complain, though. It costs me $10/year now and I'll probably never
use up my minutes. Still...

You need only three tools: WD-40, duct tape and a hammer. If it doesn't
move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use duct tape.
If you can't fix it with a hammer you've got an electrical problem.
