I bought them recently and returned them after one night. The battery didn't last even 2 hours and they kept disconnecting from my phone and turning off, but you can't just turn them back on, you have to take them out of your ear and put them into the case to turn them back on. So many design flaws IMO.

This sounds like the schools don't handle the payments for lunches. A third party does and as an electronic payment processor, they probably don't provide a physical address where a check can be received.

I think Minoxidil is the only thing proven to work. You can take it orally or apply it to the scalp via a serum or shampoo.

So true. My boss makes about a million a year and gets whiny whenever we deal with clients that make more than him. He has plenty of money but that will never buy the parental love that he didn't get as a child.

My conservative parents have also been complaining about the economy and their financial situation. In April they spent 4k to get a box at a baseball game and asked me for money to pay for it, citing that its a special spend to celebrate my dad's 60th birthday. Then last week I found out that they are going on a 16k eastern European river cruise this summer. Talk about temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

I'm the same. My mind is always churning. I'm getting evaluated for ADHD next week.

The map would be tough. If someone showed me the map and said, go to the kitchen, I would try remember, turn left then right then its around to the left. I would remember it in words, not visually.

Brown and pink dog...in my mind I see a hazy face of a poodle with fluffy pink ears. I can't see the full dog. I can't walk around the image and explore it more. Its just a hazy partial visual that flashes in my mind for a moment.

Be careful, I logged out for too long and forgot my password and they wanted a copy of my driver's license before letting me have access to my account.

I'd guess that regulations for earthquake safety make tall buildings very expensive to build. The only way it makes financial sense to build them is to put them in the most expensive areas and load the units with luxury finishes to increase profit. It's far more common to see 5 over 1s, and yes there is a lot of resistance to even those.

Yeah, I wasn't trying to give you a hard time, just sharing how drastically different housing markets can be. I could sell my house in California and buy a 400k house outright from the equity that has accumulated. Alot of middle class Californian are doing just that, selling their houses and buying in the south or midwest with cash. It's part of what is inflating your housing costs because your market is more affordable than mine. For comparison, the median houshold income in my city is 89k but the median house list price is 1 million, making your market more affordable and attractive for those that need some relief from inflation.

Those numbers mean nothing without knowing the local wages. In my neighborhood the lowest priced 800 sqft homes are 950k and one bedroom rent is $2400. So your area sounds like a killer deal.
