I wonder if it has something to do with the year. Ours are from 2004 and still going strong. Not to mention, actually using enough water to do a good job.

I'd like to try that idea. I'm used to the rigid black deer fence that you can see right through, but it's a process and expense to install.

The fluffy netting has never worked well for me, as...

I have had great success with tomatoes in small barrels. They have a center hole, which is great for inserting a strong cylindrical stake. You can always add stakes against the outside edge and tie...

No expertise here, but could the thermometer really be reading celsius? Just looked it up, and that would mean 35-36 Fahrenheit.

Maybe you have another thermometer to cross-check with?

We have moved over and over and our expectations are pretty realistic, but Huff was a nightmare for us.

I had all the imaging 20 years ago and was told to live with it. It sounded like a low-pitched motor.

Then, a few months later, I was grousing about it to my chiropractor, and he said it was...

I would think that individual fruits/vegetables are handled way more in a store than other things, with people picking them up and putting them back.

Plus, maybe it reduces the pesticide residue a...

Antop?

They were promoting these on QVC the other day. Apparently, the signal is coming from somewhere in ME, per the page where you put in your address. Has anyone tried it?

Tried to put in a link,...

I would argue that it was. The cheesy "Cheers" reference is only supporting the notion that some diners have had, i.e., that you need to be a resident and regular to feel welcome. If you want to...

Maybe that's the main idea - if nothing has gone wrong, it's great. I'm just pointing out that when something did, in our case, it was nightmarish to fix it, and both we and the craftsman were...

You are equating SS and Medicare, which makes no sense. An old person who lives awhile will certainly earn more in SS benefits than he ever paid in, but Medicare isn't an entitlement in the sense...

You did, in fact say no matter what was eaten or what time of day. That's pretty unequivocal and authoritative in tone. I'm just pointing out that there are many more nuances than that if you truly...

This is your opinion and should be presented as such. Many medical conditions require a more informed and complex approach.

If you recycle, you may not have as much in bags as you expect. We just use regular trash bags and double them up. Plastic, glass, and paper in cardboard boxes. It's pretty easy.
